No. Dedication is wholehearted allegiance to an object or person. Prayer for guidance, endeavoring to perfect a book that will be inspirational as well as enjoyable, think- ing and meditating on responsibility when off duty, are areas more directly related to dedication. Working as a part of the Reflector staff was both enjoyable and enriching. The need for late hours occasionally, gave a greater appreciation for the times we could go to bed on schedule. Discussions in the editorial room were upbuilding and helped to relieve the boredom of long hours. It provided an opportunity to get better ac- quainted with the members of the admin- istration and faculty. At times it seems our efforts in the small areas of everyday life are inconsequential. Nevertheless, God pronounces a blessing on the individual who is faithful and ded- icated in the unseen areas of service. The promise comes, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things . . . enter thou into the joy of thy lordf' Matthew 25:21. -Wilmer Eshbach TOUCH SOMECNE message from the intellect, reaches an intellectg but a message from a life, reaches a life. God has ordained that His work He per- formed by human instrumentality. He does not just desire that His message reach the outward man, but also the spirit. How can we touch the inner' man of those around us? This is only accomplished as our spirit is released. In Scripture, the alabaster box had to be broken before the fragrance of its precious contents could radiate. The Holy Spirit must break our minds, our will, and our emotions, and transform our spirit, before the refinement of our inner man can permeate another's life. As we allow the Spirit to crush our outer man in any area of struggle, our spirit can be released to touch someone with a similar conflict. We can only penetrate another in the areas of our experience and brokenness. Let us allow the Holy Spirit to pulverize our outer man, so that our spirit may be emitted to our fellowmen. - -Marvin Strubhar Godis demand is not, Give me thine intellect, but, Give me thine heart. PRINCIPALS' and MATRONS' MESSAGES THE FIRST HOUR The first hour of each day is by far the most important. It is vital to every Chris- tian to have a daily meeting with God through the Word and prayer. You may be doctrinally correct, but spiritually dead. That which maintains life is the living Word of God received within the soul each day. The quiet time, alone with God, is vital to spiritual health, spiritual cleansing, spiritual counsel, and spiritual conflict. It is also an honor and a privilege to meet in this way with our Lord. Sa-tan will try to rob us of this daily time, and we need to guard it fearlesslyg for there is no hope of living in victory unless we succeed in this. Some guiding factors, Be awake and alert. Close the door. Ask God what He wants to tell you. Write down the truths from each verse. Meditate on one main truth. Ask God to help you understand and apply it to life. Commit your all to Him. He promises His presence and grace to aid you in living a faithful, victorious life to His honor and glory. -Benjamin Eshbach If God seems far away, guess who moved. 1 HEAVENLY TREASURES Are you laying up treasures in heaven, or are you spending time gathering things together that will perish with time, or even much sooner? Sometimes we get our values confused. ,ff Someone has said, '6He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep, to gain what he cannot lose. Another impressing proverb is that, what we spend, we had, what we keep, we lose, what we give, we keep. There are numerous ways in which we can lay up treasures in Heaven. If we have lost our lives in service to others, we are continually laying up treasures in heaven. Our material possessions will be sacrificed for that purpose also, instead of consuming them ourselves. Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Matthew 6:20-21. I -Anna Eshbach 1. RESPONDIN G TO THE WILL OF GOD For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments: and His com- mandments are not grievous? I John 513. Do we express our love for our Lord in word only, or in loving obedience to His will? I Claims of spirituality while we appear and act like the world, will be shown in their real nature as hypocrisy when stand- ing before our Holy God. We are wise to face truth honestly now, and be spared the exposure and disappointment then. Spiritual tests have often come in what were thought to be little things? The seriousness of. little things lies not only in the things themselves, but also in the spiritual condition of the heart that has produced them. Truly if our practice is not in harmony with what the Lord has spoken, something is seriously lacking in our Christian experience. Loving obedi- ence to His will, tends to purity and holi- ness of life, with joyful anticipation of His soon return. -Paul Ebersole 2 GOD'S CARE How gentle God's commands! How kind His precepts are! Come, cast your burdens on the Lord, and trust His constant care. ' Beneath His watchful eye, His S2l1HfS securely dwell, That hand which bears all nature up, shall guard His children well. Why should this anxious load, press down your weary mind? Haste to your heavenly Father's throne, ' and sweet refreshment find. His goodness stands approved, unchanged from day to day, ' . Come drop your burden at His feet, go with Him,.all the way. Casting all your care upon Him, for He careth for youf' I Peter 5:7. g -adapted by Luella Ebersole God never asks us to give up something, but that he has something infinitely better to put in its place.

' I - Blessed are they that keep his testi- monies, and that seek him with the whole heartf' Psalm 11922. . ' -Brenda Harbold FACULTY MESSAGES MEETING OPPORTUNITIES Many people today fight conviction and reject God's provision of grace. God calls everyone to repentance, but many reject His call and continue in blindly serving self. Following the pleasures of the world does not bring lasting contentment and will only cause regret throughout eternity. The people of God are responsible for the time God has given to them and should use it wisely. Many times we fail to grasp the opportunities to testify for our Lord. Occasionally these opportunities are re- peated, but the challenge faces-us tore- spond to them when they first appear. God commands his people to be a light to the world. A light needs to be shining in order to illuminate. Is our light burning brightly or is it dimmed by pride and self will? The challenge to us is to Redeem the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord isf, -Ornan Bauman LEGALISM Trusting in anything for our salvation other than the grace -of God, is legalism.. It is only by the grace of God that we can be saved. '6For by grace' are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God. Ephesians 2:8. The unmerited favor of God has provided the Blood, the Spirit, and the Word for our salvation. The concept that we are saved by grace but are kept in a saved condition by works is erroneous. Our works and obedience are simply the continued appropriation of the provision. Obedience does not merit salvation, but is the condition upon which God promises his grace to keep us in a saved relationship with him. When we disobey, we are severing the supply of Godis provisions to us. Therefore, obedience is necessary to remain saved, even though it does not in any way earn salvation. -Harlan Martin PROPER VALUES When Amaziah, king of Judah prepared his 300,000 choice men to fight the Edo- mites, he also hired 100,000 mighty men of valour from the apostate king of Israel for 100 talents of silver. God's prophet told Amaziah that unless he returned these men, he would fall before the enemy. Ama- ziah's immediate response was, uB.ut what shall we do for the 100 talents?,' The man of God informed him that through obed- ience, God would repay much more than the 100 talents he would lose. Are we fearful of the extra cost of align- ing our life with God's will, such as: 1. Those dollars we may lose by being conscientiously honest in business? 2. The additional time and money required to obtain modest and dis- tinctive clothing? 3. The apparent loss of destroying those God-defying, abominable radios, T.V.'s, sensual clothing, etc? 4. Depriving ourself of a paycheck or two to attend Numidia Bible School or help a brother with a loss? We must ever remember, The Lord is able to give thee much more than this? II Chronicles 25:9b. . - -James Burkholder .-iii-1111: GUIDANCE Order thou our steps today, Away from sin, that miry clay. Guide us through life's greatest test, Closely clinging to thy breast. On with fellows strong and brave, Defying death, hell, and the grave. Only sure in thy good grace, With works of love filling their place. Keep us from that secret sin, Which leavens all that is within, Or our circle will be broken, Satanls clutch, the very token. Purge us by thy truth, we pray, As we follow in thy way. Lead us on to realms above, Low in heart, but strong in love. -Alvin Snyder 3 THE VISION OF THE VOICE The preliminary vision of the Apostle on Patmos was a view of the glorified character of Christ. John declares, I heard behind mea great voice, as of a trumpet, and I turned to see the voice . . . and being turned, I saw . . . As the God-man His voice is observed to be as the sound of many waters. In that phrase we see unity in diversity. There were many waters-only one sound, re- minding us of the words -of the Hebrew writer, God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in times past . hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son. Hebrews l:1, Za. The voice that shook the earth of old. and called the raging sea'to stillness, that caused demons to flee and said to men, Follow Me, with the ring of judgment and yet with the tenderest tones of com- passion, is speaking in these last days through His Word. , May our vision of that 'One produce in us a fear to refuse Him that speakethf' -David Weaver v coMFoRT1NG oNE ANOTHER Comfort ye, comfort ye, my people, saith your God. - The above words enjoin upon us the obligation to leave comfort with those we fellowship with. In Acts sixteen, God used Paul and Silas to bring saving comfort to the damsel and to the prisonkeeper with his house- hold. After the experience of being beaten and imprisoned, they went to the house of Lydia to comfort the brethren. - We realize that to comfort, we must first have the Comforter indwelling and empowering us. In time of tests, trials, persecutions, and bitter chastening, our brethren need someone to stand by to strengthen and encourage. In time of sick- ness, accident, and death a comforter is very much appreciated. There are times when no one can give comfort as well as we could. May we therefore sense and respond to these needs as our privilege and blessing. Comfort is also obtained in studying the Word and in fellowshipping with the 4 saints in Bible School and other worship services. May we therefore contribute to strength- ening and establishing the brOth6rhOOC1, thereby bringing comfort to all. 