Ambassadors of Freedom
Is it possible that the priceless freedoms of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries have died or are dying out of the hearts of a race that has so marvelously benefited by them?
Science and Religious Faith—Part I
Dr. Marsh gave a series of three chapel talks during the first half of the summer session of 1958 at Potomac University. The students at the university wished to have them in some permanent form, and it was felt that our workers in the field would also appreciate them. Therefore, rather than being mimeographed for a limited group, they are being made available through THE MINISTRY. This is the first of six articles that will bring this series to our readers.—Editors
Ideas on the Atonement Contrasted
This and the concluding article next month were presented first at the Theological Seminary and subsequently before several groups of ministers, and is being published in response to many urgent requests.—Editors.
Who Gets to Go?
This challenging article of Dr. Jacob Janzen's "Who Gets to Go?" was written primarily for the alumni of the College of Medical Evangelists (CME Alumni Journal, May, 1958), but as you read you will find it also has a message and emphasis for ministers and church administrators.

Longacre was so well known to our workers around the world that we felt we could well share this with our readers. This service was in many ways a model of sympathy, dignity, and beauty. Among those who took part in this service were C. J. Coon, retired president of the Potomac Conference, who read the obituary; R. R. Figuhr, General Conference president, who preached the sermon; and J. A. Buckwalter, secretary of the General Conference Religious Liberty Association, who offered the prayer.—Editors

Missionary Contacts at Washington Sanitarium
NOTE.—Seventh-day Adventist health institutions have been raised up by divine instruction. Their purpose is to proclaim the message of God's saving grace while using the treatment of diseases as an "entering wedge." Health reform is the "right arm" of the message. We herewith publish a section of the chaplain's report presented at a recent biennial session. In a very practical way this report reveals the wonderful providences in the sanitariums' mission. God's challenge to all who work in these God-appointed health institutions is to meet His purpose for their existence.—EDITORS
