The Bible is filled with
nuggets from the "Promise
-Mines." These promise mines
are as deep as. Man's need; as
high as .heaven; as vast as eter-
nity and as rich as God Him-
self. There are certain con-
ditions necessary to successful
mining. Thus, too, with God's

registered by faith, and the
mine is ours by inheritance, but
it must be "worked." The
cheques must be presented; the -
promises appropriated. They
have been tested and• proven.

'Twice since the end of the

Hungary has procuced and
sent 5,000 Hungarian Bibles to
Slovakia. In both cases the
paper was given by the United

contribution to pay for the .
cost of the production of these
5,000 :Bibles, the import of
which ' into, Czechoslovakia is
made possible by a lee
granted by the State.
