Followiug the couanibstou * report
at Antioch of the decialou of the Jeru-
ealciii church, Paul and Baruabas and
Others continued their evangelism in
that city (ch. 15:36). These leaders
soon felt the need of revisiting the
scene*' of their former labors (v. 36),
hut when It came to the organization
of their party, Paul refused to accede
to the decision of Barnabas that John
Mark should accompany them ive. 37,
35, see Acts 14 13). So sharp a con-
tention arose that two parlies were or-
gauDed. That Paul later forgave
Mark is evidenced by his tender refer
euces to him.
I. A Closed Door. Ch. 16:1.8. Paul a
companions for this second mission-
ary tour were Silas (15:40). Luke
(see use of word “wo,” v. 13), and
Timothy (v. 1-3). The latter came of
good ancestry, had good training and
was of good report, still to avoid con-
tention he submitted to the rite of
circumcision. Pauls work was to
promulgate the Jerusalem decree, to
establish or to confirm the churches
and to add to tlieso churches new con-
verts But ti,at did not entirely ful-
till Pauls commission (9:16). The
word "Asia" (v. 6) means the Roman
province of Asia and, wisely obeying
the Spirit's direction, Paul passed on
until lie came to the seaport town of
Troas. At a later time Paul spoke
the "word of the Lord Jesus" in Asia
with wonderful effect (19: 1, 8, 19,
36, 27). It must have burned within
the bones of Paul thus to be re-
trained, but it did not serve as an ex-
cuse for him to take a vacation, but
rather to seek new fields wherein ,to
preach. Thus he came to Troas.
II. The Macedonian Call. V. 9-13.
Paul had several epochmaklug vi-
sions; on the Damascus road (9:3, 4

tha time of his shipwreck (27:23),
and the one we are now considering.
A vision is a knowledge of the need
und of the resources at one’s com-
mand. Grecian beauty, philosophy,
art and culture needed Christ.
Christ as a resource was adequate
und available to supply that ueed.
This visiou Paul saw: through it God
called him to Macedonia. "We”
(ttie first U3e of that pronoun in the
hpok of Acts), Paul aud Luke, lmme-
uiateiy essayed to obeyi
til. The Open Door, v. 14, 15. On
what seeming tribes does history
turn! An outcast wandering Jew
coming to help a proud, cultured, in-
tiuential foreign city, but lie bears the
Gospel which alone can be of help
to them. Paul did nut wait to "in-
vestigate the field" nor to establish
a working organization. Me' knew
a better point ofVontact, and that was
Jilin* colli t0 gn(j those in that city who knew
God even though ignorant of Christ.
He began by preaching Jesus, not
comparative religions,* nor. did he
seek to found “community centers"
with soup kitchens and social uplift.
Haul knew that to elevate the individ-
ual b> establishing him In the faith of
Christ would soon result in commu-
nity uplift. On the other hand, a
faith which evaporates in words und
does nut give tangible, concrete evi-
dence In works may well be chal-
lenged as to its being genuine. There
was no supernatural direction as to
what part of Macedonia Paul was to
visit, aud exercising his common
sense, Paul went at once to the prin-
cipal city, lie did not begin at once
Lo preach the Gospel (v. 12 E. V.),
but waited und watched for an oppor-
tunity, doubtless praying much for a
lavoraole opening (Ch. 13: 14; 17:2;
16:4).
The "man of Macedonia seems to
have been a wptnan unless we consider
the Philippian jailor. This open air
meeting was one of the must notable
in history. The Lord opened the
heart of pjous Lydia and it was the
turning point of the evangelization of
Europe and America and the world.
God must upeu the hearts of men and
women (John 6:4 1, 46; Epll. 1.17, 18;
Luke 21:46), and tills he is willing
and glad to do. The steps of this
womans conversion are clearly
marked and present a good type. (1)
She went out to pray (v. 13). (2) Bhe
heard the word (v 13, 14; see ulso
John 6:21). (31 Shu hud her heart
opened by (he Lord (V. 14). (4) She
gave heed to the tilings which were
spoken" (v. 13 and Mark 16:16). (6)
Sue made public confession of her
