THE K I NG ' S B U S I N E S S

IS IT A PIOUS FRAUD? A New York paper some tim e ago advanced an argum en t relative to th e Bible, th a t savors of good reasoning. And th e re is no sense a t all in deny­ ing th e au th o rity of th e Bible and ^et making no attem p t to get rid of it as a dangerous book. I t certainly would be a bad book if its claims to divine au tho rity were no t w arran ted , because then it would be a false guide. Com­ mon sense requ ires th a t th e Bible be accepted as w hat it claims to be or th a t it be kicked out of th e churches as a pious fraud. When th e higher critics face th is altern ativ e openly, we sh all be able to respect th e ir frankness a t least.

E very fo rm er stud en t (and, fo r th a t m a tte r, everyone who is in terested in th e spread of v ital Christianity in these days) should be a m ember of th e F e l­ lowship Association of th e B ible In sti­ tu te of Bos Angeles.

Any person becomes a m ember of th e Association by th e paym ent of $5 each year, and a m embership certificate is issued. The fee, of course, goes to th e w ork of th e In stitu te, an d th e member th e n h as a h e a rt in te re st in th e work an d engages to p ray daily fo r th e work. The K ings Business is sen t free to all members.
