SCRIPTURES EXPLAINED.

We have received the annexed letter
Of inquiry from an extreme southern
county
Would you please explain through
your columns the meaning OF the pas
sage IN Malachi 9. 1, where Il speaks
Of the Lord coming % His Temple sud
denly. Am / 90 understand that this
prophecy Of Malachi was fulfilled when

pie TO be erected In the center Stake,

that the prophecy had already been
fulfilled. Also where Christ speaks OF.
not thinking II robbery TO be equal with
God, are We to understand that He
Christi is equal I'm Intelligence with the
Father. or what did He mean?"
This prophecy, like other scriptures,
IS to be viewed in the light Of the
context It evidently refers TO a later
appearance OF the Lord than the mani
festation In the Kirkland Temple, and
the attendant circumstances are also
entirely different The question is
asked, "who may abide the day OF His
coming. and who shall stand when He
appearethF lie says: Il VIII come
near TO you 20 judgment" And fur
Their: "Then shall the Offering Of judah
and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the
Lord as in the days OF old. and as In
former years"
These events are coupled with the
declaration that He viii come sudden
~ 10 His temple" and therefore Il ap-
pears clear that His advent thus spok-
en- OF IS yet IN the future. Many pas
sages Of scripture which seem obscure
when Isolated. become plain when COM
pared with the context.
The other question Is IN regard 10 the
statement In Philippians Il, 9. 6. Let
this mind be in you that was IN Christ
Jesus, who being In the form OF God
thought Il not robbery 70 be equal with
God etc.
There Is nothing said there about
equality Of Intelligence" Christ is one
with the Father He Is IN the express
image or form Of God. He S. pos
