Love
FKIDAY, FEBRUARY 1#
. . walk in love, as Christ
also bath loved us. . Ephesians
5:2. (Read I John 4:18-21)
At the Mittlehof Neighborhood
Center in the American section
of Berlin, Germany, a guest dis
covered how wonderful it was to
find a place where love was abund
ant. That guest wrote: 'May every
one who walks through this house
carry with him the spirit of ac
tive and reconciling love and so
cial understanding and spread
them wherever he goes."
Such, indeed, is the spirit of all
Christians. They feel it in the
sanctuary and carry it into the
home, the office, the shop, the
school, wherever life may place
them.
The bonds of Christian fellow
ship are brought about not just
because we may find others kind
and friendly, but because God
in Christ has loved us so much
that this must be our response.
Nothing less will suffice. Is this
our daily walk and talk?
PRAYER
O God, we know that Thou
hast first loved us. May our love
for Thee evidence itself in de
votion to the doing of tasks for
Thee. For Jesus' sake. Amen.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
When Christ is in us, we walk
in love.

Paul and Barnabas in Home Lands
STUDY FOR FEB. 12, 1950
By Wm. Southern, Jr.
Following a year of very re
markable success in Antioch,
where the Greek Gentiles were
admitted as Christians, Paul and
Barnabas were commissioned as
missionaries to carry the gospel
to wider fields.
The two planned their work
ahead and naturally sought the
people of their home territories.
Of cours? Barnabas at once
thought of Cyprus, his home
country. The island in the Medi
terranean and located in the
northeast neck of that great sea.
It was sixty miles from Syria
on the East and 40 miles from
Asia Minor toward the North. Bar
nabas was a native of Cyprus and
is said to have been a wealthy man
and a large land holder and was of
course familiar with the land and
the cities of that land.
The two men planned a trip to
Cyprus lirst. They went from
AntiocU down the Oroutes River
to the sea and across to the is
land. Their adventures hete
were varied and successful, thanks
to Paul, who at this point assumed
the leadership of the mission and
here first used the great powers
he had as an accredited apostle,
preaching the gospel of Jesus of
Nazareth and proving that He
was the expected Messiah of the
Jews.
From Cyprus the two mission
aries went across to ftie home
land of Paul, not far from Tarsus,
where he had lived as a boy and
where his family still lived. He
knew this territory and -had prob
ably traveled it many times. The
distances in miles were not great,
but on foot the paths were rough
and the trips long.
Paul always sought out the cities
where there were many people
and when he came to a city he
Vras always permitted to speak in
the synagogue. At one of the
first stops they .made Paul spoke
one sabbath in the synagogue.
Luke in his account of this first
missionary journey ' gives us the
outline of the address Paul made
here. It was an account of the
Jewish history bringing down the
story to the birth of Christy quot
ing the prophesies and proving
that Jesus was the promised Mes
siah of the Jews. The crowd liked
the sermon and invited Paul to
come again the next Sabbath,
which he did.
But the orthodox Jews had not
forgotten that Paul had once )>een
a student of their beloved Gam
aliel and a member of the San
bedrin and a leader in the attempt
to wipe out the Christians. Some
of the leaders from Jerusalem
and Antioch followed him and at
one point broke up the meeting,
took Paul outside the city limits

