Stearns, 'O'J lCfcprih 1909, by American Was AMatfanj Passing through the twalacea men tioned they sojourn, 'tor a time at Thessalonlca, where Sabbath, attert Baooatn they proved from the Scrip tures that Jesns of Nazareth Is the Christ, the promised Messiah of Isra el, aud;; that, according to'the Scriptures, it .was necessary for Him to suffer and 4.I-Ise asa from the dead .The Lord Jesas Himaeff after He'rose from the ead, pursue this very pUn and from Mosfes, and, alt, the prophets expounded in, ail-the Scrirftuea the things concern ing Himself,. Wiowing that aU the' .things, .which r written therein cort perning. 'Him must needs be fulfilled J . roj. xne good uewaconcernmg vJesus Christ took hold of them in the ftower jbf theSrlirif for, they received th indeed the word of man, and, from'f them through all Macedonia elsewhere (I Thess. L 5, simple and yet how full concerning them, "Ye t from idols to serve the li message aitls and hot of sounded Wt d Achala and ii, 18). How i statement ed to God and true wu sou : to wait for His Son from ueaven, wnom , Ue raised Thm the dead, even Jesus, who delivered us from the wrath to comer(l Thess. L 9, 10). Here we have the threefold sal vation most clearly stated, saved by His sacrifice when we come toGod by Him,, then in' all th6 daily life living unto Him, serving Him, and all the time waiting for and expecting tlie re turn of Christ from heaven (I Thess. Iv, 16-18). - ; Theret . were many who believed and continued to give heed to the teaching, of Paul aid Silas; i but there were Jews who believed not and, being filled with envy and Instigated by the great adversary, set all the city in an uproar, accusing these men of turning the world upside down by3 proclaiming as king one Jesus, he world is in deed upside down andJ Wrong, and notwithstanding the boasted progress of the day the whole woVW still lieth In the .wicked one (I John19, R. V.), and God has said, "I wulerturn, overturn, overturn, untllife'scome whose right it Is, andA l?Wltve-lt Cirn (Ezek. xxt Trete only rie who is capable of makmg'ailsTonp things right on this long , sin iursed earth, and He is the Klnsr mtidfahsdl reiguin righteousness and7 shall bring peace ana quietness Ntt the wrajg, earth, for He shall be King of kings and Lord of lords, and . all kings and all nations shall serve Him Isai xxxtij l. it; Bev. xlx, 16; Ps. lxxli, 11). Ac cording to our Lord's commaad. "When, they persecute y In this city,: flee yeJ to another (Matt, x, 23), Paul and Silas passed on to Berea. and there pursued the same course, opening' to' them the same . Scriptures- concerning the same Jesus. Here also many men and women believed and received the word readily and thus brought joy to themselves. ( the Joy and peace wlch come by believing (Bom, xv, 13), but they also were a comfort to the Lprd Himself, for when on earth vlh His . humiliation He- said to His Father in Heaven, I have given unto ' them the words which Thou gaveat me. and they have received them (John xvilj o. L.e us rememDer inax wnenever we receive His i word meekly and as the very word of God we please. Him. There was at least one point la which the Eereans excelled, and that was in their searching the Scriptures daily, that they might see for them selves the things which Paul ' taught and believo them, not because I Paul taught them, but because God Him self had told them in His word. ; The -only way to be established is' to be lieve God, believe what He says torus' in Hie word, accepting it as if He had spoken it to us directly by a voicer from heaven. Then when ,wp can t say, as did the people of Samaria. "We have heard Him oursolYes" we shall not be , tossed about by every wind of doctrine (John iv, 42; II Chron. xx, 20; Isa. vii, 9). The majority of -church' goers are too prone to believe what the preacher says instead of doing as the Bereans did. and therefore so few seem to be established. They also ask, 'How do we? know what to believe when different teachers .teach so dif ferently The answer is In Isa, viii, 20, R. "To the law and to the testi mony, . If they speak not ' according to this work It Is because there i is no morning for them. ;; ' r The Scriptures are the only Infallible guide, and our', Lord said, that when people err it is because they know not ,the Scriptures nor the power of God. The professed messengers of God will, if they are true messengers, carry only the "Lord's message; ; otherwise; they "are prophets of the deceit of their owit hearts, and the Lord never sent them (Jerxxill. 21-29). The' devil does ,cer talnly hate the word of God and so he stirred his followers at Thessalonlca to go toBeHa and oppose the- servants of the Lord, there.. This resulted in Paul going . on to Athens, - while ; Silas and Timothy, abode for aPUme at Be-, vrea untn Paul sent for them to come . to Aim : with all fipeed.ri; The: devil's hatred of God. and His ' word "Is very : manifest, from Gen,: 1L" 2,- 4, onward, and, I hare no hesitation in saying that all opposition . to and, destructive criti cism of' the word of God4 today are wholly cl the deTlL Contrast Isa.
