Perazin, He shall be with us as in _t] valey of Gideon, t h a t He may do His work, His strange worV, and bring pass His act, His strange act.â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Isa. 28:21.

No. 1. Root of a tree the exact shape of an animals head, seems have been mutilated, shows g r e a t signs of distress, yet has an open mouth.

Oh, my friends, m a t t e r s not how the press comes; how the ditress; how ' the trials, perials and anguish, let's keep our mouths open to God. So much \ more than we have room to record God has given us from this sign of nature.

No. 2. The limb of a tree the exact likeness of a serpent. We are all familiar with the trouble on the earth today caused by the subtility of the serpent. But thank God he said the seed of the woman should bruise the serpent's head and we greatly rejoice in the power given the sood of the woman (our Saviour Jesus) who is the t r a m p i n g Lion of Judah.

No. 3. We have the exact likeness of a dog, also the p a r t of a tree.

Actually grew in this shape. Oh so much God gives about the dog spirit which has entered into the world today. Got in chiefly among the ministers.

Greedy, can't get enough. Oh, how God,s people today are being made merchandize of by sin-loving preachers. They have become dumb. They have not the life-given words of the Scripture. Brethern, you may be apparently standing but soon you are .to fall because there is something lacking in your foundation. This dog is on three legs. Take heed, my

"IN THE MIDST OF LIFE THERE IS DEATH" Elder C. C. Fredericks, our beloved overseer, one of the official heads of the National Convocation of the Church of God in Christ, our friend and brother, departed this life very suddenly in Harrisburg, Pa., Wednesday, April 22, 1925, at 9:55 P. M., which is very sad indeed. It came as a shock and a sudden blow. Remembering the words of our blessed Lord, we can but say, "His will be done." The blessed scripture gives. Everything works together to good to them that love the Lord and do according to His word.

So we are praying earnestly God, let us see the good of taking our brother.

Yet it is sad, very, very sad to loseourbrother.

To our Chief Apostle you have lost a son indeed, to the Overseers of this noble body, a link in your chain has been broken. To the church you have lost a pastor and a shepherd indeed. To the bereaved wife a devoted husband. All of us a brother and friend. I am sure I voice the sentiment of our Chief Apostle, Overseers and the entire brotherhood.

Whereas, the Great and Supreme Ruler of the universe has in His infinite wisdom removed from among us, one of our worthy and esteemed fellow laborers, Elder Chandler C. Frederick, and Whereas, The long and intimate relation held with him in the faithful discharge of his duties in this organization makes it eminently befitting that we record our appreciation of him.

Therefore be it resolved, That the wisdom and ability which he has exercised in the aid of our organization by service, contributions and counsel will be held in grateful remembrance.

Resolved, That the sudden removal of such a life from among our midst leaves a vacancy and a shadow that will be deeply realized by all the members and friends of this organization, and will prove a serious loss to the community and the public.

Resolved, That with deep sympathy with the bereaved relatives of the deceased, we express our hope that even so great a loss to us all may be overruled for good by Him who doeth all things well.

Resoved, That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the record of this organization, a copy printed in the "Whole Truth" paper and a copy forwarded to the breaved family.

SISTER JESSIE T. SIMON, National Secretary of Convocation.

(Signed) CHIEF APOSTLE. IN MEMORY OF ELDER L. D. WARE, MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN , Elder Ware departed this life November 10, 1925, age at death, 43 <*ais, 3 months.

Truly Elder Ware was a man of God and he delighted in working for le Lord, and was always on duty, ready to help the sick and the destitute ny time.

He was a good shepherd. The people of Milwaukee mourn his death.

Je was loved by all the unsaved people and proved his love for them.

Many souls have been saved through his ministry. The Lord worked through him in healing the sick. Truly he was a blessing to Milwaukee.

His church work at 620 Vliet street was a complete success. We miss him, / but God knew what was best, for He delights in the death of His faints.

Pray much for his dear wife, who is going through quite a test. A1-large crowd attended the funeral. Among the out-of-town visitors were Elder Roberts of Chicago, Elder P. R. Favors of Chicago, Elder Bryant of New Y<*k, Elder McKinney and Elder Roberts of Waukegan, Illinois.

