Paul sailed from C entires August,
A. D. 69 (Haiiisej), a few duys after,
bis address before Agrlppa. , Ho
reached Malta about November 13.
I'uul knew bow to meet mobs,
but none of his adventures are mors
outstanding than the one we ere
studying today. Luke, his physician,
was a companion, and the historian,
Joeeplms, states that on hoard the '
ship there were more than (V)0 people
Ucvellng with Paul. Paul was a man
of distinction, a Koman cltlaen. He
bad his own hired house In Home.
Aristarcbus niny possibly have bee
bis servant to furnish comfort for
the Journey. Ramsey believes Paul
had received hereditary property, thus
making liliu a IUuuan citizen of rank,
of learning aud f standing finan
cially. I. Fair Weather and Contrary Winds
(vr. 1-12). fildon was about "0
mile north of Cuesnrea on the coast
of Palestine. Here Paul received lib
erty to go ushore and visit his Chris
tian friends. Myra Is in Asia Minor.
It requires 14 duys to reach tills point
from Sldon, a distance of nbotit -UK)
ii. lies. Here, Ins tend of going up the
Aegean sea route, often used in going
to Koine, the centurion found a grain
ship bound from Alexandria to Italy,
end put his prisoners on board. Sep
tember 1 they started for Italy. The
direct course would have been west
ward, hut the wind wns contrary, and
the progress was slow. On the 23d
thejr were opposite Cnldus, the south
west point of Asia Minor, l.'iO miles
from Myra. September 25 they
entered the harbor of Fair Haven,
nmr the middle of the south shore
of the Island of Crete. The fast day,
October 8, the day of the great atone
ment, was observed In this place. The
question of going farther was a de
batable one, yet the commander per
sisted, and about the 10th of October
they sailed for Fair Haven,
II. The Hurricane (vv. 13-20). Tak
ing advantage of a gentle wind they
put out of Fair Huven; and almost
Immediately encountered the hurri
cane. It wns perhaps hurd for Paul
during those H days to discern the
ulse, gentle hand of Ood. (Jonah
t-4). Ood's most faithful servnnts do
not always find smooth sailing. (Phil.
4 A 7; Isnlnh 2C:S; John 10:S.1), but
they may, no matter how fiercely tem
pcat tossed, know .that God tins not
ceased to look u)on them with favor.
Sometimes the best thing for us te
do, when thus temiest tossed. Is "t
lighten the ship" (v. IS).
Many of us are carrying too much
cargo for such a stormy voyage as
tills world presents, and the tempest
Is often flod's call to unload (Heb.
12:1; Phil. 8:7-8; Math. 18:20).
ThHr greatest danger wns lest they
should fall Into qiilcksnnd. It was
Indeed n dark and doubtful situation.
III. The Message of Cheer: "I Be
lieve Cod" (vv. 20-200. Neither sun
nor stsrs having shone for many days,
and all hope thnt any should be snvod
setmltigly taken nwny. yet Ood Is able
to save In the darkness as well s In
the sunshine. In the temit as well
as In the calm, and there wns In that
root one man at least whose hope was
not gone, for God hnd said to him,
"Thou must benr witness at Home
aiee" (23:11).. Paul's message of
cheer In the midst of this despair and
after they had been so long without
food. Immediately stninped him as a
leeder of wisdom and power. Ia the
presence of passengers and sailors he
began his message by saying thnt they
hnd come Into this disaster by neglect
ing his advice two weeks befire. He
refers to this In order to Inspire confi
dence In his message, thnt there
should he no loss of any man's life
among them.
Paul could wake this promise be
cause "an angel of God whose I nia
ed whom I serve" had come to him
nd assured him that Ood would re
deem the promtne made two years be
fore. This Irairtles that Psal had given
himself to prayer. Observe now one
gtnlly man can ssve nisny nngmlly
men (Gen. 13:22-33). God's vision
came to Paul, but Paul used It for th
comfort and cheer of the whole ship's
coniHny (II Cor. 1-4). A modern II
histratlon of a similar experience was
that of Mr. Moody and General How
ard, returning from F.urope on the
steamship Bpree In 19D2.
General Howard relates that Mr.
Moody did a greet deal te cheer the
passengers, by both his words aad k!s
actions, during those days of stress
and storm. The darker and stormier
the night, the more likely are the
angels of Ood to apear If we are la
deed bin (v. 23: Cf. Ch. 18 23:11).
Sometime Uee angels stand beside
na aud we do not see n, we are
taken up with the aWkjusM aad the
howling of the storm. It la a great
tkHig te be able to toek up to the ha
Bnite Gd and say, 1 aat his." Te
