In one of the missionary tracts put out by the Overseas Missionary Fellcvship, it is pointed out that 'so few people are willing to gather in small groups to pray," This sounds tragic, because we all know that nothing can really be accomplished for God except through prayer,
Due to this lack of prayer interest especially in support of missionaries and their work, the majority of the people on every continent today are still strangers to the Gospel of Christ, In Asia, for example, only a small pereent of the population is Christian after more than a century of missionary work.

To the Editor:
When false doctrine and teaching is warned against in the New Testament, these warnings apply to conduct as often as to intellectual assent to truth. Thus Machen defined Christianity as "a way of life founded upon a message,"
Too often today, however, Scripture is applied in defense of orthodox "belief", but is not applied to the wide spread defection from orthodox conduct in the evangelical churches.
Now, the only truly orthodox belief is that which results in orthodox living. Calivn maintained that "when the mind is effected as it ought, it cannot but give vent to itself in external manifestation," thus recognizing that faith and works, belief and
action, are related as cause and effect.
If cur living is not orthodox, which is the implication of the present call for "revival" among evangelical leaders, it follows that our beliefs are not truly orthodox either. The "revival" will come only when and if our beliefs change so as to change our conduct.
Failing to recognize this, many Bible schools and Christian colleges do not encourage true thinking, but merely require that the student intellectually assent to the prescribed dogmas of their
"orthodoxy(Perhaps thev do not aven require "intellectual assent," but rather only surface conformity to accepted tradition). In any event, the big questions are neither asked nor answered.
It is equally tragic, that in such a situation the sophisticated hypocrite can easily "play Christian" with regard to externals, often very aptly, while the less sophisticated sinner, less skilled in his "coverup", may receive more than his fair share of blame and ill repute.