'fThe coming of the Lord draweth nighf' Wherefore comfort one another with these words. - D -Sidney Gingrich r JOY FOREVERMORE The disciples came back from their errand of 'witnessing with joy, because they had seen the omnipotence of God defeat the power of Satan. Jesusreminded them that this basis for joy is not the found- ation upon which we should build. We believe Satan, as an angel of light, will deceive the individual who places con- fidence in the abnormal. When we place our confidence in Christ and believe that our names are written in Heaven, this brings glory to our Father in Heaven. A We also rejoice in the fact that our Father reveals the truths of scripture to all who will humble themselves, placing no con- fidence in the flesh. May we all be humble, continually seeking wisdom from above to understand the things of the Spirit, giving ourselves to watchfulness and prayer. V -Herbert Ebersole .Q CHOICE , . Life requires that we make choices. We as Christians must recognize this -fact if we would remain faithful. Many people attempt to remain neutral by not making a choice. In some matters it is possible to remain neutral, but in the realm of our salvation, neutrality is rejection. We make choices many times that affect our destiny, without realizing it. Our choice may affect the lives of an untold number of individuals. Consider Abrahamls wise choices and their blessings to mankind. But we also recognize that Abraham made some very unwise choices and the effects were felt by many. Let us choose wisely to the honor and glory of God. This will determine our own spiritual welfare and will be a bene- fit to others. - Paul Brubacher LEARN GF ME Jesus invites us to learn of Him and prom ISGS that we shall find rest unto our souls The idea of learning and resting at the same t1me does not seem to be true to natural experience We associate study and work w1th the process of learning The Bible says Much study IS a wearr ness of the flesh However all those who labor and are heavy laden shall be given rest as they come to Jesus take H1s yoke upon them and learn of Him The difference in this learn1ng exper1ence from that of the natural man 1S that the man who takes Christs yoke upon h1m IS learning by d1v1ne illumination rather than by human 1ntellect To qualify for the rest which Jesus prom1sed we must receive d1v1ne 1llum1n ation by coming to Jesus as babes The things that are h1dden from the wise and prudent are revealed unto babes Rest comes to the soul when we submit to d1v1ne revelation and thus come to know the Father Matthew 11 25 30 Henry Weaver WORDS Words are the veh1cles that convey thought 1n communication Wlthout words we could not express our emotlons or needs and would find commun1cat1on by gestures qu1te ineffective Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh Our thought l1fe deter mines our words The trouble w1th many people IS that the tongue 1S in h1gh gear long before the mind has had t1me to be come engaged One can usually tell what a person 1S th1nk1ng by the words he speaks Sow a thought reap a word sow a word reap an action sow an action reap a habit sow a hab1t reap a character sow a charac ter reap a destiny The words we use affect every area of l1fe and determine our des tiny Our words will e1ther Justlfy or con demn us before God With the psalmlst we pray Let the words of my mouth and the medltation of my heart be acceptable 1n they Slght O Lord my Strength and my Redeemer Paul Freed GGD'S CALL TO MAN At the time of creation, manls relation ship with God was one of mutual sharing Th1s fellowship was severed at the time of man's fall in the garden Man was con sequently helpless and in need of a Savior God faithfully extended the call to accept the plan He 1n1t1ated The call to man comes 1n various ways The first 1S Gods call to regenerat1on This IS a unlversal call The work of re generation must occur before God calls men into H1s servrce These are personal calls that God holds us responsible for God also calls through the avenue of death Death IS a call that all must answer God has made every provision necessary that we might answer this call with fond an t1c1pat1on May we respond to God s call as He summons us to be partakers of that glorious 1nv1tat1on Come ye blessed of my Father 1nher1t the klngdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world Matthew 25 34b Ray Mart1n WISE UNTO SALVATION The Apostle Paul challenges Timothy with his childhood knowledge of the Scriptures and calls attentlon to the great contribution this influence has had upon his life This IS certainly an unmerited favor we also enjoy We cannot fully realize how the development of our own lives hinges on our knowledge of Gods Word The truths our parents and church fathers have extended to us have greatly enhanced our desire to revere our God We rejoice to see God at work as He through the 1nsp1rat1on of H1s Word 1S 1n every succeeding generation call1ng men to be wise unto salvation Our lives should be continually touched by such truths of eternal ver1ty They are foundational 1n God unchanging 1n pre cept and eternally settled in Heaven Let us be throughly furnished unto all good works as we by Gods grace have been made wise unto salvation James Ehst . .

The rewards, however, may need to be distributed in many unnoticed places be- hind the scene. God overlooks nothing. The faithful servant of God does not need to be in the front to have his influence brought to bear where it counts the most. What do we see behind the scene? We see God at work, setting the stage and brin ing things to pass that would be be- yond the ability of human effort. He makes it possible for His people to initiate a pro- gram that meets the spiritual needs of the soul. We see those who are making a sac- rifice of time and material, so that others can enjoy a period of Bible study and fellow- ship. Again we see those who know the value of silent, secret intercession, that employs the power of God to bring about the great miracle of grace, in the deep recesses of the heart. -Daniel Kraybill SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES D Jesus, speaking in John 5:39 said, Search the Scripturesg for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. The Jews had the Old Testa- ment. They read it in the synagogues, and offered the sacrifices that typified Jesus, but failed to recognize Him when He ap- peared. As we study the Word, we need to see Jesus as our only hope of eternal life. In light of this we see our need of turning our lives over to him and accepting the way of life that He exemplifies and commands. We then search the Scriptures finding principles that govern our lives. This also strengthens our faith and produces a lively hope. Jesus said, Ye shall know the truth and the truth diall make you free. Know- ing the truth helps us to avoid the snares and pitfalls of Satan and exercise ourselves rather unto godliness. If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. - Clarence Good 6 WHAT IS THAT IN THINE HAND? God faced Moses with this question when he expressed his reluctance to bring God's message of deliverance to the people of Israel. The reply was, a rod? This small, in- significant rod, God used to vindicate Moses' authority both to Israel and to Pharaoh. The same rod that was an in- strument of judgment to the Egyptians, became a blessing to the children of Israel in parting the Red Sea, at the smitten rock in the wilderness, and in time of war with the Amalekites. Z God defended the authority he had placed on Moses and Aaron by -causing Aaron's rod to bud. . In our hands today we have the inspired Word. Just as the rod bore witness to Moses message, so the Word will substantiate all' those who proclaim the message of Sal- vation, whether we go to the ungodly world or the unbelieving , professors of Christi- anity. As the rod judged the Egyptians and blessed Israel, so the Word condemns all who reject it and justifies those who embrace it. When we as God's people rally around the Word, it will cause contentions to cease and unite us in the faith. A ' -Clarence Wenger BLESSED IS THE MAN V. It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumedf' We, as men, are totally in need of God's blessings. They come to us new and fresh each day as a token of his constant love and faithfulness. This is the blessing and goodness of God to all men. ' Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the Word of God, and keep it.', Luke 11:28b. This we do by hearing the Word and ex- pressing it in lifels revealing actions. Keep- ing all of life's blessings subject to the Word and will of God, becomes our daily responsibility. As we keep our desires, our Ithoughts, and our feelings securely within the shelter of His Government, may we hear these words, Blessed fart thouf' I - Gerald Eberly ww, . ff I ,' . ,. MNH, ,' .- , THANKFULNESS We believe it is necessary to make a survey of the many blessings our Lord ,is imparting to us today, so that we main- tain a proper attitude of thanksgiving in an ungrateful society. 