8832002:037 Stung to the heart by these words, they said to Peter and the rest of the Apostles,"Brethren, what are we to do?"

8832010:004 Looking steadily at him, and being much alarmed, he said,"What do you want, Sir?"
8832013:025 But John, towards the end of his career, repeatedly asked the people,"` What do you suppose me to be?
8832017:019 Then they took him and brought him up to the Areopagus, asking him,"May we be told what this new teaching of yours is?
8832019:002"Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you first believed?"
8832019:003"Into what then were you baptized?"
8832019:015"Jesus I know,"the evil spirit answered,"and Paul I have heard of, but who are you?"

8832022:010 And I asked,"` What am I to do, Lord?''
8832022:016 And now why delay?
8832022:027 So the Tribune came to Paul and asked him,"Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?"
8832023:004"Do you rail at God''s High Priest?"
8832023:019 Then the Tribune, taking him by the arm, withdrew out of the hearing of others and asked him,"What have you to tell me?"

8271''{ Exodus 3:5,7- 8,10} 007:035"This Moses, whom they refused, saying,''Who made you a ruler and a judge?''
8271001:006 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked him,"Lord, are you now restoring the kingdom to Israel?"

8271002:008 How do we hear, everyone in our own native language?

8271002:037 Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles,"Brothers, what shall we do?"
8271003:012 When Peter saw it, he responded to the people,"You men of Israel, why do you marvel at this man?
8271004:007 When they had stood them in the middle of them, they inquired,"By what power, or in what name, have you done this?"
8271005:003 But Peter said,"Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
8271005:004 While you kept it, did n''t it remain your own?

8271008:030 Philip ran to him, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said,"Do you understand what you are reading?"
8271008:031 He said,"How can I, unless someone explains it to me?"
8271009:004 He fell on the earth, and heard a voice saying to him,"Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?"
8271009:005 He said,"Who are you, Lord?"
8271009:021 All who heard him were amazed, and said,"Is n''t this he who in Jerusalem made havoc of those who called on this name?
8271010:004 He, fastening his eyes on him, and being frightened, said,"What is it, Lord?"
8271011:017 If then God gave to them the same gift as us, when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I, that I could withstand God?"
8271017:019 They took hold of him, and brought him to the Areopagus, saying,"May we know what this new teaching is, which is spoken by you?

8271019:003 He said,"Into what then were you baptized?"
8271019:015 The evil spirit answered,"Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are you?"
8271021:013 Then Paul answered,"What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart?
8271021:022 What then?
8271021:037 As Paul was about to be brought into the barracks, he asked the commanding officer,"May I speak to you?"
8271022:007 I fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to me,''Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?''
8271022:008 I answered,''Who are you, Lord?''
8271022:010 I said,''What shall I do, Lord?''
8271022:016 Now why do you wait?
8271022:027 The commanding officer came and asked him,"Tell me, are you a Roman?"
8271023:004 Those who stood by said,"Do you malign God''s high priest?"
8271023:019 The commanding officer took him by the hand, and going aside, asked him privately,"What is it that you have to tell me?"
8271026:008 Why is it judged incredible with you, if God does raise the dead?

8271026:027 King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets?
8271026:028 Agrippa said to Paul,"With a little persuasion are you trying to make me a Christian?"
8271About himself, or about someone else?"

8271He said,"Do you know Greek?
8271How is it that you have conceived this thing in your heart?
8271I ask therefore, why did you send for me?"
8271Some said,"What does this babbler want to say?"
8271The high priest questioned them, 005:028 saying,"Did n''t we strictly charge you not to teach in this name?
8271Then Peter answered, 010:047"Can any man forbid the water, that these who have received the Holy Spirit as well as we should not be baptized?"
8271What is keeping me from being baptized?"

8271{ TR, NU read"to all the people of Israel"instead of"to Israel"} 013:025 As John was fulfilling his course, he said,''What do you suppose that I am?
