VN FORWARD Soldiers of the Cross march forward to battle beneath the shadow of their banner e The Cross. The message of the Cross e that which brings peace to a weary heart and to this war-torn world e is interwoven throughout the pages of this book. It is eSsential that every soldier put on the Whole Armour of God as he goes forth to battle. The topics of the sectional divisions are illustrative of this truth of Christian combat. Every phase of school life is vividly portrayed in our 1944 yearbook - The Archive. a7 ff SOLDIER: Wherefore take unto you the whole ARMOUR of God. that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day.

Out C hristian life is much more a warfare, for we struggle against the powers and forces of evil. Therefore, as Sol- diers of the Cross of Jesus Christ, we must fit ourselves for opposition with the enemy. God wants well-armed soldiers. iiPut on the whole armour is His command, and complete obedience is required. It is not enough to equip ourselves with half of the armour or even I the greater part of it. All the armourethe breastplate of righteousness, feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit is essential. No part can be omitted. Our Divine Commander has made provi- sion for a weIl-equipped army. Our duty is not to choose which part we prefereit is for us to obey. The well-armed Christian is wearing the armour of God. The Almighty prepares it and be- stows it. If we were to wear ourown grmour, defeat would be. certain. Such weapons would be weak with human failings, improper with lack of foresight, and incomplete because of human limita- tions, but the armour of God is sure. It can never fail. In the trying time it shall withstand every assault from . the enemy of our souls. God equips His warriors for a pur- pose; namely, ibThat ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Our enemy is not only subtle, having a thousand ways to beguile the unstable soldier, but is a powerful ruler of spiritual darkness. Thus, it becomes our duty to put on the whole armour of God and to stand in com- bat against wickedness, having con- fidence in God who giueth us the vic-- tory through our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. REV. F. I. LINDQUIST Men of vision are priceless jewels for which God is searching. The fulfillment . of God's program necessitates the em- ployment of the Wise and willing heart- ed who recognize the need and en- deavor to assist. Our President, Rev. Frank I. Lindquist, possesses this qual- ity. Rev. Lindquist is responsible for the inception and continuous growth of our beloved Institute. Many years ago, he recognized the vital necessity of a min- isterial training school, from Which God could send forth consecrated and intelli- gent laborers. His determination, initio- tive, and prudence are invaluable assets to N. C. B. I. He teaches Doctrine, Divine Healing, Pneumatics and Parliamentary Low, in addition to being Pastor of the Minnea- polis Gospel Tabernacle, and Super- intendent of the North Central District. FROM OUR PRESIDEN T Soldiers of the Cross are in the army of the Lord, which is led by our ever conquering Captoin-Jesus Christ, who has never lost or bottle. The weapons of their warfare are not carnal, but spiritual, and powerful through God, to pull down the strongholds of Satan. Our bottles are won by, What seems in the natural to be foolish means; such as, the marching around Jericho, and the shout of Faith. The arm of flesh cannot comprehend such things as Prayer and Praise. We have on host of Allies, unseen, yet real. They helped Elisha at Dothan, opened prison doors for Peter, slew 185,000 men in one night, and delivered Hezekiah. Since God's Hosts ore for us, they are more than all that can be against us. The cause of Christ is just and righteous, and shall ultimately triumph. Old Veterans of the Cross fall on the field of Battle, but new recruits take their places in the ranks and stand in the gap. Soldiers of the Cross, endure hardness, fight the good fight of faith, never retreat- Be thou faithful unto death, and Christ shall give thee the Crown of Life. REV. I. o. MILLER God has always coveted willing men of sturdy character upon Whom He could place the responsibilities of Christian leadership. Our Dean, Rev. .Ivcm 0. Miller, is such a man. Rev. Miller's spiritual guidance and wise counsel will be a cherished memory of every student. His conse- cration and life are an incentive to all who meet him. He is CI very capable instructor, teaching Epistles, Hermeneu- tics and Dispensations. Rev; Miller is pastor of the St. Paul Gospel Temple and Assistant Superintendent of the North Central District. We are grateful to God for Rev. Miller's ministry and life. FROM OUR DEAN American soldiers, English soldiers, Chinese soldierseFamiIiar words on the lips of people of all