Profitable Things Part 9, By Alfred P Gibbs

Misc. Writings by Alfred P. Gibbs. There are 24 parts to these recordings.  It intends to direct us in learning things that God considers profitable. These articles should be conducive to the deepening of spiritual life, the control of Christian conduct, and the strengthening of our personal testimony. While each is complete, all articles are complementary to the others; to miss one is to miss an important link in the chain. Introduction It will surely be conceded that we are living in a world characterized very largely by materialism and governed by a mercenary spirit. It is a day of “big business,” and of huge combines which employ thousands of workers, each of whom is carefully selected, trained and paid to contribute his part to the smooth and efficient functioning of the whole, so that the employer will be able to run his business on a profitable basis. Thus the words, “profit and loss,” play a large part in the councils governing the management of these combines, for it goes without saying that no business can operate, for long, at a loss.
