months and then went on
Modern Salonlkt has been since tbe
Roman days of Thessalonlc* an im-
portant center, thriving and prosper-
ous of later year* till tbe recent Bal-
kan-Turklsb war.
I. At Thtaaaloniea (vv. l-») (1) Rea-
aantng (vv. 1-5) (a) The place. On
this second Journey Silas and Timo-
thy (v. 14) were Paul’* companions.
Recently driven from Philippi (I
Thess. 2:1-2) they at once repaired
to the synagogue upon roaebing the
city, knowing that there they could
gain a foothold with both Jew and
Gentile. It was Paul’* usual means
(v. 2 Am. R. V.). Doubtless during
tha two weeks the disciples used every
opportunity for discussion. Paul mad*
use of tbe Sabbath day of assembly al-
though Christians met on the first day
of the week for their own distinctive
service fActs 20:7). He also reasoned
frost tbe Scriptures which the Jews
so highly revered. The best agent
for doing personal work is tbe word
of God (Eph. 6:17; Jer. 23:29; Jas.
1:18; I Pet. 1:23). (2) Tho method.
Paul employed three, (a) He rea-
soned that Chriet must suffer. WhyT
(See Isa. 63:6; Math. 26:28; Heb.
9:22; John 19:36). Paul had only tbe
Old Testament, We have also the
New to bring to our atd. (b)That
“Christ must rise from the dead’'—like
Peter st Pentecost. Paul proved this
from the Old Testament. If we will
allow the Holy Spirit to “open tbe
Scriptures'’ to us we will find things
new and old and exclaim, that where-
as “ones I was blind now I see.” (c)
Mo “alleged and afllrmed” (set forth),
e. g., gave testimony that "this Jesus'
whom I proclaim unto you is the
Christ.” Paul knew that the histor-
ical Jesus was the glorified Christ, for
he had met him “in tho way” te Da-
mascus. Paul s manner of life in the
city as he lived and preached Jesus
was much that it contributed greatly
to his success. His “manner of life
was blameless” (Acts 26:4); he sup-
ported himself (I Thes. 2:9; II Thes.
S:S). (2) Reception (v. 6-10). At
first these men were received as from
Ood by large numbers (v. 4. 8ee
I Thess. 1:6-10). But the goftpel then
as now causes divisions. Not all pr>'
fessed followers of God know or ac-
cept the gospel. Paul's success
aroused the envy of the Jews Just as
every successful servant I* envied by
those of lesser light. Tbe charts
brought against Paul and Silas (v. 6)
was in largs measure true, and it was
a good testimony and tributo to their
effectiveness. It was also In accord
with Christ’s prophecy. (Math. 10:31;
Luke 12:53). It is the businoss of the
goepel to accomplish Just such re-
sults. We need moro of such as shall
turn tbe wrong side down and the
right side up. These men were ac-
cused of “saying that there Is an-
other King, one Jesue.”
II. At Berea, (v. 10-15). Th* dis-
ciples’ departure by night was an act
of prudence (Math. 10:23), and Paul
continued his great interest In the con-
verts he bad left. See the two letters
addressed to that church. Reaching
Berea Paul began as usual to preach
Jesus first of all to the Jews. The
cttlsene of Berea were “more noble”
and have continued to this day aa a
great Inspiration to Bible students
(witness tho Beroan series of lesson
helps). (1) They “received the word
with readiness of mind.” There was a
hunger for spiritual food and they
partook of It with a relish. Soma re-
ceive truth under compulsion while
others hunger for It. (See I Thess.
1:7; 8:10). (2) “Searched" (exam-
ined) the Scriptures dally. (8) Each
day they sought tbo mind of God.
Much of our present day Bible study
is Interesting and enlightening, but Is
not energizing nor evangelistic be-
cause It looks upon the Bible merely
as literature.
We6eed to study the Bible as did
the Koreans to know love and obey
Jesus as our Savior and king.
We need to study It as our guide
and counsel through life.
Those who “believed” as th* result
of such preaching and study were
wait grounded (1 Thess. 1:10).
After several weeks of such blessed
mtnletry the Thessalontsn Jewe in-
terfered, "stirring up and troubling the
multitude” (v. 14 Am. R. V.), end
Paul again moved on, this time t*
Athens In Greece while Silas and Tim-
othy remained for * further ministry
