A n inductive stu d y of th e fa c ts in th e life, developm ent an d c h a ra c te r of Paul, w ith te rse a n d pointed com m ents thereon. C loth $1.00 The Man Paul
said, “ for I bear, branded on my body; th e m arks of the Lord Jesus.” Let no man make him self disagreeable by preaching heresy to me. It is not worth while. Even if he could persuade me, Christ's m ark of ownership, His “ brands” are on me and I should soon be identified and reclaimed. Brands! Sore eyes from th a t ligh t on the Damascus ro ad ; scars from scourgings, w rinkles and fu r rows from hardships and sufferings, token of conflicts and victories. Surely such a man should be exempted from the buzzing annoyance of those who would tu rn men away from the tru e Gospel of God. The Marks of th e Lord Jesu s If we are tru e.C h ristian s we also bear th e m arks of the Lord Jesus. And He bears ours. We p u t th e stigm ata on His body on th e cross. He gave H imself to us and we branded Him our own! We have given ourselves to Him and He has branded us, His. Why, then, should we not partake of P au l’s confidence, indignation and disgust, and w ithout much ceremony wave th e obtrusive erro rists and paralyzers of faith of our day back into th e darkness from which they have emerged? The eighteenth century blew its brains out w ith its lib erty, fra te rn ity and equality, social contact and the F rench Revolution. The nineteenth did the same for itself w ith assaults upon the Word of God and a razzle-dazzle theology. May we hope for better things for the tw entieth? Not unless men will once more stroiigly assert th a t th ere is such a th ing as tr u th and th a t it is worth contending for; and such a th ing as error, which must be opposed and put down. m m The Bible In stitu te Colportage Association of Chicago (D. L. Moody, founder) desires to get in to touch bene ficially w ith Christian workers anywhere in th e United States who are m inistering spiritually to prisoners, those comm itted to poor houses or “ farm s,” as well as th e boys and girls sent to state indu strial or reform schools. The Association has a provision for the supplying, gratuitously, Gospel books, Scripture portions,/etc.
