Necessarily we must differ with many pas- „tors and people because we are committed to a very definite doctrinal basis. These doctrines (held in common with the historic orthodox churches) it is our special mission to emphasize. Our fellowship is with all the members' of Christ’s Body—all who acknowledge the vital truths of salvation. The Bible Institute operates no church and has no thought of starting a new church. Its faculty members are all connected with denomi­ national churches and active in them. Our stu­ dents are assigned for their practical work to the churches of their own denominations. The Bible Institute depends upon church members for its support. This magazine is a magazine for every Chris­ tian home. It will meet prevalent errors with posi­ tive truths, but it will not engage in “ knocking” pastors and churches. W e aim to carry a message of helpfulness in every issue for pastors, Sunday- school teachers, directors of Christian education, Christian Endeavor leaders, young people, chil­ dren, shut-ins, fathers and mothers (who conduct the family altar); Gospel musicians.
