GOSPEL MESSAGE
THE MYSTERY OF 1NIQUITY
By REV. CARL LAYNE

In PauIs second letter to the
church at Thessalonica there ap-
pears a strange statement that
aroused certain amount of Gu
rosity in me. had a deeply root
ed desire to dig into it and find
out what Paul meant when he
said: "For the mystery on iniqui-
ty doth already work: only he
who now letteth will let, until
he be taken out of the way" 2
Thess. 81. The first part of this
statement is what l did not I'M
derstand For the mystery of
iniquity doth already work"
In my study of this subject I
discovered that it was one of the
most fascinating studies for the
student of history or the student
of scripture. Historians will tell
you that there is an orderly and
systematic development that runs
all the way through history from
the beginning of the record of
man on earth to this present
hour. And students Of scripture
and history know that from two
different viewpoints. They know
it from both the record which
man has made of himself, and
then they know it from the re-
cord that God has made of man.
What is the mystery of ini-
guilty? This answer may not sat
isfy your thinking along this
line, but it will suffice for me.
The mystery of iniquity is the
activity of great unseen, super

natural and wicked power that is
back behind the outward events
that we see with the natural eye,
that is in direct opposition to the
will of God. In other words, the
mystery of iniquity is the acti-
witty of the Devil. And let me say
here the activity of Satan is not
just hit or miss haphazard, here
and there. The activity of Satan,
our enemy, the enemy of every
being that is in harmonious re-
lationship with God, and the en-
envy of the Father, Son and Holy
Spirit is working toward a very
clear cut and we'll defined end
and objective. That end and OBJ
jective and the course which Sa-
tan is following to achieve that
end and that objective, is the
mystery of iniquity.
The reason the mystery Of in
iquity does not bring forth his
masterpiece and achieve his end,
and aim and his objective is be-
cause, "Only he who now letteth
will let, until he be taken out
of the way" The Holy Spirit
binders or prevents the mystery
of iniquity from breaking loose
upon humanity with unimagin-
able fury.

Stock Prices Steadied
|by Late Demand
|For Rail Issues
BY VICTOR EUBANK.
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, Jan. 18.-Belated
buying in the rails, coincident with
submission of the ting
unions wage agreement to Stabiliza-
ton Director Vinson, steadied to-
days stock market after an early
sluggish selloff had put leaders down
fractions to point or SO.
The downward drift in the morn
ing was attributed partly to Wall
Streets concentration on the big
war loan drive. There also was
profit-taking by customers who
feared something was "in the wind
because of the Moscow rumor of
British-Geerman peace talks and
thoughts of possible Allied disunity
over the Russian-P Polish row.
Lack of any serious liquidation
however, was evident from the
cloudy opening on and this brought
reinstatement of commitments here
and there in the final hour. Near
closing gains for carriers ran to
around point. but top prices were
reduced and losses elsewhere were
we'll distributed. Activity picked up
as the transportation division re-
vived. Transfers for the full
proceedings approximated 100000

Wholesale Price Index
Up SliqhtIy in Week

The weekly wholesale commodity
price index, compiled by the Ma
tional Fertilizer Association, ad-
vanced to 1867 in the week ending
January Is from 1864 in the pre-
ceding week. A month ago this
index stood at 1854 and a year age
at 1887, based on the l935-l93e
average as 100.
The increase in the general leve,
of the all-commodity price index
was due principally to higher prices
for crude petroleum in the Texas
Panhandle which, in turn. caused
quite sharp increase in the fuels
index number. The foods prices
remained firm during the past week
with no changes.

February Petroleum Quotas
Cut Slightly by PAW
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Allowable petroleum production
for February was fixed at 4,70l 900
barrels daily by the Petroleum Ad-
ministration for War today. The
figure represents decrease of $3.50
barrels from the January rate.
The PAW ordered slight decreases
in the East and Midwest fields to
conform to reduced capacity. Wy
oming production was reduced 1900
barrels a day because of diversion
of tankcars from the State to the
East coast.
Production figures for the South
west were left virtually unchanged,
while California fields were author
lied to produce 9,400 barrels more
due to increased requirements on
the Pacific Coast.
