The Disciples Prayer
Continued from First Page)

1t is indescribable that men and women who
ever sat under John Alexander Dowie's teaching
could now accept Millennal Dawnism - the most
blasphemous religion Of modern times; teaching,
among other damnable heresies, the annihilation
of Jesus Christ
In the near future, God willing, we shall pre-
pare and print complete exposure Of blatant,
blasphemous Millennial Dawnism, or Russellism.
No one, unless he be in Grass ignorance of the
plain teaching Of the Word of God, could ever
collntenance such a system for one second!
We shall also deal once more with Christian
Science, which is both unchristian and antichris-
tian and is part OF the preparation for the reign
ol the Antichrist
Now, a few words i'll regard to the Disciples
Prayer
In our prayerful study of the prophecies reat-
ing to the Second Coming of Christ, we were COM
PEELED to take the position that the Disciples
Prayer (recorded in Matthew 6:0-13) was given
to Jewish disciples to be prayed prior to the Cruel
hxion, the Resurrection the Ascension, and the
descent of the Holy Spirit
We find that the leading writers on the Second
Coming of Christ are taking the same position,
and we therefore present to readers of THE
THEOCRAT an article, entitled, "The So-Called
Lords Prayer, by [. M. Hademan, of New York
City, one of the foremost writer's of the present
day on the Second Coming Of Christ.
We present also lengthy statement made by
A. c. Gaebelein of New York City, who stands
in the front ranks among the present writers on
the Second Coming of the Lord
After beginning the dictation of this article,
we discovered that Mark Matthews one of the
foremost writers on the Second Coming, in an
address recently delivered in Philadelphia on the
Subject, "The Doctrine of Our Lords Return"
said:
"Then on the Day of Pentecost the body of
Christ began formation, and on that same day
the body of the Antichrist began formation;
and the two have been growing together, like
the tares and the wheat, and will continue so
to grow until Christ destroys the tares. What
else2 Jesus the Christ left the Church in the
world. The Kingdom of God is not in the
world now. Lord, teach us to pray (To
whom did Christ teach that prayer? To some
Jews who had been converted Thy King
dom come, Thy will be done That prayer
will be prayed in the distant future and every
line will be answered"
We repeat again - and declare that the prayer
full study of the prophecies relating to the Second
Coming Of the Lord will compel every Christian
to take the same position - that the Disciples
Prayer Tin Matthew o:9-13) was given by Jesus
The theocrat. [volume] (Zion City [i.e. Zion], Ill.) 1914-1949, 1918-09-14

to Jewish disciples to be prayed prior to the Cruel
fxon, Resurrection, Ascension, and descent of the
Holy Spirit; that it was not given to the Church !;
that He never intended it to be used in the Church,
and that it never was used by any of the apostles
or in the Early Church
Rome made it part of its ritual and some
hand added the words, "For Thine is
the Kingdom and the power and the glory for
lever" These words are not found in the original,
and the Revised Version very properly leaves
them out
Yet men and women in their Grass ignorance
continue to repeat these words, like lot of
heathen and to put themselves on the other side
of the Cross instead of taking their proper place
in the body of Christ on this side of the Cross.
To the very same disciples to whom the Dis
ciples' Prayer was given, Jesus, as He stood in
the shadows of Gethsenane and Calvary Gas re-
corded in John 1923, "a, 2o), said:
Verify, verify say unto you, Whatsoever ye
Hitherto have We asked nothing in My Name:
ask, and We shall receive, that joy be full
AT that day We shall ask in My Name:
This side of the Cross and the Day of Pente
cost, we pray in Jesus Name and the power of
the Holy Spirit Prior to the Crucifxion and the
Day of Pentecost, they could not pray in Jesus
Name nor in the power of the Holy Spirit
The Disciples Prayer was given to Jewish dis
clpes to be prayed prior to the Day of Pentecost
and it will again be prayed by the Israeltis Rem
nant during the great tribulation - the last three
years and one-half Of Daniels Seventeen Week.
Let those who desire to have the light and are
willing to walk in the light, read this introduction,
then read the articles which follow, and they will
see very plainly that all students of the prophecies
on the Second Coming of the Lord are rapidly
coming to the position which we have announced
We know that the teaching which we have given
is from God, and that the Bride is now being pre-
pared and that very soon the finishing touches of
the preparation of the Bride, SO far as this earth
is concerned, will be completed
The Lord is coming, and He is coming soon
The thousands who worship in Shiloh Taber-
nacle are consecrated, happy lot of people.
Those who have refused to recognize leadership
and have gone away, are being buffeted hither
and thither by the doctrines of demons, and there
is terrible fate awaiting them unless they speed
lily repent and get back where they belong.

TO SECURE EXEMPTION.

