Biblical preaching in its various forms has always had something to do directly or indirectly with good news from God to men. The oral communication of the divine promises and commandments from father to children was a universal and obligatory duty in both pa­triarchal and Levitical times. In the days of the prophets God's messages were frequently received directly from God and transmitted to the people viva voce.

The tale of two churches

Andrew Fearing

It may seem strange that the simple act of personal contact in the home would make such a great difference in the over-all record of a church. The importance of pastoral visitation should not be overlooked.

Jesus and the Trinity

Otto H. Christensen

Much confusion and misconception concerning Jesus has come about by a misapplication of the title Yahweh, applying it only to the Father, as though He were the one Being quali­fying as God. However, in ex­amining the more than 6,000 Scripture texts, it be­comes evident that the Being ordinarily re­ferred to by that title is sometimes Jesus.

The Short Evangelistic Campaign

W. R. Holley

I am a strong believer in short-campaign evange­lism. That does not mean I do not believe in long cam­paigns; it simply means that I am very much in favor of the short ones. I think they are our greatest tool in en­abling us to obtain decisions.

An Evangelistic Field School at Emmanuel Missionary College

Bruce Johnston

Preacher, Watch Your Weight!

Our reference in the title is not to physical weight but to that kind of "weight" known as influence. The power of the minister's influence cannot be overestimated.

"Still, Still With Thee"

Edward Earl Cleveland

It is no mere coincidence that the com­mand to preach was accompanied by the promise, "Lo, I am with you." With Christ all things are possible; without Him, nothing.

The Hour of God's Judgment Is Come: Concluded

Edward Heppenstall

The Adventist interpreta­ion of the judgment of Revelation 14:7 has empha­sized in particular that phase known as the investigative judgment of the saints. But does the hour of God's judg­ment have yet a wider scope? Does the period beginning in 1844 have universal significance in terms of judg­ment? What does God mean by it? Exactly what is embraced in this judgment? Is it concerned only with the saints and nothing more?
