CHURCH TWO YEARS OLD. | { i 1 | |1t TAR, WASHINGTON, Sunday School Lesson PAUL'S VOYAGE AND SHIP- WRECK.—Acts, xxvil.1.44. Golden Text—Be of good cheer; I; be not afraid.—Matthew, 2T Bible Sunday, which commemorates he 400th anniversary of the publica- tion of William Tyndale's translation of the New Testament into English, finds us_studying the thrilling story of Paul's voyage and shipwrec The intensely in teresting and graphic record that Luke has given to us furnishes excel- lent illustration of what it cost the makers of the New Testament to give to the world the gospel. The vivid story of the apos- tle’s experience upon the Alexan- dria wheat ship, that helped carry the Lords ap- pointed representative to Rome as a prisoner of the Roman empire may well be used by those who will observe the coming Sunday as a Golden Rule day, when by sacrifices and self-denial will aid the children of the Near ast by sending them wheat from America to keep them from starving and develop them into a generation of living epistles, who will transform and reclaim the Near East for the Lord Jesus by their lives Ramsay has pointed that Paul had probably come into his family pos; sessions when he left Caess 1 Rome. A new era in the wo tory was opened when the distinguish ed prisoner left under the guard of Ju lius, with other prisoner: upon the small coast-trading ship, that brousht them In 15 days to Myra, whei they re-cmbarked upon the wheat ship whidh was a large vesscel for that time. No regular lines were run upon the Mediterranean, so that they took the vesscls that gave promise of helping them along from ¢ place to another, where they could take an other boat that would speed them on toward their destination. We owe to Luke, who was permitted to accom- pany Paul, together with the apostle’s personal attendant, Aristurchus, the most vivid sea story of 1 antiquity It is the only one found in the Hible. It is the most valuable record of travel that has come down to from the ancient Graeco Roman world rith, in “Vovages a wreck Paul, has indicated the aceuracy and consistency of Luke's statements concerning the journey by his exhaustive studies and investiga tion. Smith claims that while the writer of the Acts could not have been a seaman, sinc his language is not re cision and knowledge of nautical af fairs revealed in Luke's graphic story of the voyage proves that he was an alert eve-witness of evel event of Paul's journey from Cae Rev.

The craft creaked beneath the huge waves that beat upon it and rolled over its deck: until the heroic efforts of the captain and crew appeared to be in vain. De spair paralyzed their efforis and filled them with frenzy. came course without over the Under New Management. No one who has never been in a leaking vessel during a storm can un- derstand the strain of the officers and crew and passengers on board that wheat ship during the time it drifted through the stormswept Adriatic Sea. At the beginning of their experience they had expected that they would be wrecked upon Africa’s dangerous shore between Tunis and Tripoli. All on board gave up any hope of the ship's standing the storm except Paul and his two companions. The cap- tain and crew were ready to desert the ship at the first favorable oppor- tunity. The soldiers. true to Roman custom, were prepared to kill the prisoners in case of a shipwreck. The darker the outlook the clearer became God’s purpose, presence and power to the praying prisoner. Peril drives most people fo the throne of grace, while prosperity has a tendency to hinder many from realizing God's presence in their affairs. Paul found poise in prayer. God revealed His plan to save the ship to His praying servant. He made it clear to the apostle that Paul would take command of the ship and save all on hoard. IHe showed to him how He planned to have the prisoner of Rome enter the capital city equipped with the super- natural prestige and power necded for he apostile’s work with the Roman, who was a man of power. While all others were disturbed, Paul found peace in the Master's presence and promise in the hour of darkness and danger. Paul sought to cheer and comfort the people by imparting to them his own confidence and courage. It was not long before the one, whose warn- ings they had rejected, because they considered him to be an impractical, plous preacher, suddenly became the leader and recognized director of af- fairs on board the distressed boat. Although he was only a passenger and a prisoner, yet he practically took command when he rebuked those re- sponsible for refusing to heed his warnings at Fair Haven, so that they would be encouraged to listen to his prophecy now, when he assured them that all on board would be saved. The fact that the ship was under new management became apparent when the seamen, who had detected by the sound .of the breakers and ng | | important The | floating | D. C., SATURDAY, ) | i ing land, plotted to escape in the boats | under the pretext that they were about “to lay out anchors from the bows.” Paul prevented their escape by pointing out their cowardly plan to desert the ship and bring all into peril. Upon the apostle’s suggestion, the cen- turion issued the orders and the sol dlers prevented thelr leaving by set ting the boat adrift. Saved From Shipwreck. *aul called upon them to get reads for the task of the coming morning by | calling upon them to eat and sleep. He assured them of their source of safety, when, taking bread, he poured | out his thanksgiving prayer before the soldiers, sailors and passengers. Most of those present were idolaters. It opendg up the way for them to be converted after he succeeded in res suing them from the wreck, through his sagacious plan. The seamen, whom he had kept on board, obeved the cap tain's commands, which no landlubber could have done. When he ordered them to cast loose the anchor, unlash the rudder paddles and steer straight for the beach, they were encouraged by Paul's attitude to try and make a landing. Although they had unloaded the wheat in an effort to beach the | boat, they failed to save it. The cur-{ rent of the narrow channel that cuts the small Island of Salmonetta from | Malta formed sandbars by meeting the tlde of the bay, now called St | Paul's.
