Alone ill my room in Bombay. early in the morning of J anuary 28, 1908, T sat down to read the Bible. )'Iy regular read­ing for the day began at John 1. \Vhen I I·eached vcrse 18 the Spi rit cmphasizcd the words "ill tilt> bosom of the' Falher," saying them over and ovcr so that I could not go on reading but kneeled with Ill)' face ncar the n OO l" and (·yes closed to wait His further speaking." Soon 1 seem cd to see hC;l\'cl1 full of g'lury and music and thrones and angels. In the midst was the Father and 1Ii ') Son. In a short lime a\l receded except the two divine Beings standing alone facing each other. 1 marvelled at the likeness of the Two, and then the words came, "The ex­press image of lIis person." I noticed throughout the re\'elation that Jesus was so gentle, yielded and sweetly calm while the Father seemed full of intense feeling.

As I con ti nued looking at them rapt in adoration the Father stretched cut His hands to clasp those of His Son. I glanced at the hands 0 f J e StlS almost hidden under 1-1 is long' loose sleeves. He seemed to wish to hide the scars, which cause not only joy but pain in heaven.

After a moment He shook back the sleeves, and as IIe gave His hands to l lis Father, 1 saw the scars not as I had imagined, on the surface, but deep like holes. The Father with tears rolling down 11is checks kissed the scarrcd hands ag-ain and again. Then lIe kissed the thorn marks on the pure white fore­head and pushing the l obe apart kissed the pierced side and then stooped with many tears and kissed the wounded feet.

. \ft erwards H e arose still weeping and clasped 11 is Son in H is arms. Jesus huried His face on His Father's breas t and the Spirit whispered to me, "In the ho~olll of the Father." 1 wa<; wceping

much but said to God, "Oid YOli always love 1lim so?" Turning to me lIe snid, ",\lways." ~[y spirit became almost fie rce with pain and I exclaimed vehe­nl(;ntly, "Theil why did You let ll im go to the cross? !low could You let Him !::p uller so? Oh, even if we had all gone to hell, how could You do it?" He gazed at me silent ly awhile and then said, "For you," and after a pau"e. "1)0 yuu now hdic,:\,c r love you?" ?ly heart was brok­en at such love for J esus and for me .

.\1\ day long- as J looked up r saw Thelll standing so, clasped III Fach Otht'r's arllls. Only onc(' Jeslls raised I lis face and looked at IllC. Oh that ht:!utiful fact'! It was full of the glory ot Cod.

The next morning as SCIOli a ... I arose tilt, Spirit r believe repeated ag-ain and a~aill lhe word", ".·Is III\' Fatha hath l~.'ctl mc C"£'II so ho.!C I 107.'rti )'011."

\\,ill there he any opposition to this Hussian IIl VaS ioll ? Look at verse 13, "Sheba, and Dcciall, amI the merchants of Tar!-ihish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, A rt thou come to tah a spoi l ? hast thou gathered thy com­pan)' to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold , to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil ?" S heba and Dedan can he Identi fied as the tribes of Arabia who furnished over one hundred thou­sand men in the last war to help Britain dri ve the Turks out of Palestine. "The merchants of T arshish," the "ships of Tarsh ish"; these two are lIsed in Scrip­tun' proph('cy to indicate a modern mari­t ime power. The greatest of modern lIIariti ml.' powers is G rc.1.t Britain. S he has 1I10r(' sh ips than any other nation . That thi s ilientillcatiol1 is correct is C011-

finncd hy the expression "with all the young liolls thcreof," the lion a smybol of Bri ta in.

\Vho arl.' these young lions? They are Britain's co loniC's. Canada, Allstralia. l\('w Zt·aland. South .\fr ica. and the United States. Though the political hond i ~', hrokcn hetween us and Great Britain we are a young lion of Great Britain. The young lion possesses the nature of the mother lion. A ll these lands were settled hv the same nation. and speak the same la;lguage. This is the one sure place where 1 find the United States in prophccy. Our flag and our boys helped Britain in thc last war, a kind of rehears­al for the last great war. and they will be with Britain in Palestine seeking to aid in stemming that great Russian invasio11. "They shall say unto thee. Art thou come

to take a spoil ?" That one sentence re­vea ls to us that whatever may happen be­tween now and thcn, Britain will be in Palestine then .

