THE SEMINARY Friends of Northwestern are by this time well acquainted with the need which Dr. W. B, Riley sought to fill when he founded the Northwestern Evangelical Seminary. The influx of modernism into most established semi¬ naries required the formation of a new school to train, for larger churches of the country, pastors who are loyal to fundamental Christianity. The Lord ' s presence has been felt in this new institution through three years of steady growth. Its progress augurs a still greater future. However, the need for fundamental pastors, by no means, has been met, as there are more calls than Dr. Riley can fill. For this reason Evangelical Christians will avail themselves of all opportunities to further the growth of the Northwestern Evangelical Seminary. Early in the school year the Seminary elected officers: President, Lawrence Solomon, N. W. ' 38; Vice President, Harvey Moritz, N. W. ' 36; Secretary- Treasurer, Lois Trimble, N. W, ' 38. At our next meeting, the president sug¬ gested that we find some way of advertising ourselves to the students of the Bible School to provide for the future growth of the seminary. Taking a cue from the radio sponsors, we decided that performing a service is the best form and, with the encouragement of the School administration, set out to fill the need described above. As this is being written the Seminary ' s accomplishments include a series of open forums during November and December. The seminary intends before the close of the school year to have conducted also a series of debates, A school-wide survey-study of the needs and interests of the Bible School student body is also in order. What the Seminary Means to Me The Northwestern Evangelical Seminary, I am happy to say, teaches that the Bible is the infallible Word of God and vindicates the Bible in all of its subjects. The Seminary does three things for the ardent student: establishes his faith, enlarges his conception of religion, and enlightens his mind con¬ cerning the originc! languages in which the Bible was written. The course in Biblical Introduction will establish the accuracy and author¬ ship of the Bible beyond the shadow of a doubt. Archeology confirms the truths of the Bible which critics have long held in disrepute. Why is it that every race and tribe known to man is dominated by its religion? Why is Christianity superior to all other philosophies and religions? These are pertinent questions, Christians should know what they believe and why they believe it. Such questions are well analyzed in our courses in Systematic Theology and Christian Philosophy, We delve into these ancient religions and philosophies and in contrasting them with Christianity we elevate the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints. Truly, the Seminary tends to enlarge our conception of religion. Our School strives to enlighten the minds of its students concerning the original languages in which our blessed Book was written. There are advantages in this study, for new meaning is given to the Scripture through a knowledge of these languages. In the Authorized Version of the Bible we read in 1 Peter 1:4: ll To an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, and that fadeth not away. In the Greek the phrase that fadeth not away is but one word amamnton from which we get our word amaranth, an imaginary flower said by poets to be unfading, ever blooming. This is but one of the many examples of the richness of thought which is expressed in the original languages in which our Bible vras written. ( 22 )