'cGiving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christf' Ephesians 5:20. We have reasons to thank the Lord for the spiritual benefits that we enjoy in our generation, and the abund- ant provisions in the natural realms of life. We express our thankfulness by respond- ing in full obedience to His Word. The thankful individual is not contin- ually complaining about the weather, eco- nomic conditions of the nation, or how he is treated by others. He will thank the Lord for all experiences in life, and use them as stepping stones in drawing him closer to his master. Romans 1:21 gives a description of a people who once knew the Lord, and now have become vain in their imaginations because of the spirit of unthankfulness. It resulted in their foolish heart being dark- ened. May we ever express an attitude of thankfulness, lest we become blinded to spiritual truth. - John Sensenig LIFE'S STEPS From the time a child is. born, we an- ticipate his first steps, though they are slow and unsure. The young Christian venturing out, also relies on others to assist him. Through exercise one's steps become more confident, naturally and spiritually. Our walk becomes almost a run as we try to keep pace with increased respon- sibilities in Christian service, and bear the burden and heat of the day. However, as we approach that step between us and death, our steps retard. As Peter and John went to the tomb but lingered at the door Some people, like Peter run to that last step and walk right in Others like John linger near the door before death. Qur last step takes us into eternity. May we let the Lord so or er our steps that they will lead to that desired destiny. that Easter morning, John outran Peter, ' -Amos Hostetter HWHOM SAY YE THAT I AMT, In the company of the disciples, Jesus asked two questions, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? g and again, But whom say ye that I am? In response to the first question, the disciples acknowledged that men in general were not sure who He was. Jesus, how- ever, not being satisfied with the testimony of others, inquired what His disciples thought of Him. Peter therefore, made that great declaration, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living Godf' He confessed the Lordship of Christ, and consequently obtained a special blessing. This question calls us to demonstrate the same -belief in our lives. To confess the Lordship of Christ, is to believe in and live under His leadership. We need to surrender to His Lordship, appropriate His power, mortify the deeds of the flesh, forsake the world, and become personally involved in building the church, and main- taining its purity. To do so is to be recip- ients of the blessing of God. -Boyd Campbell .l1 -.--l SAVED TO AS WELL AS FROM Is it possible that we may be wrong while we are right? Have we been holding to the letter of truth, while at the same time moving away from it in spirit because we have been preoccupied with what we have been saved from, rather than what we have been saved to? In I Thessalonians l:9b,10 Paul calls attention to this very thing, You have turned 'to God from idols' to serve the living and true God, and to wait for His Son from heaven. . . The Christian is saved from his past sins and the wrath of God. Sin and wrath have a cause-and- effect relationship, and because for the Christian, sin is canceled, wrathl is can- celed also. As Christians we need to keep in mind what we have been delivered from, and keep our gaze on the One Who will con- tinue to lead us to eternal glory. The Christian now rejoices in his new life, new hope, new employment, and his interests are no longer to serve this world, but the Lord Who saved him. -Edwin Gehman 7 r 6... I' rw PERCEPTIGN With the widely varied theories, teach- ings, and doctrines surrounding tus today, God would challenge us to spiritual dis- cernment that will assist us in keeping our walk with God balanced. The Scripture tells us that those who are able to discern both good and evil, are ready to absorb the strong meat of truth. j To udiscerni' means to detect and men- tally grasp the divergence of numerous ideas. May these seasons of concentrated Bible study be advantageous in discern- ing the influences that bear upon us today. Bible study also helps to discern in choos- ing a life companion, in planning for a vocation, and in intelligently discriminating among various church groups. May we all advance far beyond the mere discern- ment of the face of the sky fMatthew 16:35 to a spiritual discernment of the signs of the times. r -David Wadel 1-7 A FOR GRANTED i When Joseph and Mary started their homeward journey from the passover at Jerusalem, they took 'lfor grantedn that Jesus was in the company. After a dayls travel they discovered that he was missing. Joseph and Mary's unpleasant experience reveals the danger of taking things for granted. ,Had they searched for .Jesus at the beginning of the trip, they would have avoided unnecessary travel, several days' wasted time, and much anxiety. , We are also on our homeward journey, and perhaps we are taking for granted that which is of a more serious nature. It may be well to stop and consider lest we assume .something that is not true. Forgiveness-without repentance, newness of life-without dying to self, and serving Christ-but not forsaking the world, are some common assumptions. The tragedy of coming to the end of the journey and discovering that Christ is not with us, can be avoided by check- ing for His presence today. Examine yourselves whether ye be in the faith. Il Corinthians 13:5a. -Donald N olt 8 GREAT GRACE wAnd great grace was upon them all. Acts 4:33b. Grace is the unmerited favor of God, and since it is not obtained by good works, it is a gift,' Of God. Peter and John were threatened by the authorities not to speak or teach in the name of Jesus. When they were released, however, they returned to the brethren to report their experiences. After they had prayed, the place was shaken, and they spoke the Word of God with boldness. Here at Bible School we have studied and prayedltogether. In the scripture we read, T he Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightlyf' God's grace upon the apostles was to enable them to be a testi- mony for Jesus wherever they went, and under any circumstance. May God's grace be upon us as we endeavor to be a testi- mony that attracts others to a separated life in Jesus Christ. Let us come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. A -Edwin Martin THE VALUE GF SINGING Singing is an outlet whereby we express to God and man the emotions of our heart. Although singing may at times stir the emotions, it is from within, rather than from outside sources. The message of the hymn confirms the heart in truth, and provides an avenue whereby we can give our testi- mony. V r V Singing as a congregation, provides a way for all to participate in the worship service. This blessing is lost when replaced by special singing. Singing together as a congregation promotes unity, as the thoughts of the hymn are expressed as a group. T One of the ways the world knows the people of God is by their singing. The Scripture in .Psalm 137:3b, tells us that they are longing to hear our singing. Sing us one of the songs of Zionf' They come to us because they can see by our lives that we have experienced the true mean- ing of these hymns. - Enos . Shank MIGHTY IN THE SCRIPTURES In a normal life span everyone acquires to some degree a reputation Usually that reputation reflects with some accuracy the character of that individual We be come known by that which we value by that which we practice and by that in which we excel Groups as well as in dividuals gain a reputation A reputation can be several sided Hope fully people also come to sense that we have been with Jesus and are a people of the Book In Acts 18 24 we meet a be l1ev1ng Jew named Apollos His only Bible was the Old Testament and yet he had a reputation for being mighty in the Scriptures During the 16th century there arose a people who likewise were mighty m the Scriptures Many an uneducated Ana baptist proved more than a match for Roman Catholic doctors of theology So great was their proficiency 1n the Scr1p tures that their opponents sometimes as cribed it to demon possession How does one become mighty in the Scriptures? There is no short cut but there are helps. Numidia Bible School, under the direction and blessing of God, can function as one of these helps. Merle Ruth THE CHURCH SUPPORTING HER KING Following King Ahaziah's death, Judah was without a king, whereupon the king's mother seized the throne and destroyed all the royal seed of the house of Judah. Her reign seemed almost invincible as thou h God were sanctionin the program g 8 - There is however no might in the display of iniquity. The absence of purity, justice, and love will cause any organization to crumble. This is exactly what happened to Athaliahis reign in six year's time. Joash, ' ' h f th the son of King Ahaziah was broug t or from hiding as one from among the slain. He was anointed king by Jehoiada the Priest and began his reign with the slaying of Athaliah. It was amidst the confederacy of evil forces that the Levites were called to gather in support of their new king II Chronicles 23 7 The Levites were told to be with the king wherever he went Smce Joash lS symbolic of Christs resurrection as the Church need to learn that to be effective we too need this same power so that we might defend and promote the Doctrine of Christ our King 1n its purity We become partakers of His Resurrection power through the implanting of Gods own Divine nature making our relation ship a blessed one Mark Sensenig MORE THAN CONQUERORS An individual 1S conquered by the power of God when he allows the Spirit of God to possess him The work 1S then performed from the inside out rather than from the outside in I needs to fade out as the Spirit of God moves in This is what happens as we move from Romans 7 to Romans 8. used thirty three times in Romans 7, is found only twice in Romans 8. The Spirit is not seen at all in Romans 7, but is mentioned nineteen times in Romans 8. How do we now move from being con quered to being more than conquerors? To be more than conquerorsf' we need to be more than conquered. Our thoughts, our actions, and our motives need to be conquered. These areas of life need to be brought into willing service for Christ. Our mental faculties are brought into service for Him. The energies we have are now employed in His work. Our total life is henceforth a life which He can use. All that we have has not only been sub dued, but also given in useful devotion to Him. What a joy it is to personally be more than conquerorsl' for Him. Harry Erb Salvation is wonderfully simple, and simply wonderful. . . , . 1 ' s u n ' I 7 ' . . I O . 9 I 1 - - . .