Ld us note the divine purI,X>se of this invas ion, for God also is concerned, God has a hand in it. "Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord God; J n that day when my peo­ple of Jsrael dwelleth safely, sha1t thou not know it? And thou shalt cOllle from thy place out of the north pat1S, thou, and many people with thee ... and thou shalt come lip against my people of Is­rael, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall b" in the latter days, and J will bring thee agaillst my land." Do you see the divine hand in it? \\lhy docs God bri ng this vast multitude of armics against lsrael? Be­c.., usc of the awful insul t that the J ews will o fTer to the Lord J esus when they accept the Antichrist as their Messiah . \Vc read of it in Dan. 9 :27.

Our Lord Jesus refer­red to thi s reception o f the Antichrist in John 5 :43, "1 am come in my Father's name. and ye recei\'e mc not: if another shall come in his own namc. him \'e will receive."

":\l1d I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen (the nations) may know lI1e, when I sha ll be sanctified in theC!, 0 Gog, before their eycs ." The na­tions don't seem to care for 11im, but they know about llim sufficiently to be held responsible. A nd God will bring them il1to judgment, for the Lord has a "controversy with the nations." In con­nection with these two chapters read krcmiah 25. <lEvil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall he raised tip from the coasts of the earth. And thc slain o f the Lord shall be at that da\' from one end of the earth ('\'en unto -the other cnet of the earth"­not confined 10 little Palcstine. \Vhen this awful conAict is carried on, and God t('I"minates it, He will he shown to be the living God. the God of prophecy, of his­tory, and of the nations. And lIe Him­self in the Person of His beloved Son will take the dominion of the whole ea11h (Hevela!;on lJ).

"And it shall cOl11e to pass at the same time when Gog shall come agai nst the bnd of Israel, sa ith thc Lord, that my 'fury shall come up in my face." v. 18. \\'hen God's face reddens and Ife dis­plays H is ange r what will happen to those hosts of men? <'Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land o f Israel.'· There shall be a shaking of those lI1('n and they will turn every man against his brother (verse 21). «I will plead ag-ainst him with pestilence and with blood; and 1 will rain upon him, and up­on his hands. and upon the Illany people that are with him. 3n overflowi ng rain, and great hail stones. fire, and brimstone." Tn the next chapter God speaks of a sac· rince to wh ich H e call s the birds of the heavens and the beasts of the earth.

«And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse: and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and Tme, and in righteousness he dot h judge and make war. His eves were as a flame o f fire, and on his ' head wen! many crowns." This is the One who said, "The foxes ha\'e holes. and birds of the air ha\'e nests; but the Son o f man hath not where to lay his head." In R ev. 1-4 :14 we read. "And upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown," the crown o f universal domin ion. He it is who is worthy and wholly efficient to take the government o f this earth. And we read, "Out of his

The B ook wIth a Blessing At the ('nd of the Revelation we read

these words from the Lord Himself, "Be­hold, I come qu ickly: blessed is he that keepi..:lh the sayings of the prophecy of thi s book." I<.ev. 22:7. \Vhat is meant by keeping the sayings? Do YOll remem­ber at the fir!-,t advcnt of Christ, the COIll­

ing of thc htilvcnly hosts to the shepherds with a speci:ll message, and many other st range things taking place? Were they all understood? Apparently not. But we read, ;, )<.Iary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart." t il like manner should we treasure and ponder in our hearts the wonderful slOry of our Lord's second advent as it is given in this last book of the Bible.

The Simplicity of the Book I was one day traveling by rail in the

I ~ast and was reading a volume of Dr. Seiss' J ,ectUf(.'s on the Apocalypse. An intelligent looking man who shared my scat looked at the book I was reading and sa id , "\Vhat is the mean ing of that word Apocalypse?" I answered, "That is just thc G reek word for unveiling, T his book is n. commentary on Revelation." "Ugh!" he g-runted, "nobody can understand that boole" I told him o f a little girl who was cOIl"tn.ntly reading it, who wa" ask­ed why she always chose to read the R('velation in preference to any other books of the Bible. "Oh," she replied, "this is the on ly book I can understand." Bring a childlike heart and a childlike mind to the study of this book, and you A'ill find it dclightfully simple,

Near at Hand A good man issued an edition o f Bun­

yan's (Iilgrim's Progr(,ss with a number of explanatory notes. He presented a COPy to an old lad\' and afterwards waited 011 'her to get her opinion of his book. ller answer was, "I can unde rstand all the things ~ l r. B unyan wrote, sir, and J am hoping the day will come when T shall be able to understand your explana­tory notes." I have to confess that whi le I love to read the Revelation itsel f, I am yet too ignorant to understand most men's explanatory notes, for I find them con­fusing and contradictory, There is a blessing promised to those who read and hear and keep the things written in the book, and I want to receive this blessing.