nations. God bless them. We write just now, however, of soldiers of the Cross. A soldier is emphati- cally, a brave, consecrated, skillful, or experienced warrior. One who fights courageously for what he believes to be right, Willing to die, if necessary, to perpetuate the ideals dear to his heart, even though it is others, not he, that live to enjoy them. Paul exhorts Timothy to be a good soldier of Iesus Christ. The Greek word used here is tKalosi meaning valuable, virtuous, honest, worthy, purposeful, excellent, merciful, kind, courteous and loving. To emphasizeeea valuable soldier, a virtuous soldier, an honest soldier, Ct kind soldier, a loving soldier, etc. The 1944 Senior Class of N . C. B. I. has chosen as their class name Soldiers of the Cross. May God give them the grace and consecration to be the thzlesi soldiers of today. BOARD OF DIRECTORS Rev. Frank I. Lindquil! Rev. Ivan 0. Miller Rev. Bartlett Peterson Rev. Ralph M. Riggs Rev. E. E. Kroqstad Rev. Russell- H, 01.93 ROY. Frank R. Goltwald Rev. C. O. Swanson Rev. B. C. Heine Rev. Dexter E. Collins Rev. R. D; E. Smith Men of leadership are an indispensable quantity in' the promulgation and direction of the Church. Christ commissioned the apostles to con- tinue the noble work which He commenced. Today God has given us such men of character. The zeal and devotion of the Board of Directors are responsible for the progress of our Institute. MRS. ANNA F. MAGNUSON An inner possession of Christ will always be confirmed by the radiance of true Christian character. Iesus said, If ye have love one toward another, then are ye my disciples indeed. Our Dean of Women, Mrs. Anna F. Magnu- son, radiates the charm and sweetness of our risen Lord. Her self-sacrificing love and thoughtfulness have endeared her to every student's heart. Mrs. Maqnuson supervises the em- ployment and social activities of the women students. Her ministry is that of rendering spiritual assistance and wise 'counsel to every student. She imparts new courage and determination to the. despondent and discouraged. The student body deeply appreciates this God-qiven life and ministry. She very efficiently conducts the Etiquette classes. FROM OUR DEAN OF WOMEN As Soldiers of the Cross, we must be faithful. Whether you are called to be a Sunday School teacher, a pastor, an evangelist, a missionary, or a Gospel worker, or may your mission in life be great or Small, remember to be faithful. ' Each one of you is called to fill some particular place in life, and no other person can fill your position as well as you. Find your place in God's plan and purpose and be steadfast and true. Whatsoever ye do, do it heartily as unto the Lord. May you, as true Soldiers of the Cross, go forward, ever holding high the bloodstained banner. Remember God's promise, It is required among stewards that a man be found faithful. REV. RUSSELL H. OLSON The initiative and ingenuity of Rev. Russell H. Olson are invaluable assets to the student body of North Central Bible Institute. Rev. Olson is a very arden and enthusiastic pers onal worker. Fremont Tabernacle, Rev. Olson's fine new church in North Minneapolis, is the product of his patient and con- tinued endeavors. Despite his ministerial obligation, which is sufficient for any pastor, Rev. Olson teaches Christian Evidences, Homiletics, and Prophecy. REV. BARTLETT PETERSON We are very privileged to have Rev. Bartlett Peterson as a faculty member of our Institute. He accumulated an enormous reservoirs of practical. per- sonal experience while engaged in gos- pel endeavors, both as pastor and evangelist .Many class sessions have been richly colored by his sagacious counsel. He occupies the position of Field Sec- retary for the N orth Central District. Due to his relevancy to field problems, he is able to present the student body with the verities of ministerial problems. Rev. Peterson very competently con- ducts the Senior class in Pastoral The- ology. REV. EMIL BALLIET When class sessions conclude and we face the sober and grim realities of the gospel ministry, we will instinctively remember Rev. Emil Balliet's joyous and happy disposition. Many a downcctst student has received new joy and de- termination through an observation of Rev. Balliet's constant cheerfulness. We thank God for the inspiring life and tes- timony of Rev. Balliet. Rev. Balliet is the Choir director and assistant pastor of the Minneapolis Gos- pel Tabernacle. As q faculty member. he teaches New Testament, Music, Ef- fective Speaking and Typology. REV. HERBERT R. SNYDER Today's civilization reckons its pros- perity in terms of financial assets. Gos- pel endeavors are inseparably at- tached to finances; they demand logical and systematic administration. This is the task of Bear. Herbert R. Snyder, treasurer of North Central Bible Insti- tute since its inception, and