THE KING'S BUSINESS AND THE FUTURE

CONTENTS

So great has been the demand o f our readers fo r a return to a plain “ black and white” magazine that with this issue we are happy to be able to comply with their request. How­ ever, due to the increased cost, we are obliged to reduce the number o f pages slightly. We p refer this to an increase in the subscription price. The high quality o f the contents will not be a f­ fected in any way. In this issue appears the first in a series o f expository messages on Ezekiel 36-39 from the pen o f Dr. Louis T. Talbot. These illuminating expositions o f the prophecies relating to Palestine and the Jews are partic­ ularly timely in view o f the violent struggle now taking place in the Holy Land. Included also is the first in another series o f articles on the false religious cults. Next month, Dr. E. B. Jones, a form er Seventh Day Adventist mis­ sionary, will begin his exposé o f that religious system. His first install­ ment will be entitled, “ Seventh Day Adventism— Its Foundation,” to be followed by “ Its Faith,” “ Its Frauds,” and “ Its Fruits.” Dr. Robert G. Lee, pastor o f the Bellevue Baptist Church o f Memphis, Tennessee, has prepared a moving and heart-warming Thanksgiving message fo r the November number, which will be helpful to all believers. In November as well Dr. G. Cole­ man Luck, now an instructor at Moody Bible Institute, will resume his discussion o f the churches o f Revelation with the third church, Thyatira, which he calls, “ The Church o f Jezebel.” We feel that we have been most fortunate in securing these valuable articles and are sure that our readers will not wish to miss any issues. In addition, our regular departments will continue, and there will be discus­ sions o f missions" and other matters o f interest to the church o f Christ. We solicit the prayers o f Christians that The K ing’s Business may g lorify the Lord Jesus Christ and be useful in His service. O C T O B E R , 1947
