mortal in struggle which involves
the fate of human souls.
He is not tribal or partisan God,
bound to fight for us, regardless OF
our deserving. His friends and fol-
lowers are in all nations. No doubt
the countries opposing Hitler today
are themselves being punished for
their sins; God could not sustain
His moral nature were He indiffer-
ent to our fragrant trangresslonS of
His clear law. Every approach to
His thorne, in these times OF sore
distress, needs to be preceded by a
hearty confession of sin, national as
we'll as personal. We do not really
deserve the help of Omnipotence,
upon which we yet must rely.
AS the Revelator pointed out the
sins of the Seven Churches, so the
modern teacher must deal faithfully
with a people who are only travel
ing by the momentum of their godly
ancestors" This is an hour for hon.
est heart-searching. All churches
should be thronged by penitents in
prayer. Periods of public prayer
should be established: as in South
Africa, where for two minutes every
day all work and all movement stop,
while the people pray. The Father
delights to be entreated of His chill
dren; and, in His own wise way,
answers their prayers.

we are in unison with the best
thought of all the ages when we
contend that mans life compre-
hends two worlds; and that earth is
a prelude to Heaven. True religion,
as ample evidence proves, makes
earth ever liken to Heaven; real
progress of humanity down the CEN

consciousness that Gods will for the
world must eventuate in diviner
order of everyday life.
Nevertheless, like this Book of
Revelation, all scripture makes clear
that Heaven is the final factor in
earth's order. Man lives nobly here
when he is assured that he is to
live hereafter. Modern materialism
makes light of Heaven; Jesus and
the Bible make much of Heaven.
Johns glorihcation of the Christian
martyrs runs like a thread of gold
throughout the Book of Revelation.
The reward of Heaven is the comfort
of earth. It is the men and women
who know themselves citizens of
eternity who walk most worthily in
this present life.
A Vision of Victory.
For this weeks study, the Inter
national Lesson Committee has
chosen a passage from the ReVela-
tion of unsurpassed literary beauty
words that open a window to
vision of victory designed to sustain
our earthly warfare. I quote them
entire: After this I beheld, and,
10, great multitude, which no man
could 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; and cried
with loud voice, saying, Salvation
to our God which sitteth upon the
throne, and unto the Lamb. And
throne, and about the elders and
the four beasts, and fell before the
throne on their faces, and wor-
shipped God. saying, Amen: Bless
ing, and glory, and wisdom, and
Thanksgiving, and honor, and power,
and might, be unto our God for
ever and ever. Amen. And one
of the elders answered, saying unto
me, What are these which are ar
rayed in white robes? and whence
came they? And I said unto him,
Sir, 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
Therefore are they before the throne
of God, and serve him day and
night in His temple. and he that
sitteth on the throne shall dwell
among them. They shall hunger nc
more, neither thirst any more;
neither shall the sun light on them
nor any heat. For the Lamb which
is in the midst of the throne shall
feed them. and shall lead them unto
living fountains Of waters; and Coo
shall wipe away all tears from their
eyes"

sons who do not commonly pray turI
The deepest impulses of the human
heart lead naturally to God.
This blind faith is warranted. AS
we study the mysterious Book OF
Revelation, much of it beWildering
and beyond our fathoming, we find
it interspersed with clear reassur-
ances of the might and majesty and
triumph of the Eternal, John, the
author, pictures fearsome woes for
the Christians; but he never fails to
bring the dire conditions straight up
to the reality of a victorious God.
1t makes all the difference what kind
of God a man has.
Revelation was written to Chris
tians under the iron harrow of per-
secution. Martyrdom was prevalent.
All the woes inflicted by Hitler,
which seem to us superlative in
horror, are small when seen along
side of those early Christians suf-
fered for the Names sake. Yet they
were vindioated by the ultimate vic
tory. Triumph was assured for all
who were on the side of the Lord. 1t
takes a Heaven to complete Gods
thought of mankind.