In one way fear is very valuable, since it keeps us from sporting with danger and risk, while it can be very harmful, if it becomes our master. The Bible refers to various kinds of fear, the most significant of which is, the fear of God, termed as the 'fbeginning of wisdom. Before we have the fear of God, we first experience fear that comes from the consequences of sin. A After repentance we have a different kind of fear, producing reverence and respect for- God, and making us concerned about pleasing this object of our reverence. We have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christi, Romans 5:1b. Gnly after we have this peace, are we in a position to develop the fear of God that is essential to a useful and fruitful life. If we truly have the fear of Godf' we can, in a practical way, overcome other fears and serve Him with reverence and godly fear. - Jesse Neuenschwander , REFLEC TION The Bible tells us in Genesis 1:31 that, God saw every thing He had made, and behold it was very goodf' His creation was a reflection of His own greatness and power. . In the plan and creation of all things, man 'was formed and became the image and likeness of God, as God breathed into his nostrils the breath of life. Man, with a living soul, was able to fellowship with God and was a reflection of God Him- self. Man's disobedience marred this re- flection and relationship, and he was driven from the presence of God. God's love and mercy provided a Redeemer in the person of Jesus Christ, making it possible for man to be brought back into fellowship with Him, and to again be that reflection which was lost in his selfish, disobedient act. The blessings of fellowship and study of God's Word in Bible School, help us to keep our lives a brighter reflection of the victorious Christian life. -Walter Newswanger 10 The true church is made up of voluntary believers that are waging an aggressive warfare against sin, and upholding Gods standard of righteousness. ,l,,l11l-i-il- No storm can wreck the program of God. ,,i. 1.g-114:11 ' GUR SINGING HERITAGE The first hymn singing in Scriptures recorded in Matthew 26, when Jesus and his disciples were in the upper room to- gether, before his Gethsemane experience. In the Psalms we are told to sing unto the Lord, and to make a joyful noise. We be- lieve that in early church life, the singing of Psalms was customary. ' As earlyas 1527, songs were written and sung, many of which are recorded in the Ausbund Hymnal, first published in 1564. In early American Mennonite Churches, hymn books were few and had no music with the words. About the year 1900, hymn books with music were introduced and singing schools became popular. Today we have many hymn books with a wide variety of songs and hymns on many topics. I am thankful to be a part of a church group that believes singing is an essential part of worship. l -Aaron Weaver BUT GOD Reflecting on our past, we recognize in the circumstances surrounding our in- dividual experiences, that God was order- ing the events, the associations, the trials, and the blessings. Our inner man rejoices and responds in praise for this particular testimony of His love and mercy toward us. The Numidia Bible School is a mon- ument to divine intervention. God com- mended His love toward us through Christ Jesus while we were yet sinners. His mercy and grace, although epitomized at Calvary, are presently extended in the opportun- ities for spiritual growth as we submit to His will and appropriate His power. Consider the responses you have made to opportunities graciously extended through your Bible School experience.

The psalmist says, Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path? We appreciate the illuminating rays of light that reach us here at Bible School. These are cleansing rays and the rays of growth and hope. Solomon says, The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. As we receive the light, we can be a light to others. Some- times by disobedience, we cause the light to be eclipsed, but if we .remove ourselves and our desires, Christ's light again per- vades the scene. When our feelings get too prominent, they shut off the light and we may begin to grope and stagger. As we commit our all to Christ, brighter and brighter he will shine, until we reach the perfect day. Here there will be no night, for the Lord God is the light. May all our efforts and study be pointed toward the illuminating factors of that Eternal City. -Gliver Hess DELIVERAN CE The children of Israel were in the land of Egypt for four hundred thirty years. The Egyptians had made slaves of them and placed them under brutal taskmasters. The Israelites cried to God by reason of their bondage and God heard their cry. God now began to prepare them for deliverance, and to influence the minds of the Egyptians and Pharaoh, their ruler, by sending plagues upon them. The Israel- ites were instructed to make special prep- arations for the last of these. On a given day, they were to take the blood of a per- fect lamb and strike it on the two side posts and upper door post of every house. Thefpurpose of this was that the firstborn son might be saved when God passed through the land that night. Under the new covenant, Jesus Christ, the perfect lamb, died as a sacrifice, that we through His blood may obtain deliver- ance from the bondage of sin. I thank God that we can be delivered from the power of sin through faith in Christ Jesus and his blood. This faith then inspires love for our Deliverer and a desire to be in His service. -Henry Martin AS coLD WATERS It is pleasant to observe many students engrossed in letters from home and friends during intermission periods. One is re- minded that, As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country? Proverbs 25:25. All people, either con- sciously or unconsciously, experience an estranged feeling when temporarily sep- arated from loved ones. A degree of this estrangement is also felt by the growing Christian, as 'he yearns for the return of Christ. We who know the Lord are responsible to represent the far country. Our lives will be a refreshment, as we apply the treasures of truth, that come from God's throne. A holy, calm, 'self-control will have a cooling effect upon heated tempers. f'A soft answer turneth away wrath. We cool tensions by a depicture of calmness and security. Instead of relying on wordly organizations for security, we rest on the promises of God. Then truly our fellow- men can say, The bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother? Philemon 7b. -Isaac Sensenig Always evaluate the criticism before you evaluate the critic. Liberty apart from God, is bondage. 11 The true Christian is not living a life separated from the world, but a Izfe sep- arated unto God.

The prophet Habakkuk asked this question when he looked at the violence and sin in Israel. It seemed to him, as he viewed the situation, that God was doing nothing about the lamentable state of affairs. God's answer posed a yet more perplex- ing problem to Habakkuk. How could God use a nation to punish Israel that was even more wicked than they? V Habakkuk received a vision of God's sovereign control of nations and His ul- timate judgment upon sin. He no longer need to .ask where God was, but in his human weakness, seemed a bit fearful that God was doing too much. g - n We need that vision today, ,because sin is rampant. Judgment is perverted and the world seems to have lost 'all respect for sacred things. Some ask, Where is God? Why is he not answering the prayers ascending from hearts burdened with this sad condition? The encouraging challenge from Habakkuk is that God sees, is in con- trol, and is at work. by -Glenn Sensenig 4 . 4- .4 -3. 1 ,-ff -.U -af. L . s fi Has' 4.

This book could also be called the wanderings, murmurings, and journeyings of Israel. Chapters one through ten give the instructions and preparation for the journey. In their travels the Israelites had a three-fold blessing, the ark, the cloud, and the prayer of Moses. A few of the outstanding lessons we learned are: -spiritual rest is only attained after spiritual warfare -we must recognize our dependence on others -the beginning is no guarantee of the end -the enerations of tomorrow are S affected by what we do today. Throughout the book we see God's plea: . . . Remember all the command- ments of the Lord and do themf' Numbers 15:39a. 0 -Linda Martin 21 JOB The theme of this book is, uthe child of God facing trialsf, This made the book a very practical study since it is something we all face in our Christian experience. We observed that Job was a righteous man and perfect, even though he was the greatest man in the East. He had submitted to God and had learned to place his trust in Him. We were challenged in Hebrews 12:1,2 to run the race of life with patience. God did not reveal to Job why he was being stricken, neither does God always show us why some circumstances come into our lives. ,We must remember, how- ever, that all things are for a good purpose. With Job's affliction we can see the in- finite control God has over his people. Job's three friends were motivated by Satan in that they tried to convince Job that sin was the cause of his affliction, when God had proclaimed him perfect. This is an encouraging account to remem- ber when Satan brings doubts accusing us of forgiven sin. A Let us always keep in mind that, the sufferings of this present time are not wort-hy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Romans 8:18b. -Fred Miller . I I ISAMUEL First Samuel is not a dry account of history, but we found it to be fresh with applicable lessons. The miraculous victories, the crushing defeats, and the characters interwoven throughout this book, all speak to the theme of God at work to accomplish His purposes. Amid the spiritual failure of Israel, God moved by the faith of a woman, a godly home, and a temple experience to pre- pare Samuel for His work. Through Samuel God endeavored to bring His people back to Him. By bringing judgment on Israel and through the capture of the ark, God vin- dicated His holy name among the heathen and showed Israel that His presence could not rest among rebellious people. 22 But Israel failed to recognize God's presence or His working among them, and desired a king. God's answer to their request was a man of humble beginning, but of a miserable end. God then appointed David, a faithful man, to again bring his people victory. Spiritual victory' is God's purpose for his people today. Are we going to allow Him to use us to further His purpose, or will we rebel and go down in everlasting defeat? ' -Elvin Graybill, Jr. II SAMUEL . This book portrays ae.. dark picture, with deceptions and revolts occurring. The nation of Israel was weak after Saulls death because of his unfaithfulness. David, how- ever, a man after Godls own heart, was able to strengthen it to great power. David, chosen and prepared of God for the king- dom, allowed God to remove Saul from the throne. Before taking the kingdom, David first inquired of God and then follow- ed His instructions. David's lamentations over the slain, his desire to win and make men useful for God, and establishing a proper wor- ship place, were methods he employed in strengthening the kingdom. When rebuked for sin, he repented, but still suffered the consequences. Those who revolted against the kingdom suffered death. David, being a man of war, was not per- mitted to build God's house. God promised David a son, who would build His house and for whom God would establish an everlasting kingdom. We see the ultimate fulfillment of this promise in Christ. To- day we are recipients of that everlasting Kingdom.

God has no pleasure in judgment, but the rebellious and stiff necked children of Israel would not turn from their wicked ways and idolatrous worship. Throughout the book we see the just suffering with the unjust in judgment. God always keeps His eye on the faith ful remnant and will not forget them.

