much warmer than the day before. This
was much appreciated by the campers. 10
the m rninp there was meeting Of the Ohio
state conference, presided over by Elder X.
A. Underwood. AtlO:3O T. Ter @. @. Ru-
pert preached on the subject, "Sacrifcing for
God" In the afternoon the day was besu'i-
fu', and all we're in the best of spirits, Will
indications are favorable for nice weather
during the rest OF the meeting.
At $50 p. m. Elder }. D. Van Horn de-
was Rev. 3;lO:l2, "Bec,u,e thou hes kept
the word OF my patience, ! shall also keep
thee from the h ,ur &C temptation, which
shall come upon sl the world to try them
that dwell upon the earth. Behold, | come
quickly Hold that fast which thou hast
that no man taka thy crown"
These passages have relation to the second
advent OF Christ, and prior to his coming
there will be an hour of temptation. Many,
no doub;, think that their temptations now
are great, but the time will come when Gods
p opie will encounter greater trials and more
severe struggles than they have ever expert
enced. Who will stand the test, is the ques-
tion, for prior to the coming OF Christ satan
and his angels will use all their powers to
lead astray the people OF God, and, IL posi-
BILE, the elect would be deceived. Matt.
2I23 reads thus: "lf any man shall say unto
you, 10 here is Christ believe it not for there
shall arise false Cbrlsts and false prophets
and shall show great signs and wonders in
somuch that # II were possible they shall
deceive the very elect. Yes the scriptures
teach us that in the last days, lust
prior 10 .ne second ADVENT the satanic
