DECEMBER 1, 1946 By NEWMAN CAMPBELL | (The » International # Uniform Lesson on the above topic for Dec. 1 is Acts 19:1-20:1; Ephe~ sians, the Memory Verse being Ephesians 4:32, "Be ye kind one to another.") PAUL WENT to Ephesus, a great Greek city located in Asia Minor. There he found a number of brethren and he asked them if they had received the Holy Ghost. They replied that "We have not 50 much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost," He asked them by whom they were bap- tized and they said by John the Baptist. Paul said John baptized "with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on Him which should come after him, that is, Christ Jesus." They then willingly 'were bap- tized in the name of Jesus and the Holy Ghost fell upon them, "and they spake with tongues, and prophesied." There » were about 12 of these men. : Paul, as he preached and taught both Jews and Gentiles, became' the object of much opposition, so that at last he thought it best to continue his work in the school of one Tyrannus, and here he continued for two years. "God also wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul, so that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them." Certain "vagabond Jews, exor- cists" - decided they too would drive spivits out of those pos- sessed and profit by it, by saying, "We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth." Seven sons of one, Sceva, a Jew and chief of the priests, did this, but the evil spirit possessing a . man dnswered, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are ye?" Then the man in whom the spirit was leaped upon the brothers and beat them so at last they fled, "naked and wounded." {a Unbelievers Were Afrald Jews and Gentiles alike heard of this and were afraid, and "the name of Jesus was magnified." Many believed and confessed their misdeeds, + and . others : brought their magical books and publicly burned them. "So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed." Now there arose a different op- position, for one Demetrius, a sil- versmith who made silver shrines for Diana, which brought a good living to him and his fellow craft. men, called the workmen together and pointed out to them that Paul was turning people away from the worship of Diana, and so they were losing trade; the "temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should, be: destroyed, whom alk Asia~and the,world wershippeth.y The worknien grew angry, crys ing, "Great is Diana of the Ephes sians," which filled the whole tity with confusion. The men caught two of Paul's companions, Gajus and Aristarchus, and rushed with them into the theater, Paul tried to get in, too, but was prevented by his friends. The town clerk, or mayor, however, quieted the pege ple, saying, "Ye men of Ephesus, what man, is there that knoweth not how that the city of 'the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of tha image which fell down from Jupi«! ter? | } "Seeing that these things cans not be spoken against, ye ought to be quiet, gnd to do nothing rashly. "For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither robe # bers of churches, nor yet blas- phemers of your goddess. Wheres' fore if Demetrius and the crafts. men which are with him, have a matter against any man, the law. is open, and there are deputiesg let them implead one another." He assured them that if they had anything against any man, it should be determined in a lawful assembly, without uproar, So say. ing he dismissed them, preventing probable bldbdshed. Paul Goes to Macedonia After all this Paul called his' disciples to him, embraced them and departed .for Macedonia. Ten years later, Paul, now & prisoner, wrote his letter to the Ephesians, the fourth chapter of which is assigned to our lesson. This fourth chapter of Ephe- sians is so full of gems of wis. dem and advice on Christian live ing, that it is impossible to quote much therefrom. It should be earnestly studied by the teacher and the pupils should learn at least some of the pihsages by heart whére they will remems bered in later years. : He reminds the Ephesians that as Christians they must put away their former sinful feelings and "be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new man, which after God is cres| ated in righteousness and true; holiness. ' "Wherefore putting oy inmal speak every man truth with his} neighbor; for we are members of one another. Be ye angry and sin not; let not the sun go down upon your wrath. , . . : "Let all bitterness, end wrath and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: 2 ' "And be ye kind one to anoths] er, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake, hath forgiven you's ~ @ Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Tne.