804444:001:006 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
804444:002:007 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
804444:002:008 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?
804444:002:012 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?
804444:003:012 And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this?
804444:004:007 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?
804444:005:003 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
804444:005:004 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own?
804444:005:008 And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much?
804444:005:009 Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord?
804444:007:001 Then said the high priest, Are these things so?
804444:007:027 But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?
804444:007:028 Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday?
804444:007:035 This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge?
804444:007:050 Hath not my hand made all these things?
804444:007:052 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted?
804444:008:030 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
804444:008:031 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me?
804444:008:034 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this?
804444:008:036 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
804444:009:005 And he said, Who art thou, Lord?
804444:009:006 And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?
804444:010:004 And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord?
804444:010:029 Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
804444:013:025 And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am?
804444:015:010 Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
804444:017:019 And they took him, and brought him unto Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new doctrine, whereof thou speakest, is?
804444:019:003 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized?
804444:019:015 And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
804444:021:013 Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart?
804444:021:022 What is it therefore?
804444:021:037 And as Paul was to be led into the castle, he said unto the chief captain, May I speak unto thee?
804444:022:007 And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
804444:022:008 And I answered, Who art thou, Lord?
804444:022:010 And I said, What shall I do, LORD?
804444:022:016 And now why tarriest thou?
804444:022:027 Then the chief captain came, and said unto him, Tell me, art thou a Roman?
804444:023:004 And they that stood by said, Revilest thou God''s high priest?
804444:023:019 Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went with him aside privately, and asked him, What is that thou hast to tell me?
804444:025:012 Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast thou appealed unto Caesar?
804444:026:008 Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?
804444:026:015 And I said, Who art thou, Lord?
804444:026:027 King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets?
8044And some said, What will this babbler say?
8044Then answered Peter, 44:010:047 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
8044Who said, Canst thou speak Greek?
8044and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power?
8044of himself, or of some other man?
8044or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?
8044saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest?
8044why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart?
83511:11. Who also said: Ye men of Galilee, why stand you looking up to heaven?
83518:31. Who said: And how can I, unless some man shew me?
83519:5. Who said: Who art thou, Lord?
8351And I answered: Who art thou, Lord?
8351And I said: What shall I do, Lord?
8351And I said: Who art thou, Lord?
8351And Peter said to her: Tell me, woman, whether you sold the land for so much?
8351And Peter said unto her: Why have you agreed together to tempt the spirit of the Lord?
8351And after it was sold, was it not in thy power?
8351And as Paul was about to be brought into the castle, he saith to the tribune: May I speak something to thee?
8351And bringing them out, he said: Masters, what must I do, that I may be saved?
8351And falling on the ground, I heard a voice saying to me: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
8351And falling on the ground, he heard a voice saying to him: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
8351And he said to them: Have you received the Holy Ghost since ye believed?
8351And he said: In what then were you baptized?
8351And he said: Thinkest thou that thou understandest what thou readest?
8351And he, beholding him, being seized with fear, said: What is it, Lord?
8351And he, trembling and astonished, said: Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?
8351And how have we heard, every man our own tongue wherein we were born?
8351And now do they thrust us out privately?
8351And now why tarriest thou?
8351And saying: Ye men, why do ye these things?
8351And setting them in the midst, they asked: By what power or by what name, have you done this?
8351And some said: What is it that this word sower would say?
8351And taking him, they brought him to the Areopagus, saying: May we know what this new doctrine is, which thou speakest of?
8351And the eunuch answering Philip, said: I beseech thee, of whom doth the prophet speak this?
8351And the eunuch said: See, here is water: What doth hinder me from being baptized?
8351And the tribune, taking him by the hand, went aside with him privately and asked him: What is it that thou hast to tell me?
8351And they that stood by said: Dost thou revile the high priest of God?
8351And they were all amazed, and wondered, saying: Behold, are not all these that speak Galilean?
8351And they were all astonished, and wondered, saying one to another: What meaneth this?
