MEN WHO DARED
TO BE BOLD
Here's a Bible Story For Spine-!
less. Cautious, Calculating
Folk
Tlie International Sunday School i.es
son For February 6 In "The Bold
ness or Peter and John."—Acts
4:1-31.
(By WnUam T. Ellla)
This is a story for all spineless, cau
tious, calculating-, prudent and "safe"
folks. It portrayß two fishermen,
called to account for a deed of mercy,
the healing of a lame beggar, suc
cessfully withstanding the powerful
and adroit and sophisticated leaders
of their time. When the issue was
Joined, it was not the two unlettered
Galileans who were put to rout, but
the timorous custodians of self inter
est. The Incident was momentous in
Christian history, for it was the flrst |
proof to the world, and to the old j
order of religion, that the leaders of j
the new church were men with spines.
It hall-marked the Christians with
the word "boldness."
Power, of the physical, legal sort,
Is usually with the old order: the
innovator, the reformer, the prophet,
is commonly looked upon at first as
a law-breaker. After the sensational j
healing of the lame man by the beaur i
tiful gate, and the uproar and
preaching that followed it, the tem- j
pie police clapped Peter and John :
into jail. Then they were haled be
fore the sunhedrin, the high court of
the Jews, in the morning. These ec- 1
clesiastics, who had but lately done
Jesus to death, were minded to try |
the same methods with His followers. '
for the conversion of five thousand j
men to the new Way troubled them
sorely. They were ready for sum- ■
mary measures as they set the two j
apostles in the midst of the stately ;
array of dignitaries and challenged
them, "What do you mean by all j
this?"
Less than two months before, at i
the name place, and during a sitting ,
of the same august tribunal, Stinon j
Peter had been so badly scared that
he had denied with curses that he j
ever knew Jesus. Now, with un- j
abashed fearlessless, and with a suav- !
ity and deftness and power that more j
than matched the cunning of these
doctors of the law, he confronts them 1
with an address that is a defense of
himself. The story is best told by i
Dr. Luke, the historian:
"Then Peter, filled with Holy Spirit,
said unto them. Ye rulers of the peo
ple, and elders, if we this day are
examined concerning a good deed
done to an impotent' man, by what
means this man is made whole be
it known until you all, and to all the
people of Israel, that in the name of
Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye I
crucified, whom God raised from the
dead, even in Him doth this man
stand here before you whole. He is
the stone which was set at naught, of
you the builders, which was made the 1
head of (he corner. And in none ,
other is there salvation; for neither is
there any other name under heaven,
that is given among men, wherein we
must be saved.
"Now when they beheld the bold
ness of Peter and John, and had per
ceived that they were unlearned and
ignorant men, they marveled; and
they took knowledge of them, that j
they had been with Jesus. And see
ing the man that was healed stand- j
lng with them, they could say noth
ing against it. But when they had
commanded them to go aside out of j
the council, they conferred among |
themselves, saying. What shall we do j
to these men? for that indeed a not- !
able miracle bath been wrought
through them, is manifest to all who
dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot
deny it. But that it spread no fur- !
ther among the people, let us threaten |
them, that they speak henceforth to
no man in this name. And they called |
tliem. and charged them not to speak !
at all nor teach in the name of Jesus, j
But Peter and John answered and !
said unto them, Whether it is right j
In the sight of God to hearken unto ■
you rather than unto God, judge ye; 1
for we cannot but speak the things j
which we saw and heard. And they,
when they had further threatened
them, let them go, finding nothing
how they might punish them, because j
of the people: for all men glorified i
God for that which was done."
Tho Preacher and tlic Prelates
"Reckless," conservatism cries of
Peter, and all who inherit his qual
ity. Alas, the same charge of reck- j
less radicalism and fearlessness does
not lie at the door of most of us.
This dauntless daring Is just the
quality which the church to-day lacks.
We are conventionalized into a fu
tile commonplaceness. A new bap
tism of the Holy Spirit of boldness,
with a passion for right "in scorn of
consequence," Is what. Christianity to- ;
day needs. For we are more prone
to take counsel of our prudent 1
prelates than of our prophets.
Like the elders of the sanhedrin,
the leaders of church affairs are
prone to follow the worldly fashion
of getting aside in secret and sophis- j
tieated counsels, where they discuss
what Is "safe" to do. It is an open
scandal that some high ecclesiastical j
assemblies contain more politics and :
scheming and trading and chicanery
than many an avowedly political
convention. So ingrained has this
thoroughly worldly practice become
that many ecclesiastics seem unable
to comprehend any other way of do
in? the Lord's business. They are
enmeshed in their own net of policv
and prudence. Often they seek by
subtile means to silence the Peters
who dare speak forth for the present
day doings of a God who is contem
poraneous because eternal.
