SIGNS OF THE TIMES NUMBER Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the com mon salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ. * * * These are murmfurers, compjlainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men’s persons in admiration because of advantage. But, beloved, remember ye the‘ words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (Jude 3, 4, 17-21.) THE WORLD’S FUNDAMENTALS CONFERENCE ' It is the last week in June, and the Fourth Annual Convention of the "World’s Fundamentals Conference is in session. We are writing for the September number of our magazine, which will be reaching our K ing’s Busi ness family August 1. We are sure that you will all be glad to have a word concerning the personnel of this remarkable gathering. The character of the speakers is as unique as it is varied. God never made any two leaves just alike, and we are glad He did not make any two men just alike. There has been no disappointment in the messengers nor the messages. The Chairman of the Conference, Dr. W. B. Riley, is known to many of you, and to his indefatigable and persistent efforts this movement is due. It has not been an easy task. It has necessitated a separation from his church and school for much of his time, and yet the call has been from God and he. has been loyal to it, and his own people are to be praised for their cheerful sacrifices for the good of the church at large. Get a picture of Dr. Riley, as he stood before a great gathering of the Ministerial Union of our city and addressed the men on the theme, “ Evolution is Neither Scientific nor Scrip tural,” and sympathize with the poor Modernists who wriggled in their seats as the speaker laid down his unanswerable arguments and demanded facts in place of fancies to prove their position. His method was kindly but there was a keenness which left no room for doubt, and the outbursts of applause told the story of the power of the message.
