GOLDEN TEXT—For ye, brethreti, were called for freedom; only use not your freedom for an occasion to tbe flesh, but through love be servants one to another. PRIMARY TOPIC—How to Settle A Quarrel. JUNIOR TOPIC—How to Settle a Dispute. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—What Is Christian Living? YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—How to Live as a Christian. Although the first council at Jerusalem (Acts 11) had decided that “to the Gentiles also hath God granted repentance unto life’* the question did not stay settled, for there were persistent Judaizing teachers who now contended that even though the Gentiles could be saved, they had to come into the church by way of Judaism and fulfill the Jewish rite of circumci sion. This raised the vital and fundamental question of I. Grace versus law <acis Hie entire future of the gospel ministry was in a sense depend ent on the solution of this problem. Christianity is the only religious faith in the world that presents justification by grace, all others follow the path of works. The question now was, shall works of the law be mingled with grace — can Jesus Christ alone save men, or is salvation through Jesus Christ, plus something else? How was such a serious question to be settled? Should argument and strife be permitted to go on until the stronger party prevailed? Bet ter judgment indicated the desir ability of n. Council Rather Than Contro versy (w. 2-21). There may be times when it be comes the duty of the Christian worker to take an uncompromis ing stand for the truth of God and refuse to be moved, come what may. But certainly there should be no such spirit in dealing with differing interpretations of Scrip ture on the part of sincere and earnest Christian brethren. How much would be gained in the church today it instead of mag nifying differences and permitting personal desires and ambitions to intervene, men were willing to sit down in the spirit of Christ around the tables of Christian council and brotherhood, presided over and directed by the Holy Ghost (see Acts 15:28). The question was honestly and carefully considered by the second council at Jerusalem, with the re sult that there was a III. Vindication of the Preachers of God's Grace (Acts 15:22-29; Gal. 2:1, 2, 9, 10). After presenting a plain disavow al of those who had troubled them and subverted their souls (what a serious thing it is to teach error concerning God’s Word!), the council being of one accord gave recognition .to Paul and Barnabas as men who had "hazarded their lives for the name of the Lord Jesus." No man should think more highly of himself than he ought Humility is a Christian grace which well befits a sinner saved, by grace. But the Bible abounds with admonitions to honor one another, to recognize the laborer as being worthy of his hire, to give recognition to those who are over us in the Lord. How long is it since you or your church comforted and eneouraged some faithful teacher, preacher, mission ary, or other Christian worker, by giving such recognition as the council at Jerusalem gave to Paul and Barnabas? The final decision of the council is sent not only by Paul and Bar nabas, hut also by a committee from Jerusalem, a gracious gesture of fellowship. Courtesy is not out of place in dealing with even such difficult things as controversies on Christian doctrine — in fact it should be most in place in such a situation. But as a matter of record they also sent IV. A Letter Which Brought Great Joy (Acts 15:23, 31). After addressing the Gentiles as “brethren,” this letter, which has been well called “the Msgnt Charts of Christian liberty,” re viewed briefly the history of the matter, disposed of the subverters, commended Paul and Barnabas, and then without mentioning cir cumcision at all puts upon the Gen tiles "no greater burden than the necessary things.” And what were these? Purity of life, as those who were enjoying Christian liberty. The law of Moses need not be kept as a ground at salvation. They were saved by grace. But grace can never be the cloak at careless living; nor can liberty in Christ be interpreted as license to live in sin. We are set free in Christ, not that we may sin, but that we may “go and sin no move."
