bid us forward into the combat, our en-
emies shall fly like chaf in the whlrl-
wind. and all the towers Of heaven ring
because the day is ours. | divide this
armv with banners into two wings-the
American wing and the European wing
The American wing will march on
across the wilds Of the west, over the
table lands and come 20 the ocean, no
more stopped by the Pacific than the
Israelites were stopped by the Red Sea,
marching on until the remaining walls
of China will fall before this army with
banners, and cold Siberia will be turned
to the warm heart of Christ, and over
lofty Himalayan peaks shall go this
army with hammers until it halts at Pal
estine.
The European wing will march out
to meet it, and Spanish superstition
shall be overcome, and French intdellty
shall be conquered; and over the Alps,
with more than Hannibal's courage,
shall march that army with banners,
and up through the SHOWS OF Russia,
vaster in multitude than the hosts that
followed Napoleon into the conflict.
And Hungary and Poland, by the blood
of their patriots and by the blood OF
Christ, shall at last be free. And cross
ing into Asia, the law shall again be
proclaimed on Sinai, and Christ In the
person OF his ministers, will again
preach on Olivet, and pray in Gethse-
name, and exhibit his love on Calvary.
And then the army will halt in front OF
the other wing, the twain having con-
quered all the earth for God.
a. History tells us that one day the
armies OF Xerxes shouted all at once,
and the vociferatiOn was so mighty that
the birds flying through the air dropped
as though they were dead. Oh, what a
shout Of triumph when all the armies OF
earth and all the armies Of heaven shall
celebrate the victory Of our King
at once and all together; "Halelujah!
for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
Hallelujah. for the kingdoms Of this
world have become the Kingdoms OF our
Lord Jesus Christ"
When the Prussian army came back
from their war they were received in
1866 at the gates of Berlin, and a choir
stood above the gates and as the tlrst
regiment advanced and came 10 the
gates, the choir, in music, asked them
what right they had to enter there. And
then the first reg iment, in song, replied,
telling over the stories of their conflicts
and their victories. Then they marched
in, and all the city was full OF gladness
and triumph. But oh, the greater JOY
when the army with banners shall come
up TO the gates of our king.
1t will be choir to choir, music to
music, hosanna to hosanna, helIelujah
to hallelujah. Lift up your heads, ye
everlasting gates, and let them come in.
Then will be spread the banquet Of
eternal victory, and the unfallen ones
of heaven will sit at it, and all the ran
Somed of earth will come in and cele-
brate the jubilee, with unfading gar
lands on their brow telling Of earthly
conqueSts, All the walls OF that
celestial mansion will be aglittcr
with shields won in victorious
battle, and adorned with the ban
ners of God that were carried in
front of the host. Harp shall tell TO
harp the heroism in which the con-
querors won their palm, aud the church
that day will sit queen at the banquet.
Her wanderingS over, her victories
gained, Christ shall rise up TO intro
duce her to all the nations of Heaven;
and as she pulls aside her veil and looks
up into the face of her Lord the King,
Christ shall exclaim, This is she that
looketh forth as the morning, fair as
the moon, clear as the sun, aud terrible
as an army with banners"
