GOLDEN TEXT—Herein I also exercise myself to have a conscience void of offense to- ward God and men always.— Acts 24:26. BY REV. HUGH T. STEVENSON. Disappointed by the fallure of the plot to destroy Paul served to in- crease the sanhedrin’s determination to have him killed. The protection given the apostle by Lysias and the failure of the lynch law madg them desperate. Ananias and the other Jewish ecclesiastical leaders knew the marked antipathy of the proc- urator against the rulers of the sanhedrin because Felix had acted with -great severity toward the na- tion’s chiefs in consequence of the riots between the Syrians and Jews in Caesarea. They recognized that their only hope of obtaining a verdict against Paul depended upon their se- curing the services of Tertullus, a noted criminal lawyer, whose famil iarity with the principles and prece- dents of the Roman law and his elo- quence as an orator in the use of the Latin tongue might influence Felix to uthor of “Im Hix|decide against Paul, especially if the [Roman governor received some form of a generous consideration. When Paul faced his third trial be- fore a Roman officlal he faced a grafter for a judge. The character ngte to report the|of Felix differed from that of Gallio conference om limitation of arma-| and Sergius Paulus, whose decisions based upon the Roman law, which he morning will be “The Changeless |had been carefully built up on the is evening topic will be |principles of justice, furnished the unday School Lesson ca, & man Yo his worship of God,Bl- though it did not grant religious’ mfi l'. is apparent that Tertullus was to the prejudices and pride of Foll‘l in his address. The Jewish lead- ers, who were present, indorsed the statements of their attorney, bat pre- sented mno proof to sustain their charges. Tertullus suggested that a Ui tle clever questioning of the prisoner the governor was all that would be needed to persuade Felix to turn Pgui over to the Jewish sanhedrin to put h to death in answer to their clamor. They probably did not know of the apox- th claim, that he was a Roman citi- zen, which would prevent the procur tor's complying with their request, e\{n if he did wish to conciliate the Je! ish leaders. Upon the signal of the governor, Paul commenced his defcnse. He avoided technicalities. He could have pointkd out the artifice used by Tertullus in evading the points at issue. He d not said a word about Trophimus e Ephesian, whom they claimed he had brought into the sacred precincts of the temple. Standing alone, like Christ be- fore Pilate, without any counsel to de- fend him, Paul was more than the equal of the trained and eloguent lawycr who had prosecuted the case He com- menced his defense by diplomatically re- fering to Felix's long term of service as the foundation of his hopes of secur- ing justice. It would be easy for a trained executive, like Felix, to learn the facts, which would prove his inno- cence. Paul took up each charge in the order of their presentation. Having o witnesses to present, the apostle en- tered a dignified denial to all the ac- cusations made against him. He ap- pealed to Felix's sensc of right and justice. He sought by his Esndir, fea:- lessness and uprightness of statement. which was presented logically, to con- vince the procurator of the truthfulnpess of his denials and to win Felix for fhe Members of Douglas M.

Felix intimated pretty strongly to Paul that for reasonable considera- tion he could obtain his freedom. It was probably in the hope of obtai ing a bribe that he placed Paul in the palace prison when he had no moral or legal right to hold him after he had given due consideration to the prosecution’s charges, which Ter- tullus skillfully presented to the court. The flattery of the lawyer went far beyond the truth concerning the ad- ministration of Felix. He had sup- pressed “brigands, dispersed a pre- tender and his followers and quelled riots, but he had also caused much discontent and had even caused the {assassination of 3 high priest.” Never- theless he was considered “the worst of a series of procurators,” whose ad- ministration was noted for disorders and troubles which grew steadily worse until he was recalled by Nero. Tacitus revealed with his incisive pen the oharacter of Felix in one short sen- tence. The historian states that the governor, who was called upon to con- sider Paul's case, was “at once a de- bauchee and a tyrant, who performed functions little less than roval with a spirit of a slave.” Felix could not get away from his past, for he was a freedman of the Emperor Claudius and a brother of Pallas, the favorite cusation of heresy by acknowlede- ing that he was glad to be counted a follower of Christ, which was then called the Way. He insisted that. it was unjust to refer to the Christians as the “sect of Nazarenes,” because he worshiped the God of the Jews and believed in their Scriptures, em- phasizing the unity of Christianity and Judaism. Paul claimed that they were not two separate faiths, but one, because he held, as all Chris- tians still do, the same hope which the Pharisees, a recognized Jewfsh party, held concerning the resurrec- tion of the dead. both of the just and unjust. He challenged his accusers to prove that he had ever in any wav profaned the temple. The charge was absolutely unfounded, becausehe was under a vow in the temple, and had brought alms to Jerusalem for his nation and furnished the offerings for others in connection with the sacrifices of the temple. The defense was completed. Felix. who understood the faiths of Judaism and Christianity, recognized that no case had been made out against Pail. The fact that the most important witness had not been brought down from Jerusalem gave Felix a reason for delaying the verdict that he might corroborate Paul's statements through an inquiry in Jerusalem as to the facts from ias. Another |reason for delaying decision was . raing . b favorite | the claim of Paul that Christianity From the. Unkiaown Soldier Trmity theran Churc v of Nero.

JARRETT, Mini political charge of sedition was a serious offense. If found guilty, the penalty imposed would have been capital punishment. It was the most dangerous of all the charges, because it was the duty of every government official to preserve peace and to put |’ down a political insurrection at any ycost. The religious charge that he was the leader of the religlous sect of the Nazarenes was not 5o serious. This term had been applied to Christ Jesus and this was the first time it was used In reference to His fol- lowers. It evidently was a term of reproach. It implied that the faith which he preached was an unauthor- ized religion which had never been officlally npproved by the government. The last charge, that he had profaned | the temple, was a serious crime. If proven, Paul would have received the death penalty. Roman law had nized the Jewish religion and thei laws.

There was a principi- at stake, so the apostle declined to v tribute. It 1s quite possible that one of the considerations which_caused Felix tu fregeuntly summon Paul into cowr: jas to give him the opportunityto present him the covetted bribe. Once at least he summoned the apostle-ti a private conference to satisfy the curiosity of his wife. When Pdul reasoned with him and his wife of righteousne®, temperance and juds- ment to come the hard and cyni Roman trembled. There was no eofn imon ground in their faith, vet y\ candor. courage and convincing po | of Paul's speech aroused the qormin: jreligious feelings of the procurator of moral distinctions. He realized how he had outraged justice, when the prisoner pointed out the procusu- tor’s lack of chastity in the presen of his adulterous companion, Gon- science thundered as Paul vividlv painted the certainty of the harve which his life, labor and love would reap.
