Great Opportunities Await All.

Great Opportunities Await All.
In the world opportunities for prog
ress and greatness are by no means
equal. Nevertheless, few make good
use of their golden opportunities. All
such may take good lesson from
Saul, for he had naturally some good
traits. Saul evidenced humility ,hen
he repudiated the suggestion OF his
becoming king. saying that even IN his
own little tribe his family was not
prominent Again. when Samuel call
cd the people. that the Lords will
might be determined as TO who should
be king. Saul hid himself amongst the
baggage. He knew how the Lords lot
would fall: and il was to his credit
that he was not strutting about say
ing, The Lord would surely choose
me. Again, when some murmured
that he was not acceptable Saul
quietly went home. Thus he display
ed patience, wisdom and humility. His
subsequent action in leading the
army of Israel showed his faith in God
and his courage. Had Saul maintain
ed these characteristics, his experi.
ences later would have been very off
ferent.
Gods consecrated people. like Saul,
have been nominated of God, not only
to be kings. but also to be priests, "a
Royal Priesthood" AS Saul was
anointed with oil. so the Royal Priest
hood are anointed with the Holy
Spirit. As the people rejected Saul,
and he waited patiently for the Lords
time, so mankind are not yet ready for
the reign of the Royal Priesthood, Of
which Jesus is the head; and Gods
time has not yet come for the estab-
lishment of the Kingdom. Lessons of
patience, humility and confidence in
God are requisite that, after enduring,
they might inherit the promises.--He-
brews 6:12.
The great Armageddon is at hand.
and terrible lessons will be learned
by the world at great lost There
after Messiahs Kingdom will be very
popular; and It will be said, as in
Saul's case, let all oppOsers be put to
death. However, the glorified Christ
Jesus the Head. the Church His
members-will be very gracious; and
a general amnesty will be proclaimed
for all desiring to come in line with
the Kingdom of Righteousness.
Not only those who prosecuted
Jesus will be forgiven and assisted
back into harmony with God through
Him, but those who had despised and
unwittingly prosecuted the Royal
Priesthood will be mercifully dealt
with. Qsaiah 66:5). After Gods for
giveness to all the willing and obedi-
net The Christ will bring blessings Of
Restitution, which God hath spoken
by the mouth of all the holy Prophets
since the world began."-Acts 1921.

"He that is slow to anger is better

Proverbs 16:32.
Israel had asked for a king. God,
through the Prophet Samuel. had
caused the amounting OF Saul to re
king. The Israelites had assembled.
and Samuel had indicated Gods
choice. Some had gladly accepted it,
but the rougher element refused,
sneeringly saying, who is he, that we
should hope for anything great at His
hand
II looked as though the Lords
choice had been unsatisfactory and
had come to naught. Having such
half hearted support from the people,
Saul returned home, and patiently
waited for the opportune, o. phycho-
logical, moment when, with Gods
blessing, he would enter upon the du-
ties and responsibilities for which he
haC been Divinoly anointed.
A month later the opportunity of
fered. The Ammonites, residing in
The east of Israel's possessions, had
for some time besieged Jabesh- -gilead,
until the city asked terms for sur
render. The Ammonite generals taunt
was that on one condition he would
save their lives-they should each
submit to having one eye put out, as
a shame on all Israel
Time was asked for decision. Mes
sengers were dispatched, possibly to
all the tribes. Some came to the
place where Saul resided. evidently
hoping that he would take steps for
their deliyerance The disgrace of
the situation struck home to Saul's
heart Israel, to whom God had
promised the possession of the land
and His assistance, lacked faith and
leadership.
Saul was appointed leader; the
psychological moment had come. He
killed the oxen he had been driving
and sent pieces to all the tribes, say
ing that whoever did not become a
defender of the general interests
would have his oxen hewed to pieces
This was a peculiar command for 2
king; but it touched the right spot, for

men responded. The messengers re-
turned to Jabesh-gilead with assur-
ance Of succor before noon the next
day: and they gave answer to their
besiegers that they would by the time
appointed march out for the Am
monites TO do as they thought best
meantime expecting deliveranco.
King Saul divided his army into
three sections. and from three diff
ferent quarters came suddenly upon
the besieging hosts. routing them
and delivering the lsraelites. There
upon they realized that God had in
deed given them a wise king, whom
they had been slow to recognize; and
they inquired for those who spoke
against Saul, saying. let them be slain.
However, the king wisely and gener-
ously said. There shall not a man
be put to death this day, for today the
Lord hath wrought salvation in
Israel"

John 5:2S. 20, r. "
TO grasp the situation we must re-
member that all men are under a
death-sentence; and that it matters
little whether they die from starva-
ton, sickness, pestilence or by the
sword. The penalty merely reads.
"pying. thou shalt die"-not live, any
how or anywhere. This fact has a
distinct bearing on the Lords author
ization of wars, permission of famines,
sickness, etc. While God has en-
forced the penalty, "The wages of sin
is DEATH" thus manifesting His JUS
tice, He has also been preparing for
the manifestation of His Love. The
first step was the sending of His
Son to be mans Redeemer-to die for
Adams sin. under which the race is
condemned to death.
The Divine Plan is hidden from the
world in general. Only the Lords
consecrated people have a clear un-
derstanding through the Bible OF
Gods loving purposes for mankind
These are informed that God will es-
tabllsh a Kingdom which will bind
Satan, release humanity from Its
mental, moral and physical weak
nesses, and restore the willing and
obedient to perfection and relation
