for all ages. The method
which resulted in success

The True Missionary Method
ssßl'aul came to Corinth a stranger in
city. He did not have an
agent to do his advertising;
did he have his photograph
BBftit in the daily paper with sensa-
announcements, upon his arrival
Corinth. He did not have a trained
with him; neither did ho have
salary guaranteed. His method in
a foothold in Corinth was as
" B 1 - Finding a home (v. 2). This he
with Aquila and Priscilla, Jews
i:® 10 wero recently expelled from
■ by the cruel edict of Claudius.
Jews, he found natural affiinity
them.
IgB?. He toiled for his daily bread
3). He was of the same craft
■th them, being tent makers. Every
among the Jews was taught
trade by means of which he
gain a livelihood should occa
require. One of the rabbis said
(■■at he who failed to teach his boy
trade taught him to steal.
iB II - Preaching in the Synagogue at
(vv. 4-8).
Though'compelled to toil for a
B-ing while getting a foothold In
Bnrinth. ho did not lose sight of his
work (v. 4). He reasoned in
synagogue every Sabbath, persuad-
the Jews and Greeks.
■His activity was increased when
>s and Timothy came (v. 5). This i
from three causes: (1) They
Brr lit good news from the church at
Bhessalonica fl Thess. 3:6). To hear
the steadfastness of those who had
i '|B>tifessed Christ under our ministry
At” t».'&• w vigor into our labors. (2)
mb > vSrought pecuniary gifts from the
Bhicedonlan churches (Philip. 4:15:
Bl Cor. 11 :9). Being relieved from the
!Bieeess:ity of toil for a living, they now
■could devote more time and energy
■to the preaching of the gospel. (3)
(■Silas; and Timothy became assistants
Paul in the work, thereby strength-
BRming his hands so ns to enable him
B to accentuate his efforts.
3. Paul opposed (v. 6). His In-
U creased activity was met with in
ll creased opposition. This can. always
■ be expected.
4. Paul announces his purpose to
I turn*ii the Gentiles (v. 6). Because
El of their blashphemy and opposition he
II ceased topwork among the Jews.
| There is a time when good judgment
|| causes one to abandon work where
| efforts have been fruitless, but it is
| difficult to know just ■hen to do it.
I 5. He did not go far away (v. 7).
I I He remained sufficiently near that
1:1 those whose hearts God touched could
|.l easily find him. It is likewise true
B that although Christ is obliged to de-
U f r< ”fi the soul that refuses Him
: I entrance, He lingers with yearning
| I love around that heart.
I 6. His success (v. 8). Crispus, the
I chief ruler of the synagogue, was con-
I verted. Perhaps the severity of his
| action in turning away from them
I moved Crispus to action.
111. Paul’s Vision (vv. 9-11).
His experiences since coming to Eu-
I rope were very trying. He needed en-
I ' "nragement at this time. It is just
■ like the Lord to come at the time of
I the servant’s greatest need. Note the
Lord's words to him:
L “Be not afraid.” When one is
B executing the commission of the I,ord
■ he need not be afraid.
2. "Speak, and hold not thy peace.”
■ Ihe one who has heard the voice of
■ God cannot refrain from speaking—
■ cannot be still.
3. “I am with thee.” The Lord is
'*;iv'th everyone who faithfully carries
his commission.
“No man shall set on thee to hurt
f thee.” The one sent by the Lord to do
■ a wmk is immune from danger and
until his work Is done.
d “I have much people in this city.”

the great cities the Lord has His
