The Acts of the Apostles (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Acts of the Apostles

The Acts of the Apostles are so rich in variety and interest that they are more frequently studied in schools than any other book of the Bible. Students turn to a historian who is picturesque, accurate, statesmanlike in appreciating vital issues, and clear-sighted enough to keep a just balance between the movement in which he himself is an actor and the other world-movements of his age. And yet, strangely enough, it is in this very wealth and variety that the danger of the study of the Acts lies, for men are tempted to linger, as it were, so long upon the outskirts of the citadel, or beneath its walls, that they fail to find the presence chamber of the King within.

The following lessons are drawn up with a view of leading teachers and pupils, whilst availing themselves of every modern research and accessory, to study the Acts as a whole instead of dwelling upon its exterior and incidental parts. If the student would find the secret of the greatest of all movements he must pass beyond the glamour of the knighthood of St. Peter and St.
