Preface

This Handbook is a twin volume to " How to Study the Life of Christ." Like that volume it has grown out of the author's many years of happy work with young men.

With devout thankfulness for the kindly and continued welcome given the former volume, this book is sent forth with ^he earnest prayer that it also may prove a helpful guide to all who sincerely desire to understand the words of Him, who is our Light, our Way, and our Truth.
