We are not to think that because our
eyes were blinded by the Adversary's
dust for centuries that these things in
dictate a change in the Divine Program.
Nay, He who sits upon the Throne Of
the Universe has from the very first
had all the plans and arrangements
before Him perfectly, and has been
causing all things to work together ac-
cOrding to the counsel Of His own will.

Of God to take away the sin Of the
world" by the sacrifice of Himself.
The sacrifice was made necessary to
demonstrate the enormity Of sin. aud
The length. breadth, height and depth
Of Divine Mercy and Love.
After four thousand years Of sin and
death, God sent His Son to die. to be-
come the Redeemer of men, that He
might become their King and Deliv-

sending His Son to redeem men, had

everything was accurately timed. In
due time He sent His Son to redeem
man. In lue time, also. He will send
His Son to dispense the blessings Sc.

Meantime, the Election of the
Church-the sanity Little Flock, all
tried, tested. proven in their loyalty to
God, even unto death-has been almost
accomplished. We are already in the
Day of His Preparation. Nahum 2:3.)
He Is pouring out blessings on the
minds Of men and Is ~quickening hui
man understanding. The result is that
the world has taken on new beauty,
fresh energy. .
Crossing Into MiIIenniaI Age.
A spring time Of Divine favor and
refreshment Is here, as foretold. But
the b~lossoming deserts, answering to
the irrigation streams and to the arte-
sian springs; the railroads and the tel
egraphs. bringing together the ends of
the earth; the printing presses, caus-

ening the whole world-all these things
are blessings so great as to astound
us. One week Of life now has almost
as much possibility in 1t as a year had
a century ago.
Evidently we are just crossing from
the Gospel Age 10 the Millennial Age,
With the death and translation OF the
last member Of the Church, the Gospel
Age will have fully ended, and the
Millennial Age will have been fully in
augurated. Oh, how immense Is the
thought that we are living In the most
wonderful epoch Of the worlds history
that stupendous changes are at handi
The Prince of Darkness is about ,
be completely d%ethroned, and bound
for a thousand years. The Prince of
Light, our Redeemer, is about to take
His great power and reign. Blessings
already beginning to be poured OUT
will go on increasing until "the earth
shall be filled with the knowledge of
the glory Of God, as the waters coveE
the great Deep" and every knee shall
bow and every tongue confess, to tho
, glory Of God"
AS the curse came first upon the earth
itself, so it is first rolling away from
the earth. Already the wilderness is
blOssoming as q rose. Already new
types Of grain, vegetables and fruits
are being brought to perfection, and
are yielding p~henomenally. Shortly
the lifting Of the curse will extend ia
humanity, With the knowledge of
God will come a knowledge of thu
blessed opportunities which Messiah'a
Kingdom will afford to all who desire
to return to the Fathers House. More
and more the willing and ebedient will
be blessed. Not only will the shackles
drop from their minds, but also from
their various powers.
By the close of the Millennium the
grooming creation will have been freed
from the bondage to sin and death.
All the former things of sin and death
shall have passed away. The Anal
penalty of the Second Death win be
executed upon all not found worthy Of
everlasting life under that most favor:
able opportunity.
What a glorious triumph that will
be, when every creature in Heaven and
earth and under the earth shall be
heard saying, Praise. glory, honor, do

stitch upon the Throne, and unto the
Lamb, forever! Revelation 5:13l.
What a glorious condition will then OBJ
