THE FRUITS WE BEHOLD
on EARTHARE THE NATURAL RESULT OF
SEED Planted by Our Fathers and Cultivated
by Ourselves.

herilance consisting of land, air, water, oil,
coal-in fact, all raw material necessary tor
mans susenance. 1t makes no difference
when or where on earth you were born, or
where YOU NAV wander while on earth, your
natural inheritance was under your feet, and
afraid, for the earth was Gods, and God loaned
the use of the same for our use, to produce from
His raw material all that we needed. Exchange
of the fruits of labor was not forbidden, pro-
vided it was a perfectly equitable exchange
with no profit or increase connected with the
tran action; and to show that no increase or
profit or usury was to be the consideration,
esus said, in Luke, 634, "And if ye lend to
them from whom ye hope to receive, what
thanks Lave ye? for sinners also lend to sim
ners, to receive as much again"-which would
indicate that 'much egain' was double the
amount, or investing one dollar in trade, the
returns being two dollars.
But in Deut., xxiii:I9 God speaks through
Moses: that the children of God, or His real
followers, mist not accept profit from their
own people, who were then known as lsraete',
which means soldiers of God; and to be real
lew was to be one who, by his every act,
praised or glorifsd Cod
The word Christian is synonymous with the
word lew; but as soon as Jew took interest
or profit from brother that moment he be-
came, and is considered, traitor and real
onorstr CT Gods will. The Christian fills the
same position, and for Christian to accept in
,erest from a brother that moment he is worse
than Pagan or Gentle, and has betrayed
Christ like Judas did--for personal selfish gain
or profit.
Thus the pro6t-taker in any form spoils his
opportunity to gain what he came on earth to
do and that purpose is to reach the higest attain
ment-the '.at- one nent' with GCd. Jesus OF
Nazareth gained the prize, and was the hrst
fruits who reached the atonement; and II we
really follow Him-that is, do as He did-we
would soon gain our first love.
When the North and South went to war in
1861, neither Jeff Davis or Abraham Lincoln,
North or South, Democrat or Republican, went
TO war for the purpose Of freeing the chattel
s,ave That was far from their minds, for If
that was their purpose, why did not all parties
,o;r and vote the Abolition ticket? and the
thing would have been accomplished peacefully.
Well, here's big secret. When the North
ern and Southern Pagans got into war among
themselves. over some trivial matters of their
own. Cod came, i'll His own way, and set the
chattel slave free. Watch the cycle of forty
wears, year for year-IS56 to 1866, and the
wears between them. Compare our 1896 to
1886. and year tor year following 1856 to 1866
is prophecy type of another change that will
end N 1906 and all will see that the wage
slave IN the United States is freed forever, even
&c tbe c,,attel slave was freed before 1865. For
again did the money power win the presiden-
tial election, and again will trouble arise IN the
camp of all the Pagans of the United States
(and the world, for that matter); and again,
where Pagans are blowing each other to pieces
AGAIN for the last time, will God put out the
unseen hand, and, in time, set all humanity
free from all Pagan rule, and will give all an,
other opportunity to come back to his first eco
,omc rule. which this time, under the ploduc'
tion for use, we will forget self entirely, will
rroduce. and we will render unto God fruits o.
His own planting; for every root that God hath
not planted shall be rooted up.
Then we will all go to work collectively, and
with our improved machinery, produce from
our land all tue necessities of life. We car
