They say the word "lone
ly" was created and used
for the first time by Wil
liam Shakespeare. He has
been dead for only 350
years, and what they used
to describe "lonely" before
his time, we don't know.
We are sure people were
"lonely" 400 years ago
even, though they didn't
have a word for it.
You would be surprised
how many lonely people
there are in the world to
day. We know a person
who makes it a regular hab
it of calling up her friends
on the telephone and say
ing: "I just called because I
felt you might be lonely."
The remarkable thing is
that the phone calls are a
sure cure for her friend's
loneliness as well as her
own.
It might be a good idea
if more people make a
practice of this idea.

REMEMBER: Friendliness
is Contagious.

Sunday's Church Lesson
A STRATEGY .
MISSION
(Acts 15:39
16:10) There is much truth in the
statement made by an
Anglican bishop many years
ago, "If our religion is false
we ought to change it, if it is
true we are bound to
propagate it."
There can be little room
for doubt that Christians
ought to carry the good news
of the Gospel to the ends of
the earth. The story of men
who took seriously this very
obligation is recorded in our
scripture lesson for today.
Division, Acts
15:39-41
The Bible tells the plain
truth about men. Even the
Bible heroes like David,
Moses and Paul. If they had
weaknesses the writers did
not gloss over them.
Here is the account of two
great Christian men. In fact
they are men committed to
missions to Jesus Christ.
They have a disagreement,
the contention becomes so
sharp that these two men
decide they cannot do their
best together. They go their
separate ways.
But there is not a word to
indicate that Paul and
Barnabas were unforgiving.
Did either of them hold a
grudge against the other?
Not likely. We do know that
Paul later had a good word
for both Barabas
and John Mark (1

4:11). .v.-yv
It is not a test of a man's
character or discipleship
that he should disagree with
a brother. The test comes in
the way he handles the
disagreement. '
Paul and Barnabas
agreed to disagree and two
mission teams were born.
Silas was chosen by Paul
and approved by the church.
The second missionary
journey began.
Disciple, Acts
- 16:1-5 .
Paul and Barnabas went
through Syria and Cilicia
strengthening the churches.
They came to Derbe .and
Lystra where a young
disciple by the name of
Timothy lived. This young
man had made such an
impression upon the
brethren in that area that
Paul made him a member of
the team.
Because of Paul's concern
not to unnecessarily offend
the Jews, he had Timothy
circumcised. Paul felt this
necessary since Timothy's
mother was a Jewess who
had become a Christian. His
father was a Greek. One is
able to see in this act of Paul
something of his greatness.
He had deep convictions and
stood by them. At the same
time he was flexible where
there was no great principle
to be sacrificed.
Timothy proved to be a
tremendous asset to , the
work of Christ. He became a

trusted companion of Paul
throughout the remaining
part of his life.
As these missionary
apostles traveled from city
to city, they delivered the
decrees (the decision of the
Council at Jerusalem) to the
churches. The result of their
work was that the churches
were made stronger and
also increased in numbers.
Direction, Acts
16:6-10
Having gone through the
territory where churches
had been established on the
first missionary journey,
they turned toward Asia.
This Asia lay to the west of
Antioch, Lystra, and Derbe.
But the Holy Spirit made
them know it was not the
time for them to enter Asia.
Later Paul would spend
three years in Ephesus, a
chief city of Asia.
Not being allowed to enter
Asia the missionaries
turned to Bithynia which lay
to the north and northwest of
Galatia. Again the Holy
Spirit intervened. One
wonders what the apostles
thought, was happening!
Here they were trying to go
into needy areas and the
Holy Spirit was the One who
was stopping them. But they
do notgive up so easily. They
continue to Troas where a
vision comes to Paul. A man
of Macedonia is beckoning
them them to come and help
them.
No time is lost. They are
anxious to carry the good
news of the gospel to those
