become spiritually related to Him. I went forward to kneel and pray. There I accepted the Lord as my own Saviour. He has been very real to me in everything that concerns itself with life. He can and wants to be the same to you. This is the testimony of the young people who go to Biola. This is where everyone must begin if he wants to be a member of God’s family. It is the greatest step anyone can take. If you have not done so, for GO YE INTO A LL THE WORLD "Go ye into all the world!" And have we gone? As we unruffled knowing that the dawn In heathen lands, means but a day begun? Another day without the blessed Son Of righteousness and peace. Sinking deeper in the dark morass of sin. Hopeless and lost, At last to enter into an eternal night? 'Oh God of love, In tender pity from Thy throne above, Beholding them and willing That not one should ever perish.

Too many people tragically have failed to see the dif­ ference between joining a church and becoming a child of God. You ought not to join a church until first of all you are a Christian. Long before I became a minister I entered the Christian way of life. There was a day in the city of Minne­ apolis when I saw myself as a son of Adam.
