open to serious loss because their fire insurance is
based on pre-war instead of present high levels of

word of God with all readiness
of mind.” Hostile Jews of Thes
salonica, however, came to Be
rea and stirred up trouble for
Paul and, with a Berean escort,
he went on to Athens.
The city of Athens was well
furnished with gods, but the
people were totally ignorant of
the true God. The unknown god
whom they ignorantly worship
ped was the true God whom
Paul would present to them. It
was a difficult audience to whom
Paul preached but Paul had a
message to deliver and he did so
with skill and adroitness. Start
ing out, as the great Demosthe
nes always did in greater and
happier days, Paul addressed
them as “Men of Athens.” He
appealed to them on the ground
of their very manifest interest
in religion and claimed their
sympathy on the ground of that
interest.
As Richard Roberts, the noted,
British praecher, says: “That ad-
dress was perfect in its way. Its
rhetoric was impeccable, its log
ic and sequence of thought
I flawless; it had apt quotations
I from the Greek poets; and its
■ philosophical tone was beyond
reproach. But Paul knew he had
missed fire.”
Although Paul had never tried
| harder then when preaching in
Athens, it is evident that he had
I never failed more completely.
He failed even to stir up contro-
I versy. He was met only with rid-
■ icule, which is very hard for
anyone to take. While Luke de
clares, “Certain men clave to
him and believed,” it is evident
that Paul himself felt that he
| had failed.
From Athens, Paul went to
: Corinth. 50 miles away, situated
■on the little neck or land con
' necting northern and southern
I Greece.
In the city, however, Paul
found some staunch friends in
Aquila and Priscilla, a Jewish
couple, formerly inhabitants of
Rome, but who had been driven
out by the persecution of Jews
by Claudius and were now resi
dent in Corinth. The man was a
tent-maker, like Paul, and the
famous apostle made his home
with them for a time, practic
ing his trade and gradually en
tering upon his work of spread-
I ing the gospel in the communi
ty.
As usual, Paul’s work began
with the Jews in Corinth. It was
not long, however, before he re
alized that they would not join
with him, and he turned to the
Gentiles.
One noteworthy addition to
Christianity from the Jewish
group, however, was Crispus, the
ruler of the synagogues, men
tioned by Paul later as one of
the few he had personally bap
tized during the 18 months he
spent in Corinth. Among the
Gentiles, Paul’s mission met
with success.
At first in Corinth Paul labor
ed alone; soon afterwards, how
ever, he was assisted by Silas
and Timothy. A vision which
Paul had in this heathen city
is remarkable in its encouarg
ing power. Once again Christ
appeared to Paul, somewhat dis
consolate and discouraged, and
told him not to fear, but to

IS YOUR LIVER
CRYING FOR HELP
because of constipation or faulty di
gestion? If you feel bilious, sour,
bloated with gas, headachy, blue, |
grouchy, you may be putting too big !
a burden on your liver. Retained un
digested food becomes putrefactive, i
causes toxins, which overload the
liver, keeping it from working prop
erly. Then is the time to relieve your
tired liver by letting Calotabs help

partially digested matter from your
stomach and intestines. Nothing acts
just like good old Calotabs. Use as di

speak out boldly, “for I have
such people in this city.” Some
thing like Jehovah’s encourage
ment to the old prophet Elijah,
but here Christ was claiming
souls which had not heard of
him.
Paul had tried worldly wisdom
and the intellectual appeal in
Athens. It had failed. He came
to Corinth and preached Jesus,
and him crucified. It succeeded.
We never hear of Paul endea
voring to base his religious pleas
upon any other foundation aft
er this. Modern preachers could
think on this fact. Not great
buildings, nor immense budgets,
