Institute Expenses It is costing money to run the Bible Institute of Los Angeles, and more money than it has ever cost before. Its directors would not do anything for the raising of money which would seem at this time to be bidding against the gov ernment for support. There never was a time when there was so great a need of institutions to bear witness to the faith of the Word of God and to train those to go out into the great harvest fields who know how to handle the Word of Life. To curtail the work now in the time of the world’s most"urgent need of the Gospel would he uncharitable as it would also he unfaith ful. The money must he brought in and without the least interference with, or neglect of, what the nation may do or need. Our directors, workers and stu dents have been earnestly praying that the needs may be supplied and'there is no reason to feel that God will not lay the matter upon the hearts of His pe.o- ple. The world is awaking to see the fruits of the German philosophies which have permeated many of the educational and theological schools of our own land. These institutions are backed with mil lions and even now are putting forth their utmost effort to spread their vagaries. The Bible Institute of Los Angeles has stood throughout the years for the unadulterated Word of God. Every dollar given to it will be prayer fully used, and will go far to take the Gospel to those in darkness and to straighten out those who are entangled in the webs of higher criticism and the heresies that have resulted from it.