Hebrews 1011. In these studies we see the tabernacle as only a shadow of good things to come. As we approach the tabernacle, a type of Salvation, there is only one entrance, Christ. cc , - , . . m . . , . . - ' I , . . . .

This is a comforting truth for us today as we endeavor to stand in the gap for those who are seeking truth. The prophecies following chapter 37 are basically unfulfilled. Ezekiel 'foretells that the land of Israel shall again be in- habited by Godls chosen people, and its ruins rebuilt. -Verna Lehman HABAKKUK, ZEPHANIAH, HAGGAI The parallel characteristics of this study of three minor prophets are calamity, con- sumed, and corrected. Habakkuk-calamity is noted because the prophet sees mighty Babylon over- shadowing the weakening Judah and Jeru- salem. Destruction is an accepted fact. The just shall live by his faith, is the noted promise to the saint. Zephaniah- I will consumef' are the primary words which give an index to the book. The day of man and the day of Jehovah manifest the two major divisions. This prophet, active long before the cap- tivity, prophesied judgment on the sins of Judah and her neighboring nations. Haggai-correctional rebuke is given by the prophet to the builders of Jerusalem after the captivity in Babylon. The temple construction was forsaken by the people We must then come to the altar, the cross, and deal with our sins. We dare not stop here, but as the priests washed in the laver, so we must daily be cleansed by the Word to fit ourselves to enter God's presence. As we move into the tabernacle, we see the candlestick as a type of the church with Christ central. The table of shew- bread was the center of union and fellow- ship for the priests, typifying our com- munion service. This study has been a means of helping us appreciate more the covenant we live under. -Carolyn Sensenig TYPES AND SHADOWS To begin the study of Types and Shadows, we defined the terms type, antitype, and shadow. A type is an Old Testament person or object which exemplifies an antitype in the New Testament. An antitype is a New Testament person or object represent- ed by the type. The shadow shows that something real is in the background. Sometimes we are limited in our com- prehension of types. They are limited in themselves because they cannot experience the joy of the real. They cannot contain all the truths and details embodied in the New Testament objects. One example of this is contained in John 3:14 and 15. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wild- erness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in 23 Him should not perish, but have eternal lifef' The brazen serpent could only give natural life, not eternal life as did the Son of man. Therefore types do not establish doctrine, but simply help us to gain a clear- er understanding of it. Throughout the study of Types and Shadows we were inspired and enlightened with the New in the Old concealed, and the Old in the New revealed. -Fred Carpenter MATTHEW Where is He that is born King of the Jews?,, the wise men asked of Herod. Matthewsportrays this King as, the babe born of a virgin, and as the looked for Messiah. ' . The writer records many of the words and works of Jesus. About one half of his writings are the direct quotations of Jesus, among which is-the Sermon on the Mount, with the new and better standards of the Covenant of Grace. These include His teachings on Nonresistance, adultery, swearing of oaths, prayer and fasting, and giving of alms. Matthew also records the seven parables of the Kingdom and many of Jesus' mighty works and miracles. A Matthew relates Jesus' teaching of His coming suffering and of His Second Coming. In great detail he speaks of this great King's unjust trial, cruel scourging, crucifixion, burial, and after three days His glorious Resurrection. The Gospel concludes with our Risen Lord giving the Great Commission to His disciples. - Andrew Rudolph SERMON ON THE MOUNT Our class met four days a week to study Matthew 5, 6, and 7. With our teacher we disclosed nuggets of truth which these chapters contain. Jesus and His disciples went to the mountain and when He had sat down, He taught with authority and simplicity. Verses three to twelve of chapter 5 are k-nown as the Beatitudes, which means beautiful attitudes. Studying these verses, we noticed that spiritual exercise and nu- tritious food stimulate our appetite for 24 righteousness. We are told to be happy and rejoice when men mistreat us, and say all manner of evil against us falsely. Our reward will be great in heaven if the evil said against us is untrue. g We were remindedthat as we hear and apply God's word to our lives, we are as the wise man who built on the solid rock. If we fail toapply this, however, we build on sand, and will not remain steadfast under pressures of life. We are challenged with accepting the authority of the Sermon on the Mount. I V -Esther Yoder LUKE The writer of this book was inspired by God to write this gospel to his Friend Theo- philus, and to all people, that we might be certain of those things wherein we have been instructed. Luke, a physician, presents Christ to us as the Son of man who was born in the flesh, to die in the flesh, and was tempted in' all points like as we are. I We have to marvel as we see prophecy fulfilled in the .Son of God. Christ's labors and miracles, and His love for the lost sheep of Israel, show to us the divinity of His nature. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 We rejoice that Christ rose again for our justification, and also that we' can have life more abundantly. ' -Raymond Kraemer , . There are blessings in obedience, even if we can 't understand the command. i In returning and rest shall ye he saved,' in quietness and in conjidence shall be your strength. U ' ' - N x +1 'N Q 1 P A hex., 1 GALATIANS The Apostle Paul wrote this epistle to correct an error that had entered the churches of Galatia False teachers were leading the Galatian Christians astray claim ing that Paul was not a true apostle and that his gospel was false They taught that Gentile Christians should obey the cere monial law to be saved Paul first defends his gospel by proving his apostleshlp and that his gospel came by divine revelation He then declares this gospel, showing that justification is by faith, not by the law. The law served as a schoolmaster to show man his inability to attain righteous ness, and point him to Christ. Through Christ, man is liberated from the bondage of the law and is adopted into God's family as a son. Finally, Paul presents the demands of the gospel. Through this liberty in Christ, the flesh is crucified, and the fruit of the Spirit becomes evident. Philip Danner In the concluding chapter we are given some practical instruction for the Chris tian life He ends with a request for the saints to remember him in their prayers as he labors in bonds Edwin Stoltzfoos I AND I THESSALONIANS There IS much encouragement for the church in these two letters to the Thes salonians. Paul expressed appreciation for their faithfulness, and was concerned that they would continue to walk according to the commandment of God. They were comforted by the message of the Lordls return, and had no fear of the judgment to be executed on the works of darkness. This judgment was not intended for them, but it was God's plan that they should accept salvation by Jesus Christ. Their testimony went to the heathen and to new ly established churches, as being one of pure brotherhood, and zeal for the Lord. Their fellowship and mutual edification , - - , .- . , 3 . . - I - .L , N COLOSSIAN S This epistle was written by Paul during his imprisonment at Rome. It was written to counteract heresy which had come into the church. Paul explains the superi- ority of Christ in all areas of life, using the preeminence of Christ as his theme. He also gives doctrinal and practical teaching for the Christian life. Paul opens the book by sharing his ap- preciation for their testimony. He lends encouragement by reassuring them of his continued prayer support. In the second chapter, Paul combats error with truth, and shows our perfection in the fullness of Christ. The placing of our affection is the first issue dealt with in the third chapter. We express our death to the flesh by mortify- ing its members and experience a new life in Christ by adopting the new nature. As new creatures, we find each taking his place in God's order of headship. was in direct relation to their love for one another. Both epistles conclude with the concept of fidelity by God's enabling grace. -Robert Sensenig, Jr. TITUS AND PHILEMON On the island of Crete in the Mediter- ranean Sea was a group of believers need- ing a leader. Titus, a faithful brother, was sent to direct the work. Giving him directions, the Apostle Paul wrote a letter that is still relevant today. The elders must be blameless, having faith- ful children. As church members we are called to be sober and an example of good works. The challenge is given to us to live lives that we, too, may be heirs of eternal life. Paul wrote letters even in prison. In a short letter to Philemon, he wrote of Onesimus, Philemon's runaway slave. Onesimus was changed. Now he was a profitable man, helpful to Paul, but will- ing to return home. 25 Paul asks Philemon to receive Onesimus, not as a slave, but as a Christian brother. Unheard of? Probably. But Paul was count- ing on him to do even more. Can we be counted on for like obedience? Paul closes with greetings to his faith- ful friends. -Mary Lois Eshbach -l- REVELATION The book of Revelation consists of the unveiling of Jesus Christ. This revelation was given in three distinct parts, outlined in 1:19. In the first part of the revelation we see a vision of the glorified Christ. Follow- PSECTICN Il - BI SEPARATION g Godhas called his children to be sep- arate from the world in every phase of life. Since we have been born again, our motives and goals are changed, and our affection is set on things above instead of on earthly possessions. The Christian finds separation to be a satisfying way of life. Business, education, social life, marriage, and attire are not engaged in for the exultation and promotion of- self, but rather to honor and glorify God. I We also find that we are not to become involved in the world's organizations, politics, and carnal warfare, because we belong to the heavenly kingdom. Because it is written, Be ye holy, for I am holy. I Peter 1:16. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Romans 816. -Elizabeth Showalter 26 ing this vision we have a picture of then existing situations. This picture is portrayed in messages of commendation and con- demnation to the seven churches of Asia. Embodied in the third part, we see a vision of things that shall be hereafter. In this portion we have a background scene of the church in glory, as God closes his controversy with the universe. The bottled- up judgments of God are poured out on the earth without mixture. These judgments will finally culminate in the overthrow of Satan and his kingdom. There is a bright side to this book, how- ever, because there are those who repent and turn to God. We, too, can be over- comers as we -keep the sayings of the pro- phecy of this book. -David Sensenig B L E D 0 C T R I N E NONRESISTANCE What is nonresistance? We generally think of it as being that of nonparticipation in the military, or not ,getting revenge when someone mistreats us. That is right, but is not the only area that relates to the Christian life. ' ' In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus in- troduces and explains this doctrine. It is a way of life and an attitude of the mind. It applies and reaches into our daily walk of life. We submit ourselves to the things which God allows to come into our lives to test us in this area. How do we treat our brother? Do we hold grudges? ,How do we use our tongue? The scripture gives us practical advice on the use of the tongue in James. , WC, who have been redeemed by His own. precious blood, should, out of deep gratitude and love for Him, seek to live the nonresistant life He has exemplified. -Vernon Kurtz -1 fu-ss.. ,ff -, ff., - .., .-I .. ,V ,,,,, , ..- .Y ,r,.,,,.,.-:.1..,7y --.-71-T-xfxvl ' -1--1 fi- -ff--if:-if.'?f?

