Acts 9:8-9 And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand… I. THE OLD MUST PASS AWAY. 1. The old light is gone. 2. The old enjoyments are no longer palatable. 3. The old activity is paralysed. 4. The old friends are away. II. THE NEW IS QUIETLY PREPARING. 1. A new light is kindling within. 2. A new salvation is rising up in the soul. 3. Strength is collecting for a new calling. 4. New friends are standing at the door. (K. Gerok.) Parallel Verses KJV: And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus. |
