Fifty Years With The Review and Herald

BY HARRY MOYLE TIPPETT, Associate Book Editor, Review and Herald Publishing Association On a recent Friday evening I took time to read the then current issue of the Review and Herald from cover to cover. It was a most rewarding experience. My bedside prayer was more fervent because of the mental and spiritual glow my two or three hours with "the General Church Paper of the Seventh-day Adventists" had given me. While reading its various articles, editorials, field reports, and news items, I was carried back fifty years in memory to those lonesome Sabbath afternoons when as an isolated new believer in the truth of the Second Ad- vent of Christ I would be comforted and inspired by reading in the Advent Review and Sabbath Herald the story of the advance of the message in all the world. The lead article in the recent issue recalled the romance of our first mission ship, The Pitcairn, and our pioneer work in and the South Pacific. I smiled with happy reminiscences as I thought of the author, Walter R. Beach, now secretary of the General Conference, off on another extended global trip, this time to counsel with and cheer our leaders in the lands "down under." A half century ago Walter and I sat in the same Greek class at Walla Walla College under Winifred Holmden. Adlai Esteb, and other present leaders of the Advent Movement, also were members of that class. How up to date our present Review is was revealed in that inspiring appeal by John Hancock, one of our General Conference youth leaders, in his article titled "Bring Us Together," based on the placarded plea of a teen-age girl during the recent Presidential campaign of President Richard Marry Moyle Tippett Nixon. It was a vibrant, ringing message to the church to heed one of the last counsels of the messenger of the Lord to His people, "Press together, press together." I read with absorbing interest the article by Dr. Siegfried Horn telling of our Adventist expedition explor- ing and excavating ancient Heshbon, capital of old Sihon of the Amorites. The "fishpools of Heshbon," spok- en of romantically by Solomon, have disappeared in the dust of many centuries, but how thrilling to think that NOTE: Elder Tippett has been writing for this Adventist picks and shovels are uncovering hundreds denomination for many years and is still con- of artifacts of that vanished generation. tributing through the pages of the Review and The history of our mission's beginnings still Herald.

A Thrilling Baptism

By J. L. DITTBERNER, President, Northern Union Conference

Of the many responsibilities, privileges, and duties that pertain to the gospel ministry, no doubt that of baptizing people into Christ and His church is the most rewarding. A baptism is a joyful experience not only to the minister but the entire church, and especially to those who have had a part in bringing the message to those being baptized. It is usually the result of the influence and work of several people that brings individuals to a decision. Sometimes these influences are effected in a quiet, unnoticed way. The Spirit of God uses people and the printed page to bring truth to those who are looking for light. A few weeks ago it was my privilege to witness a beautiful baptism in one of our churches here in the Northern Union. Just before baptizing one of the candidates, the pastor made the follow- ing remark. "It isn't often that a minister has the privilege of baptizing someone who has come to a full knowledge of the truth without personal effort on the part of the minister. But this young wom- an has come to a complete understanding and acceptance of the message through the Bible Corre- spondence lessons of Faith for Today." This statement was of interest to me so I visited with this person after the service. She said that in her private reading of the Bible she noticed that the practice of Sunday observance was not in harmony with the Bible teaching regarding the seventh-day Sabbath. Later on, as a result of viewing Faith for Today on television, she enrolled in their Bible Correspondence Course. From these lessons she learned more about the Bible and the true Sabbath. Upon moving to Minot to attend college, she 5' looked up the Seventh-day Adventist church and attended the Sabbath service. On this first visit it just so happened that the evangelist was preaching his last sermon in an evangelistic series. At the close of the sermon an invitation was given for people to indicate their interest in baptism. This visitor re- 5' sponded to the call. When the pastor visited her he found that she had accepted all the teachings of the church and was ready for baptism as a result of the Faith for Today Bible Course. We never know what will bear fruit. Therefore, we must support and use every means possible to spread the message. Surely the radio and TV programs are bearing a tremendous witness.