By A N N A S M I T H , General Recording Secretary STORMSâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;STORMSâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;STORMS The Lord wiss have His way in the storms, and the clouds are the dust of His feet. Nahum 1:2-3. Talk of His wonders and make known His deeds among the people. Ps. 105:1.

Some of the wise of today are saying God has nothing to do with the storm. But the Bible says: "The Lord will have His way in the whirlwinds and in the storms."

"God will rise up as in Mount Perazim and be wroth as in the Valley of Gibeon, t h a t He may do His work, His strange work, and bring to pass His acts, His strange acts." Isiah 28:21.

The word says t h a t the proud and the drunkards shall be visited of the Lord of hosts, with thunder and earthquakes and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire." Isiah 29:86.

God with the hand of the storm shall cast down to the e a r t h : produd folks; and God shall trample them under His foot in the storm. Nahum 1:2-3; Isiah 28:1-3.

Short dress, pride, low necked pride, men proud over their success over others, lawyers proud over their arguments in sentencing some one for gain, judges proud over their power to send men into custody, men and women proud of their fine homes and automobiles, women proud of their fine homes and automobiles, women proud of their powers of attraction t h a t bewitches a man turning his from his home, his wife and his children; man proud in his wickedness in taking to himself another man's wife, and bringing shame and disgrace to himself and to others; the rich man proud of his ascendency over the poor, having gathered his gain by fraud and keeping back the hire from the poor. National pride bringing forth wars and polluting the land, causing blood to touch blood; all of the characters God will work with in storms, earthquakes, and great noise, and with flames of devouring fire.

While He was troding the proud and the drunkards under His foot. I want here to relate some of the incidents of the storm which passed through five states of West States of America. Recently in passing through t h e . eastern p a r t of the West States of America, it destroyed in its wake over 800 people, injured 3,000; loss to property $15,000,000.

In Murphysboro, 111., in His strange act put a woman in a well and the w a t e r felt as cotton under her feet, then in His strange way lifted her out, unhurt.

Another mother with twins was lifted up in a tree and was not hurt.

Again in His wrath He drove a scantling 2x6 feet through a t r e e ; then in another tree He drove a scantling through and sent in a shingle through the scantling t h a t went through the tree.

Who is like unto God ?

Locomotives and steel cars were upturned, doing His work, His strange work.

It is said in one home a lady had lately installed a new gas range but God came and swept it out of the house and set a coal stove in its place. Was t h a t not one of God's strange acts ?

"Come and see the works of God, He is terrible in His doing toward the children of men." Ps. 66:5. In a little town, DeSoto, where there was so much race hatred, I am told t h a t a signbearing these words was raised, "Negroes, read and run." God performed another one of His strange acts.

This town was completely destroyed.

In confirmation of the Scriptures, after the storm was over, an open Bible was found by a telegraph operator, of Cairo, 111., who went over inspecting the ruins, March 25. The Bible was lying face downward on the ground. Picking it up he declared it was opened on the 13th Chapter of Mark, s t a r t i n g with these words, "As He went out of the temple one

(

sciples said unto Him; Master see what manner of stones rnd wh t Js are here. And Jesus answering said unto him; Seeth thou these pildings ? There shall not be left one stone upon another t h a t sh 11 thrown down." tother instance of a woman who was stripped of her clothing except Farters. r One of a chicken who was picked of its ferthers. God says: "Thy ikedness shall be uncovered yea thy shame shal be seen:" Isiah 47:3.

Again, in His anger in another storm He passed through Mississippi and lifting a feather bed from its place, emptying it in a pie, ready to be served; then carried away the tick, house and all. God working in a mysterious way.

A team of mules was lifted and placed upon the top of a'house. Job. 9:10; "Behold He takhth away, who can hinder H i m ? " A baby was taken up and was carried away and put down unhurt.

A man also was carried away from his plough and when he came to himself he found he might have been more thanlOO miles from home.

In a Mississippi storm a colored child was carried by the storm and placed in a white man's yard.

