The gifts of God can- not be bought, nor does a true mes- ; senger of Christ ever seek any honor ' or glory for himself. for the Lord Je- sus never sought His own will nor His own glory and told the people that they could not believe unless they sought honor from God only (John v, 30, 44; vi. 38; viii. 50).

Acts viii. 4-17. Memory Verses, 5. Bâ€"Golden Text. Acts viii, 30, l. c.â€"Commentary Pro- pared by Rev. D. M. Steal-n3. The persecution of the saints. which began with the murder of Stephen. con- tinued under Saul as a leader or at least a very active persecutor. for he is said to have entered every house and committed men and women to prison. The persecution was so great that it is said that all the believers. except the apostles, were scattered abroad through Judea and Samaria. but they went everywhere preaching the word. and thus God made the wrath of man to praise llim (verses 1-4; Ps. lxxvi, llh. Philip. the second of the seven Spirit tilled men who were chosen to serve tables. now comes to the front as a preacher and is the prominent worker in.the rest of this chapter. First we see him preaching Christ in the city of Samaria and working miracles. the people giving heed with one accord so that there was great joy in that city, many men and women believing the words of Philip concerning Jesus Christ and the king dom of'God and confessing the same by baptism (verses 5-8. 12). We must cease from men and see no man save Jesus only (Isa. ii, 22; Mark ix, 8). When Peter and John had help ed the believers in Samaria they also preached the word of the Lord in many Samaritan villages as they journeyed back to Jerusalem (14 to 17 and 25). The Loni Jesus had said before His ascension that when they received the power of the Holy Spirit they would be His witnesses not only in Jerusalem and Samaria, but unto the uttermost part of the earth (Acts 1, 8). The first part was being fulfilled, but some of the ends of the earth have not heard yet after nearly 1.900 years. How great is His patience! In the power of God. manifest in the words and works of the apostles and evangelists, we have seen something of the inter- est of heaven in the work of giving the good news to men. We have also seen the ministry of angels in taking Peter and John out of prison and send- ing them to preach in the temple (chapter v, 19, 20). and now, while Philip is busy in the midst of this great work in Samaria, a messenger from heaven is sent to him to tell him to leave it all and go away down to the desert road from Jerusalem to Gas, but seemingly without giving any reason as to why he should do There was a man in Samaria who had been bewltching and deceiving the people by sorcery, drawing people to himself as a great man. but when he saw greater works wrought by Philip be naturally Hecame interested and professed himself a believer and was baptized. But Peter and John, having come from Jerusalem to help in the Did ever a busy preacher or the gos- pel receive such a strange command? There did not seem to be any reason or common sense in it, but rather an Interference with a great soul saving work. Might not Philip seem Justified in saying, as Nehemiah once did. “I am doing a great work, so that i cannot come down?" (Neh. vi. 3). It was an evil spirit who was seeking Nehemiah, but it was the risen Christ who sent His angel to Philip because he saw a man of Ethiopia returningtrom Jerusalem with. out having heard the gospel. although the apostles were at Jerusalem. 1 see two or or three important things here -the necessity of trying the spirits to see whether they are of God (I John iv, 1-3), the necessity of always mak- mg piain the way of life in Christ lest some hungry seeking soul may go away without knowing how to be sav- ed and the necessity of prompt obedi- ence when God speaks. no matter how unreasonable it may seem to us. We are glad to read that I‘hilip arose and went lverse '27). If he had any committee to consult he would prob- ably have been hindered: but, like Samuel. he was a man of God and had an ear for God and a willing heart. It is certainly most interesting to see this traveler. this treasurer of the queen of Ethiopia. reading the book of Isaiah as he journeyed and to be Just zu‘the place which told of a suf- fering Messiah, which we call Isa. mi. 7. 8. when a stranger approached the chariot. and. hearing the words being read (for he was evidently reading or being read to aloud). he asked. "Under- standest thou what thou readest ‘3" Then followed the invitation to Philip to ride and to explain the Scripture. and we pee a heart opened to receive Jesus Christ as Saviour and Messiah. a desire and readiness to confess Him in baptism. and a truly happy man went on his way rejoicing. having found in his chariot, by the worO of God. what he had not found in Jerusalem. The Spir- it of the Lord. who controlled Phflip Neroeo 29. 39L carried him to Anna. and he went on Minx everywhere. suiLY SUNDAY’S SERMON Some time ago I was startled by halt; this question flame out upon in; ,rom the Leadlines ot a daily news- paper: "Who Was Jesus?" Well, let us try to find out who He as trcm some of the people who Zimd wi.e-: he was here in the flesh. and w..o :11 t him face to face. The first I will question are a strong 1.: .11 and his wife, and so to them 1 {Jill say: "W; 0 was Jesus?" Both the’r faces brighten, and they '1) 1.1 eagerly ex._1;1im, “Why, He came t; 0.1‘ ‘-.‘;ddi. g, 11,11,131} we were only 1v 0: and unknown peasants, and tsrned t..e Water into wine for us, so khat we had as much good cheer as 1- we hw been rich." 3.21:1 trorn the \ountless other homes ‘: 53 co ..e 3Zmliar testimony that Jesus .zas a guest at the wedding and a it e:.d ever a.terward, who repeated t ...e and again the miracle of turning ater into wine for them. Next I see a father, a lordly man. azd with hinr there walks a noble youth or frank, open face. The next witness 1 would like to call is a woman; a matron who 11.18 silver in her ham, but her face is peacetul, and has a look of happy COIltuIlt. Let the ask her the goat question “Who was Jesus?" and at the name a great light transfigures her as she says with tears of joy in her eyes: "Why, sir, it was Jesus who brought my son again to He when he was dead, and all was so dark and de‘sohte in my poor heart. The boy was 3.1 I had, but one day he was brought. home very ill and in three days he was dead. “The time came for his burial and we were taking his poor body out to the place of the dead and when we 1131 almost come to the grave we met a large company, and a. man came [or- ward who looked upon me with great compassion and said, ‘Wtep not.‘ 0h ild. “Then he came and touched the b er and said: ‘Young man, 1 say unto the . aflse!’ Then he that was dead sat up and began to speak, and then h; was restored to me and we returnel to our home with great joy. “And. sir. that was Jesus Who gave me back my boy, and my son who was dead is alive again. became one 0'? His most earnest disciples tron that hour." Who then was Jesus? It was Jesus who wrought all the great and mighty works we have been considering. It was Jesus who had compassion on the multitude, who wept over Jerusalem and at the grave of Lazarus. It was Jesus who never turned a deaf ear to the cry of the needy who sought His help. It ‘was Jesus who never litted His hand except in blessing and what He did while here in the flesh He is still doing spiritually in a thousandtoid greater sense all over the world, for He in the changeless Christ, who is the lame yesterday, to-day and tor-l 6V0? more.

Told by 8in Sunday A certain wealthy family returning home late one night discovered that a burglar had rifled their silver-chest of all its contents. The drawers were pulled from the buffet and their con- tents scattered on the boar. The table linen was disarranged, the din- ing room was in general disorder. In the average watch the balance wheel vibrates 300 times a. minute, 18,000 times each hour, 432,000 times 1 day. and 157,788,000 times a. your.

The black finger prints on the marble bust told the story. The burglar was unable to commit the theft with even a marble Christ looking at him, and had turned the face toward the wall. May I not hope that you man and women wil‘. show at least the tender sensibilities of this burglar! “Who Was Jesuc?"
