M a n i s l o o k in g fo r better meth­ ods, while God is looking fo r better men. God is seeking fo r men who use the best and highest meth­ ods in doing H is work, men who are qualified and spiritual. Y o u r community — God’s harvest field — is ripe and ready fo r harvest. D o you know that there are 40 m il­ lion boys and g irls in our country who never attend Sunday school? Do you know that there are 80-90 m illion adults who seldom, if ever, attend church in Am e rica? These people are righ t in you r community. They are your neighbors and mine. They are people fo r whom C h rist died, and apart from personal con­ tact through visitation, w ill never be reached in our complex society today. True as th is may be, many C h ris­ tians say, “Yes, I know it’s true, but I ju st do not know how, nor do I have the qualifications to reach them, even though I be trained” ; “I ju st don’t have what it takes” ; “I ’m not able to talk well” ; “I ’m afra id” ; “I tremble” or “I am too sin fu l.” Here are three H E L P F U L H IN T S that w ill help you to become a quali­ fied, effective V isito r fo r C h rist and fo r your Church. 1. You must know C h rist as your Saviour. It is impossible fo r you to introduce someone to C h rist if you do not know H im yourself. 2. You must know C h rist as the Lord and M aste r of you r life. Know ­ in g C h rist as Saviou r is one thing. Know ing H im as M aste r and Lord of your life is something else. You can enter into such a life if you are w illing to subm it to the Lord.

“ For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us who are saved it is the power of God” (I Corinthians 1:18). Preaching that is potent and dynamic for God must be biblical and must have at its very beating heart the cross of Jesus Christ. The purpose of the homiletic training at TA LBO T THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY is to give men the tools to unfold and proclaim the ancient truth of God in its eternal vitality to this and every age. A basic knowledge of the text itself, a theological structure from which to operate and the careful and skilled use of organizational technique blended within the life of the messenger and bathed in the inspiration and power of the Holy Spirit will flow forth to the hearts of needy men. Effective homiletic training must not produce just another interpreter of the word and philosophy of men, but it must produce an expositor of the W ord of God, to whom the ministry of reconciliation is both a privilege and a passion. This is the TA LBO T perspective! For information write: REGISTRAR TALBOT THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY 13800 Biota Ave., La Mirada, Calif. 90638 Offering B.D., T h .M and M.R.E. Degrees CHARLES L.
