AS we understand 1t, ana as
we recorded in our last weeks
issue that it was. the request OF
Bro. McAliister, for his funeral
10 ne preached from the - CHI.
% RcY. with the book open lay
ing on his coffin. !
This was one Of extraordinary |
request. And does not only
show to- thc. Ed. the mind OF the
deceased at the time. but the Ed.
shall endcayor to show the read.
crs OF the CRE,SET, the same
from the scriptures referred to.
BY the deceased For we, believe
that his mind was resting upon
Heaven and Heavenly things.
| And 10 order To get h. the right.
full understanding of what is re,
corded in the - chapter we must
go back to the 81 chapter. And in
this II CHI. we learn that the an.
gel that talked to John, showed
to him the Great city, the Holy
Jerusalem, .and..its connections -
John saw this Holy Jerusalem
come down from God out.of. hrav.