8351And when we were all fallen down on the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me in the Hebrew tongue: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
8351Art not thou that Egyptian who before these days didst raise a tumult and didst lead forth into the desert four thousand men that were murderers?
8351Art thou a Roman?
8351Believest thou the prophets, O king Agrippa?
8351But Festus, willing to shew the Jews a pleasure, answering Paul, said: Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem and there be judged of these things before me?
8351But Peter said: Ananias, why hath Satan tempted thy heart, that thou shouldst lie to the Holy Ghost and by fraud keep part of the price of the land?
8351But Peter seeing, made answer to the people: Ye men of Israel, why wonder you at this?
8351But who are you?
8351For, sittest thou to judge me according to the law and, contrary to the law, commandest me to be struck?
8351Hath not my hand made all these things?
8351His generation who shall declare, for his life shall be taken from the earth?
8351I ask, therefore, for what cause you have sent for me?
8351If then God gave them the same grace as to us also who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ: who was I, that could withstand God?
8351Now therefore, why tempt you God to put a yoke upon the necks of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we have been able to bear?
8351Of himself, or of some other man?
8351Or what is the place of my resting?
8351Or why look you upon us, as if by our strength or power we had made this man to walk?
8351Saying: What shall we do to these men?
8351Saying: Why didst thou go in to men uncircumcised and didst eat with them?
8351Then Festus, having conferred with the council, answered: Hast thou appealed to Caesar?
8351Then Paul answered and said: What do you mean, weeping and afflicting my heart?
8351Then Peter answered: Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Ghost, as well as we?
8351Then the high priest said: Are these things so?
8351They therefore who were come together, asked him, saying: Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom of Israel?
8351This Moses, whom they refused, saying: Who hath appointed thee prince and judge?
8351What house will you build me( saith the Lord)?
8351What if a spirit hath spoken to him, or an angel?
8351What is it therefore?
8351What is the cause for which you are come?
8351Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted?
8351Which the centurion hearing, went to the tribune and told him, saying: What art thou about to do?
8351Whilst it remained, did it not remain to thee?
8351Who said: Canst thou speak Greek?
8351Why hast thou conceived this thing in thy heart?
8351Why hurt you one another?
8351Why should it be thought a thing incredible that God should raise the dead?

8397And have you gone alone to Him as a sinful man?
8397And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou Me?
8397And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized?
8397And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me?
8397And he said, Who art Thou, Lord?
8397And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt Thou have me to do?
8397And how came he to be''full of the Holy Ghost''?
8397And how do we cling to Him?
8397And how does the Apostle describe in that letter his feelings before they came?
8397And how was the message received?
8397And how we hear every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?
8397And if salvation be a state of deliverance from sickness, and a state of deliverance from peril, do we not need it?
8397And if so, why is it not enough to guarantee this too?
8397And is it not such knowledge of Christianity that blocks the way with some of you for anything more real and more operative?
8397And is it not true that all such competitors of His, when they lead men to prefer them to Him, are''murderers,''in a sadder sense than Barabbas was?
8397And is it so sweet in your hearts that you can not but let its sweetness have expression by your lips?
8397And is not love the most powerful of all forces to influence conduct?
8397And is not that record enough?
8397And may we not say that the yearning of the servant is caught from the example of the Master?
8397And now why tarriest thou?
8397And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things?
8397And so is all life worship, and all worship hope?
8397And so the Apostles said:''What is the use of your squabbling thus?
8397And so, brethren, has He saved you?
8397And so, dear brethren, I come to you with my last question, this man rejoiced, believing in the Lord; why should not you; and why should not you now?
8397And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this?
8397And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galileans?
8397And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?
8397And was he any better for it?
8397And what caused it?
8397And what comes of it?
8397And what did facts say?
8397And what do we mean in this connection by faith?
8397And what had he made of it?
8397And what had the handful of Christian people?
8397And what had the uncircumcised rabble of Antioch to do with''the promises made to the fathers''?
8397And what has it done for you?
