We report Pastor Russelrs discourse
of today. from the text which he said
referred directly to the Great Pyramid
located near this city: In that day
there shall be an altar to the Lord in
the midst of the land of Egypt,
for a sign and for a witness" Qsa-
xix. 10. 20l Not only did God thus
mention prophetically in Isaiah the
great Pyramid, but also in jeremiah
xxxii. 20. where we read that He set
signs and wonders in the land of
Egypt. even unto this day
The location of the Pyramid is re-
markable. and its size centuries ago
marked it one of the Seven Won
ders of the world

gives as many pyramid cubits as there
are days in four years. to the fraction
including the leap year fraction. The
diagonal measurements across the
base, n. E. to S. W., and N. w. to S.
E., give as many inches as there are
years in the professional cycle of the
stars. This cycle astronomers had al
ready concluded to be 25,S27 years.
and the Pyramid corroborates the con-
clusion. The distance to the sun is in
dicated by the height and angle of the
Pyramid to be 81 SAC, ,27O miles, which
| almost exactly corresponds with the
latest figures reached by astronomers.