T x 1- k FORMATION AND INSPIRATION OF THE SCRIPTURES Our Bible is truly a marvelous piece of work It was written over a period of 12001500 years by forty different writers and yet has perfect unity In our study we discovered that the Bible IS the complete Revelation of God In its inspiration God gave the writer the words but did not bypass the individuals Our Bible came as a progressive Rev elation The facts were passed by word of mouth from Adam to Moses From that time on it was written in various sections at different times until finally Ezra according to tradition compiled what we presently know as the Old Testa ment May our hearts be grounded in the faith so we can give answer to the reason of the hope that is in us which hope IS in the promise of eternal life Thelma Baer ORDINANCES An ordinance is an established outward ceremony with an inward spiritual s1gn1f mandments and suggestions given by a holy God to be observed by a holy people Ordinances are valuable to stir the emotions instruct the mind and help to keep our practices consistent with our doctrine In the Bible we find several different types of ordinances In the Old Testament 7 7 , . . . . , . . . . . .- ersonalit . icance.

In 397 A.D. the Council of Carthage officially ratified what was already considered the New Testament canon. Truly we ought to be grateful to God for the way he has preserved his Word in spite of attempts to destroy it. -Kenneth Good EIGHTEEN ARTICLES OF FAITH What do you believe? Why do you do what you do? These questions face each Christian as he moves in today's society. The Mennonite faith, as we practice it, emerged under severe persecution as men searched the Scriptures during the Re- formation period. We believe that Godis Word was given to man by His Spirit. God, great and- eternal, is revealed in three persons: the Father, sovereign, the Son, our Saviour, and the Holy Spirit, our indwelling Com- forter. God in mercy promised a Redeemer, who came in the form of his Son, died for man's sin, and rose again to bring salvation. After repentance from sin, we become a part of the church, whose calling is to be separate and to .administer discipline and the ordinances. there were Jewish ordinances for Gods people to keep. There were pagan ordin- ances that God commanded his people to abstain from. In Jesus' day, those who observed man-made ordinances were said to worship God in vain. As we obey the seven ordinances that are based on scriptural principle today, we will be greatly blessed. Jesus' words in John 13:17 are: If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. -Cindy Martin SATAN AND HIS FORCES Enemies! Where? What are they doing? All who begin the Christian walk encounter Satan and his power. Our studies began with Satan's original state, his fall, and his attempts to lead man into sin. We observed his continual conflict with truth, noting his tactics, char- acteristics, allies, and all that comprises his realm. We observed some of his accom- plishments, and methods by which he de- ceives humanity. As we investigate, it becomes evident that we face a formidable foe. Our enemy is very real, very busy, and utterly cruelg so we must beware, lest we underestimate or make light of his power. The power within the believer is greaterlthan that of our adversary, and can deliver us from his clutches. Satanic rule is one of titanic oppression, and its reward is indescribable torment. 27 We must diligently study. God's Word so we are not ignorant of his devices and succumb to his deception. -Nelson Torkelson PERSON AND WGRK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT Spirit of the living God, Fall afresh on me. This was our prayer as we entered this study, with the Word as our textbook and the Spirit as His own interpreter. We moved through the Old and New Testaments, observing His workings in the lives of men. In the Old Testament the Spirit is seen chiefly when leaders or prophets needed power for a specific task. In the New Test- ament era however, Jesus promised a Com- forter to take His place that would dwell within His people. ' A The initial arrival of the Spirit was ac- companiedby flames of fire and speaking in tongues. Today there is no longer any need for this, since the Church is estab- lished and proven. The Spirit works quiet- ly, but just as powerfully now as in the beginning. His comforting and loving per- sonality is seen in the lives of believers. The Spiritis place in the Godhead is to reveal the Father and Son to sincere seek- ers. Q As we studied the eternal Spirit, we became more aware of the wonderful place He fills and are grateful to the Son for sending Him into our lives. - Joyce Eshbach GRACE, FAITH AND WDRKS Grace is the unmerited favor of God, which hath appeared to allmen. It teaches us to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts, and to live soberly in this present evil world. Grace brings us salvation and is the source of faith. It comes by Jesus Christ. We need grace even after the new birth to sustain us through difficult experiences. We need to be looking diligently lest we fail of this grace. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seenf' Faith comes by hearing, by feeding on the Word, 28 by asking for it, and by the Spirit dwelling within. The objectives of our Christian faith are: God, Christ, and His Word. As we walk by faith, we receive many bless- ings. Our works are the result of faith, and by them we will be condemned or acquitted on the judgment day. -Daniel Stover But Gbdliness with contentment is' great gain. 1 ETERNAL ABSOLUTES In the midst of confusion, it is reassuring to know that we serve a God who is un- changeable and indisputable. Our God is three distinct personalities, yet but one God. The Father is God over us, the Son is God for us, and the Holy Spirit is God in us. Because God is eternal, His Word is also eternal, and is current for every age and culture. We believe the Word is inerrant in its original writings, and is the only infallible rule of faith and practice. Man is also an eternal being, in that while he was created, he will live eternally. Man was placed in the eternal stream of life, when God breathed into him the breath of life. Angels are also eternal beings. Satan as a fallen angel, is controlling the spirit of this world. Every soul that is won to Christ is a direct defeat to the devil, and a triumph to God. Despite the fact that the devil appears to be gaining' many victories, righteousness .will 'ultimately be vindicated. ' - Daryl Bair When we work with God, He takes the heaviest part of the load. . ' - f fl -343771?l?'-4 fTfi-141,13,x-gggj-,.-:A-r ., I , BIBLE AND SCIENCE The object of this study was to strengthen confidence in God and his Word by seeing that true science never contradicts the Bible. We do not question the truth of the Bible but accept it as the basis of true knowledge. When we discuss the Bible account of the Creation and the flood, in com- parison with the false theories of evolution, we could see that they are in no way com- patible. It was also pointed out that the widespread acceptance of evolution has done much to lower the morals and value of life in the people of the world. We discussed the miracles of the Bible, and the errors of men's natural explanations. Many other subjects and divisions of Science were discussed and unscriptural views of men were pointed out. .This study helped us to see that the wisdom of Godis Word supersedes all human knowledge. We are compelled to say with David, O Lord, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches. Psalm 104124. -Neil Baer SEcTloN Ill CHURCH I-llSToRY and MISSIONS MENNONITE CHURCH HISTGRY This course consisted of a survey of the Mennonite Church with emphasis on its beginning, persecution, growth, doctrine, and decline. Its beginning was the outgrowth of sin- cere study of the Scriptures in Switzerland and Holland. A restoration of the pure apostolic church doctrine, discipline, and fellowship was contended for. Almost immediately, intense persecution came which resulted in scattering the brethren to Russia and on to America. Historically, the doctrine of the Mennonite Church is that Biblical principles regulate every aspect of life. Significant areas are: speech, dress, business, social purity, rec- reation, education, worship, and nonpar- ticipation in politics and warfare. History shows that a compromise or deviation from any of these principles sets in motion a system of decline which climaxes in a loss of true spirituality. ' u The challenge for us today, is to real- istically face the threats to our faith, by implementing evangelical safeguards that will keep our doctrine, practice, and fellow- ship alive, healthy, and scriptural. -Mark Torkelson CHURCH EXTENSION God . . . hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ. II Corinthians 5:19b-20a. Every Christian is a representative of the King. Entrusted to him is the Gospel of salvation, the very message desperately needed by the perishing world. His re- sponsibility first is to personally embrace every aspect of Truth, then to proclaim it wherever he goes. In this class we noted the purpose and