ground. We are making a god of
some pleasure, some selfish propen.
sity, or we are following the blood
stained banner of Jesus Christ. Lots
of trouble today comes by people out
Of their place trying to hurt some
body in his place" "Not the outward
splash, but truth in the heart, makes
the man. II we do not know that God
is, we shall not know that He is to
come"
A noted Eastern doctor, describing
the discouraging conditions existing
today, I'm % years the insane will
break out and put the sane where the
insane ought to be-" Shall we be
Christled or demon-led, shall we have
q cotton string or a backbone? Wher-
ever Paul went he cause either
a riot or revival. The speak.
er said there is something magnif-
cent in man believing what he be-
lieves."
When the call was given to quit the
camp of the enemy large number
stood up and later filed slowly to the
front and found peace and forgiveness

The Advent Message
"The message of Revelation 14:6-12
is the most momentous of any found
in the Bible-nothing can be COM
pared to that work and that people
indicated in this message" said
Elder George w. Wells, president of
the MINI. Seventh Day Adventist
Conference, in the introduction to his
discourse Saturday evening.
The testimony of Matthew (24:14)
was used to confirm the subject.
This gospel of the kingdom shall be
preached in all the world for a wit
ness unto all nations, and then shall
the end come" The people who
preach this message have something
to preach-something definite to do.
The gospel we are told by the apostle
Paul is the power of God unto saliva
ton to every one that believes"
People are to be saved from their sins
not in their sins.
The Law of God is considered by
some to be obsolete and should be re-
legated to the rear, but the testimony
of the Word of God is Here is the
patience of the saints: here are they
that keep the commandments of God,
lend the faith of Jesus" As result of
this message going to all the world
people will be developed who will look
for their Lords return and be found
keeping the Commandments of God.
Seventh Day Adventists profess to be
that people and their message is the
soon coming of Christ and the neces-
sary preparation for that great event.
We have the greatest task ever Civ
en- to mortal man to perform. The
world is not pleased to hear of the
destruction that awaits the ungodly
neither do sinners welcome the
straight testimony against sin, but
brave hearts must do the work COM
mitted to the leaders in this mighty
movement.
If it is impossible for man to live
Christian in the home, it is impos-
sible to be a Christian in a more
public way. Many a woman weeps
upon her pillow, perhaps hours, after
sharp, angry thrust has been given.
The speaker emphasized the thought
OF the parents turning to the children,
and of the children towards the par
ents as expressed by the prophet
Malachi. Delight thyself also in the
Lord; trust also in him; and he shall
bring it to pass. Commit Thy way
unto the Lord; trust also in Him; and
he shall bring it to pass" For yet
little while, and the wicked shall not
be; yea, thou shall diligently con-
slider his place, and it shall not be, but
the weak shall inherit the earth, and
shall delight themselves in the abund-
ance of peace"
The Judgment
''The people of all the world are
now looking toward Europe and to the
far East wondering what the next
, step will be-" said Elder w. w. Miller
I in sermon on the Judgment"
1t is generally understood by a
majority that the book of Revelation
is sealed book and even its truth
is hidden in mysteries, but the speak
er said that the very name itself in
dicated it to be a revelation or some
thing unfolded to the understanding
of all who would know its sacred con-
tents.
| The angel Gabriel made Daniel to
understand the mysteries and hidden
things in the writings of that prophet,
so the same or another could as
easily cause John to understand the
future. Thus these two symbolic
books explain each other and reveal