Deferred occupational classification may be Sc
cured in four ways:
The registrant himself may claim it.
Pills employer or some other person i'm inter-
est may claim it for him.
3-The local draft board may recommend it to the
district board without action by the regtrant his
employer
4-The advisory board of the district board may
recommend it to the district board
But the full jurisdiction the occupatonal de-
erred classification lies in the district board it's
decision is final except for the appeal to the Presi-
dent The district advisory board is merely to make
recommendations, and the priorites preferential
list of the industries board is not binding the
district board to the essentially of any industry
or occupation.
The district board when claim for deferred CLASH
hcation for occupational reasons comes before it,
first will consider if the industry or occupation is
necessary to the maintenance of the military es-
Enlistment or the effective operation of the military
forces the maintenance of national interest during
the emergency"
If the occupation is held essential, the board will
then consider if the individual is essential to it,
NECESSARY INDUSTRIES.
In determining these facts, the new regulations
provide:
"The word necessary, as applied to any industry
or occupation or employment agricultural enter
prise, shall be taken to import that the discontn-
uance the serious interruption the materially re-
duced production thereof will result in substantial
material loss and detriment to the adequate and eff
fectve maintenance of the military establishment,
or the effective operation of the military forces
the maintenance OF national interest during the
emergency.
THE word necessary, as applied to the relation of
regstrant to an industry occupation or employ
ment or agricultural enterprise, shall be taken to
import:
THAT the registrant is actually and COM
pletely engaged in the industry occupation or
ployment agricultural enterprise in the capacity
recied in of the rules regarding deferred CLASH
fcation and that he is competent and qualified in
that capacity
"2-That the removal of the registrant would re-
suit in direct substantial material loss detrment
to the effectiveness of the industry or occupation or
employment or agricultural enterprise
3-That the available supply of persons COM
petent IN the capacity recited in the rule such that
the Resistant cannot be replaced in capacity
without direct substantial material loss and detri-
ment to the adequate and efficient operation of the
industry or occupation or employment or agricul-
tural enterprise"
WHEN MEN ARE ESSENTIAL.
In determining the essentially of the registrant
70 an essential occupation Gen. Crowder advises the
district boards to consider:
THE length of time the registrant has been
engaged in such capacity, and especially whether
the circumstances of the engagement are such as to

 At night we usually slept in the hay lofts of barns. many of which. judged by the appearance of their rickety old rafters must have served old Napoleon's warriors as "roesting quailers," resting places, also. After the end of an all day hike we were al- ways glad to hit said hay.
 We were told that when we reached our rest camp that we would be al- lowed a two weeks furlough to .kisit Aix le Bainnes, one of the most popular resorts in France, but un- fortunately for us after hitting camp we were ordered to pack up again and return directly to the front. Well yes, we were disappointed. but orders are orders, so we marched back to the front, singing: Hail! hail! The Gangs All Here So What the Hel, Do We Care Nowi"
 At the front we did not enjoy the enemy machine gun and shrapnel fire of which there was plenty and many times we had to lie on the ground and listen to the Boche bullets whiz- zing over us which was not a very comfortable feeling However we did enjoy the frequent fireworks displayed at night.
 We were finally relieved and packed up and hauled out O. K BROTHER FRED. Co. D. 102nd Machine Gun Battalion.

Lines Menus They Have.

Mrs. L. Rinella of T North Main street has received the following let ter from her son Frank, who is in the headquarters staff, stevedore regiment, somewhere in France:
 : May 6. 1918. My Dear Parents:-
 Just a few lines to Ietsyou know I am well and was very glad to hear the same from you.
 You wish to know how I am getting alone. Well, I can say that I have been very lucky to get in with a bunch of nice fellows and I get along fine with them. We have excellent mess, but for the present we do not use mess kits, although we have them. In fact, we haven't used them since we have been over here We have regular dishes, cups and everything. We have a table and colored fellow brings the meals to the table. We have plenty of sugar and in fact plenty of everything. We are certainly eating fine. You see, all of this couldn't be done with large company, but there is only thirty of us, so you see we can have lots of things that larger companies couldn't get We often buy Ea dozen eggs and give them to the cook and he keeps them in the kitchen and any time we want couple of eggs we just tell him and we get them. That's pretty good don't you think so :? To tell you the truth, I really think us fellows have it easier than you folks at home in regard to heat and meat, and about everything else, but would just as soon be at home for all of the heatless and meatless days,

sometimes. Ha! ha!
 You know I would like to be around where there is some fruit. 1 think l would make myself sick for while, as I am afraid I would not know when to stop. Fruit seems to be aw- ful scarce here; in fact, you don't seem to be able to get anything in that line
 see by the letter Rose sent that she thought of my birthday. We'll by gee I didn't even think of it myself, so you bet I was tickled to think the kiddies are thinking of me. I enjoy Frances letters very much, as well as the ones from Rose. I guess l cele- brated my birthday, as it was around that date one of the fellows got nice fruit cake and we did sure have a treat. I haven't received many letters from Norwich lately; there must be something wrong. 1 hope l get more in the future.
 We'll. dear parents not having any more to say, I will have to close for this time with love to all. My love to Uncle Joe and family and all the rest of the uncles and aunts. My best re- gards to Mrs. Wholly and all the boys and will remain always, With love,
 FRANK.
