The Value of Bible Studies To see and to experience the values of Bible Studies, one must behold the life of Christ. He is the shining example of God’s love. When men and women came under the influence of His love, “all their powers were drawn out, their emotional life exalted, and all the uses of the body were refined.” Love is creative and re¬ generative. He did not catalogue the virtues one by one. Whatever He said He clarified by qualities in life. He sought the quality of eternal rightness in the ordinary person. He touched life and only life can touch life. He brought the presence of God into the ordinary man. We must learn to communicate to others the sense of the presence of God. That can only come to pass when the presence of God is a living reality to us. When the soul is ready, then the Eternal breaks through and the inner light begins to shine. That can come through the reading of the Bible. —H. H. Redekop. “Give Unto the Lord the Glory Due Unto His Name.”—Ps. 96:8. A Glorious Lord has most Gloriously been experienced and proclaimed by a Glory-Seeking and Glory-Receiving body of His children for the purpose of Glory due unto His name. Such is the testimony of over one hundred saved lives after a six-months-long noble task of searching the Scriptures At this time we come before God with praise and thanksgiving, and our hearts go forth in gratitude and adora¬ tion upon the magnitude of His glory as demon¬ strated before our eyes, and the blessings of His love which “is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost.” Our prayer is to the end that His Presence might ever go before us, penetrating every faculty of the soul, and every department of the school, that His Glory might be mirrored in and radiated by every effort of each individual, as well as by the sum-total utility of The Winkler Bible School! —G. D. Pries. Page 6

“But God, who is rich in mercy . . . hath quickened us together with Christ . . . and hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.”—Eph. 2:4-6. This is our rightful place, to be “seated” in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, and sit still there. But how few there are who make it their actual experience! How few, indeed think that it is possible for them to “sit still” in these heavenly places in the everyday life of a world so full of turmoil as this. However, this is the portion of a group of Christian Young People who are attending “Peniel.” With the patriarch Jacob they are daily awaiting God’s blessing and guidance. “I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.” Genesis 32:26. With the chorus writer we frequently hear them sing: I’ve a longing in my heart for Jesus, I’ve a longing in my heart to see His face; I am w r eary—Oh so weary, of travelling here below, I’ve a longing in my heart for Him. —George Dyck.
