assemblies at this place Of worship Taking for his
text the words Psalms, TX, ~ 'Thou hast
given banner to them that fear thee, that it may
be displayed because OF the TRUTH" the minister
said banners are for the brave. The sturdiesS

of all banner bearers and 1t Is applied In this

standard to nations To it they were forced to do
homage. The banner Of truth, OF which David
wrote, is the lineal progenitor OF that which We
grasp to-day. The standard Of the "Lion OF tho
Tribe OF Judah" only leads the van; now the sign
OF the cross is emblaZOned on our banners. We
have not lost our hold upon the past The truth IS
complex but it is simple. Old ways of putting
things may be put aside; put the WORD OF God'

contains the truth in its cearest forms. Those
who fear God are thus described, because banner
is the emblem OF union.