treasurer of the North Central District. He teaches History of World Missions and Penmanship. Rev. Snyder's consecrated and con- sistent Christian life is a benediction to all who make his acquaintance. REV. W. KATTER Personal Evangelism, the glorious privilege of every believer, is vividly portrayed by the life of Rev. WilsOn thter, Whose efforts have reaped many seuls. Rev. Katter emphasizes the value and importance of individual evangel- istic efforts. Rev. Katter is pastor of the new City of Lakes Chapel. As CI faculty member, Rev. Katter teaches Personal Evangelism, Sunday School Methods, and Practical Work. REV. DONALD EDSON The inspirational and zealous Char- acteristics of Rev. Donald Edson are an incentive to all who make his acquaint- ance. Rev. Edson's daily walk is that of diligent and incessant toil tor the Mas- ter. His ferver, enthusiasm, and zeal are the essential qualities which make him an influential instructor. He is the State President of the Christ's Ambassadors. Rev. EdsOn pastors the Christian Church, in addition to teaching Church History, Old Testament, Polemics and Secretarial Accounting. MW W um: um ll? MR. MARK I. BELL The world's present educational standards demand that the clergy pos- sess a corresponding educational sta- tus. A forceful presentation of the gospel message necessitates the ability to speak and write correctly and intelli- gently. Thorough knowledge of English usage is received in the classes instruct- ed by Mr. Mark I. Bell. Besides teaching typing in the Chris- tian Education Course, Mr. Bell is also a very capable pianist, specializing in the teaching of Evangelistic style play- inq. Mr. Bell's practical life and personal interest in the spiritual welfare of the students has been an incentive to deep- er spirituality. MISS SHIRLEY YOUNGLUND Every student has experienced the thrill of sending his application to the Registrar's office. Their applications are promptly and competently considered by Miss Shirley Younglund, the Reg- istrar of N. C. B. I. Students are privileged to pursue either CI thorough Ministerial Prepara- tory Course or C1 Christian Education Course, in which they may study vital business subjects. In addition to her duties as Registrar, Miss Younqlund teaches Shorthand in the Christian Education Course. WW M7 MMMGP MR. R. L. KATTER Credit Manager IRENE HANSON Secretary MIAMI HF MR.

However, every organization must have rules, and 0 school of training for Ministerial and Christian Education can be no exception. An extensive effort is being constantly maintained to improve the method of student discipline. The Student Council plays an important role in this division of school life. Elected by popular vote and approved by the faculty, four students from each class assume their position in this council body. Daily contact with the fellow students and the weekly report system are conducive to a sympathetic and effectual way of dealing with problems that are certain to arise. At the regular weekly meetings, there is discussion and prayer to find the mind of God in school activities and discipline. In this manner the Student Council is a forcible factor assisting the Faculty in their effortstto direct the student body in the way of. righteousness before God. MEMBERS Pres.

The devil would assail the mind with doubts, unbelief, despair, and keep us from trusting in God. He would aim arrows of questions at the believetis faith in God. If we should weaken in one point-loose faith in the miraculous, question the efficacy of the blood, or doubt His soon coming-the enemy would win a great victory. However, we shall find security in the helmet of salvation. It shall resist the fiery darts of the enemy. Salvation is the hope that will keep from despair and discouragement. Outside of salvation, there is no hope. In this wondrous gift is found manls only hope, his only security for the present and for the future. This is the helmet that keeps us trusting in God, and rejoicing in -Him. The soldier whose mind is wavering is of no value to the Lord. His soldiers must be strong in their faith. They must not be swayed by eyery new teaching and doctrine. Their minds must be fixed upon Him. Their duty is to know what they believe and why they believe it. God has warned against false prophets and teachers in the last days, that shall cause many to depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of dev- ils. Yet, for the Soldier of the Cross there need be no fear. He shall not doubt or question. He shall not de- part from the faith. Clad in the hel- met of salvation he is protected from all danger of onslaughts of the enemy. Just as the soldiers head is guarded by his helmet, so is the Christianls faith perfected, his wavering mind established, and his faint heart enr couraged by salvation. JOHN XLLXPPS Minneapd .

