the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a full- 

 grown man unto the measure of the stature of 

 the fullness of Christ.&quot; That was &quot;the school of 

 the Apostles.&quot; It is to the same school that we 

 now make our way in order that with them, and 

 through them, we may learn of the mind and will 

 of Jesus Christ concerning that humanity &quot;Whose 

 nature He took upon Him.&quot; 

 ^ ur sources f information are: 



1. The Gospels. 



2. The Acts. 



3. The Revelation. 



^e teaching derived from these three sources 

 corresponds to the three spheres of missionary 

 zeal. 



1. The Gospels the school of 

 instruction. 



2. The Acts the school of the 

 message. 



*3. The Revelation the school of 

 vision. 



Or, once more and to state our subject in a 

 slightly different way: 



1. The training of the missionary as described 

 in the Gospels. 



2. The application of that training: In the 

 winning of converts as portrayed in the Book of 

 Acts. 



3. The vision of the end, as seen in the gather 

 ing of the nations into that city, whose light is 

 the glory of God, and the lamp whereof is the 

 Lamb.

*It is unnecessary, for our present purpose, to deal with the Epistles 

 which are the analysis, amplification and application of the 

 Missionary Message.