God's s t r a n g e and terrible visitation on man in the earthquake of September, 1923, without a sign or any warning the house collapsed in a moment of time. Those which escaped the first shock were left frantic with fear, running here and there t r y i n g to find a place t h a t would be safe to stand; as the wrath of God caused theearth to rumble and quake. E a r t h quake and great noise, flames and devouring fire turned the proud, fascinating country of J a p a n into a place of death and destruction.

What a surprise to the people at ease; with the sun shining at noonday, with no thought of any disaster, and feel t h a t the farthest thing from them was death; to be siezed in a moment of time by the giant monster coming up of the earth swallowing them without any time to repent or even think as to what the end would be. Matt. 24-44. Therefore, be ye also ready for in such an hour as ye thinknot the Son of m a n cometh. We can see from t h a t how very necessary itisto be ready and not wait until we come to die.

Some of those t h a t were saved their bodies were stripped bare of all clothing and they wrapped themselves in anything they could find t h a t would cover them.

The rich and the poor all suffered alike, God is no respector of persons.

Acts 10:34.

Beloved Saints and R e a d e r s : J u s t a few words regarding Elder C. H. Masons sermons.

Many have asked me as to whether I shorthand the sermons. I am pleased to tell you it is God's holy annointing t h a t rests upon me to record t h a t which the Holy Ghost wishes known, as given through our man serv a n t of God. I do it not by shorthand, but it is retained through the unction of God and written as directed oÂŁ Him as did the scribes of old.

SERMON IN ÂŁART

By Elder C. H. Mason

\

By A N N A S M I T H , General Recording Secretary Tuesday, December 1, 1926 It is wonderful to see we have this spirit in the ministry t h a t brings us into the love of the F a t h e r , making known the mystery of God. The spirit of the Lord, in the revelation of Christ, is given to the New Testament Church. There came out a record t h a t showed the mind of God as to the ministers and the assembly as to whether they were displeasing ministers with charge over the flocks. If you do not know of this mystery, there will be trouble in these evil days. The spirit receives from God how to glorify God's name and to deliver us from shame. Nothing will do it but H e in us.

10

The idle shepherd is woed. Zech. 11:17. "Woe to the idle shepherd t h a t leaveth the flock! the sword shall be upon is arm, and upon his right eye."

Brethren, love Jesus. God never ordains a minister and not give power; the powerless ministry is not of God. 2 Cor. 4 : 1 . "Therefore seeing we have this ministry as we have received mercy, we faint not, but have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully." You may be backstruck, but you faint not. Your sufficiency is of God, who has made you able ministers of the New Testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit. God forbid t h a t we should glory in anything but in the cross of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Brethren, my heart's desire to God is t h a t you may be saved. You cannot let your belly lead you off and not listen to the words of the spirit; you will come to regret and shame.

The grounds of the New Testament adorn you. "Behold, I send the promise of the F a t h e r upon you which ye have heard of me." Acts 1:4.

He told His disciples to go t a r r y until they were endowed with power from on high. H a d they not obeyed and eased their heads things would have gone to the devil. But they waited and it was Him who led them.

Brethren, I do not believe we can run in this, exsept we have Jesus Christ rule in us.

I t grieves my heart when you come with less interest t h a n Jesus had.

He said: "Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of Me) to do thy will, O God." Hebr. 10:7.

Here are the sick and the afflicted to be healed. Suppose there would have come up all these cases in the council a t J e r u s a l e m ; there would not have been much done. There was a case of one having his father's wife.

I Cor. 5:1-2. Through all of t h a t there was rejoicing, but the Scripture says such rejoicing is not good.

I am afraid sometime you mistake these meetings. Watch, therefore, and pray.

Brethren, the way past the tempter is in Christ. Watch and see t h a t no man take your crown. P u t no blame on anyone; if you sin, just repent.

My spirit is coming to the place where I am breaking down, and I am about to deliver your spirit to the devil if you don't repent. F o r fourteen days I labored with a soul then I gave him up. Immediately the devil dealt with him like he did with J u d a s , and he went away with the persecution. I never saw a more direct fulfillment of the word. He was turned over to shame.

The only thing t h a t governs and holds us is the spirit of intercession t h a t binds us in p r a y e r ; we given up t h a t we may please God. My spirit is tried.

You have said h a r d words back a t m e ; you have said I have a one-man thing. But, oh, Brethren, if it had not of been a "one-man t h i n g " where would it have been by now. Yet we faint not.

