THE LATEST HOWLER
Patti's Las* Jonrnay to Jerusalem
Acts 20:17-21, 28-30; II Corinthians
11:28
Rev. Camuel D. Price, D. D.
A lively time is one way of describ
ing the experiences of Faul as he was
busy with his third missionary journ
ey. Romance in real life ran often
outdo anythin* in fiction. Read Acti
20-21 for a thrilHng record.
Three months were spent in Cor
inth which hid been visited on the
previous journey. This time "Gala-
tlanc” and “Romans" wire written
while in that city, which with “I had
II Corinthians" make n record of four
epistles while on this third mission- (
ary trip. The Corinthians respond-:
ed to Paul’s request for an offering
for the poor Jerusalem Jews and the
amount was ho larce that a plot was
laid to seize it while Paul was on
route by water to Syria. Then the
itinerary was chanced and a party of
at least nine made the r?‘*i”n journey
by way of Macedonia a id Philippi, j
At the Latter city Dr. Luke, the
of Acts, joined the company, as is
indicated by a return to the ‘we
passages, verses 20-21.
At Troas the meeting with the
brethren continued till after mid
night and was interrupted an Euty-
chus went to sleep in an upper win
dow and fell out to his death on the
pavement below. The power of God
was present, through Paul, to restore
to life and the lid lived again in
their midst. The sacrament of
“breaking bread” was observed and
the Apostle continued his journey
along the coast of Asia Minor. He
wan eager to reach Jerusalem in time
for the Feast of the Passover and
avoided i stop at Ephesus, where he
labored for three years at the begin
ning of this very tour.
There was need for a conference
with the leaders of the Church in
Ephesus, so a break in the journey
was made at Miletus and a runner
Hcnt to Ephesus, a distance of thirty
miles. Soon the elders were with
Paul for the conference so greatly de
sired by their former preacher and
pastor. Every minister and teacher
is concerned for the continued well
being of those with whom he has
worked. There is always value in
a follow-up to learn how things are
progressing.
With heart reviewing frankness
Paul reminds these leaders that he
had sought in every possible way to
be their helpful friend during those
years of recent service. It was quite
like ah audit of accounts. Though
Paul had been their teacher he tells
them that he had maintained lowli
ness of mind and had suffered se
verely as he did not spare himself
in any way.
Since these elders would now take
Paul's place as bishop they must be
both particular and zealouy in their
own ministry. Theirs was a great
responsibility. That they might be
spiritual}* equipped for the service in
hand Paul commended them to God
who was able to build them up so
they would be sufficient. Though
Paul had been reviewing his own life
by way of example he places a higher
authority before them as he reminds
Before separating there
vice of prayer in which the Presence
them of the words of the Lord Jenu
was recognized in their midst. Tears
flowed freely because of the
in separation, especially us nil were
conscious that they would never meet
again, for arrest at Jerusalem was
impending. Thus upborne in prayer
and human friendships Paul was
‘brought on his way unto the ship."