8397And what is the instrument of edification in our ordinary religious parlance?
8397And what is the meaning of_ holy_?
8397And what nerved him thus to front death itself without a quiver?
8397And what of the other meaning of the word?
8397And what thus brought a cloud over his sky?
8397And what was it all for?
8397And what was it that made him master of circumstances, and enabled him to keep sunshine in his heart when winter bound all the world around him?
8397And what was it?
8397And what were the privileges which they thus jealously monopolised?
8397And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this?
8397And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord?
8397And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?
8397And why should they not be motives for us all?
8397And yet, brethren, what is the use of toothless generalities?
8397And''shall the axe boast itself,''either''against''or apart from''Him that heweth therewith''?
8397Are former attainments continually being left behind?
8397Are not your bodies subject to the same laws?
8397Are the dying words of your Master,''This do in remembrance of Me,''written by you over everything you do?
8397Are these His doings?''
8397Are these all the gifts that we are bound to carry to heathen lands?
8397Are they Israelites?
8397Are they the seed of Abraham?
8397Are we as ready to recognise it as laying a very real responsibility upon us, and involving a very practical inference as to our own conduct?
8397Are we bolder to- day than we were yesterday?
8397Are we building there?
8397Are we not all members of the Church of England by virtue of our birth?
8397Are we ready to meet with more undaunted confidence whatever we may have to face?
8397Are we to be chopping logic, and arguing with every ignorant upstart who chooses to vent his heresies?
8397Are we to let the resemblance discredit the Christian message?
8397Are we to listen to the rude solution which says,''All lies alike''?
8397Are we, as a portion of His great heritage, being continually replenished by souls that come to tell what God has done for them?
8397Are you and I building ourselves up in that?
8397Are you safe?
8397Are you?
8397Art not thou that Egyptian, which before these days madest an uproar, and leddest out into the wilderness four thousand men that were murderers?
8397As if he said,''Do you really think that I-- I-- am going to bow myself down to be a follower and adherent of that Christ of yours?
8397Augustine said,''Where Christ is there is the Church,''and that is true, but vague; for the question still remains,''And where_ is_ Christ?''
8397Beaten from every refuge, and lying there, he cries:''What wouldst Thou have me to do, Lord?''
8397Brethren, is it so with you?
8397But do we believe that He is verily putting forth His power, in no metaphor, but in simple reality, at present and here, and, if we will, through us?
8397But he can not do it unless the man opens his heart, as that''why?''
8397But if it lashes out with its hoofs against the point, what does it get but bleeding flanks?
8397But if the magistrates had said,''What customs?''
8397But were the tongue- like shapes of the flames significant too?
8397But what does that matter, if our names, dear friends, are written in the Lamb''s Book of Life, with this for sole epitaph,''a disciple''?
8397But what does the reason in verse 21 mean?
8397But what is the meaning of claiming for Jesus that He is anointed?
8397But what kind of faith?
8397But when I come to''And thou?''
8397But, a listener might ask, what has this witness of yours to do with Joel''s prophecy, or with this speaking with tongues?
8397But, making that acknowledgment, may we not make the use?
8397By what right can_ they_ talk of running the Christian race?
8397Can testimony not reach to this:''I know, because I saw, that a man was dead; I know, because I saw, a dead man live again''?
8397Can these bones live?''
8397Can you see''the grace of God''in the people?
8397Christian men and women, do you know anything of that o''er- mastering impulse?
8397Consider then, first, his-- what shall I call it?
8397Could there be such rottenness and corruption if the''salt''had not''lost his savour''?
8397Dear friends, do you carry with you the impulse for utterance of Christ''s name wherever you go?
8397Dear young friend, have you made it yours?
8397Did Festus wince a little at the mention of these, which ought not to have been on his wrists?
8397Did Paul remember Stephen, as the stones came whizzing on him?
8397Did Paul remember how he had been''consenting''to the death of Stephen on the very same charges?