I tssole pur- pose was to protect the upper por- tions of the body, wherein lie the vital organs of life. There is a very fitting parallel advanced in the Scripture, when it speaks of the breastplate of righteousness? Paul, the brave Soldier of the Cross, depicts righteousness as being a breastplate for every Christian warrior. He lays stress upon the necessity of this article of battle attire, for it gives protection to the very source of life. The comparison is very fitting, because righteousness in daily life will keep the believer safe from all the assaults of the enemy. Though Satan may unceasingly attempt to overwhelm our personal life and testimony, we can constantly main- tain our standard if we are clothed with righteousness. Radiancy of Christian testimony will inevitably be lessened should the warrior fail to keep upon himself the breastplate of tight- eousness. The warriorls breastplate is not ac- quired, but bestowed; not merited, but given. Each warrior must live a life of such integrity that it will please the Captain of his salvation to give unto him His own righteousness. In the daily environment, the warrior is faced with a multitude of subtle enemy schemes; these he must resist, and continue to fight. The enemy has many deceptive allutements through which he hopes to cause the warrior to relax his vigilance and earnestness. Your will is the deciding factor in the outcome of the Christian conflict. You shall succeed, if you will to do so. Daniel 11:32. But the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. Every available method is today being used to train soldiers at home in a manner that Will equip them for the time of actual battle. During maneu- vers, verbal commands may be feasible and of profit, but When the enemy is a reality, and the din of battle a deafening terror, more forceful methods The trumpeters stand waiting; their horns are raised into position, and With the sound of trumpet calls, we introduce to you the Music Department of N.C.B.I. HJVIUU$UNE must be applied. A11 confusion and fear vanishes T from the mind of the soldier when suddenly the clear, piercing tones of the trumpet denote a for- Ward march into battle and an ultimate victory. In the training of the Lord's army, music occupies an equally important place. Sacred gospel hymns are mighty weapons to bring conviction to the un- godly and inspire anew the child of God. The Soldier of the Cross has c1 song in the midst of battle, as well as on parade, for his is 0: Com- mander who giveth songs in the night. The Music Department of North Central Bible Institute is the training course that teaches its warri- ors efficiency in wielding the Weapons of song. Under the supervision of Rev. Emil A. Balliet, Music Director, raw recruits are transformed into capable Soldiers of Song. As we jour-ney on t'ward Heav-en,s shin-ing goal GLADYS BALLIET L. JOHNSON M. MENZIE The trumpets play the DRILL CALL. It is CI call to drill on the piano. Special emphasis has been placed upon piano instruction this year, and as a result, a greater number than ever have be- come interested in learning to play the piano. Students are assigned practice hours in the new piano rooms. Mrs. Gladys Balliet, who previously taught in a Music Conservatory at San Fran- sisco, California, is instructor of be- ginning and advanced Classical music with keyboard harmony. Mr. Mark I. Bell teaches evangelistic method of playing gospel hymns. Due to the many applications for piano lessons, it became necessary to employ the services of two student teachers, Leone Johnson and Marian Menzie.

His pleasant smile and perpetual cheer- fulness combine to make the machinery of this department function smoothly. Rev. Balliet skillfully fills his office as instructor of choir, chorus, band, voice, violin, and harmony, as well as the rudiments of music. REV. EMIL BALLIET THE GIRLS CHORUS is composed of fifteen voices selected from the three classes. This group WCIS featured at the Commencement program, M A P Q singing The Lord's Prayer. 15 XVQX v F; P, The trumpets sound the CALL TO ATTENTION, and we give our attention to these smaller musical units Who have devel- oped their vocal talents. They have found opportunities for playing and singing in various churches throughout the Twin liv - ing in the shad - ow of the Cross The trumpets play REVEILLE. A- wake, my soul, and sing of Him who died for thee, is the song of the choir. Members of this vocal group have been active throughout the year, furnishing the choral music each Sunday night at the Minneapo- lis Gospel Tabernacle and the Fremont Gospel Tabernacle. The above picture is a representative group of the many voices that participate. On the Commencement program, the choir presented The Hallelujah , Chorus, from Handel's Messiah, and King All Glorious, by George Vail. Sav - iour took your place? Again the CALL TO ATTEN- TION is sounded. Everyone maintains silence and stands at attention as we listen to these instrumentalists. Some very ex- cellent work has been done by the chapel pianists, the trom- bone quartet, and the horn solo- ists. This experience will prove invaluable to the students in their future ministry. By the cross He,ll lead us to that home above The trumpets sound the CALL TO THE COLORS, and the N. C. B. I. band plays under the direction of Brother Balliet. This group has been active in the morning chapel services, as well as in the Sunday afternoon chapel meetings. In addition to school activities, the band has been featured at several Minneapolis churches during the past year. There is an open door every- where for these skilled musicians who are engaged in playing for God's glory. The highlight of the year's band activities is the Commencement pro- gram during Which the band presents several sacred selections. There We'll see Him face to face.