power-that bc<\st that Daniel speaks of a.!: "dreadful and terrible, and strong ex­ceedingly," with "great iron teeth," the teeth that devoured ten millions of the saints of the early church. \Vhat must havc been John',:; thoughls in that prison exile? He may have been tempted to think that the power of Rome was tri­umphing, and that perhaps after all the cause of Christ would not prevail. Uut all his doubts and fears must have vanished when he was "in the Spirit on the Lord's day." \Vhat a revelation he receivcd of the triumph of the Lamb, a revelation that must have cheered his own heart, and that has since cheered the heart of ncry suffering sai nt who has read the record from that day to this.

A C leansed Church At the beginning of the book J ohn

sums up its message, "Behold, lIe cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see 11 im, and they also which pie rced H im: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him. Even so, Amen." He is com­ing to establish His righteousness on the earth, and to rcmove iniquity from the same. The contents of this book show how J [e will accomplish the task. We see J I im here bringing His judgment upon all iniquity. And where does lIis judg­ment begin? At the house of God. Every evil thing must be purged. Every Jeze­bel must be removed. All the lukewarm, to use His own expression , will lle "spue out" of His mouth. There must be a church without spot or wrinkle or any such thing. From His churches lIe is go­ing to havc a company of overcomers to ~hare H is throne with IIim .

By Faith and By His Blood ' ·Vhat const itutes an overcomer? H\Vho

is he that overco1l1cth the world, bu t he that b('lieveth that Jesus is the Son of God?" "For whatsoever is born o{ God o\"e rcometh the world: and this is the victory. that overcollleth the world, (J'l.'(J11

ollr faith." How do we obtain faith? The Book tells us, "Faith cometh by hearing. and hearing by the word of God." ROI11~ 10:17. That is why we should constantly read the '''lord of God. "By grace are ye saved through faith: and that not of yourselves : it is the gift of God." Eph. 2.:8.

Judgment of the Nations Civil and ecclesiast ical powers were

both arrayed against Christ, "The kings of the earth stooel up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ. For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus ... both IIerod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people a f I srael, were gathered to­gether." nut in this vision John saw a complete reversing of all this. At the sounding of the seventh angel , John heard a great voice in he;1\"en saying, "The king­doms of this world arc becomc the king­doms of our Lord. and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever." Our hearts will surely be completely sat is­fied \ .... he11 we see our preciolls Jesus crowned King of kings, and Lord of lords. Thank God, "the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite is but for a momcnt." Our reigning Christ will adjust everything when He returns.

The Judgment of the Great Whore The worst th ing on earth today, worse

than its profligacy and its banditry, is its false religion. It is this which is de­ceiving the kings of the earth and all the nations. In contrast to the Church. the pure bride of the Lamb, John refers to the false chu rch as "the great whore." Can we identi f y this "mother of har­lots"? Yes, there is a clear mark of iden­tification. "The seven heads are seven mountains 0 11 which the woman sitteth." J{c\,. 17 :9. An early coin of Rome showcc[ <l woman sitt ing on sevell mountains. T his apostate woman is to come into judg­ment. Goel is going to raise up ten horns -ten kings and ;'the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her deso­late and naked, and shall cat her flesh, and burn her with fire." And as she views the scene from the glory, the Lamb's true Church will send up a great shout, IIAl_ Icluia . for true and righteous arc His judgments: for He hath judged the great whore. . and again they said, Alleluia.'~

The Judgment of the Serpent The serpent appeared in the garden of

Eden and scored a great trium ph over the first pai r, but in that ga rden the Lord God gave a prophecy. Speaking to. the serpent He said, "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and~ between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt brui se his heel." At Calvary the serpent seem­ed to t riumph as he bruised the heel o f the Seed o f the woman. But in the Rev­elation we see the Seed of the woman shattering the head of the serpent and

bringing l1is judgment on all the serpent's seed. The serpent's kingdom comes to its h('aci in his beast (literally, wild beast, H.c\". 13: 1). who seems to head up all (:I\"il afTair:;, supported by a further heast (1{e\', 13: 11) who 5CCI11S to head up all Ihing-s {'cclcsiastical. But as at the beginning the serpent triumphed o\"er the first pair, Sf} at the end the last pair, con­sisting of the Lamb anel llis Bride. will triumph O\'er the serpent and his brood. ]n I{l'\-, 19:11-21 we sec the !'iCrpcllt being <:asl into the boltomlcs<.; pit, and later ' .... e sec him thrown into the lake of fire.

