CHALLENGE OF THE LOST Chinese Idol Come! ' Tarry!” ll Go!” These are the three great verbs of the Gospel. They are in the imperative mood and are to be obeyed by loyal Christians everywhere. Come to Christ. Tarry to learn of Him. Go, tell others of the Saviour of the world. COME.” Christ gives the invitation to all who have not yet made Him the Christ of their souls. ' TARRY.” The disciples of Christ tarried with Him. that He might prepare them for their work. One must surely be a learner ere he may become a teacher. Communion is the predecessor of communication. GO.” Oh, it is a sad fact that this last named verb from the Saviour ' s lips has been slowly heeded by Christians. The burdens of the lost are not only grievous to be borne, but the ultimatum is death. The Lord is saying to us, Do you know the disease? Oh, yes. Lord, I do, Go, then, and tell them these two things—the disease and the cure. It is this apostolic sense that has moved our missionaries to the task. They have heard the command Go!” Preach! They do not feel that they must live or that they must come back. They most certainly know that they must go, and must preach the Gospel to the unsaved.

We leave it to our readers to judge whether or not the adherents of these religions can be saved without the Gospel. The photographs are of graduates who have gone to the field in the past year.