SHIELD OF FAITH The history of the shield dates back to the very earliest of all civilizations, for this piece of armor is a vital neces- sity to the contender. When fiercely oppressed by the enemy, the warrior takes refuge behind his shield. The Scripture gives every Christian warrior just such a de- fense for we take the shield of faith wherewith we are enabled to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked? A shield was used for personal defense when engaged in conflict; likewise the Word gives every warrior that same essential protection. The adversary of our soul oft comes with his most subtle weapon, unbelief; therefore, we take the shield of faith and advance on to victory in spite of fierce opposition. The shield of faith will never allow its owner to suffer personal loss or injury. Faith has never known, and never shall know ignominious defeat; its very - essence makes this an impossibility. The shield of faith implies that each individual warrior has implicit faith in the promises and integrity of his Leader. When the shield of faith is used, the warrior acknowledges his own personal insuf- ficiency and weakness, while he claims triumph through his Leaderls merits. It implies submission, for the war- rior merely acquiesces to the orders of his Superior. Very emphatically the Scripture de- clares the shield of faith to be of su- preme importance in acquiring vic- tory, for we read rlThis is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faithf' Oh, warrior, weak in faith, now take to thyself this weapon, for you cannot win without it! Did not Jesus, our Leader, exhort us to have faith in God'? BERNARD ALLEN President of the IUNIOR .

GO INTO ALL THE WORLD N ever has so great a commission been given to any group of saints, as was given by our Lord Jesus, when He said, Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. This commahd is unparalleled in its scope, demanding the utmost of Christian missionary endeavor. The responsibility of propagating the Gospel is shared by all believers. Each mem- ber of the body of Christ is personally charged with the fulfillment of this commission. We constitute the mighty army of righteousness to whom this commission was entrusted. As individual members of this army we are exhorted Tlto endure hardness as good soldiers of Jesus Christ. It is our glorious privilege to participate in this conflict for righteousness. We wage a spiritual warfare, for we read, lee wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against priniripalities, powers, the rulers of the darkness of this world and spiritual wickedness in high places. We are 'all volunteers, wholly consecrated to the task of 'steaa'fastly defending the Cross of Christ. Our glorious leader, Jesus Christ-e the Captain of our Salvation, bears in His body the marks of the conflict. The knowledge of His continued pres- ence is our constant comfort and en- couragement, for H e has promised, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee? We have a definite assurance of victory for the battle is not ours, but the Lordlsfl Thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christfl Thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ? CARL MCCONNELL President HELEN BLOOD S ecretary - Treasurer WMQWWWHW t MMMMM AW World evangelizcttion is the supreme duty of the Church. Christ's command commences to materialize when the individual believer recognizes the integral nature of his own Christian endeavors. . An illuminated. mind which appreciates spiritual values is the best vehicle which God can secure. The challenge and need of world missions are vividly presented to the student body through the various missionary prayer bands. As a result of these endeavors, many brave soldiers of the cross have ven- tured forth to serve on foreign soil. The leadership of the Missionary Department is under the direction of Rev. W. A. Katter, faculty advisor; Carl McConnell, president; and Helen Blood, secretary-treasurer. ijngiQf ie PRESIDENT ........... DUANE HURST VICEPRESIDENT - . CHARLES LAMSON SECRETARY ......... MARY BREWER TREASURER ...... WANDA BELVILLE x e HOMELAND World civilization has often been threatened with destruction. Today the Axis powers are the major threat to world security. Whether or not we face disaster will be determined by our response to the present crisis. The Gospel of Christ can solve this conundrum. We cannot deny the fact that our land is ser- iously threatened by external forces; however, our internal corruption is the real cause for anxiety. Our national crisis of today is the inevitable re- sult of humanity's alienation from God. Every try- ing ordeal is directly attributable to sin. The des- tiny of humanity has been beset by sineour arch enemy. Our enthronement of imperialism and economic greed will cause us to forfeit the priceless blessing of the Almighty. God will abund- antly prosper America When she contritely acknowledges her folly and forsakes the paths of iniquity. America, take heed to thy ways! A call to repentance has always preceeded divine judgment. Christians, proclaim now the Gospel of grace, 'ere the storm breaks upon America! SOUTH AMERICA The Good Neighbor Policy has enlarged the Americans vision of South America; a land of peoples similar to us, but not so privileged. Present transportation facilities and economic treaties are removing many nationalistic bar- riers, and thereby presenting cm unexcelied op- portunity for Gospel endeavors. Man is so constituted that he yearns to wor- ship and pay homage to some supreme