Paul Before Festus and Agri
Ppm-,
Acts 26: 1942.
Consmontary.-L Paul before Foe-
tus (vs, 6.12). After Feetue leonine- gov-
ernor the Jewe agaia sought to have,
Paul takeobojeruealern for trial, for
"there tIley hag. mere power over the
courts, or omelet secretly aesassinate their
ementy." Their ohargee ageinst him
were doubtless the same there that Ter.
tullus brought against blin in our last
loesoa. Peel saw that the only safe wee
for him was to appeal to Caesar, and
have hie ease tried at Rome. Festus at
ono.) granted the appeal. But the gave
ernor was in doubt regarding his prison-
er. Paul lied appealed te Caesar and
must be sent to Rome, and yet them
is no well defined charge against Wan.
Foetus aocordingly assembled his court
and invited King Agrippa and Queen
Bernice to listen to Paul's defence and
assist in framing, a charge,."for," said
Foetus, "it seemeth to me unreasonable
to send a prisoner, and not withal to
signify the crime laid against him."
II. Paul's addrees before Festus and
Agripea (vs. 1-231. Paul the prisoner,
was standing in the midet cif all the
o pomp and eplendor of Oriental royalty,
As soon as Paul was told that he was
permitted to speak for himself, he at
once began his address "with his usual
polished eourtesy," For the tilled time
XII the Acts we have the story of the
Apostle's conversion. "The oharge
age/islet Paul and to which he replies is
this: He has infringed on that Roman
law which requires on pain of death that
evony man shall adhere to his own na-
tional religion. To show himself not guils
ty of this chargee Paul maintains that
]xis is in fact the true Judaism, He first
shows how strict a Jew he originally was
aad how he perseouted the followers of
Jesus (vs, 4-11); next, how he was eon -
vented and commissioned by the emdible
vesiese from above (vs. 12-21), and third,
-that all this is embraced in the prophets
and in Moses (vs. 22-29)." 19. Agrippa -
"Herod Agrippa II. was king of the
country east of he upper Jordan and
the Sea of Galilee, He had a palace at
Joru4a,1em, and was professedly a Jew,
and was versed in Jewish customs. Fle
was the son of the Herod Agrippa who
slew James and imprisoned Peter. After
the deetruotioa of Jerusalem, A. D. 70,
he was dethroned, but permitted to re -
tau his wealth, and lived at Rome un-
til A. D., 100. He was immoral in life,
but not unjuet in his rule, and has been
°considered the best in the Heroclian
family." Not disobedient -From first to
last in Paul's career we find him ready
to obey. Fleavenly visioa-The vieion
which app.eared to no from heaven.
20. First unto ,.,. Demaseus-Hc be-
gan to preach at Damascus immediately
(Aets 9: 20-22),'but Soon went to Ara-
bia. From Arabia he returned again to
Dnmaseus (Gal. 1: 17, 18) where the
Jews sought to take his life. Paul es-
caped by night, being let down by the
Wall in a basket (Ads 9: 2-3-25.) At
Jerusalem..etc.-He specifies, as his
four -fold field of labor, first, the two
cities of Damascus and Jerusalem, then
the whole region ef Judea„ end, lastly,
the beatIsen world. -Lange. Should re-
pent -He had sought to win men back
to God, to reveal Christ and his coin-
plete work for man's redemption, that
they might repent, and turn to God. The
doctrine of repentance was frequently
preaehed by the apostles. It includes
both ematrition and reformation. The
truly repentant one is heartily -sorry for
his sins, so sorry that he turns away
from sin forever, and, if possible would
undo all bb ha 'e sinfullydone. Confes-
slope are Made, wrongs are righted, ancl
the maul, loathing iteelf-, ories to Goa for
Morey. 21. For these ca,uses-Because
he had obeyed God according to his dis-
tinct revelation, in a manner displeasing
01; the Jew's, they had sought to kill
him. In the temple -Paul was worship-
ping in the temple when the Jews seiz-
ed. him,
22. 1 continne-It Was not by any
neever of his own he had been preserv-
ed; but it eves because God had inter-
posed 'and rescued him. Witnessing -
Bearing testimony, as he had berm com-
manded. Small -To those in hunible
life, to the poor, the ignorant, and the
obseure. Great -The rich and noble; to
knives, and princes, e,nd governors. He
had thus stood on Mars' hill at -Athens;
he bad borne testimeny before the wiee
men of Greeoe; he had declared the
same gospel before Felix and Festus, and
. now before Agrippa. Saying none other
• things -"He adds the supreme fact that
all he taught was in exact agreement
with Moses and the 'prophets. Thie fact
utterly overthrew all the charges or hia
accusers„ and'convicted theof reject-
ing the law awl the oprophets, which was
the ensile _alleged againet himself." 23.

