N . ., 2 The Bible N This book contains the mind of God, the state of man, the way of salvation, the doom of sinners and the happiness of be- lievers. Its doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding, its histories are true, and its decisions areilnmutable. Read it to be wise, believe it to be safe, practice it to be holy. It con- tains light to direct you, food to support you, and comfort to cheer you. I t is a traveler,s map, the pilgrimls staff, the pilot's compass, the soldier's sword, and the Christian's charter. Here paradise is restored, heaven opened and the gates of hell disclosed. Christ is its grand subject, our good its design and the glory of God its end. I t should the memory, rule the heart, and guide the feet. Read it slowly, frequently, prayerfully. lt is a mine of wealth, a paradise of glory and a river of pleasure. I t is given you in life, will be opened in judgment and be remembered forever. It involves the highest responsibility, will reward the highest labor and condemn all who trifle with its sacred contents. -Selected

FRANK W. SM1'1'H, President R. BRYANT MITCHELL, Dean Um Zzemliae Stagg The executive staff of O.B .I . is the rudder that channels the energies and abilities of the students toward God's will for their lives. In order to accomplish this end, the individual members of the faculty must be filled with the Spirit and led by God into this avenue of service. They must know by experience the reality and power of the Gospel and realize the potential importance of each student to the ministry. We believe that our teaching stag meets these requirements and are con- fident of God,s plan for the future. -Don Smith
