THE LIGHT TDWER JOSEPH E. RAMSEYER Presidenf Bible Lecfures The Challenge for The Harvest ln Maffhew nine, we read: When he saw fhe mulfifudes . . . fainfed and scaf- feredf'-He said unfo His disciples, The harvesf fruly is plenfeousf' Luke has if: The harvesf fruly is greaff' I wanf fo menfion fhree of fhe greaf fhings in fhis significanf ufferance of our Lord Jesus Chrisf: Firsf: The Greafness of fhe l.ord's harvesf field. No land, no race, no individual is oufside of fhe scope of His field. ln fhe house of Cornelius, fhe aposfle Pefer voiced fhis greaf frufh in fhe following language: Cf a frufh I perceive fhaf God is no re- specfer of persons: buf in every nafion he fhaf fearefh Him, and workefh righfeousness is accepfed of Him. Second: The Greafness of fhe need-or fhe presenf sfafus of fhe harvesf. Alfhough considerable has been done in fhe pasf cenfury by many missionary sociefies, and precious fruif has been gafhered, much more golden grain has perished fhan has been garnered during fhe same period. Moreover, fhe populafion in unevangelized lands has sfeadily increased so fhaf fhere are more heafhen foday fhan ever before in human hisfory. Third: The Greafness of our l.ord's compassion. He says: For fhe Son of man is come fo seek and fo save fhaf which was losf. And, again we hear Him say, Ofher sheep I have . . . fhem also l musf bring. His greaf hearf of undying love is reaching ouf for fhe millions in fhe hearf of Africa, in fhe inferior of India, China, Soufh America, and fhe ofher secfions of His field as much foday as if did for fhe mulfifudes fhaf were before Him when He said, Truly fhe harvesf is greaff' His mafchless love for fhe perishing has nof abafed. The appeal for help will grip us all fhe more when we consider fhe awful facf fhaf fhe heafhen living now musf hear fhe message in fheir day, or fheir opporfunify is forever gone. O how much golden grain is losf every day! Truly fhe harvesf is plenfeousf' I 3
