BRIEF SUMMARY.
CHRISTIAN tOI'RAGF, —Lesson Tor May 14th.
Text of the Lesson : Acts 4:8-22
REVISED VERSION.
8. Then Peter, filled
with the Holy Spirit,
said to them : Rulers
of the people, and el
ders of Israel ; 9. if we
are this day examined
in respect to a good
deed done to an impo
tent man, by what
means this person has
been made whole ; 10.
be it known to you all,
and to all the people of
Israel, that by tho name
of Jesus Christ the Naz
arene, whom ye cruci
fied, whom God raised
from the dear], by him
does this man "stand
here whole. 11. He is
tho stono that was set
at naught by you the
builders, which is be
come the head of tho
corner. 12 And there
is salvation in no other;
for neither is there any
other name under heav
en, that is given among
mon, in which we must
be saved.
13. And seoing tho
boldness of Peter and
John, and perceiving
that they wore unlearn
ed and obscure men,
they wondered : anil
they recognized them,
that they wore with Je
sus. 14. And behold
ing the man who had
been healed standing
with them, they had
nothing to say against
it. 15. But having com
manded them to go
asido out of tho coun
cil, they conferred
among themselves, 16.
saying : What shall we
do to these men ? For
that a notorious mira
cle has been done by
them is manifest to all
that dwell in Jerusalem,
and wo are not able to
ilony it. 17. But that,
it spread no fur
ther among tho people,
lot us strictly threaten
them, that they speak
henceforth to no man
in this name. 18. And
having called them,
they commanded them,
not to speak at all, nor
teach in tho name of
Jesus.
19. But Peter and
John answoring said to
them : Whether it is
right in tho sight of
God to hearken to you
rather than to , God,
judge ye. 20. For wo
cannot but speak tho
things which we saw
and hoard.
21. And they, having
further threatened
them, lot them go, find
ing no way to punish
them, on account of the
people, because all glo
rified God for that
which was done; 22, for
the man was above for
ty years old. on whom
thiH sign of the healing
had been wrought.
COMMON VERSION.
8. Then Peter, filled
with the Holy Ghost,
said unto them, Ye ru
lers of the people, and
elders of Israel,
9. If we this day be
examined of the good
deed done to the impo
tent man, by what
means he ib made
whole:
10. lie ii known onto
yon all, and to all the
people of Israel, that
by the name of Jesus
Christ of Nazereth,
whom ye crucified,
whom God raised from
the dead, even by him
doth this man stand
hero before you whole.
XI. This is the stone
which was set at naught
of you builders, which
is bocome the head of
the corner.
12. Neither is tlieio
salvation In any other ;
for there is none other
name under heaven
given among men,
wheroby we must bo
saved.
18. Now when they
saw the boldness of Pe
ter and John, and por
ccived that they were
unlearned and ignorant
men, they marvelled;
and they took knowl
edge of tliom, that they
had been with Jesus.
14. And beholding
the man which was
hoßlod standing with
them, they could say
nothing against it.
15. But, when they
had commanded thorii
to go aside out of the
council, they conferred
among themselves,
16. Saying,what shall
we do to those men V
for that indeed a nota
ble miracle hath been
•dono by them iH mani
fest to all them that
dwell in Jerusalem; ami
we cannot dony it.
17. But that it spread
no further among tho
people, lot. us strait,ly
threaten them, that
they speak henceforth
to no man in this namo.
18. And they called
them, and commanded
thorn not to speak
at all nor teach in the
name of Jesus.
19. But I’oter and
John answered and said
unto them, Whotherit
be right in the sight, of
God to hearken unto
yon more than unto
God, judge ye.
20. For wo cannnot
hut speak the things
which we have seen and
hoard.
21. So wlion they had
further threatened
them, they let them go,
finding nothing how
they might punish
them, because of the
peoplo; for all men glo
rified God for that
which was done.
22. For tho man was
above forty years old
on whom this miracle
of healing was shewed.
Verses 1-7 of this chapter, state the
connection ns clearly and briefly as
possible, 'l'ho let son opens with Peter
and John arraigned sn presence of the
Council. Apparently no definite
charge has been stated. It was de
signed to gather the charge from the
examination.
Vs B.—Filled with the Holy Ghost.
The promise of Christ is fulfilled;
Matt, x, 17-25, The influence of the
Spirit was shown in the boldness of
Peter ; a man who is not afraid is al
ways a power ; in his absolute plain
ness of speech; there are are a few
greater gifts than that of saying ex
actly what we mean, so that no one can
misunderstand us ; in his self-command,
his courtesy under provocation ; and in
his force ot argument, statement and
appeal.
