ItU IP you had uktd any one In mi ned* about Abraham Lincoln, ibout th# ytir 188a. thay might veil have told you ha bad been a Allure. At that time very taw per tons hi In him hi* true great ness becauae *o many of his ven tures had either tailed or not been notable successes So with many great men. Their towers of success were built on rubble-heaps of failures So it was with the great apostle Paul. He was sin cere, earnest energetic, from his very first week a* a Christian. But: he was not successful from the' first week. Ha bad tried to preach in Damascus, only to be sneaked out of that city in a basket In Je rusalem also he had tried, but the brethren tactful ly took him to a seaport and put him on a boat for home. In 'his tome town Tar mi no doubt he ?r- Feremaa xled too. (we can't Imagine Paul dtting around doing nothing), but t he ever had a grain of aucceia there we never heard of tt. and Paul wai not one to be silent about his successful efforts. Home Base ? If it bad not been for Barnabas there Is no telling what might have happened. He was a sort of pastor-at-large for the growing church in the important city of Antioch, then one of the finest :lties of the Empire. Barnabas rnew his own limitations. He took a trip to Tarsus, located Paul, wrought him back as co-pastor at Antioch Between them they made i great team. The church grew, ?verybody seemed to be happy; 'or a whole year Barnabas and Paul must have been the talk of he church. Then one day in a orayer-meeting it came to the learts of those present that the two associate ministers of that big church should resign; it was God'* will that they should. There wat something else for them to do. Now that was the beginning of what we now call "foreign mis sions." But suppose people in th< Antioch church bad taken the lint that some church members take now when foreign missions are being discussed? They could have said. "What? Send Barnabas and Paul as foreign missionaries? Why. they have all they can do here Why bury their talents in some out-of-the-way place? Peo ple in Lystra and Iconium have their own religions, why not leave 'em alone? Let's wait till we get the heathen in Antioch converted before we start on the heathen in Cyprus!" But the church in Anti och (bless them!) did not talk that way, though there may h'ave been a few members who did. As a church they gave their tried and-true pastors a God-speed and saw them off on the boat for the wide west. It always takes more than a missionary to make for eign missions successful. There has to be a praying, obedient, mis sion-minded home church. ? ? ? ? Expeditionary Force Barnabas and Paul, on the oth er hand, were not like young chaps just out of seminary. They were seasoned mature men, tested workers, known and successful leaders. The church in sending them sent its best It is a thun dering mistake to fancy that you can send to the foreign mission field the poor fellows who couldn't hold down a church In America. It takes a lot more character and ability to make Christ known in a totally indifferent or hostile at mosphere than where there is al ready a partly Christian atmos phere and where the church is a going and often powerful institu tion. Whether it's home missions or foreign missions it is the same story. The firing line, the front line, calls far the best By and large, too. the church has seen this (when It has "seen" missions at all). II Not Missions, then?? Suppose the church never sent missionaries, never did any evan gelistic work, quit pioneering ev erywhere. Then what? Well, what would happen to a firm that never went after new business? What ? would happen to a newspaper that never wanted new subscribers? What happens to a herd of cattle that never admits new blood? An inbred church is like any inbred family. But the most Important question la: What will Christ say r at a church that pays no at tention to his order: "Oo Into all the world"?f JPs.srt ?e eenmey ?^ryateS H ?S?
