Few relationships are as im­portant in God's cause as teamwork. Before Pentecost the disciples were only a group; after Pentecost they were a team. Then they turned the world upside down. What built them into a team was first their relationship to God and then to one another. It was the team spirit in the apostolic church that made that church invincible.

"Ye Visited Me"

Myrle Tabler, R.N.

Sickness, to many, is a deep river, the farther shore of which may not always be discernible to those who flounder in the depths. The real serv­ice is not only to help the sufferer to keep his head above water but to gain the larger view­point.

On Being a Preacher

Carlyle B. Haynes

Two ways are open before you, and I would have you look at and consider both. You can be a beggar, a huckster, an auctioneer —or you can be a preacher. The great need of this cause is preachers. God help you to be a preacher!

Review of Basic Principles in Approaching Non-Adventists: PART II—The Right Approach

Arnold Kurtz

In the story of the Transfiguration the climaxing sentence reads, "And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only." Those two words, "Jesus only," provide the answer. Those two words are symbolic of the spirit that actuated the early church, and are a prophetic symbol of the spirit of the last-day church.

Jesus and the Trinity

Otto H. Christensen

No doubt in recent years many of our workers have had to deal with the question of Jesus, His origin, and His relation to the other members of the Godhead. Often over-enthusiastic and misled reli­gious workers going from house to house have succeeded in confus­ing the minds of truehearted and truth-seeking people, and reviving portions at least of the early Arian controversy. It was to answer this challenge that many years ago I began a study of this question...

The Basis of Christian Belief

F. G. Clifford

In his book The Truth About Seventh-day Adventism Walter R. Martin takes issue with us regarding our insistence on observing the seventh day of the week as the Sabbath. In seeking to de­stroy the evidence upon which Seventh-day Adventists rest their case for the seventh day, Mr. Martin reveals an at­titude and type of reasoning that is indeed strange.

Supply and Demand

G. D. King

THE economic law of supply and demand has its byplay in the great program of denominational service. Administrators constantly are faced with the pressure that comes from the great outreach of Christian missions, which is now taking new forms, being conditioned by the modern factors that are having a great effect on the life of the world, particularly in Africa.