Worldly wisdom is what the
church needs least of all. An eminent
layman of one of the great denomina
tions told me recently that the church 1
board of which he is a member re
ceived two hundred thousand a year
from one wealthy giver. This vast
sum seemed all important to the body.
Yet it was the only board in the coun
try that failed to secure enough money
for its work, and was obliged to re- i
trench sinfully. Other boards, with 1
more faith in the loyalty of Christian
people, were making advances in their :
work while this one was going back- j
ward. Caution, rather than courage, j
marked its actions. Simple trust, and
simple fearlessness carry the church
farther than worldly sophistication.
Those two lone fishermen. Peter and i
John, meant more to the kingdom of;
God. and to the welfare of the world
than the eminent prelatieal tribunal "
before which they stood.

Incident: '"They took knowledge of I
thorn that they had been with Jesus."
How often Christians have prayed and j
hoped that this might be true of them:
This is another instance of vicious
misquotation, or, rather, of half quo- ,
tation. Just as nowadays men are
quoting the line of Bulwer Lyton,
"The pen is mightier than the sword,"
whereas the author, wiser than his'
readers, qualified that line, the whole j
quotation beiiiK
"Beneath the rule of men entirely j
great, •
The i»en is mightier than the sword."
In ignoble times the sword is still
mightier than the pen. Similarly, in
our. lesson, the whole truth is "When ]
they beheld the boldness of Peter and
John • • » they took knowledge I
of them that they had been with
Jesus." No weak-kneed, timorous,
time-serving Christians ever make
anybody think of Jesus Christ. Only
they who share His courage honor His
name.
The point set me to studying that
word "boldness" and its derivatives
in the Book of Acts, i found that 1
had stumbled upon a gold mine. The
Bible student is counselled to look
up the subject in some book or books
that will give the Greek original—
say "Young's Analytical Concord
ance," or an interlinear Greek and
English New Testament. For, not
to go outside of the Book of Acts it
self, I Had no less than a doeen allu
sions to the boldness of Christians,
and always in connection with witness
bearing.
That word "boldness" means "free
utterance," It is courage in testi
mony. The bravest man is the one
who, like Peter, dares tell the high
est truth he knows, and without fear
of the face of man. As we follow
the trail of the Greek word,
"parrhesia," or "boldness" we soon
find it applied to Paul also, and fre
quently used by him. Bet me trace
the word through Buke's narrative,
which may be called "The Book of
Boldness."
On Hip Trail of a Word
As every art-lover knows, there
are rare beauties in the miniatures
of the Vatican collection, as well as
In the huge expanse of Michael An
gelo's "Bast Judgment." So there is
delight and profit in detailed study
of the Bible, as well as in a contem
plation of its broader meanings and
messages. So we may find the single
Greek word, "parrhesia" a source of
illumination and fortitude.
The word is first used in the Book
of Acts in the second chapter, twenty
ninth verse, when Peter would "speak
freely" of the patriarch David's wit
ness to Christ. Next It occurs in the
present lesson to characterize the fear
less outspokenness of Peter and John.
The first recorded prayer of the
Christian Church (Acts 4:29) is a
prayer for boldness or free utterance
in witness-bearing. In the same chap
ter (Acts 4:31) we find the categor
ical record of the answer to that
prayer. For the fifth and sixth allu
sions to "parrhesia" we turn to Acts
9:27-29. where the story Is told of the
boldness of Paul's preaching at Da
mascus. Again we And the same rec
ord (Acts 13:46) of Paul and Barna
bas at Antloch in Plsldia; and (Acts
14:3) at Iconluin, the city where to
day many thousands of Armenians are
suffering for the same witness-bearing.
Still another representative of the
Apostolic church, Apollos. showed the
same traits at Ephesurf (Acts 18:261,
and In the same heathen city we
find Paul preaching for three months
with boldness (Acts 19:8). Before
Festus also he spoke with "parrhesia,"
Acts 26:26) and the last record we
have of the great apostle (Acts 28:3),
and the Inst sentence of the Book of
(Acts 26:26) and the last record we
things concerning the Lord Jesus
Christ with all boldness."
Such a study as this, of the place
that boldness had in the early church
and still should have in the Christian's
life, Is more directly contributory to
character than any comments upon
the particular points of Peter's cour
age. For It Is to the Bible that we
must go to tind force as well as faith,
courage as well as conviction.
