King's Business - 1931-07

The Bible in the Home T h e following meaningful article is quoted from Evangelical Christendom : “Public utterances directed to the bring­ ing home to parents their responsibilities in regard to the reading of the Bible in the home are to be warmly applauded. Scripture is full of precepts and warn­ ings concerning religion in the home, and there is no age at which it is too early to commence, if our children are to rise up and call us blessed. “Referring to the subject, the Bishop of Chelmsford said he believed that among the great mass of young people there was a tremendous spirit of honesty and sin­ cerity. They were profoundly anxious to find something that would be a sure guide in life. Perhaps the parents were the hindrance. When he saw parents wring­ ing their hands and complaining that they did not know what to do about their children, he was strongly tempted to say, You have got the children you deserve.’ It is in the home that the Bible should be enshrined as the guide for youth. _ As the date of the Bible Society’s An­ niversary coincided with that of the King’s Accession to the Throne, the chairman recalled the words used by His Majesty about the Bible when he Was crowned: “ ‘It is my confident hope that my sub­ jects may never cease to cherish their no­ ble inheritance in the English Bible, which in a secular aspect is the first of national treasures, and is in its spiritual signifi­ cance the most valuable thing that this world affords.’ ” Parents will profit by interesting their children in T h e K ing ’ s B usi ­ ness . Why not use this means of studying the Bible with them ? Milo F. Jamison, editor of the Christian Endeavor Notes, is giving a constructive and connected series of practical Bible discussion subjects and outlines in the Gospel of John-L/- just the thing for family Bible study. The course began in the June issue. Look up your old copy and begin the work now. The problems of young people of today are treated by Florence Nye Whitwell in the department, Heart to Heart with our Young Readers. The serial story, “The Return of the Tide” by Zenobia Bird, is a wholesome tale that inspires faith. Besides these regular features, read Dr. Stewart P. MacLennan’s mes­ sage in this issue, entitled “The Phil­ osophy of Paul’s Calling.” This stir­ ring address was delivered to th e ' 1931 graduating class of the Bible Institute of Los Angeles. T h e K ing ’ s B usiness is the Bi­ ble family magazine. Let it help you to give to the Word of God its right­ ful place of authority in the home.