In spite of those who have fallen away, we faint not. I know some things have hindered, yet we faint not.

I t is t r u l y God's time, and judgment begins a t the house of the Lord.

God sees you. What is done in the dark shall be brought to light. Sometimes there are not enough witnesses, but God is there and you will yet come up in God's court.

Doggish spirits a r e standing in the pulpits who won't control their lusts. My God, deliver us from the deceitful lusts of the flesh. If you let the blood of J e s u s cover you, you may glorify God, but if you cover your sins you will not prosper. If you m u r m u r and complain you cannot prosper; you will be dead with your own stuff. No flesh feeds the eternal feeding. John 6:53. "Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood ye have no life in you."

I have been in the ministry thirty-two years and have never been defiled with a woman. I t is not the woman t h a t I f e a r ; it is God f e a r / Jesus died for me, and He rose for m e ; H e sent the Holy Ghost and I want the devil to be defeated to the end.

11

Man says you cannot live right. I know you can.

God opened my understanding before I entered into this. My eyes were opened on the Scripture and I knew if I ever got a "thorn in the flesh" I would never get it out.

Brethren, don't t r y to push me beyond the Scriptures. Let me honor God. Some Overseers will have to change their places. My soul has labored t h a t some of you be carried into the land. Homes have been blessed.

I reckon I will have to change and say, "Don't pay tithes to pastors and overseers who won't pay tithes."

I don't go to the people preaching tithes. If you ask me I will tell you whom they are to be paid to.

Show yourself a good and kind minister and God will bless your labor.

I am living not for myself, but for God's glory and yours. Jer. 3:15.

"And I will give you pastors according to mine h e a r t which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding."

Some pastors have gone away from good jobs to glorify God and to be in this ministry. They have not fainted.

If I fall today, don't faint. I am not the head; Jesus Christ is the head. Don't get to the place where you cannot make a battle against things t h a t a r e dishonest. Dog spirits in the pulpit.

Prove all t h i n g s ; receive no accusation against a minister and circulate your acusations without a proof. He may be innocent. Look avthings and a t causes of things. The devil is a devil and h a s many things to t r y you on.

The perfections of God works on a man so he can say as did Job, "The Lord giveth and the Lord t a k e t h ; blessed be the name of the Lord."

You do yourself wrong to make publications. You have not become wise enough in your calling. A bishop must be apt to teach and patient.

Brother Overseers, you make yourself to be undesired t r y i n g to get the money. Get t h e people to God. This deceitful work will not do. When your works get in a mess, I have to come and mourn you out. Aside from running after a woman you must be truthful men.

We come to a trouble of how to govern a people with property. Govern with honesty. Any minister buying property in his own name is working in dishonesty.

This property does not belong to me. I do not claim a s t r a w in it. I have some deacons who have confidence in me and will not do until they see me, because they believe I will do right.

Not a nickel do I claim in t h i s ; it all belongs t o you. The souls of people a r e worth more to me t h a n a dime.

If your h e a r t is not set, the devil will find you out. Yet we faint not; God is going to t a k e us through. God has come to give us a burial in Christ, t h e mighty prince, and light of God. We are in the fountain which we used to talk of long ago.

Be not discouraged. Today isn't enough to pay for our sacrifice, to learn of the glory of His love.

All men are seeking their own, but "let this mind be in you which was in Christ J e s u s . " Salvation depends on submission to God's orders.

My soul is going through. In spite of dogs I meet along the way, I am going through. This wonder from Jesus is worth all good behavior.

Stand in the Holy w a y and faint not.

INVOCATION AND SERMON IN PART ELDER C. H. MASON, Memphis, Tennessee

By ANNA SMITH,Recording Secretary 2029 Flora Ave., Kansas City, Mo. Father, let the sweetness of Jesus Christ bring us together as one, annointing us as to what to say. Let us not be as the heathen; make us to say: "Lord, thy will be done."

Comfort me with Thyself; wisdom teaching me from day to day. Comfort the poor and feeble; rebuke the tormentor. Loose these, in the name of Jesus, and make the gospel of the word make a way, delivering souls from the bonds of corruption. Let the peace of the cross heal the sick, and the name, Jesus, be mighty in the midst of the people.