8397Did ever a Cortez on the beach, with his ships in flames behind him, and a continent in arms before, cast himself on a more desperate venture?
8397Did not the Church pray for him?
8397Did such things happen?
8397Did the great galleys carry surgeons as now?
8397Did you ever count how many''_ straightways_''there are in the first chapter of Mark''s Gospel?
8397Did you ever see a squad of raw recruits being drilled in the barrack- yard?
8397Did you ever see what miserable daubs the scenes look, and how seamy it all is when the pitiless sunshine comes in?
8397Did you ever try to paint for yourselves, for instance, the scene described in the First Epistle to the Corinthians?
8397Do not all these emblems declare to us the possibility of a human spirit being charged to the limits of its capacity with a divine influence?
8397Do not such words sound like mockery when applied to us?
8397Do not you and the men in Patagonia breathe the same air?
8397Do these facts import anything at all to us?
8397Do they not slay the souls of their admirers?
8397Do we feel ever increasing within us the full blessedness and inspiration of that divine visitant?
8397Do we feel more thrillingly and gladly to- day than we did yesterday, that God is beside us?
8397Do we make a business of the cultivation of Christian character thus?
8397Do we rest the whole structure of our lives upon Jesus Christ?
8397Do we rightly appreciate that?
8397Do we speak to God merely by way of preface to one of us talking to his brethren?
8397Do we?
8397Do you begin your notions of Jesus Christ where His work begins?
8397Do you believe us or do you not?
8397Do you bring the sacred and the secular as close together as that?
8397Do you remember another incident, singularly parallel in essence, though entirely unlike in circumstances, to this one?
8397Do you remember one of the Apostle''s lovely and strong metaphors?
8397Do you remember that old story of the way in which the prisoners in the time of the French Revolution used to behave?
8397Do you think that theirs would be very elaborate prayers?
8397Do you wonder that I would urge on you just such a life as that of this man as your highest good?
8397Does it not seem the bitterest irony to talk about the usual life of a Christian as a course?
8397Does it not?
8397Does not Christ, in His long- suffering love, linger in like manner round each closed heart?
8397Does not that mean complete investiture of our nakedness with that heavenly- woven robe?
8397Does that not mean a complete immersion in, and submersion under, the cleansing flood?
8397Dynamos and encyclopaedias, gin and rifles, shirtings and castings?
8397Even Peter ventures only on''Lord, Thou knowest all things,''and on one flash of the old familiarity:''What shall this man do?''
8397For what has Paul cast away in becoming a Christian?
8397For what hast Thou started to Thy feet, from the eternal repose of Thy session at the right hand of God the Father Almighty?
8397For what purpose did God give us the blessing of knowing Christ ourselves?
8397Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as He did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God?
8397Full of the Holy Ghost, was he?
8397Full?
8397God had received them; should not the Church do so?
8397Had Annas forgot''His blood be on us, and on our children''?
8397Had he voluntarily and bravely joined them?
8397Had not God bid them speak, by their very knowledge of these?
8397Had the''sure mercy''proved, then, a broken reed?
8397Has not God set His seal on these communities to which we belong?
8397Has our Christianity revolutionised our nature in any such fashion?
8397Has that leaping fire died down into grey ashes?
8397Has that''rushing mighty wind''blown itself out, and a dead calm followed?
8397Has the oil dried in the cruse?
8397Have I not a right to appeal to the half- sleeping and half- waking consciousness that endorses my words in some hearts as I speak?
8397Have there been no Christian communities in later days animated by the same spirit?
8397Have we got them?
8397Have we got to that yet, or within sight of it, do you suppose?
8397Have we not to carry Christ?
8397Have we schooled ourselves to say honestly,''Therein I do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice''?
8397Have we translated our thoughts of Him into actions, and have we put all our actions under the control of our thoughts of Him?
8397Have you not to be contented to be fed in the same fashion, and to sleep and eat and drink in the same way?
8397Have you thus consecrated yourself to God?
