An Incomplete Book Of The Bible
"The Acts of the Apostles. in the canon of the New Testament ends ' with a picture of Paul awaiting the hearing of his case before the Roman Emperor, and preaqhing the Kingdom of God, but there is. a - sense in which the Acts of the Apostles of Jesus will always be an unfinished reeord,55 said Rev. A. Salmond, in S-t. Andrew's presbyterian Church, on Sunday night, "for _ in every generation there are Christian .men. and women who are true to their- ' calling, and whose achieveme'nts for,' • Christ : provide, 1 tlie matefial for .new chapters, of the Acts -of :the Apostles/'. *. . !. MrTSalmoi|df.iliu^tfated -this icgr{viction by reference to the life and work of a missionary of the Church of Scotland, Mary Slessor of Calabar, a pioneer missionary to one of the most degraded areas in Africa. "Two features stand- out clearly from this life of heroic endeavour and courageous ent.erprise. The first is that power comes to those who pray, and the second is that wisdom is given to those who- earnestly and intelligently study the Bible.5'