Forgive and heal these who are vexed with devils. Take away the idols, and let these behond the beauty of your Christ-Word; and give each one believing God. Heal these, groaning; and rebuke death in the assembly; and let thy grace to these appear. Give these to be bound in service with faith to conquer all; for thou art doing a quick work and cutting short in righteousness. Gather thy people together, for thou art calling them to holiness and setting them together, baptized into the spirit of thy delight.

Give us to glorify thy name for thou art worthy; for thou sayest to the weak: "Be thou strong."

Give men to "look," that Jesus be applied; for we are brought of the Lord for spiritual refreshing. Separate these from their diseases that they cry: "It is the Lord's doing." Teach men to triumph ini the love of Jesus, for he is the sunrising wonder, the light of God with man, and the glory of the! lawi is written in our hearts.

Let the mystery of Christ rebuke the evil of the mind and set the word of God in the wills, in the spirit, clothed with His greatness.

Make us watchful when we come together. Now we thank thee for the victory. Blessed be the Lord.

SERMON IN PART We are delighted with God's likeness, for we see ourselves in the light of his will and we enjoy what is written in his word. Jesus Christ is now healing. God delights to give. We have found that he is love in our wills and in our spirits.

I am glad to be with you tonight to speak of Jesus, that your hearts may be strong.

The thought is in my heart the word Jesus sent to John: "Go and show John again those things which ye do hear and see; the lepers are cleansed, and the! deaf hear; the dead are raised up and the poor have the gospel preached to them." Matt. 11:45.

God has a way to make man know that he is God. It is good for preachers to inquire about the things of God. We got a good many things from women and from colleges, but Ezekiel received the word from God's mouth and gave to the people. "It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing; the words I speak unto you they are spirit and they are life." John 6:63. The word from God means life and the preacher is the first one to take the dose. God's word will put you out of business with the world. John 17:15-16.

When holiness is preached the God-sent minister is put up in a high place and the whole earth is filled with God's glory.

Leaders have caused the people to err. Jer. 23:13-14. The gospel that you "cannot help but sin" is a lie. Preachers have divided God's people, and have caused them to be destroyed from spiritual effect. When it comes to the quickening spirit, they can read about it, but what do they know about it? Towns are filled with thieves; danger and hell are on the streets, from the doctrines of "you can't help but sin."

"But ye have set at naught all my counsel and would have none of my reproof." Prov. 1:25.

13

"But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse." 2 Tim. 3:13.

Homes are wrecked for lack of knowledge; lack of training. The hope of the future destroyed for lack of gospel sense. They said "Take t h a t Barabas down and put up Jesus who is t r y i n g to make people live holy."

Leaders are chargeable for the condition of the people. There is only one hope for the nationsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Jesus Christ in righteousness.

God took Jesus Christ for his under foundation and spread the heavens out. He gave him to be head over all things pertaining to the church. He made him wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption.

T r u t h is p u t in the inner' man. "Be not deceived, God is not mocked."

"I am against the prophets t h a t seal my word." Ministers, you m a y go along sowing sham religion, but the day is coming when you are going to reap what you sow.

The church needs to abound in grace. When would the spirituality of the church die out with the glory of God being manifested like t h i s : "Old things are passed away, behold all things are become new."

The treasures of the Kingdom are hid in Jesus. We contend for the words of God's wisdom for it is the Holy Ghost come into the soul, giving us freely the things of God. God is confirming his word so t h a t we who believe m a y not be discouraged. He calls earth as one of his witnesses. F e a r is turned on the wicked, for the earth is producing signs; the latter rain is at t h e door.

It is a token of world distress; the book of prophecy is unfolding.

Speaking from a potato (one of God's signs) held in bondage by a small iron rivet, he said: "The bands of wickedness around man, only God is able to break; for all things done in the dark must be brought to l'ght.

When you find yourself under t h e bands of the world, humble yourself and God will take you out of your distresses. He will come with t h e plow of his wonder and t u r n you out. He looks on you; down in sorrww without rest, wounded, sore, poor and low, and leads you out.

