jesus gal 326 the lesson as a whole as the vork of evangelizing the entiles developed under the nurtur ig hand of god and more and more f these oncedespised idolaters ere brought to the knowledge of hrlst and into the fellowship of the lurch the latent antagonism be- veen those of jewish extraction id their brethren from the nations ireatened to become stronger and to hinder the work in a marked grec from the first paul insisted the no difference doctrine inch he developes in romans 922 1012 and in galatlans s2s 29 and also in ephesians i 1116 this was the message of conciliation 2 cor 519 which proclaimed everywhere to jew id gentile alike his great sermon eached in the synagogue of anti- h in pisidia is a wonderful ittome of the message he carried nation after nation preaching ace by jesus christ vs 1641 3 not pass it over because it is not the printed lesson it should have ry careful consideration setting rth gods way whereby guilty sin ks may not only find forgiveness it justification from all things lie opposition of the unsaved jew this truth was of such a violent laracter that paul and barnabs id left the synagogue and turned r the time wholly to the heathen ising their action on direct scrip- from isaiah496 but although any of the gentiles received the essage in faith and confessed lirist with gladness the opposition increased that the apostles moved i to iconium it is fitting to link ith this histrooial record a doctrin- statement from the epistle to the latians as that letter was oc- sioned by an effort in later days to rrupt this testimony by mixing idaism with christianity the historical setting returning to the continent of asia ter the cyprus campaign paul and j trnabas moved on from perga in tmphylia to the pisidian antiocli lere they first found an open door the jewish synagogue until the ws who refused to believe the gos- 1 stirred up an incipient riot as a suit of which they separated the nverts and continued ipreaching to e gentiles

thronged the nagogue on the second sabbath verse 45 theyo were filled with vy instead of rejoicing that ir gentile neighbors were eager hear the glad tidings concerning ir messiah and the grace of the d of israel the jews were moved th jealous hatred and took occa- n to rail upon the preachers and i 3 message they proclaimed verse 46 judge yourselves worthy of everlasting life little 1 these jews realize that they thus iclaimed their own unworthiness t whenever men treat the grace of d with contumely they really de- o against their own salvation cause of this attitude on the pajt the jews paul declared lo we n to the gentiles it was un- nkable that a doglnthemanger ltude on the part of these men of synagogue should hinder the go- forth of the good news to others o needed it so badly verse 47 i have set thee to be ight of the gentiles this was the railse of god the father to his in view of his rejection by ael the time had now come to 1st upon the call of the nations it they might know him who was jointed of jtehovah to be for ration unto the ends of the th no national or religious pre llces must be permitted to dam up stream of tho grace of god now wing for the blessing of all ions

countryside the ssage was carried and many were ught to know christ as saviour crse 60 the jews stirred up devout and honourable women men are generally strongly parti- these good women were per suaded by the jews that the doctrine of the apostles was a dangerous heresy so they earnestly opposed it in many mission lands today the strongest opposition conies from the women who not understanding the new message fear it may be des tructive of family peace so strong were their opponents that the apostles were expelled from the city of antioch and its coasts verse 51 they shook off the dust of their feet against them as taught by the lord himself when he was on earth matt 10 54 and moved on to the city of iconium verse 53 the disciples were filled with joy and with the holy ghost persecution cannot destroy the joy of the lord or quench the power of the indwelling comforter gal 326dchildren of god by faith in christ jesus the author ized version gives sons this is correct it means that all believers now are recognized by god as his sons and heirs jointly with christ jesus rom 817 we are child ren by new birth but sons by adoption verse 27 have put on christ those who are united to christ of which baptism is the outward sign are now clothed in him we are identified with him before god by the baptism of the holy spirit we are made members of the body of christ and of that new creation of which he the risen lord is the head verse 28 all one in christ jesus all national and racial dis tinctions disappear in this new creation no longer are we viewed as jews or gentiles slaves or free male or female but all are one in him who has redeemed us to god in his own blood verse 29 if ye be christs then are ye abrahams seed all who are of faith are blessed with
