Dr. Llnscott For the In ternational Newspaper Bible Study Club. October 3, 1909. (Copyright, 1909, bjr Rev. T. 8. Llnscott, D.D.) Paul a Prisoner The Arrest. Acts xxi:17 to xxii:29. Golden Text Thou therefore en dure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ 2 Tim. 2-3. Verses 17-19 Why Is It that there Is no class of people who so love each other, and rejoice In each other's fel lowship, as real earnest Christiana? Why did the Christians at Jerusa lem receive Paul so gladly? Paul told them about the wonderful things which God had wrought through his ministry among the Gen tiles. Should Christians always tell each other of the victories of their faith and works, or Is It liable to en gender pride and look like boasting? Verses 20-22 Does a good man al ways "Glorify God" at the success of others? What, either r.mong men or angels. Is the greatest cause for joy? (Sep Luke 15:7.) What Is It a sign of, when a person criticises or Is not glad when he learns of the goodness of another? Could a Christian, either then or now, be fully lrd of the Holy Spirit, if at the me time guided by, or "Zeal ous of the law?" In bridging the two dispensations, is It likely that God, so to speak, winked at the Apostle?, trvine to graft the law of Moseg Iri to Christianity, or was it God's plan that Jewish Christians should still keep the law? Ia It likely that even James and the elders at Jerusalem knew of the full liberty of Christ's gospel, or that "the law" was o be abandoned? (See Gal. v: 1-6. Heh. vlii:8-13 et scq.i Verses 23-26 Did James and the elders give Paul good advice In this matter of the vow, and shaving their heads, and can you conceive. It as possible that they were directed by God In the advice they gave? Did Paul do a wise thing to join with these four men In the matt3r of the vow, and what he must have known to be a useless ceremony In connection therewith? Paul in one place states In substince that he became all things to all men that he might win men to Christ. How far can we carry out that p ln ciple without being guilty of decep tion? (See 1 Cor. ix:20.) Verses 27-2S What Is the difference between a Christian, who, from pre judice, spenks evil of another Christ Ian and those Jews who spoke falsely of Paul? Verses 20-30 Should we ever form an opinion or ppread a rumor from mere appearances? Which generally raises the more excitement and why: a rumor of some thing very good, or of something very bad about a man? Verses 32-40 What Is it in human nature which makes one class or race, or political party or religious body, so cruel against another, class, or race, or political party or religious body, when their passions get stirred? (This question must be answered in writing by members of the club.) Chap, xxil: 1-5 Ought the fact that Paul had once been one of themselves, and had changed to be a Christian, from convictions of duty to God, to have plvpn him favor with ClnA faatin and rensonahle men? ! Verses 6-21 U the narration of our personal Christian experience a duty, and is It an effectual way to preach the gospel to sinners, and a help to believers? Here Is a man with hatred In his heart for Jesus, on a mission of perse cution to Jesus' followers; on the road he sees (Da great light from heaven; (2) he Is stricken to the ground; (3) he , .lesiix wini ue ih; o) Jesus answers Dig questions; (6) those with him saw the light but heard not the voice; (7) he asks Jesus what he shall do; (8) Jesus told him to go on to Damascus and he should there get full Instructions; (! he Is blind and led by the hand to Damascus; (10) Ananias restores his sight and gives him Instruction what he must do; (11) he Is baptized. Now what are the most Btrlklng features .In this experience of Paul's conversion? Verses 22-29 Did Paul's experience stir their anger because they did not believe hla testimony or because they thought It was true and that it was likely to cause his release by the Romans?
