The one thing to do is to be full of faith and the power of the Spirit and faithfully and tear lessly witness unto Him and His sal- vation and His coming again until we are called out of the body or up in the air to meet Him. The power of Stephen in overcoming those who disputed with him (verse 10) was in accordance with our Lord’s assurance in Luke :11, 15, “I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.” Text of the Lesson, Acts vi, 1- 7â€"Mom- cry Verses, 2, 3-Golclon Text, Gal. vi, 2â€"Commontary Prepared by Rev.

Increase or numbers. even in 01%, I l l l l dinary church membership. does not‘. always tend to increase or even con- tinuance of peace. especially if it. means pleasing more people, as is‘ often the case. though it should not be so. Pleasing people is not the business of the preacher or the session or the vestry or the committee; not pleasing men. but God. like the apostles in the > last lesson. In our lesson, while the‘. number of the disciples was multiplied, i troubles mnltipled also. for some were ’ neglected or felt that they were in 5 the daily ministration. Today some' 1 people are not happy if they think the ’ pastor seems to neglect them in his pastoral calls or in not noticing them after church or on the street, and no committee can rectify this. l SUNDAY SBHOOL The twelve decided, wisely or un- wisely, certainly for their own com~ tort. that they could not attend to this business of serving tables, but must continue to give themselves to prayer and Bible study and teaching the Word. When compared with some other lines of service that of prayer and teaching would be to many a de- lightful preference. but ordinary serv- ice must be attended to also and often requires more grace. The preacher’s wife may need more grace and pa- tience for the housekeeping than he A committee of seven Spirit filled men of honest report was chosen for this special ministry, the first two of whom we shall become better ac- quainted with as we go on in our studies. Stephen. the first of the sev- en. occupies the prominent place in this chapter and the next, while Philip is the most prominent in chapter viii. We do not hear of Peter again until chapter viii. 14, and that is the last mention of John in the Acts except in xii, 2. where he is mentioned as the brother of James, who was killed with the sword. It is possible that some others may have wished that they had been among those chosen as apostleS. but here are two of seven seemingly ordinary men honored above some of the apostles. it is well to remember that the Spirit gives to every one sever- ally as He will and to be content to fill any place be its service small or great. it is written of Stephen that he was a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost. full of faith and power; that he did great wonders and miracles among the peOple. and they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake (verses 5. 8. 10); also that by the word of God the number of the disciples in Jerusalem multiplied greatly, and a great com- pany of the priests were obedient to the faith (verse 7). In chapter v, 24. we heard the high priest and others wondering where unto this movement would grow, and we still see it grow. in: even unto this our day, but it does does for the preaching. but any kind of service needs a special anointing of the Holy Spirit. This and similar assurances. such an Ex. iv, 12; Jer. i, 7-9: John xiv, 13, 14; xv, 7, are all for us today if we will stand for Him as Stephen did, for His eyes are still looking for hearts that are whole toward Him, that He may hold strongly with them (II Chron. xvi, 9, margin). If we stand for Him and with Him, as Peter and John and Stephen did. we must expect to know something of the hatred of the adver- sary as they did, for we cannot know the power of His resurrection without knowing also the fellowship of His sun‘erings (Phil. iii, 10). Those who could not gulnsay nor resist the truth of God in the power of the Spirit by the mouth of Stephen could hire men to falsely accuse Stephen and make him out a liar and a dangerous man to be about. ' Major B. K. Richardson, M. D. of Toronto. who some tine ago otter- !ed himself for overseas service {either as a medical or artillery iofiicer, was about two weeks ago 'authorized by General Logie to Iorganize and take charge of a 'new battery at once, with his Inewly chosen officers. Recruiting Ewas begun, and in a little over a week upwards of 240 men had of- It‘ered themselves. being about 100 over strength. The number re- ;quired were selected from the ibest of the men and are reported fengaging in their work with great enthusiasm, already taking a good lead on the three older batteries. ‘The new battery is known, as the 48th Depot Battery and will train at Exhibition Camp, Toronto. probably till next fall, when Major Richardson expects to go with his battery. The Major, who is the ,iwell-known son of Mr. M. K. Rich- éardson, of this place, has been in !medical practice in the city for a inumber of years, but will have to :2ive it up for the present. At the funeral service of the late Mrs. Christoe in the Methodist church last week, the pastor, Rev. Mr. Dudgeon, improved the oc- casion with an excellent sermon from the appropriate text; “Thou N shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn com- eth m in its season."-1Job. 5. 26. “The blessedness of a ripe life,” was the theme of the sermon Which concluded with fitting application to the life of the aged Christian lady and member of the church who had passed away. Dr. Mur- ray, R. G. Holland, and H. Sullivan, sang, “Crossing the Bar” and “Old Jordan’s waves I do not fear,” The pulpit and pew of the deceaS- ed was appropriately draped, and floral tributes were given by the Methodist and Presbyterian ladies.
