HT0THEJEWFIRST" This is the bedrock of the Jew­ ish Mission appeal to every Bible- believing soul. “To the Jew first” is as basic in Missions as faith in Christ is basic in Salvation. Every January brings us an increasing number of gifts “To the Jew first.” And many letters tell us, “Thank you so much for calling my atten­ tion to my duty and privilege. I want to start the New Yeaj1right.” Think it over, for some day you too will join this blessed host and you too will say, “I want to preach God’s Gospel in God's way—to the Jew first.” Was there ever a time in the world’s history when this precious privilege, “To the Jew first,” was more imperative than in this present hour? With Israel in the caldron of demon hate, with the world being driven by Satan himself to exterminate, if that were possible, the people whom God has called His very own, can any true child of God withhold the heart and the hand of pity ? Ought we not while He still tarries, reach out with a ministry of love to those sorely harassed and dis­ tressed people, who know not which way to turn? "To the Jew first” indeed has a potent mean­ ing in such an hour as this! Our work merits your every con­ fidence. Our field is not only the 4,000,000 Jews of America, but, under divine impulse, we are at grips with the problem of reaching a world Jewry with the Gospel. In America, branches are maintained in the larger cities. In the war- torn countries of Europe we are doing our utmost to bring comfort and help to many weary and broken Jews who are the victims of Nazi hate. Through affiliated missions and missionaries, our Yiddish publications are being dis­ tributed in the important Jewish centers of the world. Your help and prayers are al­ ways needed. “ T H E C H O S E N PEOPLE,” loved by Bible Students for its helpf.ul information on Prophecy and the Jews, is sent to contributors. MAY WE HEAR FROM YOU?
