out as he does to his people III behalf
of Africa's suffering and Ignorant
millions, and believe it is God who
makes Johnson slay whom Turner let
escape by his (Johnson's) practical
method of vessel preparation or
embarkment. And later on comes
Bishop Lee with his method of
standing committees ON missions
making it their duty to write
upon missions, and do something
in a general way to stir up the
people to a more active discharge of
their duty toward the work of mis-
sions. God help us this year to do
more than ever before for missions.
Can we not do it? To say we can
not is virtually to say the ways of
the Lord are not equal, or rather. his
promises are not to be depended
upon. For it is said we shall go on
from strength to strength and frain
conquer to conquest. Now, whatever
1t may mean, 1t certainly does not
mean retrogression. | am prepared
to say as well as believe, that
God is progressive God, and all
{ his works, whether in matter
or spirit is progressive, and his
Saints shall be like Him. The
Heavens shall tremble at His
voice, and the earth shall quake by
reason of the roaring of His chariot
wheels. With sanctified souls, hands
and feet as well as eyes, tongues and
ears, it is possible that we shall con-
quer, though we die. And Africa
seems to be the most important field
for us to operate in just now, so let
us go to it. Let us save our ances-
torial continent. Let the young girl
and young boy study the languages,
read everything and know every
thing, so as to be deeply prepared to
do any and everything that their
hands may find to do in the saving of
their country Il mean Africa). [
