THE DEAN'S MESSAGE

Greetings: In the name of the same Lord and in the same words which the missionary Paul wrote to the believers at Corinth, we challenge you, "I seek not yours, but you." We count it a privilege to fellowship with hundreds of young men and women whose heart desire is "to know Him and make Him known," to gain a more than working knowl­ edge of Scripture, and to master effective methods of gospel presentation in the homeland and the regions beyond. Truly our students are possessed by a God-given passion for souls and for the edification of the church of Jesus Chri st our Lord. Our graduates have been used around the world in part-time and full-time Christian work. We invite you to consider the Bible Institute of Los An­ geles as a school of training for Christian leadership.

CHRIST'S CALL TO YOUTH * * * The Lord Jesus is interested in your not only accepting Him as Saviour, but also being willing to say: ' 'I'll go where You want me to go, dear Lord, O'er mountain, or plain, or sea; I'll say what You want me to say, dear Lord, I'll be what You want me to be." Then, and only then, does He really have you. Only then can He use you as He wills , for Hi s honor and glory . There is usually a call to preparation for new and greater usefulness. If Christ's prepa­ ration call to you includes Biola, we should be most happy to extend you the cordial hand of fellowship . LIFE INVESTMENT * * * "A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men ." In other words, there are open doors of service for young people who are prepared. The Lord has a plan for every life. His plan is always perfect. Some young Christians are anxious to get into service before they are prepared. We maintain at the Bible Institute of Los Angeles a training school for Christian workers. The One Book is the Book we study. Other books and study-helps are used only as means for understanding and proclaiming God's own Word . Because of this emphcsis, young people are well fitted for definite Christian service at home or abroad through their

training here.-WALTER R. HALE. E. RASMUSSEN

FRUITFULNESS * * * Our living together as an Institute fam­ ily in the dormitory affords one means of de­ veloping a well-rounded, balanced Christian life such as is presented in Colossians 1:10: "That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God."-CHARLOTTE E. RASMUSSEN.
