Missionary zeal keeps a Christian in action for God. After a time at fhe church in. Antioch, the urge to preach the gospel sent Paul out on his second missionary journey. This time his partner was Silas, because ha and Barnabas had separated over taking Mark along, since he had turned back in the midst of the first missionary journey. Timothy took his place (Acts 16:1-5). .'Our lesson is of unusual import because it tells us .how the gospel first, came to Europe, from whence it later came to America. Paul’s efforts to continue his ministry in Asia were hindered by the Holy Spirit (Acts 16:6, 7). It was then that he was given a heaven-sent vision of a man in Macedonia cry­ ing for help. At once the party set out to obey the leading of the Holy Spirit (Acts 16:9, 10).’ I. Paul’s Ministry to ths Philip- ptans (Acts 16:11-15). Philippi was an Important, city; a Roman colony and outpost. Ap­ parently, the Jews who had come there to live had not felt any strong desire for religious fellowship, for they had built no synagogue. Cer­ tain godly women met on the Sab­ bath by the riverside for prayer. Here was Paul’s opportunity and he took it. 4 The story of the conversion of Lydia has many elements of spe­ cial interest.. It presents the turn­ ing point in the progress of the gos­ pel, which by the grace and lead­ ing of God brought it northward to Europe rather than southward into Africa or eastward through Asia. Many of us have heard be­ cause of the way Paul was led, antj one wonders if Europe and America might not otherwise have been the "dark continents" ' rather than Africa and India. We are what we are by the grace of God. He sent us ths gospel through Paul that day at Philippi. . Then we note that the first con­ vert was a woman. She was nfif the last woman to give an attentive ear and si believing heart to the gospel message. The church through all, its history has been blessed by the readiness of women to bear and heed the gospel. . We like to note that Lydia set a pattern of hospitality and service which her sisters in the church have maintained (see v. 15). She "con- atrained” the visiting preachers to enjoy the comforts of her'home, and thus put forward the work of Christ (see n i John 5-8). It is encouraging to observe how perfectly the leading of the Holy Spirit worked out in the experience of Paul and his brethren. The Lord sent his prepared messenger to the place where there was a prepared heart waiting to receive the Word.. We may confidently go on the er­ rands ' of our God, knowing that whan he leads he. goes before l and prepares the way. That does not mean that there will be no trials and difficulties. Paul had plenty of them (see II Cor. 11:23-33). But it does mean that we may go with the assurance of blessed results; in his name, and with the grace to. bear whatever comes along the way for his glory. Ths second Scripture portion of our lesson is not related to the first except that it gives a portion of the letter which Paul, by the inspira­ tion of the Holy Spirit, wrote to the church which he had helped to establish at Philippi about 12 years later. H. Paul’s Message to the Phllip- piaus (Phil. 2:5-11). Although after Lydia’s conversion Paid met opposition and suffered imprisonment (Acts 16:16-40), that was only the beginning of a blessed ministry there. The church at Philippi though poor and persecuted was loyal and warmhearted. They sent a gener­ ous gilt to Paul, who was in prison in Rome. He wrote to thank them, and his letter became a real hymn of joy and assurance. It discusses Christian experience, its principle, pattern, purpose and power, Chapter 2 presents the mind of Christ as 'the pattern of true Chris­ tian living. Nothing is to be done for vain glory (v, 3), but in the spirit of Christ, who willingly gave Up his glory with the Father that he might become our Saviour. It has well been said that if he had not done so, we should have been amazed at his glory, but we should never have been saved, He who might have "grasped" (v. 8, R, V.) his equality with God, laid it aside that as a man he might die for the salvation of lost mankind (v. 8). Little wonder that God has given, him such a high and exalted posi­ tion (w . 9-11). One day every tongue‘shall confess that he is Lord, Hasten the day! „ The Ohio Shorthorn Breeders com­ bination sale at the London fair grounds, Monday, was unusually successful fronwJhe point o f sales as well as attendance.

Pep up with PEPPETSI PEPPETS L a x a t i v e ..Wherea Man CanBe What He WANTS to Be One of the freedoms closest to the hearts o f liberty-loving Americans is' their freedom to choose or to change their vocations. Your children may follow in your footsteps, serving in the same field you chose for yourself; or they may enter any business or profession for which their natural abilities and education tit them—from Agriculture, Art and Aviation, right through the alphabet ! America, employing the capitalistic system, is the land where a man '‘can be what he wants to be. He can start a chewing gum business with $32 capital and become the Win. Wrigley of his generation. He can tinker over inventions in a back-alley shop—even pawn his watch to com­ plete the first complete model of his creation -and become the Henry Ford o f a new Industry! Your son may be another Edison, another \V right, a Patterson or a Kettering, He may some day employ hundreds of other people, giving them the same opportunity to save and be and do and have and share. That is the American Way—-the Right Road o f freedom. Keep the Right Road o f opportunity under free enterprise open and unobstructed. It is your responsibility as a good citizen to speak up and let your voice be heard—when your own good common sense warns you q f .trends that attempt to substitute some other theory for the American Wty.