and stoned him. They left him
for dead and washed their hands
as a job well done. But Paul was
not dead. He was not even badly
hurt and rose up mueh to the sur
prise of his friends who were
mourning for him and proceeded
with his mission.
When Paul and Barnabas had
established congregations of Chris
tians in each town they made the
first effort for regular organiza
tions Returning over the route
by which they had come, they
completed the organizations in
each place and saw to the selec
tion of elders or leaders. The
word elder in one language means
bishop in another and to us the
meaning is leader. We still in
the Christian church follow in a
measure the method of organiza
tion Paul - used in these early
churches.
When Paul and Barnabas went
up from Antioch to Jerusalem and
consulted the leaders of the mo
ther church, they took John Mark,
a nephew of Barnabas, back to An
tioch with them and began to train
him in the work. When they
started on their first missionary
journey they took John Marta with
them as a helper. For some rea
son John Mark left them in Asia
Minor and returned to Antioch.
We do not know what the dis
agreement was but Paul was great
ly peeved at John Mark and when
it was proposed that the two men
make a second journey Barnabas
wanted to again take John Mark
along, but Paul vetoed the idea
an# would not have him.
I have always taken John Mark's
side in this controversy and think
Paul let his temper get the best
of him. Marks uncle Barnabas
sided with John Mark and the two
men separated, Paul taking Silas
and Barnabas, Mark, making two
teams.
In this small manner the spread
ing of the Christian gospel over
the world had its beginning. Paul
became the great apostle to the
Gentiles and his ambition was to
convert Rome to Christianity. Paul
was imprisoned in Rome and was
martyred there. Thus Christian
churches began to be organized
Speaker Urges
Faith in God
There would be little hope for
the world in its present conflict of
ideologies and nations if man did
not have faith in God's purposes, j
Dr. B. Frartk Hall of Wilmington
said in a speech to Men of the
Webb Memorial Presbyterian
church at the monthly supper
meeting of the group Tuesday
night in the Sunday school builds
ing.
Our present civilization has
reached the point where it could i
easily destroy itself and all crea
tures of the earth with it, Dr. Hall
stated. However, he pointed out,
men must have faith in the Chris
tian Relief that there are bettor
things to come and must work to
ward that goal.
The work of the church is all
j that remains to save man from
I complete annihilation, he ex
I claimed. It has withstood the rig
I ors of 20 centuries of hardship and
i persecution and will remain long
I after the ways of the twentieth
century are forgotten. It is God's
creation, not man's, he emphasiz
ed, and each human being should
remeryber that it is constituted
not of man but by God.
Prior to Dr. Hall's talk, com ,
mittee chairmen of the men's
group gave reports on work under
taken by their committees.

(4) So they, being sent forth by ,
j the Holy Ghost, departed unto Sc
; leucia: and from thence they
j sailed to Cyprus. (5) And when
they were ^t Saiamis, they preach
ed the word of God in the syna
gogues of the Jews: and they had j
| also John to their minister. ( 1 ) !
; And it came to pass in Iconitim. j
that they went both together into
the synagogue of the Jews, and
so spake, that a great multitude
both of the Jews and also of the
Greeks, believed. (2) But the un
believing Jews stirred up the Gen
tiles, and made their minds evil '
affected against the brethren. (3)
Long time therefore abode they
speaking boldly in the Lord, which
gave ?testimony unto the word ol |
his grace, and granted signs and
wonders to be done by their hands.
(19) And there came thither cer
tain Jews from Antioch and Iconi
um, who persuaded the people,
and, having stoned Paul, drew him
out of the city, supposing he had
been dead. (20) Howbeit, as the |
disciples stood round about him. j
he rose up, and came into the city: ;
and the next day he departed with
Barnabas to Derbe. (21) And
when they had preached the gos
pel to that city, and had taught
many, they returned again to Lys
tra. and to Iconium, and Antioch.
(22) Confirming the souls of the
disciples, and exhorting them to
continue in the faith, and that we
must through much tribulation en
ter into the kingdom of God. (23) i
And when they had ordained them
elders in every church, and had
prayed with fasting, they com
mended them to the Lord, on
whom they believed.

UNCLE JED SAYS .
The greatest conquerors are
those who overcome without strife.
That is the whole heart of the
Christian life. Most people think
it takes a lot of noise and lighting
to get done even the little jobs,
much less the big ones.
I've noticed that people who
have the Master's good spirit don't
go at problems with lhe:r teeth
gnarled. They quietly go about
their ac'ons and plans as if they
v. ere getting ready for a nap But
they have quiet, strong courage
and firm determination. Love is
full of determination, but not sel
fish bluster.
In the problems of family life,
daily work life, church life and all
else, the quiet-mannered people get
the most done and enjoy it the
most. That's the only way to live.
Let's not go at the problems of
life fighting, Folks, not even at
evil that way. Let's quietly and
fn the Ibve-s^irit' become so strong
in love power that we force prob
lems and evil out of our lives and
the lives of others, too.
Yours,
Jed.
