However, it was profitable unto them" (v 20). The no part of Paul's desire to rescue for himself some fragment of their loyalty while the body, of Christ was being torn with schism. The Corinthian Church's struggle is refreshing because there is yet no- thing fixed and ingrown about this infant heresy. Their hearts were not yet hardened. They: still believed in Christ. They had not yet come to speak evil of "that way" in de- fence of their positions (v 9), It is the manifestation of a fullness of life that we witness thee, and not the defence of something dead and in - trenched, - the self-satisfied hypoc- risy of the scribes and pharisees. The Israelitism of the Synagogue was of this latter sort. It also resembles' the German, the British,' the pre- revolutionary Russian, and sometimes the 'denominational' Israelitism of our day. • We need not be surprised, there- fore, that in the Synagogue at Ephesus Paul's dispute soon centred about the question of the Kingdom of God (v 8). From other writings we gather that Paul would contend somewhat as follows, "Outside the Kingdom of Jesus Christ there is no Kingdom at all -that is, no valid and final safeguard against this canon- izing: of hire lis a Saint, this mystic- ism, this 'here -worship', is when we Fallow Paul's own summary of the Gospel to divorce us from all Paul- i inism.

They might -well be employed !to summarize, without introducing (the controversial element of the "Acts of the Apostles," the. doctrine of the freedom by which we all have access unto God in Christ Jesus. Paul has fallen into the bands of the enemy. He writes to Ephesus, not that he might find an audience for a bitterness against a people whom, at least twice before, he hadshaken off, as the dust from his garments (e.g. eh 18:6), saying, 'I turn to the Gentiles,' but rather, his words are full of a mighty praise to God that there are no more "strangers and for- eigners." Paul laboured, "beyond all other of the Apostles, to add to our confession of Jesus as the Christ of God the assertion, "I believe in the Holy Catholic Church."
