Why should not the children of
God, bound together by the same
spiritual bond of fellowship, try to
bear the burdens of their spiritual
brothers and sisters in Christ? Je-
sus "came to seek and to SaVO that
which is lost." Yet some of us act
as if a church member who is not
always a, perfect member must be ex-
pelled from the church felloWship.
When a minister does wrong or the
finger of scaralal points at the cleri-
cal broadcloth, we say: . "Out. with
him from the pulpit." Away with
him! Away! Away!" When a
church official is weak or indiscreet,
we proceed to deprive him of his
churchly offiee. We have no toler-
ance for any wrong -doing, no dispo-
sition to allow for the force of his
temptation. Ah, that is not Paul's
way; that is not Christ's. "Bear
ye one another's burden" means that
church members have a right to look
for their chief help and rescue from
their own religious. brothers and sis-
ters.
Lastly, "Bear ye one attother'a
burdens"' means that ev ery one
should try • in a manful, womanly,
Christian fashion to bear his own
burdens. We are very apt to think
that our own troubles ave heavier to
bear than any other, person's trou-
bles. But if we wore allowed, as in
the old legend, to go to the plain of
affliction and deposit there our own
sorrows awl were uompelled instead

Like Moses leading Israel or build-
ing the tabernacha, or like 'David
giving Solomon the plans for the
temple, or like Noah building tho
ark, they have no say in the mattes.,
but are wholly under the guidaoce
and coutrol of the Holy Spirit.
5. And when they were at Salamis
they preached the word of God in
the synagogues of the Jews.
Salamis was at the end of Cyprus
nearest the Selencia, while Paphos
of the next verso was at tbe western
end. Their mission was by the word
of God in the power of the Spirit to
proclaim the good news concerning
Jesus Christ, and at once they set
about it, their regular estate= being
to begin With the Jews (Rom. i, 16;
Acts iii, 26; xiii, 46).
6. And when: they had gone
through the isle unto Paphos they
found a certain sorcerer, a false pro-
phet, a Jew, whose name was Bar -
Jesus.
