Meet the Challenge We appreciate receiving your maga zine. Thank you for sending it. As we are about at the end of the line, our remarks may be rather late reaching you. I would like to meet the challenge set forth by Mary L. Gallivan in the July Reader Reaction. She challenges anyone to prove that it may NOT be through the “Virgin” that God bestows His power to the rest of mankind. She may prove this to herself if she is at all informed in the teaching of the Roman Catholic church. If she believes the Apostolic Creed to be the teaching of the Roman Catholic church, then she ought to believe in one indivisible God, who manifested Himself to us in three Persons—Father, Son and Holy Ghost. If she believes it to be the teaching of the Roman Catholic church that God is omnipresent and omniscient, then she will have to admit that nobody else is omnipresent or omniscient, not even the “Virgin.” Thus she will be compelled to see that the “Virgin” is in no position to hear any petitions made to her, much less to answer them. This should be suf ficient to any one with sound reason and fully in accord with the teaching of the Roman Catholic church. If the NOW teaching of the Roman Catholic church requires belief in things which are con trary to the original apostolic teachings, she has to decide on the consequences. God will hold each one of us responsible. C harles L ukesh U.S. Zone Germany I thank God for such a magazine as yours.

The author states that Mrs. E. G. White’s writings are “permeated with contradictions of the Scripture” ; yet he fails to cite one contradiction! Now I consider myself to be an open-minded person, ready to accept truth, yet should I find “ contradictions” which would an nihilate my faith in Mrs. White's writ ings, I would still be a Seventh-Day Adventist; because, as a Christian, I base my faith on the Bible, the supreme Word of God. In my studies I have found my beliefs to be substantiated in (Continued on Page H ) N O V E M B E R , 1 9 5 1
