Sunday School Lesson PETER PREACHES TO GENTILES Sunday, March 10.—Acts 10:1 to 11:18; 15:6-11. Golden Text God is no repeseter of persons, but in every nation he that fe.areth Him anU worketh right­ eousness is accepted with Him. (Acts 10:34-35.) f There is only one way to.be saved and that is by believing on Jesus Christ as one’s personal Saviour. But how are men going to believe in Christ unless they are told about Him? “How shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they bo sent?” (Ro­ mans 10:14-15.) Paul asks these question© after having declared that “W'hosaever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be sav­ ed.” Our lesson tells us bow a man and his household heard about Christ ,and believed on Him, because >a .preached was sent to them. The man was Cornelius of Caesar­ ea, a Roman centurion or captain of a. company of one hundred men. He was a religious man who “feare'd God with all his house,” a man of large charities, and a man of power. But religion never saved any one, neither did prayer. Christ alone can save. Cornelius needed Christ. How was his need to be met? An angel of God appeared and told him to send to Joppa for a man named Simon Peter, living in a house by the seaside with another . man named Simon a tanner. God’© direc­ tions, when they need to be, are very 'detailed and explicit. This Simon Peter, said the angel, would tell Cornelius what he ought to do. Cornelius lost no time in sending two of his household servants with a soldier whom he .knew intimately and trusted. As they neared Joppa, Peter was about to observe his usual time of prayer, He ‘'fell into a trance,” and God gave him a vision: a vessel let down from heaven, like a great sheet with all manner of beasts and creep­ ings thing and fowls, Then a voice spoke: "Rise, Peter; kill >and eat.” Among the beasts and birds before Peter were those of which a Jew was forbidden to eat, by the law of God, because classed as unclean. (Leviti­ cus II. tells of these very plainly as part of the divine law given by God to Moses for the Israelites—-and Peter was an Israelite. Peter answered: "Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean.” But Peter made a great mistake just here, as Dr. Graham Scroggie has pointed, out. If Peter said "Lord” he ought not to say, "Not iso.” If he said, "Not so,” he could not honestly say “Lord.” When Christ is truly our Lord, we do not argue or disa­ gree with anything He tells us to do. If we argue or disagree, we are de­ nying His Lordship over us. The answer came: “What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.” Peter was being taught the lesson hard for the Jews to learn at first, that their own Mesiah, having ful­ filled the Old Testament law of God had the Divine authority to com­ mand Hi© people in new and 'differ­ ent ways from those that were re­ quired under the old' dispensation. Let u© not mae the mistake 'how­ ever of thinking that Peter or the Jews had a primitive or mistaken idea that certain meats were clean and others unclean. This was net the Jews’ "mistaken” notion; it was Go'd’s own Jaw. But when God ushered in the dispensation of grace by the death -and resurrection of Hi© own Son, then God could set aside, as he did, certain laws that were of vital impbrtance until after Christ had delivered men from the .law and brought them under grace. While Peter was ©orely puzzled as to the meaning of his vision, the men from Cornelius arrived. He was sent for, and the Holy Spirit said to him that he was to go with these men, "doubting nothing, for I have sent them.” The messengers told Peter about Cornelius and the 'heavenly message that had come to him from an angel of God. 'So Peter welcomed the men, gave them hospitable lodging over­ night, and the next1 day started with them from Jbppa toi Caesarea. Then came the meeting between Peter and Cornelius, and the Roman, centurion told his story. Cornelius ended his respectful message with the words; "Now therefore are we all here present before God to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.” Gladly Peter told them then about his Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. He told of Christ’s mighty miracles of power an'd, healing; His rejection by the Jews; His crucifictib.n and His resurrection. He declared that God had ordained His Son to be the Judge of the living and the dead, and that all the prophets witness "that through His name wh'osoever believeth in Him shall receive re­ mission of sins.” As Peter was speaking these word© and Cornelius and his household were listening eagerly, evidently be­ lieving from their hearts all that was said, the miracle happened. “The Holy Ghost1 fell on all them which heard the word,” and they spolke with tongues and magnified God. This group of Gentiles were saved by faith in the name of Jesus; they received the Holy Spirit, .as the dis­ ciples and 'other Jewish believer© had. And now Peter gladly gave command that they should be bap- tizted in the name of God. Peter was God’s chosen instrument to begin the giving of the Gospel tot the Gentiles, which means the whole world. And when, soon after, Jew­ ish believers criticized .and even con­ demned Peter for thus mingling with the Gentiles, he only had to tell his story. And the believing Jews, when they had heard this, "'held their peace, and glorified God, say­ ing: Then 'hath God also tol t'he Gen­ tiles granted repentance unto life.” A few years later the momentous Council at Jerusalem was held, when the Church, under the direction an'd guidance of the Holy Spirit, settled -officially once for all that neither, Jews or Gentiles were henceforth under the law of Moses, but were ■ rved alone "through the grace fof the Lord Jesus Christ.” LODGE CELEBRATED ITS DOTH ANNIVERSARY BAYFIELD—Friday evening, L. Q. L. No. 24, celebrated their 90th anniversary with a euchre and dance in the town hall. The lodge is said to be the oldest in Canada.

DON’T USE PINS OR FASTENERS IN LETTERS iThe postoffice department is ask­ ing citizens not to use large pins or fasteners in letters. A message in this regard reads as follows: "Large pins or fasteners of an ab­ normal size should never be used in letters since they cause great diffi­ culty in running the envelope© thro’ the cancelling machine in t'he post office. When such a difficulty arises the letters must be cancelled by hand this ©lows up t'he work, caus­ ing unnecessary delay .and inconven­ ience. "Alway use small pins or fasten­ er© and speed up delivery.” It’s a Kidney Warning When the Back Starts to Ache Do you ever feel that you simply can’t go any further; that you must have rest from that lame and aching back; relief from that constant dead- tired feeling; freedom from those stabbing, darting pains through the small of the back.
