In studying the life of any figure in history it is important to be as- sured of the reliability of the sources of information. ;The sources con- cerning the life and times of Jesus are the Gospels and a few references in the Epistles. Matthew and John as apostles were eye-witnesses of the events which they record. It is believed that Mark gained much of his information from his uncle Peter who also was an apostle and an eye- Luke, the physician, be- came a, follower after the events of the life of Christ hdd taken place but he went back to original sources for his information. He journeyed with Paul to whom Jesus appeared on the way to Damascus. These men did not assume to relate all that was known of Jesus. John says, "There are "also many other things which Jesus did." The writings of these men con- cerning Jesus were received by the early church of which many had also been eye-witnesses., Copies of manuscripts were made and distributed throughout the church in the succeeding centuries, They were called "Holy Scriptures" or "Holy Writings," not only because they were believed to be true but also because they were held to be written under Divine inspiration.

He not only believed that Jesus was the Christ, the Son of iGod, but he received life, eternal life, through His name. We challenge the un- believer to. thoughtfully read the story of Jesus as recorded in the Gospels. How Can 1? by Anne Ashley Q. How can I clean aud whiten piano keys? A.
