Guidance Is the moment by mo-
ment need of every man and wom-
an, boy and girl. The whole of
life calls for decisions, many of
which look quite Innocent and un-
important, but upon which the dee-
tiny of an entire life may turn. Who
dove not recall the poet'e lament
over the want of an ordinary horie-
•hoe nail which resulted in the loss
of the shoe, which disabled the
horte, whose rider wee lost, with
the reeult that the battle went
against hls people.
Since the great issues of life may
turn on the simplest of choioes, we
need guidance at every point in life,
this need has been recognized by
those who would make merchandise
of their neighbora. Quacks and
charlatans offer guidance by every
method, from reading the palm,
looking at the stars, or consultmg
the spirits, to those smug enter-
prises which pose as spiritual and
talk mqch of prayer, but which do
not honor the name of Christ nor
recognize Him as Redeemer and
Lord.
One of the glories of the Christian
faith la that the believer is indwelt
by the third person of the Trinity, '
the Holy Spirit Himself, who is
ready and willing to give divine
guidance in every detail of life from
the smallest to the greatest. -
We study today the coming of the
gospel into Europe, and that means
through our forefathers to America
We consider what from our view-
point was a crucial point In the his
lory of the Church. Thanks be to
Cod that His servant Paul was in
that hout* obedient to the guidance
of the Holy Spirit. Observe that
the gospel came to Europe
I. By Providential Hindrance <15:
16; 16:4-8).
Not only the steps, but also the
stops of a good man are ordered ol
the Lord. That is not an easy les-
son to learn. We may be as much
in the will of the Lord when all of
our efforts seem to be thwarted as
when they prosper. Let us not for-
get it.
Paul haa set out on a second lout*
ney to carry out a follow-up cam-
paign In the Cities where he had al-
ready preached. This was a good
. plan and had God'i blessing (see
v. 5). But soon we find that word
’‘forbidden” (v. 6) and then "suf-
fered not" (v. 7). The Holy Spirit
began to close doors to the gospel
preacher. Now what? Shall he go
on In determined self-will 7 Or shall
he become discouraged and embit-
tered in hit soul? No, let him welt,
for God Is guiding him by provi-
dential hindrance, which Is soon to
be followed
II. 'By Dlvtoe Guidance (16:9, 10).
The Spirit spoke to Peul In a
vision revealing the divine purpoee
that the gospel should go over into
Macedonia. The Spirit leads in our
day, possibly not by visions, but by
Impelling Inward prompting com-
plemented and checked by the
teachlnpof Scripture and by provi-
dential clrqumstancea, and a man
may know wlftt Is the will of God.
A word of caution Is needed at
this point Some earnest Christian
peopla go astray by projecting their
own desires and purposes Into the
place where they come to regard
them as the will of God, and thus
do themselves and others, and
Christianity itself much harm. The
three things already mentioned
should agree—(1) the Inner profWlft-
Ing of the Spirit, (2) the teaching of
God's Word, and (2) God’s hand In
oar outward Circumstances.

Without Advertising, no merchant could
afford to risk a large investment in merchaa-
dise-and wait and wait till some chance cus-
tomer happened in... Without Advertising,
you would be of the many loveely,
useful things assembled in the stores for your
convenience... Without Advertising, finding
what you wanted at a price you could afford
would be a matter of luck or of patient plod-
ding from store to store

Mass production and sales volume-thru

People an ease and comfort of living that
would have been beyond the wildest dream of
