REFUGEE HARVEST IN BERLIN Rev. Arvid F. Carlson*, just back from Rerlin where he ministered in refugee camps, says: “I saw the power of God at work! Those strained, lined, worried faces so deeply marked by disappointment and sorrow, will haunt me through many days to come. Almost every hand went up as l gave the invitation to accept Christ . . . The breath of God was on the final meet ing particularly. Some 25 out of 100 pres ent remained for salvation—THE REF UGEE CAMP MINISTRY IN BERLIN IS A STIRRING CHALLENGE FOR EVANGELISM.” Your fellowship in enlarging this fruitful spiritual and physical ministry among Europe’s millions of destitute, neglected, forgotten people is earnestly desired.

God is interested in this relationship just as He is in man’s relation to Himself. When sin came into the world through Adam’s disobedience man’s entire relation ship was spoiled—both with God and with his fellow men. Not until the heart is re turned to the Lord through Jesus Christ can there be a restoration of fellowship with God and with our fellow men. STUDY QUESTIONS 1. What does it mean to honor our parents? (v. 12.) See Eph. 6:1-3. 2. What promise is appended to this commandment? (v. 12b.) 3. What is the meaning of the sixth commandment? (v. 13.) Is there such a thing as justified killing? What about capital punishment and war? (Rom. 13.1-7.) Remember that God Himself com manded His people to war on pagan na tions in Old Testament times. Is He thus guilty of breaking His own law? The answer is obvious. Killing in the sixth commandment has to do then with mur der, not with justice. 4. Why is adultery a sin? (v. 14.) Think of adultery as a sin against God, against self, against another, against the family, against society, against the Church. See Matt. 19:1-9, etc. 5. What is the eighth commandment? (v. 15.) Look up New Testament refer ences to this same commandment, for example, Eph. 4:28, etc. What are some of the ways a man can rob God? (cf. Mai. 3:7-15.) Think also about a man’s time and talent as well as his treasure. 6. What is the ninth commandment? (v. 16.) Look up New Testament verses on lying and gossip and tale-bearing,,etc. 7. What is the tenth commandment? (v. 17.) What is the meaning of covetous ness? (Col 3:5). Jan. 23, 1955 We Sfudy the New Commandment John 13:33-35; 1 John 3:14-24 DAILY READINGS Jan. 17 —
