',Paul rea'elhed 'Ephesus on his third- mis'siona'ry journey he met Ap- pollo?s, a brilliant young soholar from Alexandria. Alpol'ids had 'come to Epb-, ,esus some 'months eanl'ier-'and had (gone to the ,chum* on 'Sunday, .where they :asked him to .prea'nh. He preach- ed re'a hed such a wonderful sermon that some people from Corinth, who were in the 'congre'ga'tion that day, decided right 'there and then that Apollas Would just be the right, mai. to take Faul''s •place 'in 'Co'rinith. As soon as :the !s'ervi'ce was over they convlinced' tAlpollos that€ he ought to go to Cor- inth, Priscilla .and Aquila were 'at the church, boo, and they -took Apollos home for 'dinner, talked aver his "th'eolo'gy," corrected some Of his mis- taken views, and 'then recofnlinended 'him .to the 'church at Corinth. lAlt •Corinth the ch'u'rch wa's'orawded to hear 'the new preacher! . The :Jews came, too, and began to argue, but d'n open debate Apollo's had them on the run all the time. Of course he 'did things' a little differently dram Paul, and the small :souled :members of the church began to nlyake c'ampamilsons and take sides. Before Apo1i t realiz- ed what was !happening, the church was split. Alt once,'he resigned and re- turned to Ephesus, where he met Paul, -and they became -close friends, Paul remained in Ephesus nearly three years, preaching and teaching, sending missionaries' out to the ,neigh- boring cities and towns, and taking such little trips as he t+"as .able to work in with his busy program. The tro'u'ble in !Galatia, 'Qwhere the "Jadaisers" were saying that Paul's gospel was not true, etc.)' was being duplicated everywhere in the churches organized by Paul, even in Corinth and -in Rama where Paul had not yet been. This greatly troubled Paul. Then, too, in the churches there faction's began to ap- pear, 'disorders, a Is beg - P pear, and some were following the form of the !Christian faith, but ,with- out love. I•t was because of ithis that 'hie wrote that class'i'cal nuasterp'iece on. (Love (1' Cor, 13). In spite oif bhe'Judaislers, or per- haps'because of them, {Paul was very anxious :to keep his, promise to re- member the poor in the .church at Jer- usalem. !Perhaps if he would send, or take, a large .gift "from _the 'gentiles to the Jews it might quiet .the suspicions of his enemies in Jerusalem and help the advance of the brotherhood of be- lievers. So with each letter, he sent his personal request .for the "collec- ti•on," and to each missionary he gave directions concerning the gifts. Paul had very little' time for this extra' work: He was really 'Bishop" with a large 'gro'u'p . of missionaries under his direction -and there 'Mas no "mission fund" to draw 'frotn, 'S'o, if 1 interpret aright, iP'aul (IKagawa- like) organized a !tent -making h dustry in Ephesus, ,and used the profits to support his mission work, 'Fie seas able to give only a few hours each morning to the factory work, 'for •he Mad retied -a gym'nas'ium to be used as a school for religious in- struction and debates. Paul was "on the air" from 1'1' atm. to 4 p.m. every day for nearly two years. The people of leisure gathered at the 'gym" for athletic contests, for .bathing, etc., and to listen in alt the sch'oal. ,(IIt will be a surprise for our hard-pressed students to -day to knew ,that theword "school" comes from the Greek word which means "leisure"). The success of this venture surprised even Paul Paul was .mare than a teac'her, He worked mira'c'les. So many cures were effected, that people brought hand- kerchiefs for IPaui to touch -then hur- ried home to their sick, laid the hand- kerc'h'ief on the sick, -and there was another m'irac'le! There was a great deal of magic in those days and the magicians ,thought Paul's power was just another form of magic and. that his success was be- cause he had .a new name,. Jesus, to conj'u're with, IAanang the magic workers o'F Eph- esus were sevens sons' of lScera, a Jewish 'hi'g'h priest. Th ey did not be- lieve in Jesus, but they hoped to ben- efit by th•e new name: So when two of these mem called on .a 'sick man to cast .otat an evil spirit, they used the name of Jesus, and of P'auh, in their incantations. The sick man looked up wisely, -'he knew he was being deceit/ ed•l-and cried "Je'st's' I know, and Paul I Icnaw, 'but Who are you?" then he leaped up and overpowered bhe two sons of Scera, and used small violence that they barely esoaped with their lives. The story 'spread like wild fire' Some smiled -then hid .their s'mi'le in awe. A great respect for the name of - the Lord swept aver Ephesus, and many who had professed to believe came to Paul -confessing that they had lit been sincere. 'They brou,ght their, magic books and piled them in the arena of the "gym" -somebody Agin - DUBLIN .

'Paul knew that it was time far him to leave Ephesus`the mob prevented him from 'going by boat, so he went on foot -and walked -to lOorinkh, visit- ing Macedonia enrou'te. iThe ,trouble in Corinth' ,was volt so serious as Paul had feared, so he had a very pleasant 'winter there, the eno'st restful three months since he began to be the missionary bo the Gentiles. lit never occurred to Pant to "do nothing" ;in a .restful period. While he was waiting for the boats to sail tor Palestine in the spring, he decided to write to the Church at Rome. He wou'l'd make Rp'mle on his next trip, if spared. But if this 'letter were to be his only message to them, he wanted; it to be aomvpdete-a real letter to a church where many of his 'friends were tnemtbers, and a statement of the true d'oc'trine Of the Christian faith, He poured his whole soul into the letter, mainta'i'ning his right as an 'Apostle, declaring and provin.g that we are justified by ilaith-not by -law.