person- age; therefore, religion is CI necessity. Various forms of ritual and dogma have been created by men' in vain attempts to supply their spiritual needs. Many earnest and sincere hearts have followed vain philosophies: this is the tragedy of South America. Deception is the most successful weapon of Satan. Jesus Christ is the essence and motivating power of true spiritual lifeeall else is deception. South America needs to cease worshipping the cross, and commence to worship the Christ of the Cross. The cross mag- nifies His death, the empty tomb His power. South America needs the resurrected Christ. We are Witnesses of the regenerative transforming power of the Cross; therefore, let us proclaim this message to all. PRESIDENT .......... FRED FLESSING VICEPRESIDENT ....... ORILL KRANS SECRETARY .............. RUTH SLY TREASURER ....... CORA THOMPSON mama? PRESIDENT ........... JOHN PHILLIPS SECRETARY ........... HELEN VOLTS - ABRAHAM SOLOMON PALESTINE Palestine today occupies c1 place of prominence , due to the nature of her people, for they are the t chosen of God. The whole world anxiously i watches every movement of the Jew. This is , fulfilled prophecy. Though Palestine was the cradle of Christianity, it symbolizes the tragedy which befalls those who reject the Light. The cries which they uttered at the cross of Christ, have literally been fulfilled. Blindness now has come upon Israel; we are obligated to assist them. Even . . though Mohammedanism and Orthodox Jewry are predominant, the present missionary endeavors have been an encouraging success. Many of Abraham's children are now receiving the benefits of the blessing which was promised to Abraham. God has not forgotten His chosen people, but is now beginning a restoration of both national and spiritual Israel. We are witnessing one of the world's greatest miraclesethe re-appear- once of Israel. Throughout the ages of time, God has always desired workmen to do His bidding. We are among those who are privileged to shore in this great undertaking. MEXICO Mexico is often regarded as a dreamy land, Whose inhabitants thrill to the din of the bullfight and the shout of the picador. The typical Mexican rallies at the shout at merriment. All the world unanimously agrees that mirth is an indispensable quantity in the human life. Sin's shackles are tenaciously binding Mexico, bringing to her all the delusion and despond- ency Which sin alone can create. Mexico is sat- urated With a variety of religious systems, which have proved themselves ineffective and mislead- ing. All the creeds of human ingenuity Will en- gender bondage and despair. Only the risen Christ can emanci- pate and inepire the hearts of men. PRESIDENT ------- HARRY PETERSON Christ's message was that of joy, Which is the believer's con- stant portion. The enthronement of divine standards Will invariably result in the impartation of divine joy, despite the perplexing conundrums of life. The Gospel of Christ is the unparalleled proclamation of joy. This is Mexico's prospect! God's plan for world evangelization presupposed the obedience of all believers! Can God depend on you? SEC.-TREAS ......... EILEEN BUNGERT VICE-PRESIDENT - - CARL McCONNELL PRESIDENT ........... CLINTON PICK VICE-PRESIDENT - - EVELYN NEWMAN SEC.-TREAS ......... ILEEN ANDREWS CHINA AND JAPAN Our present world civilization is now at the cross roads of destiny. Before it are two paths, namely, divine benediction and divine anathema. The Orient presents the greatest missionary challenge of all the world; let us, therefore, proclaim the mes- sage of divine grace, that they may choose aright. China and Japan are now enveloped in the night of human tradition and philosophy. These ethical codes and standards of humanity Will always shackle their adherents. Multitudes of souls there are groping blindly; floundering in the dark valley of decision, as they endeavor to choose the right. In every age, God has summoned the world to make the decision concerning iniquity and righteousness. Knowledge is the prerequiSite of every decision. It is im- possible for the spiritually untauqht to comprehend the way to God. This is the predicament of China and Japan. Spiritual decisions necessitate CI previous reception of divine truth. It is the duty and privilege of the church to present the Gospel to .those Orientals who desire integrity of heart. Salvation was completed by Christ's sacrifice; world evangeli- zation demands your sacrifice. RUSSIA Russia is the great enigma of world events: her policies are shrouded with the dark shadows of the Kermlin. The true church in Russia has passed through persecution equal to that endured anywhere. Throughout world history, believers have often been challenged to prove their faith, even at the price of martyrdom. Daniel, Peter, and Paul are CI few heroes of faith who triumphed over the forces of persecution. Though Russia has severely persecuted the church, yet many souls have found the realities of Christianity. Rigid restrictions have made congregational services a Virtual impossibility. In spite of oppression, the Gospel has been propagated by indi- vidual believers. The Church will ever be triumphant: God has drdained it,- mom cannot undo it. The Church at Jerusalem grew rapidly When severely persecuted. Russia presents CI parallel situation. God's work shall never suffer defeat! God will give sufficient grace to His oppressed children. We are privileged to constantly bear these believers to the Throne of Grace. Have we assumed our responsibility? QEWM?! PRESIDENT ........ BERNARD ALLEN VICE-PRESIDENT - - .

