Preface Publisher's Preface

We have pleasure in presenting in book form the addresses delivered in the lectureship of Abilene Christian College for February, 1940. The importance of the subjects for discussion, the number of addresses and the excellent treatment by the speakers all contribute to making this book not inferior to any of the volumes that have been published in the past. The men who delivered these lectures are well and favorably known in the brotherhood of the churches of Christ as capable leaders and careful students of the Bible. We pass this volume on to the reader with the hope and confidence that it will serve some useful purpose in the field of religious literature. Our thanks and appreciation are hereby expressed for the promptness with which the various speakers placed in our hands the manuscripts which has, enabled us to have the book ready within thirty days from the time the lectures were delivered.