Vs. (!. — The good deed done * * *
made whole. With a wisdom given
from above, Peter states his case, and
in stating it, confounds his adversa
ries. It was for a good deed—for
healing a cripple—that Peter and John
had been arrested, thrown into prison,
and were now arraigned as criminals.
One is reminded of Patrick Henry’s
plea in behalf of the imprisoned Bap
tist ministers, when lie read from the
warrant, “tor preaching the Gospel of
Jesus Christ,” reiterating and dwelling
on the words, till the judge, carried
away, rot by argument or eloquence,
but by the plain presentation of the
statement, said: “Mr. Sheriff, dis
charge those men ! ” In like manner,
true religion may reply to its persecu
tors, by pointing to its works, its re
sults.
Vs. 10.— By [in] the name of Jesus
Christ * * * by [in] Him doth this
man, etc. The use of this word “in.”
as “iu Christ,” carries with it a most
profound meaning. In does not pro
bably mean exactly the same as by. In
this ease, the work was in the name of
Christ, was iu His relation to mankind
and to His Father. The surrender of
a fugitive criminal is in a treaty. The
payment of a claimant is in the Wash
ington Treaty.
The name of Jesus Christ is uotHis
essential, inherent character, but the
relation which he holds to us. When
we are baptized into [not in] the name
of the Father, and of the Son, and of
the HolyJSpirit, we are baptized into
the Father as Lord, into the Sou as
Saviour, and into the Spirit as Sanctifi
er, or into obedience to the Father,
faith in the Son, and sanctification by
the Spirit. Every good work of bodily
or spiritual healing, is in his name, is
in Christ.
Vs. 11.— By your builders. As when
builders reject a stone, that is not so
shaped as to go readily into the wall,
but which is adapted to the chief, the
most important place. Head of the
corner. A stone fitted for the comer,
extending out on either side, binding
the whole structure together. The po
sition of usefulness is also the position
of honor.
Vs. 12.— Salvation in any other. A
most positive, sweeping, exclusive de
claration. Yet it does not preclude
the possibility of persons being saved
who have not heard of Christ, as for
example, those who lived before the
coming of Christ. But, whether con
sciously or unconsciously, whether in
unconscious infancy, or in age, all are
saved alone through Him, through His
merits and His atoning work.
Vs. 13.— Boldness. More exactly,
perhaps, freedom of speech, out
spokenness ; the verb means “to speak
all out.” They said exactly what they
meant; and they mean and believe ex
actly wbat fhey said. He who does
this is a man to be feared ; he is a pow
er. Ignorant. Better the revision ; or,
men in private station. Their confi
dence, their self-possession, their pru
dence of speech, was not the result of
conscious learning, or of exalted sta
tion ; hence the observers “marvelled.”
In connection with their boldness of
speech, their adversaries also remem
bered that formerly, they had seen
Peter and John among the followers
and associates of Jesus. We know,
though they did not know, that this
fact was one of tho secrets of their
courage, their knowledge of the truth,
their superiority to all the seductions
and threats of men.
Vs. 14. — Beholding the man, etc. It
is possible from verse 10, that the man
was present; whether voluntarily or
whether taken hy force, we do not
know. They could say nothing. They
could neither deny the fact, nor object
to the character of the miracle. And
equally, when men, in our day, aro
turned from worldliness and selfish
ness to self-denial, from sensuality to
purity, from profauity to prayer, the
enemies of Christ can say nothing
against it. Tho conversion of the sin
ner is the standing miracle, to attest
the truth, the origin, and the power of
the Gospel of Christ.
Vs. 15. To go aside. They did not
wish the apostles to know that they
conceded tho fuel ; or to know what
were their plans; or to know that there
were diversities of views among them.
F)uc there may have been bystanders
present, through whom tho apostles
'earned the facts ; orsorne of the priests
afterwards converted (vi. 7) may have
told them.
Vs. *l6. What shall we do ? This
was not the question of candor; or of
sincere conviction, as ii. 37. It was
the inquiry of mere prejudice, already
committed to the rejection of the new
religion. Ope is reminded of the ac
tion of the Jews, who first voted that
any ono who confessed that Jesus was
the Messiah should be put out of the
synagogues, and then axamined wit
nesses. That a notable miracle, etc. We
should expect them to say, “Since this
is so, let us believe and obey.” But
the next t erse shows a far different re
sult;.
Vs. 17.— That it spread. It, that is,
the miracle, and the talk about it. In
this name. Upon it, “as the basis of
their doctrine or authority.”— Hackett.
Vs. 18.— In the name of Jesus. They
did not object to their teaching what
ever else they pleased, so as they did
not teach in this name.
