Godjin Education 'fBuild me straight, O worthy Master! Staunch and strong, a goodly vessel, That shall laugh at all disaster, And with wave and whirlwind wrestle l II Timothy 2:15 says: 4'Study to show thyself approved, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth. The writer of this admonition was a man of good education. He was so well educated that he could adapt himself to the personality and the circumstances of his hearers and yet help to uplift them. He caught men, it were, with guile, understanding them so well that he could turn their idol worship into the worship of the true God by telling them that he had come to tell them of the unknown God whom they already worshipped. He was able to admonish and strengthen those who were converted under his preaching, and to get them organized and working together. Isaiah says: t'The Lord gave me the tongue of the learned, that I should speak a word in season to him that is wearyu. One who is really edu- cated is humble enough to let God speak through him the correct message for the hearer. Acts 7: 22 informs us that Moses was well learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was mighty in works and deeds. He was so well learned and so full of God that he met Pharaoh on his own ground and led the Children. of Israel out of Egypt's bondage, through the Red Sea, through serious diffi- culties, into liberty over their oppression. Glory to God! The Lord trusted him farther. He gave to the World, through him, the Old Testament laws. One may well ask: How may we get this education? How may we be a workman that needeth not to be ashamed? We shall be glad to answer that we can lay a very substantial foundation in the Grades. A skilled craftsman must first have knowledge of his tools. Many a splendid worker has been handicapped and in a measure defeated because he did not know how to read. Because he Ucould not rightly divide the word of truth, many of his hearers were not able to get the proper meaning. 'What was the effect on himself? He could not get the proper meaning so he could pass it on to others. We must know our English well if we wish to properly interpret the Word. A thorough knowledge of History gives us an idea of what God has accomplished and His judgments on nations that forget God . A knowledge of geography gives us an idea of what to expect from the different lands, what their needs are and why they live as they do. And so on down through the list of subjects. The Grade subjects should give us a solid foundation on which to build the structure of the knowledge we shall acquire in the higher departments. The knowledge we acquire in the higher departments should add to Olll' efficiency as soul winners. As efficient workers we may help get many souls ready for the coming of our Lord. -Clara Buntain -72--
