Tlae Gospel in Antioch. —Acts xi:
19-30; xii: 25.
Golden Text —The disciples were
called Christians first in Antioch.
Acts xi:26.
Verses 19-20 —Who were they that
were scattered abroad?
Had these men any authority from
the church to preach? (See Acts
xiii:4.)
Is it the duty of every Christian to
preach Christ, whether or not he has
been appointed by the Church to do
so?
Is it possible to enjoy the fullness
of God’s love, and never say a word
about it?
Are good people liable to be narrow
in their views?
Are persecutions and all sorts of
trouble, always helpful to the children
of God?
Some of these disciples seem to
have been narrow, and preached to
Jews only; others being broader,
preached to the Greeks also, what
made the difference in these men?
Which is the greater power to
broaden our views, and make us
love everybody; our environment, or
sinking deeper and rising higher in
the love of God?
Verse 21 —Whether a man is nar
row or broad, if he only preaches Jes
us, will God use him to extend his
kingdom? ,
Are any efforts to extend the king
dom of God ever in vain?
Verse 22 —Di 1 the news that Anti
och had received the Word of God
give the church at Jerusalem joy or
sorrow?
What news is the most joyous either
to an individual Christian, or to a
Church?.

What was the purpose of sending
Barnabas?
; Verses 23-24—What sort of a man
, was Barnabas?
Is it necessary, or not, to be filled
with the holy Ghost, in order to make
converts, or to comfort the children
of God, and are these results always
attained in the minisSry of a man
filled with the Holy Ghost? (This
question must be ansewered in writ
ing by members of the club.)
Do we exhort one another as much
as we should, to “cleave unto the
Lprd?”
Are half-hearted people well pleas
ing to God?
Verses 25-26 —Why did Barnabas
start off to Tarsus to seek Saul?
Does it frequently happen that two
holy men can do much more together,
than they could do working apart?

first called Christians?

callied previous to being called Chris
tians?

ecy, that is telling future events, giv
en to any person today?
Verses 29-30 —Should the church of
Christ today be a practical brother
hood, caring for one another, and help
ing each other financially, and in ev
ery other way, as the need may be?
Should not the church be doing for
its members the work now being done
by fraternal societies?
Chapter xii:2s —Barnabas and Saul
took the contributions from Antioch
up to Jerusalem to relieve the need
there, and then returned; was it just
as noble work as if they had been up
there preaching?