responsibilities of the church. We observed how the Church was extended during the apostolic era. The scriptural principles for outreach work were considered with their applications to the varied areas of church extension today. Every scriptural church is a mission. As such are obedient to Christ, Spirit- filled men are sent forth to new areas of witness. A church then is established with the same Biblical standards as the parent congregations. In its local community a church calls men from darkness, and nurtures them into disciples and pillars of the faith. This study challenged us to be totally committed in promoting the cause of Christ. - Charles Sweigart 29 We also studied stewardship of material SECTION IV - PRACTICAL STUDIES VICTORIOUS CHRISTIAN LIVING Victorious Christian Living is essential in living a life of holiness which is pleasing to God. Looking into God's Word we found much encouragement. Jesus used the Sword of the Spirit to overcome the devil, giving us an example of the medium through which we experience victory. Victory is possible only to those who receive Jesus as Saviour and Lord. We must renounce our former loyalties and choose new ones. A .requirement for victorious Christian living is to have faith and confidence in the power of the Word of God. We must allow the Holy Spirit to work through our lives. There is a great promise in Romans 8:13, If ye, through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. Much prayer with God is necessary to remain spiritually strong. As we see in the life of Job, he prayed and walked with God and victory was possible. With God's help it also is possible for each of us. A -Lucille Weaver l PRAYER LIFE Christians have an advantage over the world. They have the privilege of bringing any problem, large or small, to the Lord. One needs to put forth, effort to pray and have the right motives, if he is to re- ceive a blessing. Wrong attitudes toward someone can' make our prayer life inef- fective and meaningless. We need to be willing to leave our' needs with 'God and allow Him to answer as He sees best. Sometimes God might use us to answer our own prayers. If He asks this of us, we should be willing to obey. Asneach of us applies the principles and practical aspects we discovered in this study, we will come to anticipate our times of prayer. As these seasons become alive, 30 we will be drawn closer to our Master and sense His blessing in our own hearts, as well as in the lives of those for whom we pray. - Norman Whetzel STEWARDSHIP A good ,steward is one who increases the quality and value of his possessions. It is important to realize that God is the owner of our lives and earthly property. Ezekiel 18:4. We are only God's agents to carry out his work on earth. I Tithing was required in the 01d Testa- ment as a part of stewardship, but today we are called to give as the Lord hath prospered us. Giving was practiced by the early church as seen in I Corinthians 16:2. possessions which are given to us as a trust, and of which we are required to make the best use. When we are good stewards of our possessions, we are laying up treasures in heaven where they are not subject to ruin. We cannot expect the blessing of God on our lives if we misuse the possessions which have been entrusted to us. We are also stewards of our time. It is profitable to look at the many ways in which we spend our time. The Scriptures say we are to redeem the time because the days are evil. This is speaking ofbuy- ing up the opportunity and using our time for a worthwhile cause. May God grant us wisdom to properly use the many val- uables he has placed in our hands. - Carl Martin - p We need to talk to Goa' about men be- fore we can talk to men about God.

SONG LEADERSHIP This class proved to be a blessing to us who want to serve the Lord and the church by leading congregations or Chris- tian Day Schools in singing. We learned to beat the basic time pat- terns and get the pitch of a song by spend- ing time practicing during our class periods. We were instructed how to choose songs that are appropriate for the occasion as well as what type of song to use, whether a gospel song, which inspires the people, or a hymn that is directed to God. Possibly one of the most important con- cepts that was brought forth was to keep our minds on what we are singing and not over emphasize leading. I trust that after taking this course, we will be better fitted to serve our great God in this capacity. -Daniel Torkelson INTRODUCTION TO CHILD STUDY Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his re- wardf' Psalm 12723. A proper attitude toward children is necessary when studying or teaching them. We must recognize that they are blessings from God, and have genuine love for them if we are going to lead them right. We viewed many practical areas, some of which are: The Child and His Questions, The Responsibility of the Child, Guarding the Childis Environment, and the Disciplin- ary Needs of a Child. We also discussed the Training of the Child, much of which is done unconsciously. Sunday Schools, Bible Schools, and Christian Day Schools are helpful aids in the proper training of children. It was emphasized repeatedly that we need to have a planned method in deal- lng with children. Every child is different, but one thing we need to keep in mind is that God's Word has the answer to every problem, even in child training. -James Sensenig CHRISTIAN WRITING A drop of ink can make a million think. This is true, for a written message is force- ful. Men speak and their message is often lightly esteemed, but a printed message is more readily accepted, for it has author- ity. Before this can be experienced, the mind behind the pen must think, as writing is an exacting work. It calls for consecrated, concerned individuals who are willing to spend much time and energy in this service. God, who approves and commands writing, uses this mighty sword to spread and pre- serve His message. ' Our Christian Writing class has proven to be valuable to each one of us as we learned by sharing together. We reviewed grammar and helpful instructions for writing paragraphs, articles, short stories, and poems. We feel that we will profit far more as we accept the challenge of applying these helps in writing and learning from the mistakes of others. We continue to seek God's grace as we labor to be used of Him. Our desire is that we might bring honor and glory to His name as we write. -Rebecca Ebersole YOUTH PROBLEMS Youth is a time of preparation for future use in God's service. The aim of this class was to aid us in this preparation. We all want to know what Godls will is. In a way it would be nice if God would plainly tell each of us what we are to do, if and who we should marry, where we should live, etc. Such a desire stems from a lack of patience to wait for the Lord to reveal his will. If we truly want to know and do God's will, we can find the satis- factory answer. In every matter we must obey the Bible and have a vital prayer life. The counsel and advice of brethren in the church is very helpful. If what we are doing today is God's will, we should be satisfied, and patiently wait for Him to reveal His plan for our future. Consideration was given to courtship and preparation for marriage. This is an area that brings dangers and challenges, but as we seek the Lord's will and follow scriptural Christian practices, great bless- 31 ings will result. We observed that the way we take our place in our homes now is a good indication of how we will fulfill our responsibility after marriage. If we learn to seek first the kingdom of God now, it will be easier in later life also. -John Siegrist PERSONAL EVANGELISM Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee? We realize that evangelism is not merely helping people to reform, but leading them to the transformation experience. In order to bring others to Christ, we must first have experienced salvation our- selves. Jesus Christ is the supreme example of a personal worker. He spoke to people personally as each opportunity confronted Him. His disciples were won by the personal appeal. . ' In preaching, the message may be shifted to someone else, but in personal contact there can be no question as to who is meant. We can say as Nathan said to David, Thou art the man? We will find that as we engage in this kind of work, it will be a means of strength- ening our own faith. It is worth much to know that we need not meet our Saviour empty-handed. Lead me to some soul today, Oh, teach me, Lord, just what to say. -Abram Krahn RUDIMENTS OF MUSIC Sing forth the honor of his name: make his praise glorious. Psalm 66:2. In this interesting' class, we undertook to learn the basic rules and principles of music. One of the first things we discovered was that a tone has four properties: length, pitch, power, and quality. There are also three departments of music: Melodics, rhythmics, and dynamics. 32 5- .5111 11- '-y--.::-1-qi. -,H ,-....,, -.f---'-ff g--1.- .11-1:44 .iXT,: gi ' , vw-2 12-'-S- iff-vga'.,'R---v2f'jpg,'.L:'g ' 'A I- V-T33 311 , 1' '-e-irrvf-e Azria.. . -f--A .- f .- -.1 - . , ,, . . . , ,. , . , . . : ,Q Y F H ' , .