OPIUM CURSE IN CH INA In a recent lett er from Brother and S ister

Osgood in Sou thwest China, we read: "Yullnan province is perhaps th e 1II0st te rrilJly cursed by opiulll of all the p rovinces of China. Out o f nearly a IHlIIdre d homes in Chi Tien, there are only fi\·(' whi ("\l ;'Ire fn.'(' from the use of th e drug! !'.Iell arc o ld a number of years be~ fore th e)' should he, th ei r !:Ices drawn, their checks sunken and the ir am bit ion go ne.

''.\fte,· Christmas Da\'id H o of \Vei Hsi came to hold evangelis tic meetings for us. David is Brothc r Bolton's evangci ist, and a finer man it would be hard to find anywhere. Pray for liS

that God will send us such :l man to wor k with tiS permanently. lIis prayer life is vcry ea rn ~ e;;t, and from the beginning he was eager for 'he work. During- the day we wen t out into the villages that lie in thi s vall ey, and called th e people toge th er to listen to th e wonderful old sto ry. The re sponse was most gratifying. E \'c rywh cre th e people were respectful and anx~ ious to li ste n. Da\'i d has an accordion, and its big \'olume is fin e for drawing the crowds.

"\Vhi le David was with us we had thc privilege of going across the river to dedicate tlte home of old Daddy Loh 10 th e l.ord. l\fr. Loh and hi ~ family have been won throug-h the faithful witnessing of Dr. J 10. ~rr. Loh has smoked opium for O\'cr thirt y years, and the family is pO\'ert y ~t ric ken because of it, but no\\" he is definit ely trusti ng God to break th e habit. H e sa id to me, 'Pastor, 1 am becoming a Christian not because I want anything you can give me , but I want to make heaven, and r believe you know the \\'ay. I am old. but I w;l. nt 10 leave

thtse fal~e things, ~o I ask rou to lead me to lind the true \\·3Y.'

"The evening services here at Lah Sh Bah wcre well attl'nc!cd and inte rest was good. Two young men came to the a l'ar for prayer, and we belic\'c there arc others, too. who arc almost ready \0 turn to the Lord."

MISS IONA RY TRAVEL, S. CHINA Lu la Bell H ou gh

I havc had to do conside rable traveling late~ Iy, trying :0 get the gospel out into the villages where the people have never heard. Traveli ng in South China affords many varied exper iences. A slwrt time ;'Igo I madc a th ree weeks' trip up to the Pan Kong District, in company with another missionary. \\'c left T'sing Yuen by hus anel changed 10 what wa!> called a fast boat at the fool of the mountains, but we failed to sec why the boat was so called. The boat was only fifty feet long and eight feet wide, and carri('d iorty passengers, so you can imagi ne how crowded we were .. \fte r a six hours' ride th('re came a deluge of rain, but we, being still eight miles from the nea res t Chinese inn, had to bear it.

\\'hen we reached the inn we were soa king wet and cold. Afte r warming oUl'selves by an open fire in the center of the 1" 00111 we retired to ol1r room. Cohwebs \\"l're hanging cvery­where, and one corne r wa,> occupied by geese, which cn tertained us wilh specia l music at in~ tCl"\'als during the night. Our room was rea lly a hall where peop le had to pass through, and our bed was on ly a hoard. The ncxt night we ~pent in Sha J foh, and wcre th ankfu l to find no geese in our room, bllt soon discovered ther e were pigs in the room just he low us. After rice nex t morning we got on an other small boa t and went ups tream for six o r seven miles to Paak Shek T'aam. and we were certain ly glad to reach o ur destination.

\\ 'hil e there wc went 0 11 ' into the villages c<lch dar. walking from si x to fif teen miles a nd preaching th e gospel wher('yer we found an opc n door. In some o f th ese villages we were .the firs t foreig-ners th e villagers had cver seen, and in many, the first to pre<lch thc gospel. God has p romised that JIi s \\ 'ord sha ll not return unt o Him void, so we believe tha t if we are f;'lithiul in proc1aimins;:- the gospel, He will be faithful in drawing sou ls unto Himself .