' Africa, a land of heathen super- stition and Satanic domination, is now awaiting this glorious transformation. It was on this continent that much of the early Biblical history transpired; however, in spite of the manifestations of God, it is still the Dark Conti- nent. The vast majority of its inhabitants are en- veloped in the night of spiritual darkness Which covers all who have not seen the Light of the world. Their own attempts at religious reforma- tion are indicative of a deep spiritual yearning for the true Light, who alone is able to deliver them from the powers of darkness. How very true is the Master's declaration, I am the Light of the world; he that foiloweth Me shall not walk in darkness. It is this Christ whom Africa needs. We who have received this glorious light are not only privileged, but also commanded to bring unto such people the true Light. Let us arise and meet the challenge! PRESIDENT ............

VI 1 'F 2; V e.tvm INDIA India, with its many superstitious heathen rituals, presents a wonderful opportunity for Gospel evang- elizotion. Its present religious forms and philoso- phies are incapable of giving Life. Christ is the only source of life eternal. The primary need of India is CI comprehension of the glorious regenerating power of the Cross. Man's vain philosophies and human traditions have never yet caused the sin burden to vanish, the sorrowful to rejoice, the weak to become strong, or the discouraged to take heart, Human endeavors are insufficient because. they lack the true essence of spiritual power-Iesus Christ. In the Cross of Calvary there is emancipating power for every tettered servant of sin,, for the Gospel of Christ is the power of God unto salvation. Millions of India's natives are seeking for the true way, but how shall they believe in Him of Whom they have not heard? This is India's need. The presence of human substitutions ought to cause every believer to determine that all the world shall know the true way -Iesus Christ.

I., began a missionary tour February twentieth, flying from the United States to Mexico, Guatemala, and Nicaragua. He had the privilege of visiting our Graduate Missionaries, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Hollingsworth and Mr. and Mrs. David Kensinger. Rev. Lindquist found these countries to be lands of contrastewealth and poverty, educated and unlecaned-resulting in great differences in domestic and social life. Before any door of opportunity is opened to the presentation of the Gospel of Christ, a missionary must adapt himself to the natives' way of living. Heathen worship keeps the natives in utter darkness, but missionaries haVe the Go Ye command to take the Gospel light to these people, who are receptive to the Good News of Salvation. Our President has now returned to N . C. B. I. with several reels of color film portraying missionary activity in Central America. His interesting accounts of the trip have been an inspiration to further missionary endeavor among the student body.

The Scriptures give us a very striking parallel-the Word is the sword of the spirit. Judicial authority is symbolized by a sword. U nder the old monarchies and totalitarian gou- ernments, the ruler had a sword at his side as a symbol of legal and judicial authority. The potentateis word was law. Rain and disaster fell upon some because of his word, while others -were exalted to a place of prominence by his decree. The Word of God stands first as .the judicial standard in this world of men. Men's laws, deeds, and even the intents of their hearts will be judged by this same Word. For the Word of God is sharper than any two- edged sword. dividing soul and spirit, and discerns the intents of menbs hearts. Such is the power of the Word which we preach. M oreover, the sword has long been a symbol of power. High ranking mili- tary men of today carry with them a sword, thereby symbolizing the ag- gressive might of their forces. When a leader acknowledges his opponent's superiority and thus surrenders, he gives his sword to the victor as a token of departed Strength. The Sword of the Christian warrior is the Divine Word by which we are enabled to victoriously defeat every foe. Our sole purpose in attending Bible School is that of receiving instruction concerning the might and use of our Sword--the Word.

