  • The Story of the Bible
    Printed for LOGOS PUBLICATIONS 632 Burbridge Road, West Beach, South Australia 5024 by Eureka Press, he Story of the Bible A detailed exposition of the Bible discussed within the family circle. The children of the Phillips family gather with their parents for a daily reading of the Bible — an important part of their lives. Then they discuss together the remarkable events of the greatest Book in all the world. SJsraeVs Solden Opportunity third volume of °ur Story of the Bible introduces us to the golden age of Israel's y; to the time when the kingdom was ruled by David and Solomon to the admiration of other nations. Unfortunately for Israel (though not for Gentiles — see Rom. 11:12-23) it did not retain this glory, but, turning aside from the way of Yahweh, it experienced distress. The previously united kingdom was divided, and because of constant alternating periods of apostasy, the record is one of sunshine and cloud, of victory and defeat, of faithful obedience and ungrateful wickedness. National sin brought national disgrace and sad- ness. This erupted into civil war and ultimately cap- tivity. The original glory was obscured in the smoke of destruction: Jerusalem and the Temple were destroyed, and Israel taken captive by the Gentiles. Nevertheless there were many men and women of outstanding faith during that period whose names are recorded in the Book of Life; and many incidents of great importance and outstanding interest. These all have a message for us. The apostle Paul wrote: "Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples; and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

  • Arthur S. Maxwell, 1896-1970 See SIXTY YEARS with GOD, Page 3 Children Arotnd the World Loved to Sit in Uncle Arthur's Lap
    JANUARY, 1971 50c Arthur S. Maxwell, 1896-1970 See SIXTY YEARS WITH GOD, Page 3 Children arotnd the world loved to sit in Uncle Arthur's lap. BY C. MERVYN MAXWELL Sixty Years WITH GOD "Destiny will preserve me until my job is done!" This buoyant declaration of faith in God was Arthur Maxwell's confident assurance to concerned friends last August as he set out for Europe on a strenuous tour to promote the distribution of gospel literature. Earlier in the year he had retired from his thirty-four- year editorship of Signs of the Times and offered himself for service wherever his church might need him around the world. He returned home in all his usual vigor, dictated hun- dreds of letters, and completed his 112th book in less than a month. Then sudden illness struck. Within a week—as the sun was setting at the beginning of the Sabbath—he fell asleep. Arthur Stanley Maxwell was born on January 14, 1896, in London, England, and passed to his rest on November 13, 1970, in Mountain View, California, at the age of sev- enty-four years and ten months. On May 3, 1917, he was married to Rachel Elizabeth Joyce, and during the course of their years together four < sons and two daughters entered their home. Two years after • their golden wedding anniversary Rachel preceded him in death on July 23, 1969. • Having commenced his life at the close of the Victorian era, young Arthur Maxwell was early impressed by a wall- size map of the British Empire and by the oak-framed por- z • traits of Roman emperors which his mother had hung all • about the house.
