The ancient writers, however, are unanimous in describing the city as one of the foulest and most depraved in the world. Cosmopolitan in disposition, the citizens acted as If they were emancipated from every law, human and divine. Licentiousness, superstition, quackery, indecency, every fierce and base passion were displayed by the populace; their skill In coining scurrilous verses was notorious, their sordid, fickle, turbulent and insolent ways rendered the name of Antioch a byword for all that was wicked. Their brilliance and energy, so praised by Cicero, were balanced by an incurable levity and shameless disregard for the first principles of mortality. So Infamous was the grove of Daphne, five miles out of the city, filled with shrines to jipollo, Venus, Isis, and crowded with theaters, baths, taverns and dancing saloons, that soldiers detected there were punished and dismissed from the imperial service.

Like every Gospel message, it led straight to a presentation of the Good News of the Messiah come, with a free offer of salvation to all men. So stirred were the hearers that they wanted Paul to. preach again, and between whiles he was thronged with Inquirers eager to hear more about this way. 'The popularity of the message provoked the Jealousy of the Jews, and the missionaries were driven from the synagogue, but not until Paul had announced the momentous decision, "We turn to the Gentiles." That marked the Rubicon of Christianity. The new wine of the living Gospel could not be contained in the old wineskins of the Jewish order.

From that day to this the Gospel has been preached to every nation even as Paul and Barnabas preach it to the Jews. Judgment for the ulaiutllf. 1 Leyy Brothers JJry (foods company ts. tht First State Bank of Bay City, garnishment: dismissed by plaintiff. I.
