In the story of our great Aims-

out slaughter upon Christian*. Je-
rusalem does not furnish for him

A crusade of piTsnculIon only can

venture for the evilm tlnn of Chris-

It is noon. The sun pours its
■blistering rays down u|*ui the Da
mas. an plains. An angry Haul
paid on wtili his company to
wards the city where lie is to car
ry out his liii|iiisltlon. Suddenly
• light shines aisive the hrlghtliesM
of noonday snn. Saul falls to the
ground Tile company Is aston-
ished A voice s|s'aks Into the
dejiliis of Saul's soul "Haul, Saul,
why pel'sei iitest tlioii me?"
We can hardly imagine the feel

this sudden arrest of ids steps. ;
Contemplate If you will Ihe as-i

that In' is lighting against Oort

lie verily thought he was doing
tlie will of Oort. When (lie Lord
s|s>ke into l lull ii|s-n conscience,
Haul of Tarsus listened, then ask-
ed, "Is<rd, what will thou have
me to do?" This unin of action
did a grant deal more than mere-
ly desist from action. He was
ready to do something. The Lord
directed him to eoutinue his Jour-
ney, The Journey was continued,
hut I lie ,pur|N>ae was ehangod.
We cannot doubt that the pic-
ture of Stephen's martyrdom IliiHh-
ed hack and fortli through (lie
mind of Saul al this moment. Ya
guc, strange thoughts tilled Ills
mind His eyes were closed to
vision. It was not natural dark-
ness Hint hllndi-d him: it was
tlie dazzling splendour of a new
light that had come Into hi* soul,
"Lord, what wild thou have me
to doY" If not tlie task iiimui
which lie had entered, what could
it lie? It was all ii very strange
j situation which confronted him.
. Ii had dawned U|s>n him at Iasi
ilmt lie had been wrong, woefully
j wrong. The shock of the sit nation
J wits too much for Saul. Lifted
I from flic ground by his companions
and led by them because of Ids
| blindness, he eiiDie into DniiuiMcu*.
And he came Into Damascus
praying and continued praying.
Thin Is the best way out of per-
plexity. As he prayed Ihe Lord
s|sike to one Ananias tlml he
should go Into tlie street called
Straight to the house of one .III
tilings I lie Lord would have lliui
do.
Ananias came and brought the
message of the laird to Saul. Then
the hllndiies of Saul dropisul fnuu
Ids eyes as scales. I Iis eye* open-
ed mi another world, a world with
Jesus us Its center. The old Haul
ol Tarsus breathing mil slaughter
hud passed. A new creature In
Christ Jesus had come into being,
a chosen vessel of salvation for
tlie lieullles, a man eouslraiued
In ihe love of Christ.
The translation of a great soul
from the kingdom of darkness in-
to ihe kingdom of light is a most
momentous event. It is a Jarring
ex|ierlenec. It is overwhelming
In Its nature in a mighty soul like
that of I 'ii til To turn about the
tides of conscience and send them
into new channels is a task
wrought only by the grace of HimI.
(Irace, heneufortli, the griuv of
Jesus Christ, was an outstanding
though: with Haul. It Is the hope
of salvation, It is tlie salutation
of ills epistles, and tlie frequent
benediction of id* leave taklnga.
