Men Now Living VIM See Christ Come


To the Editor: Men and women are
living on this earth who are in middle
life, yes, who are bowed with age, who
will see Jesus Christ coming in the
clouds of heaven with power and great
glory. Overwhelming Bible evidence
can be given to show that the people
now living upon the earth will see the
glorious appearing of the Son of God
to take His followers with Him to
heaven, to bring an end to all sin, sor-
row, pain and death, to wipe away all
tears, to Danish war from the earth,
and to bring joy and gladness to those
who are ready to meet Him.
The Scripture declares, "Christ was
once offered to bear the sins of many,
and unto them that look for him shall
he appear the second time, without sin,
unto salvation" Seventh-day Advent
/ lists are looking for Him. That is why
we are called Adventists.->
/ Some may ask, 'Isn't there danger
/ that after you have looked for the com
I ing of Christ so long, that after all you
may be mistaken about this matter?''
i No, there is not the slightest chance for
a mistake upon this important point.
! Christ is coming, and he Is coming
soon. SeYenth-day Adventists never
have pretended to know just when, for
the exact time is not revealed in the
Bible. But the Bible tells US the gen
Grafton IN which he will come. We
don't have to guess at 1T.
In the gath chapter OF Matthew we
find the record Of the Savior's promise
that He would return. The 14th verse
tells US: ''This gospel Of the kingdom
shall be preached in all the world, for
q witness unto all nations, and then
shall the end come" When do the
Seventh-day Adventists expect the end
OF the world? When the gospel of the
kingdom is preached in all the world
How soon viii that be? Well, it might
have been done years ago-it might
have been finished now. The only rea-
son it has not been finished is because
there were not enough Of those who
: loved their Lord sufficiently to finish It
t But we have come to the time when
! that message Is going swiftly from IA

London. Sept. 26.-Twenty thousand

numbers Of which as yet there is no
estimate, is the toll taken in the first
two days drive Of the Anglo-French
forces, who have begun great often
sive movement against the German
entrenchments along the line OF the
western war zone. which extends from
the North sea to the Swiss frontier.
Two distinctive operations are un-
der way, one to the north of Arras and
the other in the Champagne region,
while there has been an incessant
bombardment along almost the entire
front.
Both the British and French have
been successful. carrying trenches ex-
tending over a distance Of twenty
miles and depth varying up to two
and a half miles. 1t is reported off
cially both from Paris and London
that the advance still is being con-
tinued. the ground gained having in
a large measure been held and con.
soIidated.
The Berlin war office admits the re.
tirement Of the German forces at va
rious points. but minimises the result
Of the engagements.
For several weeks British and
French artillery have been pounding
fiercely and continuously at the Ger
man line. The forward movement OF
the infantry began Saturday morning,
when Thousands Of allied troops threw
themselves against the German
trenches, in which. though battered
and torn by heavy shells. the Ger
mans waited. having long expected the
onslaught. Much Of the fighting was
at close range. hand.tohand encoun-
ters being carried from trench to
trench.
The heavy artillery continued to
pour forth a rain Of heavy projectiles.
while aviators took the air to direct
the firing and themselves engaged In
many combats.
