The Eternal God, The Source OF
Help, Revelation 7:9-17, for Sun
day, September IA:
Revelation was written especially
for the Christians of that day who
were greatly prosecuted; and, be-
cause of their persecution, much
use was made of symbols and fig
ures of speech such as is not found
In another book of the Bible. 1t is
not book of theology but one Of
fering encouragement to be faith
ful unto death.
V. 9. CATER this I beheld, and,
10 great multitude, which no man
can number, of all nations, and
kindreds and people, and tongues,
stood before the throne, and before
the Lamb, clothed with white robes,
and palms in their hands" To keep
in mind the final triumph of the
Christian life serves to help one to
be faithful. The life to come will
be spent with a large company Of
worthwhile people, with Christ in
the center, all wearing the uniform
Of white robes and shouting victory.
V. 10. ''And cried with a loud
voice, saying, Salvation to our God
which sitteth upon the throne, and
unto the lamb The shouting in
heaven will surpass any shouting
on earth such as may be heard at
games or political meetings because
of the fact that salvation is worth
shouting about. Salvation calls for
more shouting here because of what
It is.
V. II. "And all the angels stood
round about the throne, and about
the elders and the four beasts, and
fell before the throne upon their
faces, and worshipped God" Note
that the main program in the world
to come Is worship. How do you
suppose one will enjoy heaven if he
does not delight to worship God
here. Better attend church today.
v. IL. Saying, Amen: Blessing
and glory, and wisdom, and thanks
giving, and honor and power, and
might, be unto our God for ever and
ever" Let it be remembered that
the source and cause of all wisdom,
Thanksgiving, honor, power and
might is God, and all praise for
take any credit to himself in this
life for these attainments.
v. 13. "And one of the elders an
swered, saying unto me, What are
these arrayed in white robes? and
whence came they?" There will be
many surprises in heaven, surprises
to see some folks not expected and
surprises that some are absent who
were expected. 1t is significant
that we always happily surprise 9TH
.ers. The claim is made that the ell
der here indicated means the
church; if so, then the church
speaks with authority today.

thou knowest, and he said unto me,
these are they which came out of
great tribulation. and have washed

their robes, and made them white in
the blood of the Lamb" Picture
the prosecuted Christians to whom
these words were addressed. There
is one thing each of us ought to
know, namely, in what direction we
are going; no one ought to be satis-
fed unless that way be .heavenward.
Since Christ is the Way, we must
accept him on the cross where our
redemption is made.
V. Is. Therefore are they be-
fore the throne of God, and serve
him day and night in the temple;
and he that sitteth upon the throne
shall dwell among them" Here we
have the word, "serve'' used as a
part of the program in heaven. The
details of service are not given. 1t
is worship of God and service for
God that constitutes the program on
earth and in heaven. We have six
days for service here and one for
worship if we live right in the sight
of God. There is dignity in living
when one makes his six days SER
vice really count for God.
V. 16. "They shall hunger no
more, neither thirst any more;
neither shall the sun light on them,
nor any heat" The early Christians
knew what it meant to be hungry
and thirsty because of their perse-
cutions; they also knew what it
meant to be exposed to the burning
hot sun. Due recompense will be
given to all who suffer. God will
make things right in due time.
V. II. For the Lamb which is
in the midst of the throne shall
feed them, and shall lead them to
the living fountain of waters; and
God shall wipe away all tears from
their eyes," Heaven will be place
of perfect bliss.

Discussions questions on the Sun
day school lesson for Sept. IA.
L. In what sense are the robes
made white in the Lamb of God?
2. How does trouble, when TAX
en- in the right sense, deepen and
enrich our lives?
3. What is meant by serving
God in the next world?
4. In what ways is the condition
of saints in heaven better than the
conditions of Christians on earth
5. If heaven is such desirable
place, why is it that so few are
making preparation to dwell there?
Glorious says: "In Gods celestial
empire the first emphasis is upon
attitudes of hearts and minds. This
should be suggestive to us. The
spirit which reigns in our hearts
day by day is vastly more import
ant than anything we do"
Lesson prayer: 1--WE pray for the
courage and faith to endure hard
ship and all sufferings necessary to
our redemption, knowing that, IN
due time, We may receive a heaven
ly reward so great that it can be
told us now only in figures or
speech"

| Before they embarked on what
they knew would be a long and
perilous voyage to the New World,
oppression and want had made
those settlers mentally ready for
the ordeal OF making the voyage
and of establishing new homes in
an unknown wilderness. In those
new homes they intended to, ana
did, put restraints upon themselves.
but only such restraints as seemed
to them to be just reasonable. Thus
they got away from oppression.
Working under those restraints.
and with the natural resources of q
virgin land at their disposal, those
early white settlers also conquered
want. But when the British gov
ernment undertook to levy taxes up
On them without their consent, they
left that their dearly bought free
dom from oppression and want was
threatened. Then came their first

or to the bringing about of a basic
change. II they submitted to the
will of the British government.
there would be a basic change back
to the oppression and want that had
driven them over a perilous sea to
a perilous New World If they
threw off the yoke of the British
government, they would preserve
their already bought freedom from
oppression and want, and they
would make the basic change Of set
ting up their own government, sub.
ject only to themselves.
Despite formidable opposition from
within, as well as from the British
government, those settlers, or colon-
lists, nevertheless undertook to. and
eventually did, set up their own
government, subject only to the con-
sent of the governed. Their first
discovery thereafter was that their
new government had to be some
thing more solid than a mere con-
federation, whereupon they made
another basic change. That change
gave them the Constitution of the
United States of America, which set
up the Federal Government. That
Federal Government still survives.
Many were the misgivings about
how such government would work.
Chattel slavery, because it would
involve property rights as we'll as
custom in the south, eventually did
bring about a most severe test OF
the solidity of the nation set up un-
ler the Constitution of the United
States. Yet, that nation, our own.

dent to the abolition of chattel slav-
cry. And that was a basic change

shange for the south.
Custom and property rights are
involved in another basic change
which we must, somehow, make
without destroying self-reliance.

moving down individual produc-

individuals opportunity to provide

THE AMERICAN WAY

Before ever there was a United

That American way arose out of
the great change encountered by