8397Have you trod it, my friend-- that new and living way, which leads within the veil, into the secrets of loving communion with your Father in Heaven?
8397Have you, my brother, that faith by which we receive into our spirits Christ''s own Spirit, to be our life?
8397He had left Paphos with Barnabas and John Mark-- where were they?
8397He has another question to put to us, with another''why,''''Why should ye be stricken any more?
8397He knew the prisoners were all safe; why should he have come pale and trembling?
8397He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed?
8397Here are doors open; how came that?
8397Here are prisoners with the possibility of escape refusing it; how came that?
8397Here is one of his victims tenderly careful of his life and peacefulness, and taking the upper hand of him; how came that?
8397His first waking thought was,''What is God''s will for me to- day?
8397How are you sure?
8397How came His death to be the occasion of consolidating, not of shattering, their fellowship?
8397How came Peter to be so sure that a man who had died was the''Prince of Life''?
8397How came he to be so?
8397How came he to be that?
8397How came the lame man there?
8397How can a truth do any good to any one who does not believe in it?
8397How can you expect to see, unless you open your eyes?
8397How can you face it without going mad, unless you know God and trust Him as your Father through Christ?
8397How come there to be in Him, at one moment, calmness unmoved, and heroic self- oblivion, and at the next, agony, and all but despair?
8397How could death have power over the Prince of Life?
8397How could he believe upon Him if he knew so little about Him?
8397How do you propose to have your blood purified, if you do not fill your lungs with air?
8397How had they come in?
8397How is it possible that, if you do not take a medicine, it will work?
8397How long does an oak take before it gets too high for a sheep to crop at?
8397How long will that day be of which a thousand years are but as the morning twilight?
8397How many of us, knowing far more than he, have never asked the same wise question, or have never gone to Paul for an answer?
8397How much of it would bear the scrutiny which will have to come, and which in Paul''s case was so quiet and calm?
8397How shall a sinful soul come to a holy God?
8397How?
8397I do not ask you that;_ I_ do not ask you anything; but I pray you to ask yourselves these four questions: Am I Christ''s scholar?
8397I speak to you members of this church, and I ask you to ponder the question,--Is it so?
8397I wonder how many of you get the greater part of your living out of India and China?
8397I wonder if there are any of you who are saying,''I can not give up that''?
8397If anybody were so far left to himself as to go with this question to some of our modern wise men and teachers, they would say,''Saved?
8397If it does not, are you quite sure that it_ is_ Christianity at all?
8397If it does not, what does that mean?
8397If they were his friends, why did they not do something to shield him?
8397If you have not, will you do it when you go home; and notice how they come in?
8397If you take heed to prolong the point into a line, and hour by hour to renew the surrender and the cry,''Lord, what wilt Thou have me to do?''
8397If you want to find out the flaws in some thin, badly- woven piece of cloth, you hold it up against the light, do you not?
8397If you were as near the edge as Stephen was, would it be wise for you to be interceding for other people''s forgiveness?
8397In His humiliation His judgment was taken away; and who shall declare His generation?
8397Indeed;--how came he to be so?
8397Introductory to what?
8397Is Pentecost a vanished glory, then?
8397Is anybody safe standing in front of that awful law that rules the whole universe,''Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap''?
8397Is it a cure, or is it not?''
8397Is it a sign of haste that the''garlands,''which should have been twined round the oxen''s horns, are mentioned separately?
8397Is it not bracing to see any one actuated by such motives as these?
8397Is it not but too ghastly a reality that all who thus choose them draw down ruin on themselves and''love death''?
8397Is it not singular and beautiful that Peter''s word by the bedside of the dead Dorcas is, with the exception of one letter, absolutely identical?
8397Is it of any use to have gas- fittings in your house, if they are not connected with the main?
8397Is it our actual?
8397Is not Death, too, God''s messenger to souls that love Him,''mighty and beauteous, though his face be hid''?
8397Is not the faith of our mission converts often a rebuke to us?
