mat the old wornl is ending and is

Hut bfore these biessingo will

oer Ihriiuuh tliis great time of
trouble. 1 bey may be ol tlie class
ilesei-ibed by ' Ihe Lord's Prophet
when he said: "I will bring them
through the fire (trouble) and will
reline Iheni as silver is refined
anil will try them as old is tried.
I'hey shall call upon my name and
1 will hear them; 1 will say it is
uiy people; and they shall say Ihe
Lord is niy (iod." Zechariah 13:9.
Those who are thus brought thru
ibis troublesome lime and who win

fered those who receive and obey
Ihe teachings of the Lord will grad
ually be restored to health of body
and mind to peace and happiness
.ud be granted life-everlasting on
e Ih forever. These are they who
inhesing on the Lord Jesus Christ
ii iliole finlppnipp shall never die.
it is quite evident that Ithe Lord Is
now perimtting mis goou news to
come to certain good people of the
earth to prepare ithem for the Glo-
rious Kingdom and the blessings
Incident there lo which is at hand.
"Whr'i-nfnri ulrd no the loins of
your mind be sober and hope to
the end for the grace that is to be
brought unto you at the revelation
of Jesus Christ. (1st Peter 1:13)
The ono- who now comes to a
knowledge of Hod's Plan who sees
that Jesus Is the Great Ranjomer
of mankind and who earnestly
seeks to know and to do the Lord's
will may truthfully look forward
M.tni orpnt Inv .to the earlv estab

which the Prophets hoped ana
prayed and of which the Psalmist

He said to them:
"It is written My House shall be

21:13) He told them in plain lan-
guage those who were defiling the
house of Ihe Lord of their wrong
but did not do this because they
were persecuting Him but that
they might know the truth. On
another occasion lie said: hut woe

Gospel of the Kingdom unlo all
Christendom and thus tlie end shall
come (Matt. 21.7-11) The proper
attitude then for us to take during
these limes of trouble is in calmness
and quietness to tell the people
what is Ihe meaning of tlie distress
upon tlie earth pointing to tlie fact
that the old order is passing away
(that the Kingdom of Heaven is at
hand that soon the Lord's Kingdom
will be in full operation and then
the opportunity will be granted to
nil mankind to receive and enjoy
the blessings of life liberty and
happiness; that this being so near
nt hand (The Resurrection of the
dead should begin the latter part
of 1925) every one should take heed
to the meaning of these events
which are now taking place and
nrenare themselves for the lncom
intf Kingdom of Righteousness
which shall bless the human race
Back of all our actions the motive
should be love a sincere desire to
do xoori unto our fellow creatures
and to glorify the name of our God
and of our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ.
In conclusion Dear Friends 1 re
mind you in tlie words of the Pro-
phet or old "Seek Righteousness
seek meekness; it may be ye shall
he hid in the day of the l.onrs anger."-'elianiah
