October 24, 1909 edition presents a religious lesson centered on Paul before Festus and Agrippa from Acts 25 6 12 and 26 Golden Text I know whom I have believed. The piece asks who Festus was what Jews asked Pestus to do and why religious bigotry fuels false charges It also ponders whether Paul broke Jewish law and the integrity of judges and Christians awaiting facts versus prejudice It ends with a reflection on where a minister would prefer to be tried and whether a secular or church tribunal is wiser