8397Is not the natural inference that the latter treatise will tell us what Jesus_ continued_''to do and teach''_ after_ He was taken up?
8397Is not the sequence in Peter''s defence substantially that which all Christian preaching should exhibit?
8397Is not this a Christian country?
8397Is our religion flame or ice?
8397Is that a transcript of my life and yours?
8397Is that all that I have to say?
8397Is that the breath that swells all the sails of your lives, and drives you upon your course?
8397Is that the proper order?
8397Is that what it will be to you?
8397Is that what you and I do with our quiet times?
8397Is that your idea of the best thing about a life?
8397Is the Christianity of the average church member and professing Christian a continuous advance?
8397Is the love of fame worthy of being called''the last infirmity of noble minds''?
8397Is their behaviour not a mirror in which we may see our own?
8397Is there an unbroken flow of such into what we call our communion?
8397Is there any answer to that?
8397Is there any contradiction between the two?
8397Is there any reason why it was not done but the one reason that it could not be done?
8397Is there anything outside a lunatic asylum more madlike than that?
8397Is to- day better than yesterday?
8397Is your daily life like that?
8397Is your house like that?
8397It is insolent to ask,''Understandest thou?''
8397It is very pleasant to small minds to say,''Did I not tell you so?
8397It was Peter''s argument in the case of Cornelius: they''have received the Holy Ghost as well as we,''''who was I, that I could withstand God?''
8397It was like the wondering question so unanswerable in the Psalm,''Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?''
8397Jesus was the one; who was the other?
8397King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets?
8397Let each of us ask,''Am I?
8397May I say, without seeming egotism to you it is granted even through the dark and cloudy envelope of my poor words?
8397Need I recall to you how noble a life issued from that fountain?
8397Nothing?
8397Notice, too, the pathetic''denied'': was Peter thinking of the shameful hour in his own experience?
8397Now do you think that the jailer''s question was a piece of foolish superstition?
8397Now if we put all this together, does not the shadowy figure begin to become more substantial?
8397Now that the whole battery was unmasked the issue was clear-- Is Christianity to be a Jewish sect or the universal religion?
8397Now these are the bones of his story; can we put flesh and blood upon them: and can we get any lessons out of them?
8397Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
8397Now, I ask you, what of Paul''s Gospel is not here?
8397Now, are you ready?
8397One prayer was answered; was the other left unanswered?
8397Or is it the delusion of ignoble ones?
8397Or they would say,''Saved?
8397Paul''s Christianity transformed him; does yours transform you?
8397Paul''s question is,''Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?''
8397Perfected through sufferings?
8397Peter said,''Why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?''
8397Philip might have sulked and said:''Why was I not chosen to do this work?
8397Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name?
8397Shall we respond?
8397Similarly another of the New Testament writers declares, in the broadest terms, that''this spake he of the Holy Spirit, which''--Apostles?
8397So it is worth while to stop for a moment and ask what is the criterion of greatness in our deeds?
8397So the question for us all is, What are we doing with what we know of Jesus Christ?
8397So will not our way be made right?
8397So, dear brethren, all these things being certainly so, what are we to say about the present state of Christendom?
8397So, then, the savant had to ask,_ How_ can there be life?
8397THE GREAT QUESTION AND THE PLAIN ANSWER''He brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
8397That being so, and Christianity having this feature in common with all the religions of men, how are we to account for the resemblance?
8397That fear then was past; what was he afraid of now?
8397That is beautiful, is it not?
8397That is the crown of Peter''s vindication, and his question,''Who was I, that I could withstand God?''
8397That is the right answer, especially if you can say to the antagonistic party,''Have you been down to the door, then, to see?''
8397That one question,''_ Why_ persecutest thou Me?''
8397That was as much as to say,''What have I done to merit thy hate?
8397The answer to that question is the answer to this other one,--have you sought your pardon already, and got it at the hands of Jesus Christ?
8397The determining consideration should be, Which course will best glorify my Master?
8397The one is,"What for?"
