scnally prepared for their adventure by Miss Starnes, who
accompanies them to the churches.
This Youth Revival Team is a great blessing to the church
es as is shown by the fact that ninety-three decisions were
made last year. This year, since al] the churches have not been
visited, the results are not complete. The Team serves as a
"laboratory for Christian service” to the many young people
who participate. It also emphasizes Christian Education in
the Churches and many young people decide to go to our
Christian colleges as a result of this emphasis. President El
liott often receives letters from the pastors of churches visited
by the team, expressing a deep appreciation of the work carried
on by the team under the guidance of Miss Starnes.
Christianity Vs. Communism
By RICHARD PLYLER
Today we are faced with two philosophies of life, Christian
ity and Communinism. The philosophy of Christianity stand
ing for that which is all good, and the philosophy of Commun
ism standing for that whic his all bad. Let us see why Christ
ianity is the better of the two philosophies.
Christianity is a body of believers in Christ Jesus, Redeeem-
er and Savious of the world, believing that He died for the sins
of man and that His death upon the Cross set man right with
God once again. That if man believes upon Jesus as the only
Begotten Son of God, he is forgiven of his sins and once again
comes into fellowship with God for which he was created
Christianity says that each man is important, that each man as
an individual has the right to eternal salvation and eternal life
through Christ Jesus. Christianity says that each man has
the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness upon
which our country is founded.
Communism on the other hand says that the individual is
not important and that all things should go together for the
betterment of the state. Communism denies the existance of
God and the deity of Jesus Christ. Communism says that man
does not have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happi
ness, and is not an individual but rather a machine of the
state. Communism advocates that democracy and religion can
have no part m a communistic state, which is to be governed
by a totalitarian dictatorship.
In our country today there are people who would advocate
and do advocate the overthrow of our own government, and thev
want to set up a government under communism with a totalitar-
lan state. Communism is fighting our way of life through every
means possible that will give their cause headway
On the other hand, we have the Christians who are tryins
to get people to see the need of God, and to see eternal salva-
