THE LAW OF GOD

why Is " the Cnufcnes arc empl!
today, and the theaters filledg Why
is Il professed christians have no life,
only for empty forms and ceremonies
The suppers and entertainments Of
pleasures only? Striving thus TO build
up Gods sanctuary financially, thus
lulling the conscience for souls, SO do
ing do they build the church spirit
ually? II so, why empty seats today?
God is as Of old, today calling each in
dividual to return to Him, and His
broken law, foretold by Daniel the
prophet, would come to pass, land
been broken down for many genera
tions.) Dan. VII-23 to rs. And now
the message is given for its restora-
tino. And as Daniel prayer for Gods
people, Tin Daniel ninth chapter).
Then, for Gods sanctuary to be built
up, so again today. (His house is "
ing waste). He is pleading to return
TO His law. Notice, in Daniel nine,
ist verse, Daniel tasted and prayed
for mercy, Sd, 4th, and 9Th verses, and
said we have sinned, and have commit
ted iniquity, and have done wickedly,
and have rebelled, even by departing
from thy precepts, and from thy judg-
ments. Neither have we hardened I'M
to thy servants the prophets, which
spake in thy name to our kings, our
princes and our fathers, and to all the
people of the land. Does God change?
Oh, no, but the people do. Sth, 9th
and 10th verses. o, Lord to us belong
eth confusion of face. To the Lord
our God belong mercies and forgive
nesses, though we have rebelled
against Him. Neither have we obeyed
the voice of the Lord our God, to walk
in His laws, which He set before us by
His servants the prophets: Yea all
Isreal (11th verse who are lsreal or
the seed of Christ? Gal. III-16,26, to
29) have transgressed thy law, even
by departing, that they might not
obey the voice, therefore the curse is
poured upon US (13th to 18th verses
of Daniel nine). Yet made we not
our prayer before the Lord our God,
that we might turn from our iniquities
and understand thy truth. (What is
truth? John XVII-17-God's word,
not man's.) Then Daniel prayed
Daniel KID. Now therefore, Our
God hear the prayer of thy servant
and his supplications, and cause thy
face to shine upon thy sanctuary, that
is desolate, for the Lords sake. Hear
and forgive. Are the people pleading
thus today, and returning to the law
of God, that is broken, and laid the
house of God waste? 0 unless you do
it will lay waste and desolate until
Jesus comes; and the time is near at
hand, he that is unjust will be unjust
still, and he that is righteous righ-
teous still, and behold | come quickly
