The New Testament and the Laws of Evidence By HARRY RIMMER In this fine book of apologetics, the author assumes the role o f law yer and allow s the reader to be the judge. The case fo r consideration is the credibility and authenticity o f the New Testament record, exam ined and scrutinized accord ­ ing to the same law s o f evidence as in a reg.ular legal procedure. W hat a thrill there is fo r believers to see another p roof of the veracity of God’s W ord in that there is not a single instance in which the evidence of the New Testament is not in harm ony w ith the highest legal order o f the land! The integrity o f the w it­ nesses, the past record \ f injustice ren ­ dered by higher critics; and the firm foundation of Christianity are all dis­ cussed in a m ost interesting and co n ­ vin cin g manner. 119 pages.

A ,Doctor Without a Country By THOMAS A. LAMBIE Am bassador o f Jesus Christ to the Anglo-Sudan, Dr» Lambie saw God w ork m ightily in answ er to prayer in the open­ in g o f A byssinia to m issionary endeavor. A t the cost o f poignant sacrifice, he was w illing, when occasion required, to re­ nounce his allegiance to his own beloved country fo r the gospel’s sake, in acquies­ cence to the personal request' of the Em ­ peror, H. I. H. H aile Selassie. He w rites feelin gly o f the Italian invasion— o f the horrors o f w ar and o f the gracious p ro­ vision o f God fo r those w ho rested “ under H is w in gs” in times o f terror.

Biola’s World-Wide Prayer Circle From Miss Christina J. Braskamp, Secretary of Biola’s World-Wide Prayer Circle, 558 So. Hope St., Los Angeles, Calif., comes encouraging word concern­ ing answers to prayer. The members of the Prayer Circle are those who have covenanted to give at least one hour a week to intercession for the Bible Institute of Los Angeles. In a letter sent to these prayer helpers, Miss Bras­ kamp cites the following items for praise: 1. For the fine missionary and evan­ gelistic spirit prevailing among the stu­ dents at Biola. 2. For the openings for service dur­ ing the summer months which are be­ ing made available to Institute stu­ dents: in migrant camps, Daily Vaca­ tion Bible Schools, etc. 3. For the testimony concerning the Institute which is being given by radio at the Sunday night Back Home Hour (KMTR, 9:30 to 10:15 p.m.). Prayer helpers are reminded of the words of Samue, Zwemer: “Prayer is power. True prayer sets in motion di­ vine forces and restrains evil forces in a way we shall never understand until we stand in the Kingdom of Light.”
