SATURDAY, N( Sunday School Lesson immediately out of the hands of the procurator, who faced the perpiex- ing situation of preparing a state- ment that would justify his official acts in reference to Paul. He saw that it was God's way opening up an opportunity for him to preach the gospel in Rome. Festus tried to find a way out, but he had no alternative He had to allow the appeal, which meant for the apostle a long journey to Rome at the expense of the gov- ernment. Agrippa, a son of Herod, who was caten by worms; a great grandson of Herod the Great and a grand nephew of Herod Antlpi who beheaded John the Baptist, accompanied by his sis ter Bernice, visited Festus about that time to offictally recognize him as the representative of the Roman Empire He was the last of the Herods and the Maccabee: up in.the palace of the Caesars and had been appointed by the emperor with the title of king to succeed Philip and Lysanias in ruling their tetarchies. He controlled the ap pointment of the high priest and had supervision of the temple. Ie was living a shameless, fmmoral life with his own sister Bernice, who was noted for her beauty, and subsequent ly was to try her charms upon Ves pastan and Titus. When they arrived Iestus sought Agrippa’s advice, hop- ing for some suggestion that would relieve him from his embar caused by Pau In compltance the wish Agripph to see the prisoner and hear his sto “estus arranged for Paul to come before Agrippa.

Acts, xxvi.19. Delays in the administration of jus- tice did not destroy Paul's faith in law and order. Although the apostle knew that at any time during his two ars' _ imprison- ment Felix would have been pleased to have granted him freedom, if some of his friends would present him bride, Paul de- clined to be a party to anything that would weaken the vespect for law nd government. American may well follow the example of the great apostle in his attitude toward the authority of the law and its duly appointed of- ficers. The Scriptures are silent con cerning the events that took place during the two years that Paul waited for Felix to issue the order for his dis- charge from fmprisonment. The in- fluence of that period can be traced in the history of the Caesarean Church and in the Apostle’s life. The enforced rest and recuperation of physical strength fitted Paul for the task that awalited him. Another element that entered into| his {mprisoument was the desire of Felix to satisfy the influential Jewish ecclesiastics. Ie failed, for it was due to their complaints against his admin istration that he s recalled by his/| government and Porcius Festus ap- pointed as procurator by Nero. It was common for all relring officiuls to| “clear the docket” by discharging all uncondemned prisoners.

The Progressive Rible class of Lin- coln Temple Congregational Church has selected as a schedule of studies for the next two months the general theme “Ploneers in Religious Move- nents.” The subject tomorrow will be Zwingli.” The ciass meets every Sun- day at 10 am. in the library of the church and is open to both men and women. The officers of the class are: A. Langston Tayior, president; Rev. . W. Brooks, teacher; Miss M. I3, Wrims, secretary, and J. R. Stack- house, treasure man_citizen, claimed the protection of Caesar. No evidence was pre- sented to substantiate the charge: which the apostle met hy pleading “not guilty.” He insisted that he was innocent, denving that he had com- mitted any one of the alleged crimes against the Jewish law. a; temple and against the state. Festus recognized that the prisoner had not committed any one of the crime or at least that they had made no case against Paul. He proposed that the apostle return to Jerusalem voluntarily and meet the religious charges before the Sanhedrin, assur- | ing him that he would be present and ersonally guaranteed him a fair trial. Paul's refusal of the request of | the procurator and his appeal to Caesar placed Festus in an embarrass- ing position. He had recognized that the apostle’s imprisonment was due to what he called “certain questions of their own superstition; and espe- cially his_assertion of the resur- rection.” They were the real crimes of the prizoner in the eves of his accusers. 1f the governor had not desired to curry favor with the Jerusalem authorities, he would have given Paul his freedom. The apostle saw that he would be signing his own death warrnat. if he agreed to comply with the suggestion of Festus. 1lis appeal to Caesar took the casa and assurance of a future life througi the resurrection of the Christ. Paul's appeal filled Festus with un easiness. He thought that the apostle was insane, when he wus really seek ing to stifle his own convictions. Many have tried to turn aside the earne eloquent appeal that they be saved by raising questions concerning _the preacher’'s personality and preaching.