Signs like this come t h a t you may know God. N a t u r a l mind cannot receive the things of God. F e a r is turned on the wicked. People are now getting time to p r a y ; for God is letting his spirit of understanding get away from them. They have no understanding of the future. Rich folks are t r y i n g to keep what they have on hand; but in James 5:1â&#x20AC;&#x201D;"Go to, now ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries t h a t shall come upon you." They have swallowed up the substance of the poor. Yet to the poor I say, get rich in faith toward God. Make a safe investment in God. "By him, therefore, let us offer t h e sacrifice to God continually, t h a t is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to his name." Heb. 13:15.

Men a r e called in the earthquakes and storms, in fires, in lynchings, in burnings, in w a r s and in distresses. He has sent forth worms as armies to g a t h e r in the foodstuff. Nothing for a man to do, no labor for his hands to perform. God's hand moving, giving men time to p r a y .

The birds are getting their all from God. In the morning they give Him glory. They fly to His honor, singing His p r a i s e s ; satisfied with their portion. The bird governor providing things. They a r e doing the will of the Lord.

But men have ripped up women with child with no pity for the fruit of the womb; infants have been dashed to pieces; houses have been spoiled; wives have been ravished; men have fallen by the sword. Hosea 13:16; Isiah 13:16.

God commanded men to beat their swords into plow s h a r e s ; nations not lifting up their swords against nation neither learn w a r any more.

Isiah 2:4.

His judgment is now against the wicked. The land is polluted; the fruit of the e a r t h is cursed; man h a s gone backward from God. Time now to pray.

Woe to the bloody cities. God knows how to fill every cup. People t h a t know God shall be strong, God giving them to stand in the day of evil. Joel 2:12.

God is gathering for the day of slaughter; nations are splitting, ready 14

for destruction. Churches are splitting on the baptism, on the tongues; churches a r e mocking God; lying on the Holy Ghost and to the Holy Ghost; but God is not asleep but is wide awake. He has called men to t u r n a t His reproof; but they have set a t n a u g h t His counsel now He is laughing at their calamity. He mocks when fear comes. Prov. 1:25-26.

People are floating into spiritualism; seeking the dead to know the future. God t u r n i n g men loose to their shame.

Brethren, my heart's desire and p r a y e r for Israel is t h a t they may be saved; for they have a zeal of God but not according to knowledge. Romans 10:1.

God's children a r e weary trying to set men free through signs and wonders, but there is a rest for His people and they have entered into t h a t rest and have ceased from their own works. May the sweet communion in the Holy Ghost bless you with peace. Wait the more the refreshing of God and the spirit of power to quicken you, t h a t you be able to withstand the wiles of the devil. Let God be your head, be loyal to Him, for His way is a wonder in man.

By A N N A S M I T H , Recording Secretary, November 28, 1925 Jesus, the fullness of God given to us, Thou standest among u s ; we thank Thee for the blood. Make the message of Jesus in our minds. Let the presence of Jehovah be around us, and bind the enemy, in J e s u s ' name.

Touch me with the strength of Christ and help me with the glory of Thy presence. Blessed be God, for the anointing is on me and Thy love is shown in the day.

Heal the sick ones t h a t come, and give them praying in the Holy Ghost.

Let the little ones say " y e s " to God and Thy goodness be among us. Out of the Lord He came; let Him speak to the poor; let Him speak while they call on His name.

Forgive Thy children and let them know the way of the cross. Let Jesus, the Shepherd, feed these. Take away the shame and show these the way and the mighty anointing of Jesus, filling us with Himself.

Lord, my soul loves God. Heal while we wait. We thank Thee now t h a t Thou hast heard, for by Thy stripes we are healed.

May my spirit rest from evil so I be t a u g h t of the Lord. Fill us and we a r e Thine forever.

Speaking, he said: This is our message today, for the coming is unto us in the morning.

We a r e thankful to God for the spirit of His light; for the coming of the Lord is nigh. Be watchful. H e is showing Himself in signs; in believers.

Thank be to God who has given to us eternal life and to know Him as our Savior.

God is giving in the h e a r t of the believers the secret of His love to do.

Make your p r a y e r s to God and be not sluggish in your heart, for we have come out of darkness into His marvelous light.

