RELIGION IN BOOKS
BY ROY L. TAwEs

JEWELS OF PROMISE, by War
rem M. Seay. Broadman Press,
Nashville. STA book in the pop
ular and helpful series of Broad
man Sermons. These sermons 'are
an earnest attempt to apply in the
name of Christ the balm of Gilead'
to wounded and stricken souls, and
to comfort the people of God"
What are the precious promises Of
the Bible for troubled lives? The
author points them out with conf
dence. He believes strongly in
much prayer, and the available
truths of past experience. These
promises are realized before the
Throne of Grace, and in the daily
presence of God. AS others have
come to great victory under Di-
vine Guidance, we too are assured |
of triumph. There is a shout in the |
authors soul for the conquest of |
Christ and His Church, and the |
total defeat of Satan. Many illus
trations are rightly used, and will |
be appreciated by the reader.
After the battle of Manassas,
Captain Imboden called upon
Stonewall Jackson, who was Sc
verely wounded. How is it, Cen
eral,' asked the Captain, 'you can
keep so cool in such a storm of
shell and bullets? Jackson re-
piled in low and earnest tones,
Captain, my religious beliefs teach
me to feel as safe in battle as in
bed" These sermons cheer and
challenge the Soldiers of the Cross
in the conflicts of this life.
