BAXTER Falth Baptist Church Did you ever feel like yawning in church? You wouldn't have around the year 50 A.D. There was absolutely nothing dead about church in those days. It was the moat exciting era of church history. No matter where the gospel was preached, there was opposition. To be a Christian was to be an enemy. Persecution began in Jerusalem, at the time Stephen was stoned to death as he called upon God to receive his spirit and forgive bis murders (Acts 7:59-60). It spread through the city forcing many believers to fiee to far-off places because of the fier- ceness of the attack (Acts8:l1). Again and again, we read of instances of Christ's followers being put in prison, whipped, stoned, mocked and ostracized. Read the Acta o! the Aposties and find out for yourself. The church in those days was alive and vibrant. When they were "scattered abroad" by the Jerusalemn persecution, they "went everywhere preaching the word" (Acta 8:4). The more the authorities tried to stamp it out, the more the gospel message spread. Everyone was a vital missionary. They did not corne to a building on Sunday and sleep through some boring presen- tatiort. It was a team effort. These people were disturbers of their own com- munityl "These that have turned the world upside down are corne hither also," cried the dismayed inhabitanta (Acta 17:6). Real Christianlty was reachlng their doorsteps. The cburch that is not getting some opposition i the community is the church that is deadi Christ said: - "Woe unto you, when ail men shaH speak weil of you!1 for so did their fathers to the false propheta. " (Luke 6:26). Is today's church as vibrant and real? Somehow 1 feel that many are just piaying church. ILta fashionable to belong. In fact iL might even be good for business, or getting ahead sociallyl1 Yet one cannot help rememnberlng the words of the risen Christ as he addressed the church o! the Laodiceans, "Because thou sayest, I amn rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothlng; and knowest not that thou art wretchecl, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakecinesa do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eye-salve, that thou mayest see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent." (Rev. 3',17-19). We seem to live in the age of the puppet preacher. He performs his duties on Sunday to the liking of bis, congregation, in much the same way a puppet per- forms for the one who puls the strings. His main task seems to be not to rock the boat. Hence people can.go listen to him on Sunday and forget about himn on Monday.1 It is neyer popular to fight siri and corruption but the early church dld. Mfter Peter's stirring message on the day of Pentecost, we read, "When they heard this, tbey were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest o! the aposties, Men and brethren, what shahl we do?" (Acta 2:37). Peter preacbed at sin in the lives of the people. They knew what he was talking about, bence their question. And the' answer? "Repent and be baptized everyopie-of you" (Acta 2:38). This preacher was pulling no punches. "Repent" - turn away from your sin and receive Christ as your Saviour (John 1:12). How many times have you or someéone close t0 you said this?