The number of flats or sharps in a key signature designates the key in which a song is to be sung. We also learned how many beats or pulsations are in a measure and which note gets the accent. We learned the meanj ing of different signs and words used in music. Sometimes we learned new songs by first singing the notes. I trust that those of us who have taken this class.will benefit by it, and thereby be able to sing a more perfect praisew to the One who gave us our voices. -Roseann Deiter - THE CHRISTIAN HOME As we view the deterioration of homes in society around us, it causes us to dili- gently search the Word for guidelines in building the Christian home. I Essentials for building the Christian home are: 1. Mature individuals, being fully sub- mitted to the Lord in choosing a life companion. 2. Husband and wife finding their place in God's order of divine headship. 3. Having a proper concept of God's purpose for children in the home, realizing that children are an heritage of the Lord. 4. Recognizing the responsibility that parents have in teaching and train- ing children in the way of the Lord. 5. Safe guarding the home against worldly influences, that tend to destroy many homes. In searching the Scripture, we notice a great contrast in the various homes. Noah's family had the qualities 'of a godly home. Lotas family revealed the character- istics which cause many failures in the home. - I Only as our homes are Christcentered can they make their contribution to the church and society. -Roy Zimmerman TYPING Typing class met four times a week in the dining room. We followed the lessons in the book, Typing Made Simple. Our teacher helped us with our difficulties and pointed out our mistakes. She also timed us to test our speed and skill. Typing is a worthwhile skill to acquire, It is not only valuable for office work, but also as an aid in writing stories or teach- ing school. Learning to type requires much practice, and helps us to grow in the areas of patience and perseverance. Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might. Ecclesiastes 9:1Oa. -Lorrain Leinbach PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING How can I understand except some man should guide me? I What is teaching? It is causing one to know and showing them how to do. Our class discovered we are all teachers, formal or informal. In a formal setting it is essential that the Christian teacher places supreme reliance upon the finality of Godis Word. The Christian teacher must have a genuine experience with God and be Spirit led. Instead of merely teaching, he is dealing with souls of eternal value. , . Since the techniques of teaching reflect on our knowledge of the learning process, we attempted to obtain a more thorough understanding of it. This process is not complete until what is taught is expressed by the pupil. .Other areas of study included: tech- niques of teaching, preparation and pro- cedure, and mistakes and problems en- countered. As we teach, We need to continually keep our eyes on the Master teacher, who has left the perfect example for us to follow. -Ruby Witmer METHODS OF BIBLE STUDY The supremely important factor in Bible study is proper spiritual conditioning. Our approach to it is also important and must be different than to any other book. ' We dare not approach it critically but with a readiness to believe and practice its precepts. God has ordained that spiritual things must enter the mind through the heart, therefore, we must love them be- fore we can understand them. To find the interpretation of a given passage, we first try to ascertain and then express the exact meaning God intended. God is faithful to illuminate our hearts by the Holy Spirit, giving us understanding of the truths hidden in His Word. The purpose motivating the revelation of Holy Writ was to show us how to be saved and live like saved people.- Viewing the Bible first as a whole, then breaking it down into smaller units, will increase one's appreciation for it. May we ever keep in mind that studying the Word of God makes us personally responsible to apply it to our lives. -David Meck EXTRA CURRSICULAR ACTIVITIES REVIVAL MEETINGS We were impressed again with the power Of God's Word, as it worked in the hearts Of the student body and others who sat under its sound in our revival meetings. It truly works as a hammer, to break down the barriers and reservations we may have in our hearts against the truth. How thankful we can be that God is longsuffer- ing and merciful, and that He calls us from a world of turmoil and unrest into the blessed sunshine of His perfect peace- which peace the world cannot comprehend. And the work of righteousness shall be peaceg and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever. Isaish 32:17. May we each go forward putting into 33 practice what we have learned, claiming the promises of God which will never fail, and ever striving to bring others into the glorious liberty of the gospel of Jesus Christ, our precious Saviour, and wonder- ful Lord. -Hope Landis CHRISTIAN SERVICE PROGRAM The Christian Service Program was held February 1, 2, 1975. Before we can begin our Christian service, we need the right kind of motivation. Our basic stimulation comes from the Spirit. As the Spirit moves us to service, we will recognize the need of lost souls around us, and as opportun- ities for service present themselves, we will be laborers with God. Nonresistance is also a part of God's plan for his people. During the Civil War there were several Mennonite brethren drafted into the army. When brought be- fore the officers because of their nonpar- ticipation in the battle, they gave testimony to their belief. This example gives us a glimpse of the brotherhood successfully battling the onslaughts of the enemy during that period. Today we are not faced in the sarne way on this issue, but nonresistance reaches into everyday life. Gur testimony can go forth in these small areas as well as in the .more prominent ones. Jesus said in iMark 14, 4'She hath done what she couldf' -Lucinda Bauman i-1 , GIRLS' DORM LIFE At six o'clock our day begins by spending fifteen minutes with our Friend and Guide. Then Brother Ben's voice comes over the intercom, giving us a verse for the day. The rising bell puts the dorm into action. Some sleepily make their beds while others rush for the bathroom. During the day dorm life quiets down, but often there are discussions which will be cherished for a long time. After the close of study hour in the evening, there is a buzz of activity getting ready for bed and sharing our snacks. Quiet-time bell rings, and we again have the privilege of coming to God in Bible reading and prayer. 34 We have fond memories of lying in bed after lights out, listening to the boys sing- ing for us from their dorm. As a whole I think dorm life has been very beneficial to us. - J erlene Brandt ... i--i- Prayer is the slender nerve that moves the muscle of ommpotence. 1 . BOYS' DORM LIFE Day begins with Bible reading and prayer. Each verse is a precious gem. Very important 'is this time of communion. Of Thee, 0 Lord, do we seek true wisdom, To guide our minds throughout each day, In thoughts that produce right actions. On Thee do we rely, for all our strength, Not for selfish motives, but in Thy service. So our day, also, ends in the sweet fellow- ship of Thy Word. Dorm life is filled with lively talk, In subjects about the daily cares of life, as well as the . Spiritual subjects in which we seek to be more like . Christ, the perfect example for all. Useless discussions avail nothing. So ever let our speech be pure and up- building, Serving to edify our brethren, In challenging our faith and practice by the Word. Never will we be rash, because we've learned our b Speech can help or hinder our brother. Doing the daily duties of life. Using the precious time God has given To clean and wash, as well as studypour , lessons. ' In honor preferring one another, lest we become selfish. Each task to faithfully perform, knowing our Sacrifice and service. is for God's glory. -James Landis - Show me Thy ways, O Lordg teach me Thy paths. EXTENSION COMMITTEE O give thanks unto the Lord call upon His name make known His deeds among the people Sing unto him sing psalms unto Him Talk ye of all His wondrous works. Psalm 10511, 2. In these words, the Psalmist of old ex presses the fundamental attitude of every believer today. Each Christian has an in ner desire to be used of God to relate the knowledge of His kingdom to others. The Extension Committee endeavored to organize the collective efforts of the REPOSE Bear not a single care thyself One is oo much for thee The work IS Mine and Mine alone Thy work to rest in Me Selected THE COOKS' CORNER And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger: and he that believeth on me shall never thirstf' 66 ' .

Planning the distribution of invitations to revival meetings and closing programs was our responsibility. We also arranged and scheduled cottage meetings, and visits to local nursing homes. As we followed the leading of our Lord in this work, we are confident that the meditations, testimonies, and songs of worship and praise, have warmly influenced many souls toward the Truth. -William Sch-ueler CHORUS Sing praises unto the Lordf' One of the most interesting and blessed experiences here at Bible School, was when all students assembled in the chapel to lift their voices in praise to the Lord. This class period lasted from 10:20 to 11:10 each morning, and was 'known as Chorus From the Christian Hymnary we learned new songs, and sang old favorites. We learned to blend our voices in harmony, and sincerely express our joys and sorrows to God in the words of the composition. Many times the words of the songwriter reflect his emotions. Because he was human, as we are, we could share this with him. Our goal in this class was to help us praise the Lord more effectively together, and to realize the value of group singing. We appreciated the time taken on the part of our music directors in assisting us to grasp these values, as we participated during these periods. -Joseph Strubhar I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. . The basic purpose of the Bible School is to provide spiritual nourishment, which is of utmost importance. Nevertheless, as we all realize, we do need natural food as well. We cooks have endeavored to prepare the meals to satisfy these needs. The Lord supplied us with plenty of food. We appreciated the many donations that were brought. At times food was given that just filled the need at the right time. As I pondered the Lordls provisions, Isaiah 65:24 came to my mind. And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer: and while they are yet speaking, I will hearf' It has been a pleasure to serve in this way even though it was a new experience for some of us. May the Lord receive all the honor and glory. -Evelyn Kropf BIBLE READING AND PRAYER In this period each afternoon we read a portion of God's Word. Blessed is he that readeth. , Revelation 1:3a. Each student stands and reads a sen- tence loud enough for everyone to hear and without making any mistakes. If he makes a mistake, he is asked to reread it correctly. An example would be I Cor- inthians 7:23. Ye are bought with a price: be ye not the servants of men? By omitting the little word not, the sense of the verse is completely changed. n After a period of reading we spend time in prayer. We know that, The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much? James 5:16b. ' It refreshes us spiritually and physically to go through the remainder of the day. -Dorothy Delph 35 BIBLE SCHOOL ROSTER FIRST THREE WEEK STUDENTS AS' PAGE -1'4'- Upper Picture ROW 1: ' Bonnie Martin Rebecca Ebersole Donna Plank Cindy Martin Linda Martin ROW 2: P Stephen Zehr ' John Slaymaker flst SL 4th 3 weeksj Lucille Weaver Amy Martin Mark Lewis Earl Hursh ROW 3: John Siegrist Vernon Martin Vern Martin Mark Torkelson Virgil Gehman 15 PAGE -1:-4P- Middle Picture ROW 1: .