8397The one question is, Will the four anchors hold?
8397The question is all- important for each of us,''Have I this life, and does it move me, as the ships are borne along by the wind?''
8397The question,''What shall we do?''
8397Their first question was,''Where are we?''
8397Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart?
8397Then did His humanity need perfecting?
8397Then how does it come that men go on, as so many of my friends here now have gone on, all their days paying no attention to that need?
8397Then the chief captain came, and said, Tell me, art thou a Roman?
8397Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went with him aside privately, and asked him, What is that thou hast to tell me?
8397Then this being so-- what is the wise course of conduct?
8397Then was I happy and prosperous and peaceful in my home and in my business, and I said,''I shall never be moved,''and I forgot my God?
8397Then was Paul flying in the face of divine prohibitions when he held on his way in spite of all that could be said?
8397Then what do we find in these undeniably and admittedly genuine letters, written a quarter of a century after the supposed fact?
8397Then, dear brethren, how do you stand fronting that Unknown?
8397These things being so, how could the Apostles be silent?
8397They have the thing signified; what does it matter about the sign, which is good for us Jews, but needless for them?
8397They would have said,''The God whose_ you_ are and whom_ you_ serve?
8397They would not compliment him on either his honesty or his prudence, would they?
8397Thou that art named the House of Israel, is the Spirit of the Lord straitened?
8397To hand over their Messiah to the heathen,--what could be completer faithlessness to all Israel''s calling and dignity?
8397To how many of us the question might be put:''Did you receive the Holy Ghost when you believed?''
8397Turn ye, turn ye; why will ye die, O house of Israel?''
8397Unless they are, what sign of being Christians do we present?
8397WHOM TO OBEY,--ANNAS OR ANGEL?
8397WOULD- BE EXORCISTS''... Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?''
8397Was Gallio ever again brought into contact with Paul or Paul''s Lord?
8397Was Peter Luke''s informant?
8397Was Philip less under Christ''s guidance when miracle ceased and he was left to ordinary powers?
8397Was it His death only that thus elevated the disciples''thoughts of Jesus?
8397Was it a remembrance of that scene in Athens that made him write to the Corinthians that his message was''to the Greeks foolishness''?
8397Was it likely that, being there on such an errand, he should have profaned it?
8397Was it not just like Him?
8397Was not I christened when I was a child?
8397Was not Paul teaching men to climb up some other way, and so blasphemously abrogating a divine law?
8397Was not that scene in Paul''s lodging in Rome the end of an epoch and the prediction of a sad future?
8397Was that all?
8397Was there any time to make a long petition when the sword of a Philistine was whizzing about the suppliant''s ears?
8397Was there not a presumption that the power which had wrought so''good''a deed was good?
8397Was this the glorified body?
8397We condemn such narrowness, but do many of us not practise it in other forms?
8397We have the slow work of mining; the dynamite will be put into the hole one day, and the spark applied-- and then?
8397We know that certainly the great majority of us will be alive at the close of this New Year; but who will be the exceptions?
8397Well then, what about the masses of so- called Christians who feel nothing of any such constraining force?
8397Well, did that not make Him hurry as fast as He could to the bedside?
8397Were they those of the city, in which case the priest and procession would be coming from the temple outside the walls?
8397Were you ever on the stage of a theatre in the daytime?
8397What about a great many other things in your life?
8397What are the reasons for such an attitude as that?
8397What are we to say about the present state of English Christianity, Church and Dissent alike?
8397What brought them out of that Slough of Despond?
8397What but the conviction that they had a living Lord at God''s right hand, and a mighty Spirit in their spirits?
8397What but universal can such a message be?
8397What did Paul say?
8397What did all this succession of strange things mean?
8397What did that poor heathen man know about the Lord Jesus Christ?
8397What did that?
8397What did that?
8397What did they mean?
8397What difference is there between what a man does with his hands and what a man feels in his heart?
8397What do hundreds of us do with our knowledge of Christianity?
