Over His Own Signature By Leslie D. Weatherhead

the 70th week of Daniel which in­ volves a secret return of Christ to the earth in the middle of the week at the execution of Stephen (thus the title) and the ending of the second three and a half years with the con­ version of Cornelius in Acts 10. A strange reliance upon now conserva­ tive and then liberal scholarship is evident throughout the work. 263 pages; cloth; Vantage Press, New York, N.Y.; $3.50. Subtitled The Art of Sermon Illus­ tration this book evidences a fresh approach to sermonic illustration. The author treats sources, beginnings, responding to introductions and vari­ ous categories of illustrative stories. The stories themselves are fresh and new. 157 pages; cloth; Fleming H. Revell Co., Westwood, N.J.; $1.95. Lingering at Calvary By S. Franklin Logsdon Twenty-one sermons on the passion of our Lord make up the subject mat­ ter of this book, each alliterated in subject, as “ The Place of Punish­ ment,” “The Place of Pondering” and “The Place of Perplexity.” The style is vigorous and the matter is soundly based upon Scripture. The sermons will give the reader a new apprecia­ tion of the sufferings of Christ. 160 pages; cloth; Moody Press, Chicago, 111.; $2.50. Devotions for Juniors By Ava Leach James Children can read these 146 single­ page devotions for themselves since they are written in simple language and printed in fairly large type. Each is based upon a Scripture text and worked out upon the child’s own' level at the junior age. A Scripture index is included. 154 pages; cloth; Zonder­ van Publishing House, Grand Rapids, Mich.; $2.00. Boiv I Can Make M y Life Hundreds of very practical sugges­ tions and plans for the Christian’s most effective use of leisure time for God are discussed here.

A well-known English preacher of liberal persuasion presents a devo- | tional study of Christ’s pictures of I Himself, using His own words in the gospels. The author, in discussing Jesus as the Good Shepherd, omits any reference to Him as giving His life for the sheep. 155 pages; cloth; Abingdon Press, New York, N.Y.; $2.50. The W orld ’s Collision By Charles E. Pont This surprisingly full study of world conditions in the light of the imminent premillennial return of our Lord reveals an untiring spirit of inquiry and research on the part of the author. The quotations from con- | temporary literature and news sources I will be useful to the preacher of prophecy. The introduction was writ- | ten by E. Schuyler English. The index is helpfully full. 298 pages; i cloth; W. A. Wilde Co., Boston, Mass.; $3.50. Elijah, the Prophet of Fire By John R. MacDuff The Baker Reprint Library brings back to the market one of the most beloved of a famous Scottish minis­ ter’s books. Perhaps few preachers of our day prepare long series of mes­ sages on single Bible characters. These pages bring Elijah to life with the hope that many may be raised up “ in the spirit and power of Elias” to do God’s work. 351 pages; cloth; Baker Book House, Grand Rapids, Mich.; $3.00. The seven deadly sins are pride, anger, envy, im p u r i t y , gluttony, slothfulness and avarice, and the evangelist includes here a sermon on each of the categories of sin set up by Gregory the Great at the beginning of the seventh century. The sermons are to the point, as one would expect, with full reference to Scripture. 113 pages; cloth; Zondervan Publishing House, Grand Rapids, Mich.; $2.00. The m il of Stoning By Edward V. Ruskin Independent study of Bible proph- | ecy brought the author to a view of The Seven Deadly Sins By Billy Graham
