The In stitute, howeve r, does sta nd for a d efinite doctrinal statement of fait h. All its teache rs a nd directors, rega rdl ess of de nominat io nal affiliation , are req uired once a yea r to sig n the Statement of Fai th. All moneys co ntribu ted to th e Inst itute w ill be hel d in violabl e for the teaching of these t ru ths . The In stitute is unde r mora l a nd lega l obli gat ion to do thi s, a nd permis- sio n to teach what is cont rary to these truths would be a violation of it s Constitution.
STATEMENT OF FAITH I.
The Bible, consist ing of a li the books of the O ld and New T estament s, is the wo rd of God, a supe rnat urall y g ive n revelation from God, Himse lf, con ce rning Him se lf, Hi s being, nat ure, cha racte r, w ill and purposes; and concerning man , hi s nature , need, duty a nd desti n y. The Scriptures of the O ld and NewTestaments a re wit hout e rror or mi sstateme nt in the ir moral and spiritual teachings and record of hi storical facts . They are wi thout e rror or defect of a ny kind . JI. The re is one G oel, ete rnally ex isting and manifesting Himself to us in three P er so ns-Fathe r, Son and Holy Spirit . III . The Lord Jesus was supe rnatura ll y conce ived by the powe r of the H oly Spirit and born of a virg in-Ma ry, a linea l descenda nt of David . H e li ved a nd taught a nd ,,. wrought mighty works a nd wonde rs a nd sig ns, exactl y as is recorded in the four Gospels. He was put to death by c rucifixio n und e r Pontius Pil ate. God rai sed from th e dead the body t hat had been nai led to the cross. T he Lord Jesus after Hi s cruci fix ion showed H im se lf ali ve to Hi s di sc ipl es, a ppea ring unto them by the space of fo rty clays . After thi s the Lord Jesus asce nded into H eaven, a nd the Father ca used Him to sit a t Hi s right hand in t he heave nl y places, fa r above a ll rul e a nd authority a nd power a nd dominion a nd eve ry name that is named, not onl y in thi s world, but a lso in tha t whi ch is to come, a nd put al l t hings in subj ection unde r Hi s fee t, a nd gave Him to be H ead over a ll things to the Ch urch. IV. The Lord Jesus, before His inca rnation, ex isted in t he form of God, and of His own choice laid as ide Hi s di vine glory and took upon Himself the form of a servant, a nd was made in t he likeness of m en. In Hi s pre-ex istent state , He was with God a nd was God. He is a divine person, possessed of a ll the attributes of D e ity, and should be worshi pped as God by a ngels a nd m en. " In Him dwelleth a ll the fulness of the Godh ead bodily. " A ll the wo rd s that He spoke during Hi s ea rthly li fe were the wo rd s of God. There is absolute ly no e rror of any kind in them, and by the words of Jesus C hr ist the wo rd s of all other teache rs mu st be tested. V. The Lord Jesus became in eve ry respect a rea l man , possessed of a ll the esse ntial characte risti cs of human nature. VI. By H is death upon the c ross, the Lord Jesus made a perfect ato neme nt for sin , by

home a nd in the mission fields abroad, where they ha ve mad e, and are making splen did records as heralds of the Gospel and winners of men for Chri st . 2. Graduates of colleges and theologica l semina ri es who desire to supplement the knowledge obtained in college and seminary by a more thorough st ud y of the E ngli sh Bible, practical method s of agg ress ive C hri stian work, a nd the most effective methods of teaching the Bible. 3. Young men and women who wish to train for the ed ucational work of the church-e.g., Directors of Christian Education, Girls' Workers, Boys' Workers, Pas tors ' Assistants, etc. The importance of thi s work is being increas ingly recogni zed, and to meet the need we are offering a three years' specia li zed course in Christian Education-a course eva nge li ca l in point of view and thoroughly pedagogical and practical in method. 4. Men and women who are planning to go to the foreign mission field . More tha n three hundred men and women who have bee n trained in the Bible In stitute of Los Angeles are now doing effect ive wo rk in the fore ig n field. 5. Foreign missionaries home on furlough . Many of those who ha ve had expe ri ence in the field need during their days of furlough to increase thei r knowledge of the Bible a nd the met hod s of Christian wo rk now in use. Not infrequently they find that there is no place so we ll adapted for thi s purpose as the Bible Institute. 6. Men and women preparing fo r various forms of Chri stian wo rk such as eva n gelists, singing eva ngelists, superinte ndents of Christian institution s, Sunday school workers, assistant pastors, church visitors, Young Men's Christian Assoc iat ion secre taries, Young Women's Christian Association Sec reta ri es, city mission wo rkers, res cue mission workers. 7. Men and women who do not intend to gi ve their whol e time to definite forms of Chr istian service, but w ho des ire a larger knowledge of the Bible and prac tical methods of wo rk, in order that they may be more useful in their home churches. Large numbers of men and women have gone through the Bible In stitute wi th no intention of g iving their entire li fe to defi nite C hri stian wo rk. Not a few of these afterwards have gone into the pastorate and other forms of Christian wo rk, but many of them have gone back to their churches to be a help to their pastor a nd to the Christian life of the community. 8. Men already in the mini stry who feel the need of a more thorough, accurate and practical knowl edge of the English Bible. An eve r increasi ng number of men who have had successful experience in the ministry a re coming to the Bible In stitute to take advantage of its facilities for equipment for increas ing usefulness. ADVANTAGES AND PRIVILEGES First of all we are very fo rtunate in our staff of teachers. They a re all men a nd women of true Chri stian li fe and ex perience, deeply taught in the Word of God a nd each espec ially prepared for hi s or her own particular line of wo rk . The second adva ntage of the Bible In st itute of Los Angeles is found in its loca tion. There is probably no more hea lth ful climate in all the world than that of thi s city. The student here is free from all the physical st rain that one is necessa ril y under, either in summer or w inter, in most large cities in other sections of the United States. Many coming to Los Angeles in run-down phys ica l condition, soon regain abou nding, hea lth . But this is not the only advantage in the locati on of the Bible In st itute in thi s city. It is doubtful if there is a ny other city on the globe where there it at the present

