Faithful Unto Death.

OOlQt Oue VI more
of the features r...+., r..o noo,h
of this description
would seem to be peculiarly appropri-
ate to each stage Of the Church; and
In each case He who sends the mes
sage is thus described. The last part
of each message is a promise to the
"oyercomers," and Is also peculiarly
adapted to the different periods of
Church history.
To give a birdseye view of the ar
rangement, we would notice their
chronological position. Ephesus Gov
ers the period during the lives of the
Apostles; Smyrna, that of the pagan
persecution, reaching to about 325 A.
D., when Constantine became Emper-
or and declared In favor of Christian
ity. Pergamos embraces the transition
period during which the papacy had
its rise; Thyatira, the space during
which the True Church was In the
wilderness, and the Apostate Church
sat as a queen and lived deliciously
with the kings of the earth. Sardis
includes a short interval just before
the Reformation; Philadelphia the pc
riod from the Reformation until re-
cent times; and Laodicea, the nominal
Church of today.
Messages to Various Churches.
Ephesus means first. desirable. Dur
ing this period our Lord "holdeth the
seven stars in His right hand" The
messengers of the Ch~urches-the Apos-
tles-were so kept during this epoch
that we accept their teachings as our
Lords, believing that their words were
really His. This stage of the Church
is commended for its faithful, patient
labor and for its discernment of Truth
and of true teachers.-Acts 20:2S-3O.
Smyrna means bitter. This stage of
the Christian Church was the period
of most bitter persecution, under the
Emperors from Nero to D~iocletian. In
this message our Lord styles Himself
'the First and the Last, which was
dead and is alive" In no other sense
could He be the First and the Last
than as the Fathers direct Creation.
through whom all else was created.
Any other view would conflict with
the Scriptures.-Revelation 3:14; Colos-
slams 1:15; John lib; l Cor. Sc.
Verse 10. Thus our Lord informed
His faithful servants that theirs would
be a time of great persecution. Pagan
Rome, here symbolized as the Devil,
has been the most devilish of earthly
governments, when viewed in the light
Of its bloody prosecutions. The ten
symbolic days refer to the last and
most eve persecution-that Of Diocle-
tan, A. D. 303-313. Some Of the most
sublime pictures of Christian endur-
ance were enacted during the Smyrna
period of Church history. The call was
for faithfulness unto death; the prom
ise was that the Overcomers should re-
ceive "the crown Of life"-immortality
Pergamos means earthly elevation
The Speaker is "He who hath the
sharp Sword with two edges" Gle
brews 4:12) During this period, while
the nominal Church was growing popu-
lar, true Christians were tested and
proved by the introduction and devel-
opment of pagan and papal ideas. The

influential positions amongst the peo.
