Biola Broadcaster - 1961-04

youth will decide the entire struggle of humanity, between these two massive forces which can never be resolved in compromise. As we said at the start, it is a fight—not with men, but with our adversary the Devil, for it is he who is behind all of the evil and Satanic phi­ losophies of the Communist govern­ ment. We endeavor to let our students know of the unfortunate fact how that many youth and student groups right here in our nation can be so easily vic­ timized and exploited by the Reds. Now, the reason for this series over the air has been to point out that we must be aware of what is going on if we are ever to do anything about the men­ ace. A friend of mine was told that his wife had cancer. Do you suppose that he tried to shut the doctor up, to tell himself, as well as his wife, that the condition did not exist? Or was he so afraid of the subject that he didn’t speak a word about it? No, of course not. He did the only thing any loving husband would do. The best medical advice was sought. Every possible care was given to the loved one. The cure for the dis­ ease is based upon knowledge not fear. For those of us on the radio staff, it is our urgent prayer, as we have presented this series of messages over the air, and xlow draw them to a close, that you have been made more aware of the in­ sidious Red menace in our nation. Let us pray for our President, for men in authority, for our youth, and that we ourselves may give a ready witness for Christ each opportunity which presents itself. All the while remembering the words of Almighty God, “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

MENACE OF CO M M U N ISM (cont.) You may be but one voice, but your testimony for Christ and the right can be heard as you pray to God, and live for Christ, according to His blessed Word. As one pertinent suggestion, however, may I state that if you want some excellent materials on this subject, you can get a complete listing from our Government Printing Office in Wash­ ington, D.C. They have a special bul­ letin which is available, free, listing 56 informative publications on Commu­ nism. You can get a copy by writing directly to the Government Printing Office, Washington 25, D. C. Especially if you work with youth in the church or Sunday School you’ll want this ex­ cellent help. May I also point out that it is be­ cause of the growing menace of Com­ munism that we feel our task here at Biola must be urgently pushed forward with all speed and gravity. The primary target of the Reds is our American youth; of this there can be no mistake. Here in the four schools of Biola, we are training nearly 1,000 young men and women each year, who are not only thoroughly grounded in the Word of God, but also who know and love the principles for which this nation stands, and upon which it was founded. Fre­ quently, you will hear testimonies by these young people who say, “I am going to be teaching in a school.” Some have written, “Why don’t all of your young people go to the foreign field.” Actually, a large percentage of them do go, but still, we have the great respon­ sibility here in our nation to train god- ■ly men and women to teach the boys and girls of our land. For if the founda­ tions be destroyed, what can the right­ eous do? I trust you will pray more earnestly, with the understanding of the work, for the young people who are now in training here at the four schools of the Bible Institute Hour, Los An­ geles. The Leninist principle has been that

"The blood that 1 makes you a friend to God, makes you a foe to sin."
