and study the Zion literature, especially the
messages of John Alexander Dowie and
Wilbur Glenn Voliva, as found in the
bound volumes of LEAVES OF HEALING, The
THEoCRAT,' and various tracts yet on hand
in LEAVES OF HEALING office By so doing,
one and all in Zion may become indoctrin-
ated in the principles of Zion The liter
allure and the Bible will clearly reveal the
great principles and convictions underlying
the founding and perpetuation of the Chris
tan Catholic Apostolic Church in Zion.
Zion is more than a mere church, and
more than all the UNCONVENTIONAL or sectar-
ian churches heaped together They are
shot through and through with apostasy,
secretism and the so-called medical science,
which is only SO much medical bunk; and
they, one and all, are headed straight for the
scrap heap. Before the last Seven Years
are past they will be only so much old
Junk
Zion must be separate - must, like
Daniel, dare to stand alone
Zion is more than the Ecclesiastical, the
Educational, the Commercial and Political
Institutions and Industries Zion is all these
and more, much more
The day for soft pedaling, for comprom-
Using, for apologize preaching, is gone, and
gone forever, as far as Zion is concerned.
The sins of the whole world today are
like those of ancient Ninevah It's wicked
ness has gone up before God Swift, dire
and appalling judgments threaten.
Zion must be "the voice of one crying in
the wilderness" Her messengers must
speak with Divine authority The days de-
mand a stern, prophetic, Elijah, John the
Baptist, stentorian, uncompromising mes
sage. No other voice but Zion even tries
to deliver such "sons of Thunder" testi-
mony.
If you move along as though you were
treading on soft shel1ed eggs, you will never
cause the Devil and his gang to flee from
you.
All but Zion appears to be wearing soft,
velvet slippers, made smooth by sidestep-
ping the plain Word of God
Zion means the Theocracy, the Rule Of
God in all things
All hail to THE THEOcRACY!
Christ, the soon coming Supreme Theo-
crat, was born King!
All authority in the Heavens and on the
earth has been committed unto Him. Soon
He will exercise it in all its fulness.
Its first display (Seven Years. will be
apocalyptic. His Coming and Rule will
break on unbelieving Israel, an apostate
church and a goddess, Antichrist-accepting
world like the roar of the De1uge
Christ is coming to rule as KING OF
KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS - to
r111a md 10 II
The Christian Catholic Apostolic Church
in Zion proclaims now, this very day, His
absolute right to reign
That Reign will soon begin! Ha11e1ujah
The Church, glorifed, immortalized, con-
stituted His glorious Bride, is to reign with
Him. Let all the saints say Ha1elujah
again and again !!
All schemes and plans which leave out
Christ, as Masonry, the League of Nations,
the Revived Roman Empire, the Kingdom
of the North, ETC., will finally be torn up by
the ROOTS cast into the furnace of fire, the
Great Tribulation, and totally consumed.
All who spouse them will perish with
them. The Lake of Fire is now yawning
to receive them
Let one and all in Zion escape for their
lives.
Christ is Gods First and Last in all
things
Men everywhere must learn this Zion
must teach all that autocracy and democracy
are both doomed to a miserable and eternal
failure. The Rule of the People is not of
God, but of the Devil 1t will yet perish
from the earth; for it Gas we'll as autocracy)
is not the Rule of God.
In Zion, all are THEOCRATS ~ men
and women who believe only in the Theo-
cracy, the Rule of God in all things in
Heaven and on earth, and seek only to es-
tablish it speedily.
every human being to Jesus the Christ as
the Living and Soon Coming King - Gods
Supreme Theocrat
Christs Kingdom is not worked up out
of this world Christ's Kingdom comes
suddenly out of the opened Heavens.
It will fall as mighty, crushing Stone |!
Falling suddenly out of Heaven, it will
crush all other kingdoms, leagues and con-
federacies, grinding them to powder.
Theocrats make no distinction between
essentials and non-essentia1s in the things
of Gods Book; between sacred and secular
things. To them all things of God are
sacred; everything should be set apart to
God and His glory. Nothing on the face
of the whole earth should be kept back
from Him.
Some, professedly in Zion, never have
learned the beginning of this principle ;
others have learned it only in part. Neither
of these two classes could sing, 81 Surren-
der ALL" for it would be an awful lie.
Jesus Christ is Lord of All (Acts 1O:36).
Christianity is Theocracy. That which is
