BIBLE INSTITUTE OF LOS ANGELES NOVEMBER 25, 1944 No one will ever forget t h e Synthesis classes at Biola, and the rich blessings they brought into our lives. Here is the. mes sage of John A. Hubbard, be loved teacher: “It is a real joy to extend this word of greeting to you. It is done in the name of Him who ‘came into the world to save sin ners,’ who now appears ‘in the presence of God for us,’ and who is to ‘appear the second time’ to complete the wonderful salva tion of which, by His grace, we have become partakers. “Of late the words of Isaiah 2:11, 17 have been coming to my mind very often: ‘The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down: AND THE LORD ALONE SHALL BE EXALTED IN THAT DAY.’ May that glad day be hastened! In the meantime, may He alone be exalted in your lives and in your service. For this I shall continue to pray, for you are often in my pray ers.” From Herbert G. Tovey, direc tor of music, comes this word: “It is well to pause in t h e midst of the demands of every day living to meditate upon the blessings of the unity ,of Chris tian fellowship as it exits in our immediate surroundings an d throughout the Biola family in all parts of the world. This irre sistible tie of Christian love shown in the heart of God is an inheritance prized indeed. “With this issue of TH E K I N G ’S BUSINESS comes the sound of carols and the expres sions of Christmas joy. It is with sincerity of heart that we send our greeting to all near and far in the name of Him who came to this world on the wings of an gels’ song, and who caused the world to modulate from the mi nor to the major key.” For special announcements of interest to all our Biola Family, turn to page 432.
W. R. Hale, superintendent of men: “Again the time, of year has arrived when we begin to search for our Christmas lists to be sure of the addresses of friends who, though we have not writ ten often, have been kept in mind during the entire year. In our office we have wished many times that we could write each one of you personally, but this has been impossible. “ It is with joy that we greet you again through these pages. May this Christmas season lead us all closer to the Christ o f God as we rejoice together and qplebrate His birth. “Former students are remem bered at the throne of grace in student devotional meetings. Ac cept our hearty greetings and thanks for all remembrances.” /The Lord has put a new song in our hearts, even praise unto Him who gave His all for us. The following thoughts are from one who has helped -us sing with the spirit and with the under standing—John B. Trowbridge: “Greetings in the name of our Lord on His birthday! May the season be one of blessing as you meditate on dear old Biola where you learned many lessons, some not from books. There were ‘ups and downs’ : new subjects in the classroom, new problems in hard assignments, adjustment to sur roundings, including your room mate, Then came spiritual prob lems: new angles in Scripture interpretation, consciousness of a greater need for prayer; and when'the Lord led you into new vistas of truth, there came a flood of light.’’
