LIVING FOUNTAINS OR BROKEN CISTERNS
By E. A. Sutherland
An Educational Problem for Protestants,
By Prof. E. A. Sutherland. This is a book which all should read and possess. Now, as never before, we need to understand the true science of education. If we fail to understand this, we shall never have a place in the kingdom of God. “Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns” is a work that deals with the true science of education, giving a history of the two systems of education, and showing that the cause of the failure and apostasy of Israel, the early church, the Reformers, and modern Protestants, and also the weakness of the remnant church, can be traced to no other source, and accounted for on no other grounds, than the pagan methods and wrong principles of education instilled into the minds of the children and youth of the past ages and present generation. If you would know how to avoid making the mistakes thousands of others have made in the education and training of your children, secure a copy of “Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns,” and read, and ponder, and practice its teachings. Here is what two of our ministers say concerning the book:— Review and Herald Pub. Co.,
Battle Creek, Mich. BOWLING GREEN, KY., July 30, 1900. DEAR BRETHREN: I have just finished reading “Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns,” and I can not speak too highly of the book. Books have been multiplied among our people, many of them bringing out the same thoughts already presented in other works; but this is not so with “Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns.” The author has taken up a new subject, untouched by any of our other writers—a subject which the book demonstrates to be second to no other. In fact, it is the all-important subject for this time; for it is the life of the Third Angel’s Message. It deals with a living issue, and one which every true Protestant must soon recognize and accept, or be swallowed up in the gulf of “human reason,” and be numbered with “all the world” that shall “wonder after the beast.” “Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns” should be studied by every educator in the land. This means every father and mother, as well as teachers and preachers and all that expect to become such. May God bless it in its mission. Your brother worker, W. J. STONE, Pres. Tenn. Riv. Conf. BETHEL, WIS., Aug. 7, 1900. Review and Herald Pub. Co. DEAR BRETHREN: It has been my privilege to study the book “Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns,” by Prof. E. A. Sutherland, of Battle Creek College. This, to me, is a very interesting and helpful volume. I sincerely wish it could be in every family where the name of Christ is professed, and carefully studied by them all. It deals truthfully and well with a theme that in importance is second to none with which the people of the Lord have to do. Its arrangement is such as to greatly help the reader to grasp and understand the truth with which it deals. It begins at the right place, and advances on true principles in a connected manner, and concludes when it has said enough, and not before. “Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns” contains 380 pages, printed from new type, substantially bound in cloth; price, $1.25.
