Lesson Title—Peter Preaching t
Gentiles.
Lesson Passage—Acts, chaps. z;=1
Golden `Text—Rom. 'so, is.
Up to the time recorded lin to -day'
lesson the apostles had preached th.
gospel only to the Jew; or to those
Greeks who had embraced' the Jews'
religion. - B3utevery mysterious and
surprising thing, even to the •apostles
is set forth in these two chapters. "
A Roman colonel by name • Cornel-
ius both a great and a good man
was directed by' heavenly vision t
send to Joppa for one Simon whos
surname is Peter: "He shall tell the
what thou oughtest to do." This was
the` first act in the opening . of the
door of faith to the Gentiles: He
immediately obeyed the voice of the
angel and sent men to Joppa to in-
quire about Peter. -
When these *messengers were draw-
ing near to the city, Peter was en-
gaged in prayer upon the top of ,the
'
house where he lodged:. Then it was
that Peter had a vision also and a
voice spoke to him. -, God had forbid-
den his chosen people to associate
with idolatrous nations they had at
his time carried the matter so far,
hat they made even the touching of
Gentile a defilement (John i828).
eter, had this vision and this :voice
ent to him to prepare him for the
message from Cornelius. Christ had
intimated, the "Gentiles should be
ellow-heirs, and of ,the same body,
and partakers of his promise in Christ
y the gospel" (Eph. 3:6): However
'
Peter did not understand the .Mas-
er's instructions to teach all nations
rid had to be enlightened by seeing
seven 'open and a sheet ,fitll of all
anner of living creatures, knit at
the four corners let down to the roof
of the house. He was commanded to
7 common or unclean. The voice spoke
again saying, "what God hath cleans -
o ed that call not thou common." This
was done t �' and •
t
he
vee
eel was
. received up again in heaven. Peter
didn't doubt for a rnonient, the tea-
s lity of the vision but it puzzled him.
e. to interpret its meaning. While still
pondering over it he. was given to
know its signi•ficance.• The men sent
by Cornelius were below. The Spirit
of. God said to him, ,'Behold, three
men seek theee, Arise, therefore and
get the down, and go with them,
, doubting nothing; for -I have sent
o them.". He went down and inter -
e viewed,' them, lodged then* until the,
e nett day when, taking certain ,bre-
thren with him, he set out to go to
Caesoron with the messengers from
Cornelius. A' goodly :'number of peo-
ple, kinsmen and near friends, had
been assembled by Cornelius and to
them. Peter explained his position.
He said they all knew it to be ac-
cording to the. Jews.' religion an un-
lawful thing for tun to keep company
with one of another nation; but God
had just opened his mind to see this
in a different right, "Now for what
intent have ye sent for me?" Cor-
nelius then related his vision and ad-
ded. - "Now, therefore, are we all here
present before God to bear all things
g
that are commanded thee of God."
Then Peter preached to - .them what
he himself now believed, that God is
no reslpector of persons; that theg os-
pel of Jesus is forew and

of Shoes and do kill and eat. He - protested thinking,
no doubt, that it was a trying of his
SHOE STORE. principles as'a Jew to eat nothing a
r
alike. As he was continuing to open -
up the scriptures the Holy Ghost fell
on all them which heard the word.
Then followed their baptisin and their.
urging Peter and the.brethren to stay
among thein :a time, instructing theme,,,•
in the things pertaining to the king-
dom of God. -
In Chapter XI we read of Peter's -
being taken to task by his fellow
apostles in Jerusalem for associating
with Gentiles. Peter vindicated his
ction by describing all that had been
evealed to Cornelius and himself.
Then he added, "Forasmuch then as.
God, gave them the like gift as he did! -
unto us who believed on the Lord
Jesus Christ what was I that I could
withstand God?" This •convinced his
opponents and they ceased their cri-
ticism. Not only so. They opened
their mouths to praise God for what
had, been accomplished through Pet-
er's ministry saying ,`Then hath God
also to the Gentles granted repent-
ance .unto life,"
'"The career of Peter after the As
• cension ,is, the most striking evidence
at once ef, his natural capacity and of
the; transformation affected in him by
1•,s friendship with Jesus. It is in
Peter we see the kind of men whom
our Lord deliberately chose to bre: his
closest frii.nds axed the agents for the
fulfiltnent'of his purposes.. The dis-
ciple is now worthy of the designa-
tiori "Rack," He showed himself to
be the natural leader of th,e new coni
neunity; its most' powerful and •ener-
getic member, both in council and in
not, Peter is the Luther among tho
Apostles."
