SUNDAY MORNING SERMON.

things mortal eye has before since Signs portens passed before his wondering and vision in terrible procession; voices and prophecy and mystic meaning sounded in his soft and low, and like the crash of coding worlds He set down little of what he and still less of what he heard. And of the little he did write, preachers and philosophers heologians teachers have been ing and debating and wondering for thousand years
 The vision of the angels with the trum. pets stands the simplest and also the mys terous of all that John behind the veil while this immortal isle
 The first of these seven angels sounded its trumpet and hail and fire descended upon the earth
 The second angel blew and burning mountain terri fled the apostle
 The third angel blew and great star fell from Heaven and turned the waters of the earth to wood.
 The fourth angels blast darkened onethrd of the
 The fifth angels trumpet peal opened the pit of the Abyss.
 The sixth angels trumpet call summoned plague
 The seventh angel -ah. this angel did raise the trumpet its lips and blow. But day, John de clared this shining sound that trumpet and it's blast will proclaim the Truth to the world.
 There were seven angels and six of them sounded death and destruction and the angel made sound Two thousand years ntervened since John saw these celestial visitors and heard ominous blasts of doom and still that seventh angel has raised that fateful trumphet to its lips
 What does the seventh trumpet portend? Surely T. is something grand and good and full of hope must be this, after all the bad that from the brazen hroats of the proceeding six After the tempest comeih the storm; after the dark dawn; the strife peace
 Fire bitterness, destruction darkness depths plague. these were sown upon the earth by the six angels of Johns vision. What shall the seventh SOW? Truth! declared John Something spiritual Something fair and final.
 Johns vision a symbol of life in this world day by day Storm drouth sickness and death have been the portion of mankind since Ham. shem Japhet landed from the ark. The six dark angels of Envy, Malice Coveousness Violence, Selfish ness Unbelief blow their trumpets upon earth nearly undone. But take heart, ye pilgrims of Long Trail, seventh trumpet yet to sound,
 Weeping may endure for night but joy cometh in the morning. Faith will overcome and withstand violence and survive the pestence and the After long cropping the dark doubt the debts of this frai flesh depths of abyss the uncertainties the tired half blind eyes and the bruised and weary feet will come the crash that seventh trumpet in the hands of the motionless angel and the Truth will revealed light will shine that will drive all the shadows away forever. Not til then shall We know.
 A little more patience with a brother little courage for the fight, little in the silence, little courage fight. a little hope tomorrow. Six trumpets of trouble have been blown Alright We still here under the Heavens and the shining stars What earth does rock and the air of poison abyss opened beneath feet? Our bodies may well trembe and be afraid, for they mortal these foes. But spirit should never quail It is immortal The sixth trumpets not for it. The seventh is reserved for the spirit
 Hardship, misfortune and humble circumstances may we'll mortify the flesh mans spirit will light his life like a lamp if he will only keep trimmed and burning The kindly, gentle, unselfish is daunt ed by the six rumpets does he fear the sounding of the The blast Truth fro mthat last trumpet will level the barriers raise the low places of earth and alignment for the spirits of all the of men in the spaces somewhere between the distant star and the skies.
 The sound of the six trumpets is in and we are very much afraid but wait! The seventh trumpet yet blow Surely Faith Hope, Charity need not fear to raise their sweet faces to the skies when its notes do sound.
