WHEN- DID JESUS DIE? In regard to the article by Rev. L. A. Hartman, “When Did Jesus Die?” (April, 1960), there are more things connected with the death of Jesus than set forth in this article. As for me, I stick with good old Dr. R. A . Torrey in his booklet, “Diffi culties in the Bible,” page 101. I think it well to publish this article in T H E K ING ’S BUSINESS. W as Jesus really three days and three nights in the heart of the earth? I would like to know Rev. Hartman’s affiliation. Rev. C. A. Bolcom, San Francisco, California E ditor ’ s N ote : Mr. Hartman’s background is as follows: Graduate of Findlay College, Findlay, Ohio. Professional Education training at Elizabethtown College, Eliza bethtown, Pa. Ordained by the East Penn sylvania Eldership of the Churches of God in North America—denominational head quarters at Harrisburg, Pa.

In a forthcoming issue, we will be print ing Dr. R. A. Torrey’s article, “ Was Jesus Three Days and Three Nights in the Tomb?” KB G IFT TO MISSIONARIES For the past several months, for the second straight year, our family has been receiving TH E K ING ’S BUSINESS mag azine free as a gift subscription. Some dear friend, unknown to us, again is sending us this gift subscription and our family wishes to take this opportunity to express to you our very deep appreciation for this love gift of TH E K ING ’S BUSINESS magazine. W e look forward to each issue and are spiritually helped in many ways by the many fine articles of your authors on Christian living. I am a missionary teacher here in the Taiwan Christian College where I have been the past 4)4 school years teaching English and Bible. W e have over 1,000 Chinese and Taiwanese students in this registered Science and Engineering Col lege and it is estimated about of the students are Christians and the rest a mix ture of other Far Eastern religions so it presents a real challenge to evangelism. The Lord led me into a personal evange lism ministry here with my students and to the Lord’s glory He has led me to lead to Himself 28 students in my home and office the past 2)4 years. It is a slow work which takes much patience, love, prayer, and faith for the Lord to work to bring these students to Himself but what a joy when one sees his need of Christ as Lord and Saviour. Last semester I led 8 of them to Christ in m y office and will again this semester begin to evangelize them for the Lord. How wonderful to have some human part in the salvation of an eternal soul. Truly the Lord Jesus is a wonder worker,

REACH ING THE FORGOTTEN CONT INENT Only within the last generation has Europe been recognized as a vast mission field. Certainly it is the forgotten or lost continent of the world, with a quarter of the earth's population, 98% of whom are unsaved. One million Europeans die every six weeks. This entire generation will go into eternity with many never hearing the Gospel of Christ, because methods of reaching them are inadequate without the help of radio. Europe has 101 million radio sets, a great potential for receiving the Gospel of Christ. Your assistance is urgently needed. TWR Monte Carlo will be "on the air" this Septem ber in 28 languages— to Europe, the Middle East, North Africa and behind the Iron Curtain. More dollar-a-month Radio Partners are needed. Pray, then give to this radio ministry. TRANS WORLD RADIO, "TH E VO ICE OF TAN G IER " 354 Main St., Chatham, N. J. Paul E. Freed, President
