that medical science has made
greater strides, in the develop-1
ment of new drugs in the
, past two decacros man in the

-wonder drugs are now used not
only to relieve pain and dis-j
I tress, but also to .jijve the,
causes of disease.
1 The history of the wonder
drugs 'began back: in 1932 with
the discovery of the sulpha

Lesson for February 7, 19$

knowing thai in the Lord; your
labor ia not in TnVr ,
Coruian :58)
Lesson TJfs A?l
I Corinthians VH H
Ths purpose of this lesson Js
to show how a church can make
a complete and' persistent wit
ness to its community. It Will
point out the value of a total
witness through preaching,
teaching, and social action.
In our Bibie study for today,
we read further of Paul's mini'
strations. "After this he Heft
Athens and went to Corinth"
(Acts 18:1). With these words
we are introduced to the fruit
ful ministry of ?aul in Corinth
Many of the recorded visits' of
Paul to the cities of Asia Minor
and Greece were of short dura
tion, but here we find him stay
ing to preach the word of God
to the people of Corinth lor a
year and six months . . . a
lengthy time for him. We need
to read of, these experiences of
Paul at Corinth to impress u
that the witness for Christ of
ten calls for sustained and
lengthy effort. In latei days and,
times,, missionaries have some
times had to wort for months,
ana even ror years, without
gaining a single convert to
Christ. Adoniram Judicri labor
ed patiently with the people of
Burma for six years without
finding even one person to pro
fess faith in Christ. Nor is the
need for sustained effort limit
ed to the mission field. A cer
tain layman was expressing joy
to a friend that a. neighbor of
his had committed his life to
Christ when he had called at
his home. Upon the friend to
whom he' was speaking remark
ing that it must be a source of
satisfaction to have such results)
from the visit, the layman re
plied: "Yes . . . even more so
because this was my seventeenth
(call at his home on the same
mission." Persistence is neces
sary if we are to take the Chris
tian faith to those who need to
commit themselves to Christ,
and we will do well to bear
this fact in mind when we labor
in His behalf, ,
The eighteenth chapter of Acts
suggests several principles which
are involved in the persistent
and continued witness of the
church. Of first importance is
an awareness of the people who
ought to be reached for Christ.
Paul's experience in Corinth
points to the wide difference in
social and cultural background
of those with whom he shared
the message of faith. He found
a' Jew from Rome who was a
stranger in Corinth. In the.
synagogue he. endeavored to
reach both the 'born Jews and
the' proselyte Jews. Later he
announced that from that time
on he would go to the Gen
tiles (Acts 18:6). V v'v
Local churches in the twen
tieth century , often limit their
outreach to people of similar
backgrounds. We are inclined to
assume that those of a lower
level of economic or social life
will be served ty the sect
groups if they are to be served
at all. In many churches we
cater to what we call the
middle class, or to those we feel
are the business and professional
leaders of the community. It is
well, therefore, to ask ourselves
whether we want those who are
"different" in our church or
class. The example of Paul
leaves no room for a placid ac
ceptance of a Christian fellow
ship that includes only those
who are like us. It reminds us
of our obligation to reach every
person for Christ wherever he is
or whoever he happens to be.
Indeed. Paul gives us an ex
ample in Corinth of the breadth,
and of our obligation to seek
out and find people. No church
in- our day confronts as different
a group of men and women as
those who were the object of
Paul's concern. In his witness
wj . eat th sumrnonf to
everywhere to find those who
ought to be enlisted in the great
and glorious fellowship of be
lievers, Paul's witness, in short,
was a testimony. So, too, Is arl
etfectfve witnessing. , Otw words
are faltering: and feeble when
we enfleavor ' to teu . wnat we
have discovered about God; they
become persuasive and appealing

VA man's got to look after his brother.-That's
.what Timmy said the other day, as he stood
beside ovr baby. And I told him he was right.'
"You are so much stronger than this tiny, little
creature,v I said, "trom now on, you've got
real relponsibilityl"
' A man doe$ have to look after his brother
, , . especially when that brother is weak. But
there are mama nts, too, when even the strongest
man may neecl a brother!
In the eyta of the Church, all men are
brothers, just ',as all men are equally beloved.
As long as theie is a church near you, you are
not alone. You tave only to open the door and
walk in and you. will be at one with your fellow
man . . , and atihome with your brothers,
