Preparation for this added re-
sponsibility should be made now.
IN order TO be of the very high
est service in meeting this re-
sponsibility. a whole-hearted
surrender to God should be
made by each one claiming to
be a follower OF the Christ. Alb
solute dedication of the life In
active service for our great, low
ing Master Is needed. It's an
undeniable fact that the weak
ness of each individual life Is
largely due to a wrong concep-
ton of what It really means TO
be a Christian.
