Your Democracy is getting away with
your judgment. In other words, you are
not telling the truth. We said that when
a doggery-keeper was seized with remorse
and went off and killed himself, it was a
good thing for the community, not for the
soul, for we would rather take the chances
in the next world-of the vilest murder
er who dropped from the scaffold, than
the best doggery-keeper who died in a
palace. We only think it is good thing
when he goes, and can sin no more.

Under the persistent prosecutions of
Gods people. The ministers of God were
put to death, and Baal was triumphant.
In this hour arose one of the greatest of
Gods Prophets, Elijah, who was as firm
and tireless worker for Him as Jezebel
was against him. But little is known of
the early life of Elijah the Tishbite. He
was from Gilead, the country east of the
Jordan, and stretching away to the Syrian
desert. He appeared, without any hu-
initiation or ceremony before Ahab and
spoke to him truths received directly
from the Father. He forewarned the
disciple of Baal that the rain or the dew
would not fall, and that practically there
would be famine, or the country would
become desert.
Had the Prophet remained in the land
to witness the visitation of the curse
which he had prophesied, he would pos
sibly have fallen victim to the anger of
Ahab. But the Lord, who is ever mindful
of His children, directed him to a place
of safety, extending that watchful care
not only to the temporary safety of the
Prophet, but to his comfort and susie
nance. For, as the rains came not, the
streams were dried, and it was necessary
to remove to some place where supply of
water could be had. The Lord directed
Elijah to go to the brook of Cherith, be-
fore Jordan, and there to drink of the
brook. Obeying the Divine Command,
Elijah experienced wonderful manifes-
tation of Gods care over his chosen ones.
For here, he was not only supplied with
water, but bread and flesh were carried
to him by ravens.
The brook became dry, and the Prophet
was directed to go to Zarephath, where
he should find a widow woman, of whom
he should obtain supplies. The reply of
this widow to the Prophets request for
food, has been characteristic of the hu-
man mind ever since She could give
him nothing, because she had not enough
for herself and son. How many there
are to-day who plead the same excuse
when asked to assist Gods cause The
good woman could not realize how she
could prevent starvation from coming in
to her own household, if she gave of her
scant store to the stranger. Yet, under
the bountiful providence of the Father,
neither the meal in the barrel. nor the oil
in the cruise gave out.
We are taught in this lesson that wick
edness, any manner of unfaithfulness, to-
ward God can but result disastrously to
the soul engaged in it. That the same
God who fittingly rewards the unfaithful,
has sweet reward for those who faith
fully serve him; that He ever keeps, and
feeds, and protects His children, if they
serve Him well.
