C., Sunday School Lesson THE POWER OF THE EAR- LY CURCH.—Acts, 2:1-8-1. Golden Text.— Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.—Acts, 2:21. BY REV. HUGH T. STEVENSON. When Jesus, whom all recognize as the world's greatest Teacher, was about to disband the College of the | Apostles, which He had taught for three years, the Master dellvered to the eleven men a notable commence- ment address. A few weeks previous they had been smitten into hopeless- ness and plunged into the depths of | disappointment and disheartenment | by His death, although He had ex- pressly predicted it to them, and had | sought to prevent thelr despair by | even telling them of His resurrec- tion and the very day of it. The Lord, who had risen from the dead und appeared to them In various places and under different condi- tions, was about to close His per- | sonal career among men and intrust to the eleven men the work of carry- !ing out His program of evangeliza- |tion of the world. If they experi- lenced a second panic when He as- i cended Jesus realized it might prove | ratal. | Durlng the three years that these |men had been His disciples the | Master had come to know them thor- oughly. While they falled to grasp the teachings of the Christ when | He taught them ~concerning “the | exsential truths of religlon. looking at old faiths In a new light. study- ing ancient predictions, whose evi- dent fulfillment, in current events, had been a perpetual surprise” to them, Jesus knew them. His fare- well ‘address was concise but pertl nent. Curiosity was rebuked. Pa- tlence was encouraged. Duty was enjoyed as “with consummate skill as well ax kindness,” the Master held out before them a splendid, though undefined hope that ought to have Kkindled thelr imagination and stimu- lated their expectation by the prom- ised fulfillment at an early date of “the promise of the Father. Walting for Power. Christ did not correct thelr view concerning the identification of their Messianic hopes with the promise of “power from on high” While they were thinking of the words of Isuiah, Joel, Ezeklel, Zechariah, and in fact the whole rank of Hebrew revela- tion and asking the risen Lord many vain questions. showing their desire for temporal power and ambition to ! share in the restoration of the King- dom, Jesus advised them that they would not be giver power until they were filled with the Holy Spirit. { While with uplifted hand He was blessing them in order to remove the last trace of disappolntment or cowardice, He was taken up from {them and hidden, as He ascended. i by the clouds. Returning to tles Jerusalem, the apos. with the faithful band of fol- lowers of the Master, waited In the upper room for the fulfillment of the ! promised gift of power. The mother !and brethren of Jesus were with the ! bellevers, among the number of be- llevers who were fused into a united | questions m: prophet Joel, who predicted the out- pouring of the Holy Spirit in the last Poter's Interpretation ‘of the mar- velous experience was used as an | troduction to his sermon, that pri sented the legitimacy of Christ's claim to the Messlahship. Having made four points in his argument, he summoned all men to accept the salvation offered by the risen Christ. The immediate result was that 3,000 were baptized that day as an evi- dence of thelr repentance and in faith of Jesus Christ as Lord. They became ‘one with the marvelous brotherhood of disciples. They added strength and unity because they continued in the apostle's teachings, fellowship, breaking of bread and prayers. The continuance of that spirit of unity and prayer assured the presence of the Holy Spirit. whose coming gave to the walting church “power from on high,” ‘and whose abiding has been the 'source of the church's power throughout all the Christian cen. turles. The development of God's kingdom depends upon His presence with the Church of Christ. AUSTRALIA ENTERS CHURCH PEACE MOVE NEW YORK, December 1.— The World Alllance for International Friendship through the churches an- nounces that a branch of this organi- zation has been established in Au: tralla, thereby completing the chain of world alliance councils extending around the world. The organization now has twenty-six councils repre- senting as many natlons. Headquarters of the Australlan council will be in Melbourne. The council was organized by Linley V. Gordon, assoclate secretary of the American branch of the alllance, who has just returned from Australia. M Gordon assembled in Melbourne representative group of more than fifty leading clergymen. “The devel- opment of the International pea, movement through the churches, says Mr. Gordon, “proved a new stor- to the Australlans. The churches of that continent, it seems to me, have overemphasized the issue of personal salvation and pald too little attention to_international questions “Great efforts have been made scul-winning.’ but scant care has been given to the winning of govern- ments and nations. The Pacific prob- lem always looms before the people of Australla and I heard much talk about the danger of the yellow races some day gobbling up the country and the necessity of equipping the commonwealth _to resist this alleged menace. The Washington treaty has not ended the constant talk about ‘treedom from molestation by the col- ored races of Asia.’ “The Australlan council of the World Alllance will attempt to show the people of that continent how to settle this problem by strengthening the ties of good will among Australia. Japan and China, so that interractal be settled by friendly and by international arbitration agreement. church by thelr common falth, so that without wavering they prepared | themselves for the coming of th Holy Spirit by their earnest praver life. The implicit and persistent faith, which they showed in loyal carrying our Christ's command & wait was rewarded when the Holy | Spirit came at Pentecost Conditions in Jerusalem were ripe | that day for the inauguration of &| new movement. Multitudes of pil- grims from all parts of the world, where Jews hasl settled, crowded the city streets and filled the inns at Pentecost, which was the most popu- lar feast of the Jewish calendar. It was an annual harvest festivel. Jay of First Fruits' with features in their ceremonial that made ft al- most a day of agricultural thanks- giving. Many modern Jews find in Pentecost another significance. As | Passover marked the anniversary of the exodus, %o Pentecost. with them, marks the anniversary of the legls- lation upon Sinal: fo that great { moral birthday of the Hebrew polity which contained the germs of the American civil government, followed | |fifty days after the Red sea was| crossed. Upon an anniversary of| | the day when God's finzer caused | the mount to burn with fire at the time He gave the law, the Lord sent down upon His praying and walting | people hat appeared to be 'lflllfiufl!’ of fire” distributing itself over the Whole ussembly and touching every person’s head. The walting, praying band did not | realize the full significance of the | event. Behind the materlal portents of wind and fire, which startled and ! plerced the stupid hearts of men | assembled in that upper room one {needs to look for the Lord Himself, | who promised His people that He ! would be with them in carrving out His program to evangelize the world | with His gospel. He assured them !that He would endue them with | “power from on high,” by sending |to them the Comforter. The Holy | Spirit, as invisible as the breath from | which He borrowed His human name. |and as penetrating as the flame to ! which He likened Hls workings, en- i tered into the human spirit of each {one of the waiting bellevers who | crowded into the upper room. | Next to the birth of Christ, no | greater event ever occurred in the ! history of man than the advent of | the Holy Spirit. who came to dwell { among men until the end of this age. |Tn a general way He had always been in the world. When Moses ap- peared among the people after his | communion with God, they saw his face shining with the presence of the { Spirit. The Old Testament was a { product of the Spirit's influence |among men. He moved here and {there one to prophesy, preach or pro- claim God's message to men. He quickened the_ slumbering, sleeping {fires of men. He gave them Insight. vision and a holy passion. He filled | their hearts with certainty, courage and convictions concerning God and His will. His presence always trans- formed men through His personal presence by enduing them with power. ‘When the Holy Spirit, the third person in the Trinity, came to dwell with the body of praying bellevers assembled in the upper room. He ! came to ahide permanently with the Church. The epoch-making event | was describea as the baptism of the Holy Ghost. There was only one advent of the Holy Spirit, which is called baptism, but there are many {fillings. We all need to be filled | daily with His power if we are to reveal the Christ to men. When He entered humanity assembled in the upper room. His.coming had a marked effect upon the waiting and praying church. They were transformed im- mediately through His presence and power so that all Jerusalem was at- | tracted by the evidence of the power | of the Holy Spirit. manifested in the | uddresses delivered by the members of the church. The courageous convictions of the | empowered multitude of believers: {gave power to their personal testi- mony.- The people, who flocked to the upper room. were representa. {tives 'from =all lands. It appeared strange to these Jews of the dis- persion to distingulsh among the prayers, pralse and petitions that these bands of worshipers were of- fering to Jehovah the speech of their native tongue. The chosen witnesse of God were prepared to preach the gospel to every nation. The only explanation of the polyglot service that the curiosity seekers could think of was that they were filled with new wine. Peter's Powerful Sermom. Peter, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, took up the defense of the young church and preached the first Christlan sermon. Stigler has pointed out that this model sermon, in its adroitness, in the arrangement of the arguments, in its analysis, in its steering clear of Jewish preju- dices, in its appeal and effect. is without a peer among_the product of "uninspired men. The apostle’ spiritual vision gave him a concep- tion of the Old Testament that was new to his hearers. He saw In the rimultaneous praising of God In many tongues a fulfillment of the “Those who are interested in world organization agalnst war have, for he most part, regarded this problem as a political question. The World Alliance will attempt to show them that the problem can best be solved y co-operation with the religious forces of the nation working through church organizations. — EPISCOPALIANS NEARING GOAL IN RELIEF DRIVE Rev.

SEES INGERSOLL VIEWS OUTDONE BY MODERNS Special Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, December 1.—Robert Ingersoll, noted agnostic, would have been a mere tyro in his field of thought were he alive today, Dr. John T. Tigert, United States commissioner of education, told the Southern Meth- odist Union at its dinner here this week. He said: “Ingersoll sald Moses made mis- takes, but modern pulpiteers are de- nying the prophet ever lived.” The ten laws of Moses are superior to the entire 32,000,000 laws that men have passed since then, he declared. Stressing the benefits of co-opera- tion, Dr. Tigert asserted: “If I find & man in my bureau who won't co-operate I put him out. I don’t care if there is a civil service law; I've found a way to get rid of men of that sort.” Because enthusiasm is the salient and outstanding feature of people who accomplish unusual things the continued growth of Southern Meth- odism is assured, he declared. Dr. Tigert said his knowledge ot Methodism was a result of his father's and grandfather’s having been Meth- odist bishops. He sald the Methodist denomination had a greater numter of communities throughout the world than any other Protestant denomina- tion. leaving a balance BIBLE CLASS IN CHARGE.
