And G=>d gave Israel, through Mose$,
strict laws that should keep them sep

and idolatry of other nations.
Let us never fall into the mistake*
therefore, of saying—as some do-—
that Israel was narrow' and bigoted.1
and egotistical in setting herself apart
from other nations. Tt is true that
Israel fell into many sins, in spite of
all that God did to keep her true to
Himself; and among other sins she
doubtless became proud and “super
ior” in attitude toward others. But
the laws for this nation’s separation
from the rest of the world were di
vine laws, not man-made, and it was.
vital that they should be obeyed.
And this must be taken into account
as we study our lesson with the vision
and command that came to Peter*
Peter, as a Jew, had been trained in
the Old Testament law of Moses,
which was God’s law. Among other
things, God had forbidden His pe'ople
to eat certain meats; a long list of
such unclean and forbidden foods is.
given in Leviticus II.
One day, Peter, going to the house
top to pray, and becoming conscious
of keen hunger, fell into a trance and
“saw heaven opened, and a certain
vessel descending unto him,” in which
were “all manner of four-footed
beasts of the earth, and wild beasts,,
and creeping things, and fowls of the
air.” There came a voice: “Rise, Pet
er! Kill and eat!” Peter’s reply came
“Not so, Lord; for I have never eat
en anything that is common or un
clean.” In answer came the voice
again from heaven: “What God hath
cleansed, that call not thou common.”
Was Peter wrong, bigoted, fanat
ical, to speak of these meats as utt* .
clean? Not at all; Peter was simply
obeying the law
Israel had been
up to this time.
But God was
teach Israel that, because of the death
and resurrection of Israel’s Messiah,
Jestis Christ, the Mosaic law had been
fulfilled, and the newly born Church
of Christ, consisting of both Jews
and Gentiles who believed in Christ,
was no longer “under the law, but
under grace.” (Rom. 6:14).
Peter learned his lesson. And when,
that very day, a Roman centurion,
Cornelius, sent messengers to Peter
asking for help on the way to salva
tion, Peter gladly went and preached
Christ to them, saying: “Of a truth
1 perceive that God is no respecter of
persons.”
Little by little God taught the apos
tles, who were believing Jews, that it
was no longer necessary, or God’s
will, that the ceremonial details of
the Mosaic law should be kept, but
that the way of approach to God for
all men, both Jews and Gentiles, was
by faith alone in the shed blood,
death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ
as Israel’s Messiah and the Saviour
of the world. So Paul wrote later:
“For I am not ashamed of the Gos
pel of Christ: for it is the power of
God unto salvation to everyone that
believeth; to the Jew first, and also
to the Greek.” ,
God’s Son, Christ, was to fog

No one who reads the Bible intel
ligently would ever suppose that the
Gospel was not intended for the
whole world. The need is universal;
the cure is universal. “For all have
sinned and come short of the glory of
God,” and “the wages of sin is death.”
Therefore, all men need salvation and
life. And “the gift of God is eternal
life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
There is no other way of salvation or
life. “Neither is there salvat:
any other; there is none other
under heaven, given among
whereby we must be saved.”
Our Golden Text, which Martin
Luther called “The Little Gospel,”
makes inescapably plain the universal
ity of the love of God and His pro
vision
But God had planned, from the
foundation of the world, to meet this
need of all men through a single cho
sen race or nation, set apart by Him
self for that purpose. That nation
was, and is, Israel, whom God calls
the chosen people. When God called
Abraham out of a heathen land to
become the father of this chosen peo
ple, He made a series of promises to
Abraham, one of which was “And in
thee shall all families of the earth be
blessed.” (Gen. 12:3.) There -was