Vs. 19.— 1n the sight of God. In the
judgment of God, tried by the standard
which He has given. Judge ye. With
confidence, He sets the issue before
them, and then appeals to their con
science. To lay the question of duty
plainly before men, so that they cannot
shirk it, and then to leave the decision
of it with their conscience, is the great
achievem°nt of the preacher.
Vs. 20. We cannot. So Jer. xx 9.
The true prophet or apostle speaks not
because he ought, but because he must,
because he cannot help it. Which we
have seen and heard. There is nothing
of which we can speak with so much
power as of that which we have seen
and heard.
Vs. 21.— Finding nothing, etc. Find
ing no plausible reason, none that th*-
people would accept. All men. But
how fickle is popular favor. But lew
days passed betore these same people
were unanimous and eager in putting
Stephen to death.
Vs. 22.— For the men, etc. The mir
acle was the more marked, the longer
the period of the man’s lameness.
1. How does worldly courage differ
from Cliaistian courage ? What is the
source of the one, and the other? How
is each manifested ?
2. If we truly fear God, what effect
will it have on our fear of man ?
3. Which is the wiser, to foar God
and to defy man, or to fear man and to
defy God ?
4. What was the natural character
of Peter ?
5 What change had religion brought
in him ?
6. How can wo be free from fear,
how can we secure the truest courage ?

THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST.
For tba Index and Baptist.]
THE SEND AY-SCHOOL.
The Sunday-school is a place where
old and young, of both sexes, gather to
gether on the Sabbath day to study the
Word of God, and exchange ideas con
cerning anything that may be read or
heard having any relation to it. We
can there profitably discuss the ser
mons of the pastor; get opinions from
others which we may never have had ;
have our wrong views nullified; be more
definitely informed about some passage
of doubtful meaning; and, above all, be
better prepared to drop a good “seed”
that may spring up and bear whole
some fruit. How often, in our daily
walks, in our intercourse with our fel
low-men, is the chance given to speak
a word of consolation to some heart
sick, troubled friend or stranger. What
is there more soothing than some of
the blessed promises contained in the
Holy Book. We can get them from
any of the books which go towards
making up the whole law, but par
ticularly from the Psalms of David and
the Proverbs of Solomon, in the Old
Testament, and the Epistles of Paul in
the New Testament.
Nobody ought to be excused or allow
themselves to remain away from the
Sunday school except invalids, the fee
ble old people, arc! those whose do
mestic duties compel them to remain
at home.
There will always be found ready
and willing teachers for all classes ;
there is in some schools a regular and
a reserve corps of teachers ; the chan
ces for not being instructed are, there
fore, in common parlance, “mighty
slim.”
The officers rule with the hope
and intention of pleasing all who may
come ; the room is comfortably fitted
up—sometimes they go beyond their
means to further this end, which is a
very unwise plan. It is a great deal
easier to “ keep out ” than to “ get out”
of debt. Where tho scholars have to
be urged and pressed to contribute it
is very unpleasant, and often causes a
thinning out of tlie ranks. Religion
is obtained without money and with
out price, but the privilege of studying
the Word of God in connection with
others in a comfortable room, with
sweet music from an organ to accom
pany the singing, is not obtained with
out considerable expense.
I occasionally visit an “ Infant Class
Room,” that is well carpeted, taste
fully decorated with vines, grasses,
mottos, pictures, etc. Gold-fish in,
glass bowls on tables, are here and
there in the room. Canaixfeirds, in ca
ges hanging from exter-stofis attached
to the wall, sing sweetly, and assist in
keeping the little scholars wide awake.
Whenever a little visitor conies in from
another school, the class is almost al
ways increased by that little visitor.
Each of the little children are asked for
a nickel as regular as they are present.
It would do one good to see the drill
like system of each little girl or boy
dropping their nickel into the basket.
The Sunday-school is the place
where the newsboy is welcome, where
the boy with ragged clothes on is
treated with as much respect as the
one dressed in broadcloth, where the
shop girl is greeted with a bright smile
and a hearty hand shake from her
teacher, where those little girls who
are thinly clad are provided with warm
clothing, where everybody has a stand
ing invitation to meet and join in sing
ing praises to the giver of every good
and perfect gift.
Wicked, fast young men are some
times made to depart from their riot
ous way of living by banging on to the
Sunday-school if they do not attend
church.
The beautiful Sabbath morning is
passed away in a doze by a great many.
How much they miss cannot be easily
told ; but 11n- barm done to such per
sons is too piaiu to be worthy repeating.
I would in>:st upon every one the great
impoitHiic of yoing to Sunday-school,
and 'he incalculable benefit derived
from taking pait in the exercises.