Grea t emphasis is laid upon the deve lopment of the sp iritual li fe of the st udent. If a ny student should go from the school w ithout a more intimate, personal acquaint ance with Jesus C hri st, or w ithout more of t he powe r of the Holy Spirit in his life and wo rk , the In st itute would have fa il ed in hi s case at the vital point. The st ud y of music is made a prominent feature of the Insti tute training, so that men a nd women may be p repa red to teach music, lead choirs, and ass ist otherwise in thi s important department of C hri stian work. W hil e the Institute music course pre pares st udents fo r the wo rk of the singi ng eva nge li st, it is not intended for any one who simply wishes ed ucat ion in music. The mu sic wo rk of the Inst itute is always made subordinate to the st udy of the Bible, a nd music is taught only as a mea ns of qualifying one for more effec tive soul -winning se rvice. DEVOTIONAL LIFE It begins wit h the awakening of the day. O ne hour is all owed between the rising bell a nd the breakfast bell for dress ing and the quiet hour period-an opportun ity to look to God before looking upon men. During the superinte nde nts' half hour imme d iate ly following the morning meal, the men and women ga ther in the two rooms respect ively assig ned for morning devotion. The students assembl e again at th e close of the evening meal, fo r a season of praye r and test imony. A no ther dai ly feat ure of g reat he lpfulness is the co rrido r prayer meeting . The student s on each corridor gather in a stude nt 's room at whateve r hour is most con veni ent, to discuss their perplexing personal problems a nd to present them to God fo r solu tion. It is here that definiteness in prayer is lea rned, as perhaps at no othe r gather ing. INFORMATION FOR PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS HOW TO MAKE APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION Persons desiring to enroll as st udents of the Bible In st itu te shoul d wri te for a n application fo rm to the Superintendent of Men or Women, as the case may be. D irec tions concern ing fi lling it out should be foll owed explicitly . No one is accepted as a student until afte r the refe rences g ive n by him have been hea rd from. Appli cants shoul d not present themselves at the In stitute expecting to be received as st ude nts until not ifi ed of their accepta nce. ARRIVING IN LOS ANGELES Several lines of rai lroads enter Los Angeles, coming in at different stations. It is impossible to meet students at t he train s. Incoming students, howeve r, should notify the Super intendent of Men or Women, as the case may be, as to the t ime t heir tra in is sched ul ed to a rri ve in Los Angeles, a nd also the road over which they a re traveling. We adv ise that women unaccompa ni ed take a Yellow Cab from depot to Women's Hotel, 558 South Hope Street . Present rate from Santa Fe D epot is fifty fi ve cents; from Southern Pacifi c, forty-five ce nt s. Immed iately upon ar ri va l at the Instit ute, men should report to the Superintendent of Men, a nd women to the Super intendent of Women. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS Young men a nd women making appl ication for admiss ion to the In stitute should be at least eighteen yea rs of age, and in reasonabl y sound health.

THE FINANCES OF THE INSTITUTE The In stitute makes no charge for tuition other than sli ght incidental registra tion fees . From certain in vestment s t here is a limited income but the Institute de pends also upon the voluntary contrib uti ons of its frie nd s. Voluntary co ntributions may be made in one of seve ral ways:
OUTRIGHT GIFTS
ENDOWMENTS
ANNUITIES
BEQUESTS
BIOLA ANNUITIES
One hund red doll a rs or more may be g ive n to the In st itute on the Annuity Plan. An annuity guara ntees to t he donor who is ca ll ed the annuitant a li fe income of from 4% to 9 1/,: accord ing to age. The Bibl e In stitute of Los A nge les has bee n iss uing annuit ies since 1917. Its annuit y rese r ve fu nds a re separate and di stinct from all other fund s a nd a re admi n istered under competent in vestment coun se l in pursua nce w ith the laws of the State of California. An nuitants enjoy a host of advantages, whi ch a re set fo rth in a booklet that may be had without obli ga tion by wr iting to the In st itute. Some of the more important adva ntages accrui ng to annuitants are: Annuities are beyond the risk.. of speculation and the vicissitudes of trade and commerce. Incomes from annuities are not subject to fl uctuation or annihilation .
The worry and hazard of reinvestment with the fre quent loss of interest incident thereto are completely eliminated by annuities. Annuities entail no cost fo r litigation or adm inistra tion and eliminate the possibility of alienation of gift from tlie intention of the giver. Annuitants past middle age receive income at rates in excess of ordinary rates of interest and dividends .