Forty-eight pra yed through to salvatio n, and 8 received the Bapt ism wit h the Holy Ghost; also the sick were healed and the church greatly st rengthened and edifi ed. It wa s good to sec the tabernacle, 50xSO, filling up with people. The evangelist \\a :. asked by om Young People to !,pcak at the county jail. , \ 5 be told the story of Chri!>t the po wer of the Spirit calllC down on <'a ch prisoner, many wepl, same trembled with call vi et ion, and (. prayed through to a real experience o f sa l\,atiOIl. The e\'angeli~t said it was the g reat c!>t jail serv ice he had ever witnes sed.

HE;';!). OHE.-~Ir s . Freeman and 1 left Oro no</ uc, Kan s., \vhe re we were in charge of the work, an d came to Bend last June, and found a sma ll band of Pentecostal peo­ple on fire for God. Since that time 20 have knelt at the altar for sa lvation; and six have recei\'ed the H o ly Spirit according to Act s 2 :4. God has truly blessed the services : many have been healed; blind eyes are being opened; deaf ears unstopped; and high blood pressure and g oiter arc being healed. A wOlllan who had epileptic convulsions and whom docto rs had gi ven up, was healed and is now an active member in th e assembly. A young lady had an ab scess in the back of each of her eyeballs. Several doclors gavc her up: she was totally blind in ont eye and almost blind in the other. She would walk around in the daytime with h er eyes closed to see how it would feel wh en shc wouiet be totally hlind. She was anoint­('(I according to the Word and prayer was offered. and now she can see to read the smalles t prin t; shc has also r eceived the J [oly Ghost.

TilE WAY A story full of meaning and inspiration was

related by Mr. lJalgetty, all 111diall mission· ary. lie sa id that many years ago, away out in the northwcM of India, 111 the land of the fi"'e riH!r' , he was aroused at three o'clock in the l1IorniTlJ.( to go lhrouf{h a desert and to pass a buried ci ty of ancicnt dalc. The morning was vcry dark. J li s leader and guide was a (iark-<;kinIlCc\ man who ~aid to him in his own 1<!IlKlla~e, "Kl'CP close tf, me." .\s they went through the darkness, the guide fir~t. and ~fr. J)algetty foIlO\\illl{. they talkL"(1 to each other, and by and by as he looked down at his feet, he eOllld sec 110 road. They ~eemed to be turning thi s way and that way, and going on and 011. and he fcaret! the way was missed. and ill his anxiety of heart he cried, "\Vhcre is Ihe way?" and the guide turned around and s.,id ill the words of Christ Ilimself, "f am the wa\·. There is 110 way to be seen. but here with me. Follow stcp by ~tCJl wi th me, and the cnd 01 the journey will come." And it Ctlme. We necd day by day, as life goes on, to conccntrate less and less upon the road, and more and more UPOI1 the Guide.

Mr. Bahson, olle of th e greatest stati s­t icians, makes Ihis strikinR statement: "The greatest undevel ope d resouree of o ur country is failh,' the ~n'ate~t unused power is prayer."

April 21, 1934

LE.\Vl:\G ALL :\ \o'calthy man died in a manufacturing town.

and t\O,o aCCluaiut.1nees were eagerly discussing his reputed riches. "Do you know how much he's left? .. "lIe's left all," replied the other. and he: uttered a <;olellm truth for all to pon­da, whdh<:r rich or poor. Sad indf!ed it is when their "all" consists of earthly possessions, fr)r "hell Ihe time comes "to quit," how ap­palling is the state of destitution of the soul which faces all who arc "not rich toward God."

GOIl'S YOKE The superintendent of a mission school

read thc text: "~Jy yoke is easy." Turning to the children, she asked, "\Vho

can tell mc what a yoke is?" .\ !ittle girl of ten said , ,·It is something

they put on the n eek~ of anima!s." Theil the teacher inquired, "And what is

the meaning of God's yokt·?" .-\11 were silent for a moment. Then the

hand of a little four-year-old went up, and she said. "It is God putting Ilis arms around ou r necks l"

PR,WER Satan dread ~ nothing like prayer. The

Church that !ost its Chri<;t was full of good works. Activ ities arc multiplied th at med i­tation may be ousted. and orga niza tions are inc reased that prayer llIay have no chance. SOll is may be lost ill Rood works as surely as in evil ways. The aile concern of the devil is to keep saints from praying. He fears nothing from p ray erless studie s, prayeriess wor k. prayeric<;s rriig-iol1. H e laug-hs at our toil, mocks at ou r wi~dom. hut trembles when we pray.-Stephen Chadwick.
