This interest is being intensified through the conferences being held in all sections of the country,— Fundamental Conferences where proper emphasis is being given by great Bible teachers to the neglected truths of the Scriptures. Letters come from all directions praising God for this blessed work. In addition to this, Prophetic Associations are being formed through­ out the country bringing into close fellowship the evangelists, ministers and teachers of all denominations. ’ This is both Scriptural and sensible. “ How can two walk together except they be agreed?” Here a bond is created which strengthens and encourages those who have some real fighting to do, assuring them of fel­ lowship and prayer in this good work. , _ This is a good sign, and it is reasonable to believe that these associa­ tions will he multiplied as the days go by.

Quota­ tions from the speakers were widely published under startling headlines, for some editors seem to glory in the fact that modern scholarship is com­ ing to agree with men who have always ridiculed the Bible and Christianity. Here is one result of the scattering of these liberal opinions through the newspapers. The Buddhist Chronicle of Ceylon gets out a special issue. A large headline says, ‘ ‘ Christ not Divine '.
