To be uninformed or misinformed, is to be ill-equipped for the present struggle.

One of these major theories is that God is entirely responsible for man's salvation and the man himself can contribute nothing toward it. The other main theory is that man is responsible for accepting or rejecting the salvation that God offers. Between these …

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

Church history has revealed that the very existence and influence of a given religious organization has depended largely upon the force and efficiency of its educational system. In the final analysis, the upward and increasing tread to liberalism and modernism in this century has been a direct result of an efficient educational program.

In both cases, effective education has been brought to pass through effective teaching; …