looked oiesolenied the suffering character
of the Messiah, and stumbled fatelly at
the gospel because it required them to
aceept a crueified Redeenter.-Hackett.
The first, ete.-See R. V. "Christ was
not the first to be raised front the dead,
but the first who by his resurrection
gave the promise of eternal life." Pleul
/coveys attaches great importance to, the
resurrection. Shove light -True light
shies only through the risen Christ.
11. Perseeution. "The Jews. .went
about to kill me" (v. 21). Obedience to
the vision will bring perseeution. Them
are thirty-six references to perseoution
in Actts. Decause Paul showed Jews and
Gentiles that they were sinners, and
needed salvation, the Jews seized him

With Lis oommission came the know.
ledge that he must suffer (Acts 0. 16).
Road the list of his persecutions (2 Cor.
11. 28.88). The world has not changed.
The outrages in Armenia, the oppres-
sione in Russia, the perseentione of
young converts in parts of India, China
toad Atrite, prove it.
111. Testignonx. "1 continue-witnets-
ing" (v. 22). A. T. Pierson says, "Two
words are conspieueue in the groat own-
mite/ions `preach' mid `seittiess.' To
preaels le to proolaise as e herald; to
Witmees i to beetify from persorial know-
ledge. The tares widely and eeseutially
differ, yet complement cads other."
Segue said to Paul, "I have appeared un-
to thee for this purpese, to snake the,.
e wits:fete (v. 10). "Thou shalt be hie

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS.
Faithful Preachieg.
L Obedience. "I Was not disobedient
unto the heavenly vision" (v. 19). 'Paul
wee true to bis commieeion, He was
obedient to the vision. As A. J. Gordon
euggeeted, This man obeyed the heavons
le, vision, He at once entereel upon ser-
vices wily a crucified will would have
accepted. In the dcalleatiO eircle lee sup-
planted the niexims of ?elfishness by
the law of Ohriet; In polities snediated
between poverty asid wealth; in phil-
anthropy, put his shoulder under the
workingman's yoke; pleeded the moue
of the slave and again and again un-
locked the boudetnan's fetters; iil so-
ciety bore testimony against luxturious
living; in the church, svarned solf-in.
diligent Chrietians against pride of
apparel and pride of position, telling
them with tears they were enemies of
the cross; in trials and hardships,
wrought- constantly, enjoyine eontinuee
communion with God. Thetruevision
is not given to be 'gazed at iis wonder,
or enjoyed as a rapture; it is to be
wrought out in the life. The Spirit of
God iSlumining the ward of God is a
heavenly vision, ° The Ohristiao has
visions of what it 'means to, 1, Be pure
even as He (1 John 3: 2, 3), 2. Be holy
even as He (1 Pet, I: 1S). 3. Be right-
eous even as He (1 John 3; 7). 4. Obey
even as He (John 15: 10), 5. Love even
as He (John 13: 34; 15: 12). 6. Walk
even as He (1 John 2: 6), 7. Live in
this world even as He (1 John 4: 17).
8. Overcome even as He (Rev. 3: 21).
And as they go on in obedienee all
hese words will become, as one says
of Spirit illumined oteripture, "bright
with gracious memories and eloquent
with spieitual associations."

25. I am nbt mad -Either Paul of Fest-

SAVED MANY LIVES.
Photographer Was ,Going to Take
• Fatal Raihlight.
Pittsburg, Oct 1.18.- Presence of
mind .-of an employee of the Rees
Shipyards probably saved the lives of
limey of the. Disciples of Christ, who
were gathered there to witness the
dedication of the Oregon, a mission-
ary boat to be used on the Congo
River, in Africa. At the climax of
the celebration, when a photographer
was about to ignite powder for a
flashlight picture, a Man rushed through
the crowd, herline aside those in Ins
way, and cried out: "Wait a minute.
There are 30 gallons of gasoline in the
bow of that boat."
During the tense moment the photo-
grapher retained hold of the ig-
niter until he realized the import of the
warning, those- ofthe crowd of nearly
5.900 who were inside the shipyard
held their breath in awful suspense,
realizing that a twitch, of a hand
might send some of theth to etesnity.
Ari he slowly lowered the pan a sigh
of relief followed the breath -stealing
gasp they had expressed tlie moment be-
fore, and the ceremony continiled.
The boat, when completed It month
hence, will have eost about $22,000, the
greater part of 'which was contributed
by the Oregon Christian -Missionary So-
ciety. It will be taken apart for ship-
nient to Africa by way of England. Its
eapecity is 35 tons, with a carrying ca-
pacity of about 100 people, with a speed
of twelve miles an hour.
