Two Men, Two Acts, Two Results. By J. A. Youngberg. Fundamental Truth Publishers, Findlay, Ohio. 161 pp. $1.00.

Mr. Youngberg is a Bible student and teacher of many years’ experience, and in this his first volume he has gathered up the essentials and presented the structure of that marvelous bit of revealed truth which the Apostle Paul styled “My gospel.” This being the heart of Christianity and the theme of this book being presented in the clearest and most accurate terms, the volume cannot be commended too highly. It should be a handbook for advanced Bible classes, a textbook for Bible schools, and the field of study for every preacher and soul-winner who desires to be informed respecting the truth he is appointed to proclaim.

The precise scope of the book is disclosed in the title, Two Men, Adam and Christ; Two Acts, disobedience and obedience; Two Results, condemnation and justification.

God Speaks Again in Palestine. By P. N. Sigler. Modmir Publishing Co., Reibold Bldg., Dayton, Ohio. 236 pp. $2.00.

In the person of the author of this book another layman steps far to the front in leadership respecting vital truth. No issue is more determining in the field of Biblical prophecy than the present estate of the Jew in relation to Palestine. Mr. P. N. Sigler-a practicing attorney of Dayton, Ohio, and a member of the American and state bar associations, as well as author of note-has written an authoritative treatise on the outworking of the divine purpose concerning the Jew and his God-covenanted country.

The chapter headings are as follows: Redemption through the world war; Under the mandate of Great Britain; Discoveries at the Dead Sea; Arabian Desert gives up its oil; Restoration of the soil; Progress and Prosperity; Prophecy and Promise fulfilled; Scriptural truth confirmed.

The attention of every earnest Christian is called emphatically to this exceptional work in the field of God’s greatest sign-the Jew.
