for the Lords plan to be established,
namely. the United Order. We are
not ready for that yet, | think, but
it will come. But remember this, that
when it does come this scheme of
things will not be changed, namely,
that individuality, the individual man,
the individual woman, must save him
! self or herself, must develop and grow
and become like unto the Master.
| There Is no other way, except only
through hard, bitter, sore experience.
You will not get it any other way. 1t
will not come 80 easy.
The United Order when 1t does
come I think will mean individuality,
personal effort, personal salvation,
with you in your stewardship, me in
mine, every man appointed in his
| place to work in his stewardship.
Then the surplus will go for those
who are not so we'll situated and who
need help. They will be taken and
directed, Here my brother. you take
this little plot of ground, or You take
this little part of business. Here is
means enough for you and you devel-
CD It and make It grow and keep it
out of debt and work at it. And then
he will develop 1t, don't you see?
But II, according to the idea OF
some Of our friends, that all you need
to do is to divide and to keep on d.
viding, why of course they could wish
that kind or a thing were here long
while before. Lay not that iattering
function to your souls that there Is
any other way to gain salvation In
the kingdom of God except by rising
when YOU fall. You stumble, OF
course, we all do, but rise up again,
my brother, press on, persevere in Ia
Dor, in toll, in earnestness. in dill
gence. IN the sweat Of thy face doing
thy part, toiling, persevering. Press
IN and on, add line upon line, and
precept upon precept. Gain inteiii-
pence and knowledge and making this
person-you, me the individual per
son-yesr by year, little more like
unto the Master, the Son OF God. so
shall we progress and become IKE
Him, and only so, whether in the Uni
ted Order or any other way.