Traps have been laid by the enemy to obstruct the marching Christian, and make him fall. Should the adversary succeed in causing one to slip, that one would become a casualty, unfit for the march. Thus, provision has been made to protect our feet, enabling us to walk with a steady pace amid dangers and difficulties in the way. This protection is feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace. In the Gospel there is a firm footing, a solid foundation to defend from Satanis attempts to trip as. We rest our feet on the strong support of this truth. Heaven and earth may pass away, moun- tains may crumble, stars may fall, but this foundation cannot fail. It is a solid rock against which the devil can never prevail. The soldier who is shod with the Gospel has a certain foothoid that will enable him to walk with an unfaltering step amid the pitfalls that lie hid- den in the pathway. As it is the Gos- pel that insures a safe march, let us adhere to it and abide in it. This Gospel brings peace with God, ourselves, and with one another. The C hristian is the only man who knows real peace. There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked. For the un- righteous there is enmity with God, strife raging within himself, and dis- trust for one another. Not so with the child of God. There is perfect fellowship between him and his God. Sin and wickedness no longer weigh upon his conscience, robbing him of peace of mind. The Gospel has given him perfect peace. What a wonderful provision God has made for His sol- dierTs safety-J'Feet, shod with the preparation of the Gospel of Peace. The Practical Work Department is' one of the most essential features of our school curriculum because it provides the opportunity to' put ed- ucation to work. It has been said that experience is the best teacher, and in this department, every student studies under that teacher. We gain know- ledge by employing and using that which we have previously acquired. Among the many activities included in the Practical Work Department are Missions, Sunday School teaching, tract distribution, musical units, and weekend services. In these various capacities, the student body finds a ministry in Word and Song while attending School. The primary purpose of the Practical Work program is to reach lost souls With the light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The students do not conduct these services just because it is an assignment. They do not perform the duties of directing song service and speaking just to get a high grade. There is C: loftier motive behind the act. In every heart is a longing to be of service to our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Time is too short for delay. We cannot wait until our education is com- pleted to begin winning men for Christ. We are the light of the world and our responsibility is to let the light of our testimony shine forth into or sin-darkened world before it is too late. Today is the day of Salvation. l REV. W. A. KATTER Every Thursday morning finds Brother W. A. Katterl Director of Practical Work, in the chapel With a word of admonition and encouragement before the groups meet to plan their ser- vice of the week. Brother Katter's outstanding experiences in personal work and witnessing for Christ are C: real testimony and example to the student body. We are thankful for having just such a man at the head of the Practical Work Department. PRACTICAL WORK ACTIVITIES CHILD EVANGELISM Child Evangelism represents the rich- est harvest field of evangelistic possi- bilities that can be found in all Christian work. Young hearts that are tender constitute the best possible soil in which to sow the Gospel seed. During the summer months many of our students conduct Daily Vacation Bible Schools in Churches and school- houses, finding an evangelistic oppor- tunity second to none. The children are trained in the scriptures and many are won for Christ. This means not only the salvation of a soul, but the saving of a life. MISSIONS From the very beginning of the school year, the student body is organized into Practical Work groups which conduct services each week at various missions in the Twin Cities. Each semester, group leaders are appointed who arrange the program for the weekly services, en- deavoring to grant everyone an equal opportunity for training in regard to platform appearance. This method has proven to be an indispensable factor in the development of the students. It has been their great joy to see men and women seeking for salvation in many of these Mission services. IMWI The prime requisite for every gospel worker, whether they be minister, evangelist, or missionary, is that of a denial of self and service to others. A selt-centered life is incapable of recognizing humanity's needs. Christ's life is the acme of perfection, for He said, The Son of Man came not to be min- istered unto, but to minister. The Vicarious death of Christ is directly attributable to His self-sacrificing love for humanity. Effective service demands the utmost dedication to Christ and the salvation of souls. Zealousness is insufficient, for the Christian ministry has two aspects, name- ly, zeal and ability. It is impossible for one to minister to humanity's needs until he has been regenerated and energized by the efficacious blood of Christ. Personal spiritual experiences must precede all evangelistic endeavors. The sole purpose of NC. B. I. is that of enabling consecrated young people to receive spiritual wisdom and strength through prayer and study. Prayer is the foremost of all Christian essentials. Prayer and spiritual communion with God constitute a large portion of every student's curriculum. Young women and men have their respective prayer rooms where they may meet with God in supplication and adoration. These prayer rooms are the scenes of many glorious visitations of God's Spirit. The importance of the prayer chamber supercedes that of the class room,- spiritual studies necessitate spiritual life and knowledge. Every day commences with a season of united prayer and praise, as the students assemble in the chapel for a service. A spiritual walk throughout the day necessitates a reception of divine grace and strength. This is the purpose of our morning chapel sessions. United supplication is offered daily in behalf of the prayer requests which we receive from various parts of the United States. Often the glory of God has been revealed so mightily that classes were canceled while the entire morning was spent in His presence. We praise God for these spiritual deluges. These seasons of prayer and blessing enable the student body to go forth and minister to the needs of humanity. F V - . The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. J ames 5:16.
