H E H IK E S T H E N EW K . B . “Let me sound a note of praise to those who are sending forth the new King’s Business. Have taken quite a number of different religious periodicals in the last 30 years, but The King’s Business to me is the finest. I enjoy every copy.” —From Wesleyville, Pa. “ H OW R E A D E S T T H O U ? ” “I want to thank you and the great good Christian men who write for The King’s Business for the great peace of mind and happiness which I now have. In a little less than two months I will be sixty-three years of age, and I believe for the last thirty years I have tried hard to do what was right but had no peace of mind. But after reading The King’s Business for the last two years, and committing considerable of the same to memory, I be gan to thoroughly understand, realize and appreciate enough of the New Testament to know that ‘the blood of Jesus Christ cleansqth from all sin’ and to claim the prom ise ‘Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved and thine house.’ The King’s Business has been a great blessing to me.”—F. B. M., Los Angeles, Cal. SC IE N C E AND H E A L T H D ISCA RD ED “In sending in my renewal for The King’s Business I want to tell you of one instance where the magazine has brought a family to the place where they want to study the Bible. They were going to take up Christian Science—had even bought a ‘Science and Health’ text book—when The King’s Business was sent to them by one of your students. They read the magazine and have since sold their Science and Health and are interested in the Bible. I know you like to hear of the good being accomplished by The King’s Business and I want you to know I am a booster for it. It is the best religious magazine I have ever read.” T H E M IS S IO N A R IE S A P P R E C IA T E T H E K IN G ’S BU S IN E S S Those of The King’s Business family who have contrib uted to the free fund for sending the magazine to mission aries will be interested in the following letter from Ven- zuela: “Let me tell you how timely your gift is. We have been for the last two years in Ciudad Bolivar, and while there had the privilege of reading The King’s Business, the miss ionary in charge receiving it through a friend in Western Canada. The Lord now has brought us on to this city of Barcelona, where there are no other Christians, and where the fight will be hard for some time to come. It seems to me as though you were Divinely led to favor us thus. We love the spirit of the paper. Many times have we re ceived fresh zeal to press on in the “fight of faith.” The manner in which you seek to extol the Bible above any other book warms the heart of the true child of God. We feel deeply grateful for the gift, and assure you that it is seed cast into good ground. These poor, benighted souls around will undoubtedly be benefited by what you are seeking to do for Him." Is it not worth while to have a share in such a blessed ministry? Contributions to this fund are always welcome, for we want to respond'to every call from the mission field. P R A Y S F O R T H E K IN G ’S B U S IN E S S DA ILY “We receive The King’s Business regularly and find great help and blessing through the ministry -of its pages. I daily remember you and your work at the throne of grace. Please pray for God’s work in this part of the country! ‘Mercy drops ’round us are falling; but for the showers, we plead.’ ” (From a Saskatchewan friend). We are sure a great many of The King’s Business Family pray that God will guide and bless its testimony, but we covet every member of the family in this blessed fellowship of intercession. “Prayer changes things!”
