the placing Of monopolies and utilities
and the supplies of nature in the hands
of the people for the public good. The
crisis will be reached when the hlther-

lators of the law and resisters of the
will of the majority as expressed by

lead the well-meaning masses to desper-

Socialism fails.
The Clouds Silver Lining.
Horrible would be this outlook for
the future did we not have the infalli-
BILE Word of God assuring as of
glorious outcome! Divine Wisdom has
withheld until our day the great knowl>
edge and skill which is at the same
time breeding millionaires and discon-
tents. Had God lifted the veil thou

have lined up for it's Armageddon l.
thousand years sooner; But that
would have been too soon for the d.

ouch delusion respecting Gods Plan.
We have claimed that Christ set up
His Church in Kingdom power. and
that the Church has been reigning on
the earth as His representative. On
the strength of this delusion. Jews and
heretics have been prosecuted to death
as opponents to Christ's Kingdom. All
the while we thoughtlessly repeated
the Lords prayer: THY Kingdom
come: Thy will be done on earth. as IN
Heaven, We knew that the Redeemel
said that He would come again te
make us His Bride and joint-heirs: bu
