Another pretty Sabbath day in

all little children everv where.
It’s a joy to see then little eyes
sparkle Christmas morning and
at the same time we should teach
them what it’s supposed to rep
resent.
We are made to wonder if a
certain class of people celebrated
the birth of the Savior as they
do now. What’s Lie matter?
The church hid her light, and
ttiat’s the only way thatfit pleas

they are in darkness and already

I. The ' oreads to 3amarla
<Acts 8:4-8; J 1 17 ; 2,A).
1. Philip Pi ’ilng the Gospel In
Samaria (vv. -!- ). Following the ston
ing of Stephe the enemies of the Lord
■were more aciive than ever In their
■effort* tn stamp out the new faith.
With Saul ns their leader they dragged
drum their lioi.o. : and imprisoned those
gwho confessed Christ, but the Devil
•overreached himself in this, for this
scattered the believers everywhere,
and they preached the Gospel as they
■went. The time !. „ow copie for the
-wltness-beari; * . extend beyond Je-
Tusalem and Judea rs the Lord had
■commanded. The Lord permitted the
persecution so as to scatter them.
2. Peter and John Visit Samaria
(w. 1-1-17; 25). When the Apostles
heard of Philip s work In Samaria they
aent two of their best'men to encourage
It. These men had discernment to
Iknow that the spirit had not yet fallen
upon the believers, so they laid hands
upon them and the Spirit was given
them. These Samaritans were really
■converted, regenerated, hut had not yet
heen filled with the Spirit. In this they
were like many church members today
•without the Spirit’s gift.
3. Philip Preaching to the Ethiopian
lEunuch (Acts 8:30-40). In the con
version of the eunucli we see the Lord’s
work still broadening. The Gospel was
first preached to the Samaritans who
were natirHiaiiy on the borderland be
tween the Jews and.tlie Gentiles. This
Ethiopian was in nil probability a Gen
tile, a proselyte to the Jewish faith. In
ihls conversion we see the work reach
ing afar, even on Its way to the ends
of the earth, lly divine direction Philip
left his great work in Samaria and wa3
directed to th eunuch: The Spirit of
■God directed him to go and Join him
self to the chi rlpt of the Ethiopian.
'The coming together of these two men
In the desert was providential. (1) The
• eunuch's employment on the way. He
was reading the Word of God. (2) The
absolute need of a preacher. The
eunuch was reading th® fifty-third
•chapter of Isaiah, one of the clearest
'testimonies of the Messiah In the Old
'Testament, yet was unable to under-
.stand it. The one tiling needed in the
.salvation of men if fin’ the saved man
to bring the ip tge to the unsaved.
■(B) Tin- imp, f Philip was .Tesus.
He began at the Scriptures and
preached .! The central theme of
the prone!. ll ' ■ ge should be Je
:sun. (-0 The muioh baptized. Asa
consequence of Phi dp’s preaching the
•eunuch prop • i baptism. Men who
accept the mi o of salvation in
Christ naturally demand baptism.
11. The Convention of.Saul (Acts 9:
j 1-80).
The great apo- of the Gentiles Is
now laid hold of by ilip Lord Jesus and
made a flaiuim. ,>iPl of the Cross to
the whole wori ilitis see the Lord
making ready fr i lie widest dissemi
nation of the ' : lof Ills grace.
111. The C ; I Spreads to Asia
Minor (Acl !). ' 1 35).
1. Peter at .ioppa. (Acts 9:32-43).
On his tour of nr.geliztng Peter came
■down to Joppa and lodged with Simon,
a tanner. Ihi -dinws the widening of
his sympathy in that a Jew was willing
to lodge with <... of such an occupa
tion.
2. The Coin jo.i of Cornelius (Acts
10). In the ci .-i nof tills Gentile
and the comb: ■>( Spirit upon him,
the middle wn: > irtitlon between
Jew and Gen. was broken down.
'The way was . open for the further
•outreach of the Gospel.
8. Paul’s V: and Missionary Journey
■(Acts 18, 14). The Spirit of God now
came upon tho rhurcli lor the definite
purpose of preaching the Gospel to the
whole world. Paul and Barnabas with
John Mark went out preaeliihg the
■Gospel through the provinces of Asia
Minor.
4. The Conditions of GentHe Salva
tion Settled (Ai ts 15:1-35). Before the
Gospel could be preached to the whole
■world the dispute in the church over
the condition of Gentile salvation had
to be settled, so a council was held at
Jerusalem in u’lileh these conditions
were Clearly settled. v

began to suffer some months
ago with womanly troubles, and
I was afraid I was going to get
in bed. Each month I suffered
with my head, back and sides—a
weak, aching, nervous feeling.

knew I was.getting worse. I
did not seem to find the right
remedy until someone told me of

I used two bottles before I could
see any great change, but after
that ft was remarkable how
much better I got. I am now
well and strong. I can recom
