NUMBER 4iJ REVIEW. (loMcn with great power gave the apostles witness ot the resurrection ot the Loid Je.Mis; and great grace was tipou tham all. Act 4 33. Viiir. A I).

30-37. Jerusalem. I hrielly reviewing the lessons of the quarter, it will bo well to uotu some things concerning the book hu hav been studying, the Acts of the Apostles Is uoi uu account uf tho doings of all the apostles, or of all the doings of any oi ineir number, but tboso acta which had most to du with tho planting ot tho ChrUttnn church. The eighth lesson was: AnnnUa and tiapphira. It was the story ulayrcat una startling sin, by which the picture wo have so far had ol the itiluol church was sadly darkened, and ClniMiaiis ol every ago aro taithumy warned.

I lie sin was not lilug, muieiy, out lying to tno noiy tihosi. As an uticuiut to give a falto nnd religious zeal, it was uu act ot uypoerlsy tho prompt-iug inutivc to which was vanity mixed with covetoiisiuss. Its quick detection and spicily ami teiribio punishment, deiuoiistruiu tho imuosMbiliiy of deceit and God deep abhor-leuce of rciigious preteuce. Tbo ninth lesson was l'crnctition Rentwtd. Tho swift pun-ishmeiit ut Ananias and.

Supptiira tided uelievers and unbelievers with "great feur." Then, eutuo season ol iresU ptospeiity, of gracious works of heal-inu ul iiicu's bodies us well as their eouls. I'hls ought to have pleased all luokets on. Hut the Sudducees were oil til. other baud, only ungered. Laying hituds on tho uponlles, they cast them into prison, whence, however, uu nugcl brought them safety forth.

1 his was for ilium a new opportunity to attu-t their courage, unit to declare lh ir puipoae to ubey ood rather luau men. 1 uu tenth lesson was 'J hv Seven Chosen. Wo have seen, the first greut lu which oust shadow over thu Itio ot the church, and have heio tho account of thu first dissension which threatened its unity and peace. Certain Gentile Chritiiuus, calitd (iieeiaus, complained that their poor had been neglected lu the daily dismbuiiuii ot the abounding chanties of ihu church. God over.uled thin complaint a a menus to the iusiiiiiUou of a now order of servanu In tho uhurcb, called tho seven.

Thereby thn coinplauiis were siieticed, nnd tho aposties left free lor spiritual work. Wo were particularly interested In what wo wero taught inspecting tbo proper qualification for tho most so-ctilar office iu the chuich: good ropnto among men, spiritual character or fulners ot thu Holy Spirit, and wisdom. Our eleventh and last lesson wits: The fHrst Christian Martyr. This was Stephen, the loremost in grace and power of all the sevon. Going Irom house lo lions in his care for the poor, hu did great wonders and miracles, and, when opposera rose up to dispute with him hu answered with resistless wisdom Teaching that the temple und its ritual service were give way to more spiritual worship, he was urresicu, laiseiy uocusea, ana stoned.

His talthiul preaching produced conviction without conversion. Ilui a glorious vision of tho exalted Jesus, standing as if to receive lnui to himself, sustained Ins faith; and. with angelic face, nr.iying for his murdorers, aud commending his spirit tit thu Lord Jesus, he "foil asleep." Two other points uf great inlotnst woro the appearance of Saul ot Tarsus on the scune as a helper of the murder, and leader lu thu persecution which followed, and the use which God made of thu perseculiou to promotv hi own gracious purpose. "They that woro scattered abroad went everywhere preaching the word Thus, tor the present, we have done with the church at Jerusalem. Wo shall now have to trace the work of tbo upotles in Judiua and Samaria, and regions even more remote.
