The Editor in Imagination Interviews Ellen G. WhiteEvangelicals in Critical Discussion With WCC
Bert B. Beach
IT IS A FACT of recent church history that the churches controlled by conservative evangelicals have generally not joined the World Council of Churches. This abstention is because they do not believe that the WCC legitimately represents the church's given unity in Christ. Furthermore, they have serious reservations regarding the deployment of the limited energies and means of the WCC and the churches it represents in dubious and, at times, divisive socio-political activities. . .

THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH speaks. It speaks of the seventh day, Saturday, as the Sabbath. It speaks in its community by the open door of the church, the groups in the entry or court yard; it speaks through sound, color, and movement; it speaks when others are busy shopping, conducting business, or the like. . .

THIS AGE has been called the Age of Aquarius, but it might also be labeled as the Age of the Anonymous. Society has demanded new systems of labeling of foods, drugs, clothing; in fact, almost everything one buys. Why? The answer lies in the anonymous marketing of almost everything. A natural suspicion has arisen. It has been proved to be justifiable time and again. . .

June Loor
"THERE IS a special work to be done for our young people by those bearing responsibilities in local churches throughout the conferences." --Testimonies, vol. 9, p. 77. What a tremendous challenge this presents before us all. The devil bids high for the souls of young people because if he can steal them away from the church he has destroyed a lifetime of service for Christ. . .

L. R. Van Dolson
NEARLY TWO HUNDRED years after Jonah's spectacular revival campaign at Nineveh, the ax of judgment fell on the stiff neck of the rebellious Assyrians. The cob webs of evil habit finally became strong cables that bound them so firmly to wrongdoing that God could do no more for them. There fore, they were left to drain the cup of divine wrath. . .

Lawrence T. Geraty
EACH YEAR The Ministry provides its readers with a brief review of the most recent books in the field of Biblical archeology, history, and geography. The last such review appeared in the March, 1974, issue but covered only those books published in 1972. This review covers significant works published in the two years since that time during 1973 and 1974. . .

Caffeine is a tasteless substance and a natural constituent of a number of plants including coffee, tea, kola nuts, and mate. Caffeine is also found in products made from these plants, such as cola and pepper-type drinks. . .

THE AUDITORIUM was spotless and clean. Three hundred metal folding chairs were arranged in rows of twelve across the room. The speaker's stand was occupying its position of prominence and dignity at the center of the stage. The clock on the wall pointed to ten minutes of eight. . .

LIFE BEGINS with a single cell that, when fertilized, begins to divide and redivide. The chromatin in the cell is the substance of heredity. This is the material from which genes and chromosomes are made. Each chromosome contains thousands of genes that are systematically distributed within the chromosomes, each gene being a control element of a specific characteristic. . .

William M. Overn
THIS ARTICLE attempts to remove some of the mystery about entropy and the second law of thermodynamics, so that the lay man may understand how this law legislates against evolution. It also legislates against man's making perfect use of his energy supply, and has a great deal to say about the orderly decay and degeneration of living substances. . .

THE AIR had a brilliant clarity that cold Friday morning last March as I stepped out of the house. I was still not feeling well after a week's siege with the flu and I shivered despite my heavy wool pants suit, coat and scarf. . .

Donna J. Habenicht
PRESENT use of the word counselor generally involves a relationship between two people in which one of them is endeavoring to help the other to understand and find his way through adjustment problems. Dictionary definitions generally stress advice-giving and mental-exchange ideas. . .

Carl Coffman
THE ACT of praying in public is quite an awesome responsibility. The fact that we actually are permitted to enter into the presence of God as we privately engage in prayer fills our hearts with gratitude. But to seek the Creator of the universe on behalf of an entire congregation such seems almost presumptuous for a human being to undertake. . .
