Farming is one of the most import
ant industries in China. In olden days
the Emperor to open the farming seas
on would turn. up a furrow and plant
to farm on hills which are very steep
They terrace these for their fields.
The chinese raise silk. cotton, tobac

been the chief course of the country fol-
years. They raise very few horses
cows or sheep and only once in while
you find pigs and chickens.

reason why there are SO many deaths

The women of China are considered
far inferior to the men and are made to

no chance for social life. The Chinese
are trying to introduce an education

WITH BIBLE PRO.
TECTS AGAINST SATAN'S SHARES

10 Tie
Jesus Christ is about to appear in
the glory clouds of heaven to the aston
ished gaze OF earth's millions, accom-
panied by myriads of angels. No spir
itual, deathbed vision. no appearance
Of a pretended Christ in the desert, nc
secret chamber manifestations of the
Lord can fulfill the emphatic and often
repeated words of scripture which say
that the Man of Galilee will come per
sonally, visibly, literally, and will be
seen by all.
THE bible plainly shows that before
the end of time Satan will impersonate
Christ. and will appear to men in diff
erent places of the world and at diff
ferent times as the most majestically
glorious being they ever beheld. Satan
who was once the highest angel in the
courts Of glory next to Christ will ap
parently perform some of the same
mighty miracles that Christ did while
He was upon earth, and will seem to
utter some of the same gracious truths
But woven with it will be the subtle er
ror of the deceiver. The cry will be
raised. Christ has come; Christ has
come This is overwhelming decep
tion
( 1T pays us to be well acquainted
with our bibles, that we may not be
ensnared with satan's wiles. Though
Christ, yet he will not be permitted to
come in the manner in which Christ
will appear. The bible tells US plainly
of the true Christ's coming. Behold
He cometh with clouds; and every eye
shall see Him, and they also which
pierced Him, and all hndreds of the
earth shall wait because of Him.
..Christ clearly and explicitly warn.
ed his disciples against deception, and
<ho ouovtIoc, words written in Matthew
"a AS are for our benefit, for we live
in the days when these things are
about to be fulfilled. Jesus said: Take
heed that no man deceive you. For
many shall come in my name, saying,
I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
Any many false prophets shall rise,
and shall deceive many. And because
iniquity shall abound the love of many
shall wax cold. But he that shall en-.
dure unto the end, the same shall be
saved
Christ will come in the clouds Of
heaven, in His own glory. the glory Of
His Father, and of all the mighty an.
gels, as we read in Luke 8: rs. He
will come in flaming fire taking ven.
geance on them that know not God,
and that obey not the gospel of our
Lord Jesus Christ; who shall be pun.
ished with everlasting destruction from
the presence of the Lord. and from the,
glory of His power, as we read in Sec
Ond Thessalonians /: 80.
"But to those who make their peace
with God. Christ will appear as a nigh.
ty deliyerer from the terrible condi.
tons in the world. AS He said in John
Ia: 1.3, In My Fathers house are many
mansions; if it were not so. l would
have told you.y I go to prepare a place
for you. And if ! go and prepare a
place for you, I will come again. and
receive you unto myself; that where
am, there We may be also"
Very sincerely yours.
