vi PREFACE His grace." This He did in a super-eminent way following the resurrection of our Lord. God^s witness in apostle and evangelist was the witness of a regenerated, re-created, enlarged manhood. To the fisherman, to the scribe, to the student, to the physician, to the tent-maker, had been revealed visions of God; and these visions, in the power of Christ, made men who feared God, and did not tremble before the face of man — made men who moulded subsequent ages. To her wonderfully instructive volumes in this series, ^'Patriarchs and Prophets," ''The Desire of Ages," and "The Great Controversy," the author has added "The Acts of the Apostles," a record of God's witnesses subsequent to the life of our Lord. By this Spirit-aided book a flood of light is thrown upon the apostolic church and its momentous meaning to us of this tirae. The church militant demands the church triumphant. Through all her warfare, her trials, her defeats, she has seen the vision of factory. Above all the discordant noises of earth, she has heard the ringing, cheering voice of her Captain. He who suffered for her children is choosing them to reign with Him. He who came in humiliation to die, the Suffering One, is coming again in glory, the Eegnant One forever. The publishers are pleased to be privileged to give to" the waiting, longing souls, to the earnest, working souls, and to the great public who long for the salvation which is in Christ Jesus, this helpful book, this story of God's witnesses.
