Walter Schubert
The Scriptures say "God is love." Love is an attribute of God. He is the source of all love, and it is derived from Him.

I found the article "Close That Door!" The Ministry, August, 1961, especially challenging. The seven points on how to close the door were all good. However, I believe there are other viewpoints that should be considered on this very important problem.

Edward White
The New Testament question of three words, "Is any merry?" is answered by James himself in the words "let him sing psalms" (James 5:13). Singing psalms is indeed a good occupation, whether one is merry or sad, as the singing—with understanding—of psalms will lead the singer into a much deeper experience with God.

William T. Hyde
The atonement is the heart of the plan of salvation. A proper understanding of its meaning is necessary to a correct view of such important matters as the nature of God, the incarnation and work of our Lord, and the requirements for salvation. But the word itself has changed its meaning.

Here we are on the verge of eternity, and we stand with pitifully small evangelistic budgets while we face soaring costs to maintain the overhead and understandable demands for additional physical facilities.

Howard B. Weeks
The public relations program of our denomination is now a well-seasoned fifty years old! Often thought to be one of the new departments, the public relations work will observe its golden anniversary in 1962.

Robert H. Pierson
How important for us to ever bear in mind that regardless of what flag or race we may represent we are first Christians. As followers of the Lord Jesus Christ there must be confidence among us.

F. L. Peterson
Christ was about to leave this world, and He knew the dangers to which His disciples would be exposed. The work that He had done was to be carried on by His followers, and so He prays to the Father for them. He prays that their joy may not decrease as they approach the time of His departure.

One of the greatest needs in all history has been leaders. When God wanted something done He called and depended upon leaders.
