EDITORIAL (coni'.) lute certainty, based upon the clear, infallible statements of the Word of God, that the dead in Christ shall rise first, and then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so shall we ever be with the Lord. This is the true Gospel, and under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, Paul has some very definite things to say about these infidels who are preach ing “ another gospel.” Galatians 1:6- 9: “ I marvel that ye are so soon re moved from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ; But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than t ha t wh i c h we have preached unto you, let him be ac cursed [damned]. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed [damned].” Men like Bultmann and Koester, who belong to the great Lutheran denomination, ought to be ashamed of themselves for trying to discreuit the name and work of Martin Luther who endangered his very life for the cause of Jesus Christ and for the sake of the great doctrines clearly proclaimed in the Word of God. One would respect them if they were men enough to pull out of that honored denomination and start one of their own. But, alas, that is asking too much. Doubtless they are fearful lest they could never make an appreciable impact upon men and gain support apart from their riding along within the framework of the theology of these mighty giants of the past. They need the theological terms al though they reject their Scriptural import. May God help us to be completely discerning and understanding in these days of what we hear and what we read. May we make sure that the statement of any theologian is either geared completely to the plain teach ings in the Word of God or that it completely repudiates God’s truth. There can be no “ twilight zone” of confused misty unbelief covered by words which say one thing and mean another.

And 50,000 Gospels have been allo cated to the “ Sermons from Sci ence” pavilion for distribution at the NEW YORK WORLDS FAIR. ★ These open doors and many calls present a tremendous challenge to move deeper and deeper into the enemy’s territory and take great spoil for the Lord. Confidently we lay these opportunities and needs before the Lord's people, who have never failed us in years of world girdling Scripture distribution, with the reminder that “ there remaincth yet very much land to be possessed.” (Josh. 13:1).