In the mind He is showing; in the h e a r t he is living. Blest be the name of the Lord, my Savior's gift. Thank God for the love of Jesus who has made us priests of God; we shall with Him ever reign.

John 15:26: " B u t when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the F a t h e r , even the Spirit of t r u t h , which proceedeth from the F a t h e r , he shall testify of me."

This is the world's "know not." Jesus said, "If you love me, keep my commandments." If we a r e deceitful in our wills and in our hearts, we a r e unpleasant in the sight of God. John 1 4 : 2 3 : "Jesus answered and said unto him, 'If a man love me, he will keep my words and my F a t h e r will love him and we will come unto him and make our abode with him'."

Ministers in the spirit have the advantage of the world; they have the beauty of Jesus and the light of His word.

In His purpose H e intends us to be filled with Him. Jesus Christ was 15

filled with wisdom and He intends us to be like Him and enjoy Jesus in the spirit.

We have the searching comforter from God in the spirit; the hidden things He will find. He can discern His way t h r o u g h ; you can't fool Him. 1 Cor. 2 : 9 : " B u t as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the h e a r t of man, the things which God has prepared for them t h a t love Me." W h a t is man t h a t thou a r t mindful of him? And the Son of Man t h a t thou visitest Him? F o r thou hast made Him a little lower t h a n the angels and hast crowned Him with glory and honor.

Brethren, we have a searching comforter, who has an authority to hold you up and search your baggage. This mighty wonder is Christ in the Holy Ghost, filling and indwelling the heart. A searching comforter in the church filling whomsoever wills. No man is able to teach a man but Jesus in the Holy Ghost. God is giving a duty of} service. If you walk in it you will do w h a t He says. I w a n t to see the people of God worship God. Jesus came to take away the power of evil and to take away the mystery of death. I t w a s Jesus t h a t was all night praying and who said: "I am the way." When the brethren said, "If you go, how will we know the w a y ? " Jesus said, "I am the way."

I am the way to hold council meetings, I a m the way to hold revivals, I am the w a y ; the secret among the nations, and w h a t you see about me.

I am going away with t h a t . I am going to send back w h a t you cannot see, yet it will be me. John 16:7. " I t is expedient for you t h a t I go away, for if I go not away the comforter will not come unto you, but if I d e p a r t I will send him unto you."

There is a difference between God-love and man-love. Jesus said to Peter, "Do you love me, feed my sheep." The minister m u s t have the love of God so the people can be led and fed. Love is stronger t h a n death. It broke the chains of death and sent Christ to victory. I t was love t h a t made God fix the way so the children could glorify Jesus in the Holy Ghost.

I s a i a h 3 5 : 8 : "And a highway shall be there and a way and it shall be called the way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it but it shall be for those." No coming up there to get a man to lynch. Not on the Davis and Lincoln highway, but on the highway of glory. The ready virgins can walk there, those who a r e sanctified and baptized with the Holy Ghost.

John 14:23: "If a man love me, he will keep my words, and my F a t h e r will love him and we will come unto him and make our abode with him."

W h a t the Lord is doing for you, brethren, is wonderful; it will pay you to keep clean, and keep your body under. Don't fix it up like the world with college information.

The stuff of the world does not beautify the home nor give you peace in the heart. The country is going from bad to worse. Men a r e cut off from liberty of life. Churches a r e split, men are coming out from them because the other preachers have all the people turned. W h a t we need is the fire of the glory of God. "And saviors shall come up on Mt. Zion to judge the mount of E s a u . " The gospel wonder of Christ shall bring us back from the day of destruction. He is giving us to look and see, for He is overcoming everywhere. " T h e stone which the builders rejected the same has become the corner stone."

The gospel takes away corruption and gives you the beauty of Christ; it regenerates and makes a new man. Old things pass away and behold all things become new.

Jesus could recommend this salvation for He was saved from unbelief; saved from t h a t which makes ashamed; saved from faithless works. The gospel never loses its saving effect. When God rivers the glory of His love goes out to save. He is never empty. He saves^from sorrows, saves from sickness; saves us from hating one another; saves from spiritual ignorance. He makes us holy temples.

This is the biggest thing there is. God is broadcasting for you. Have you got a point up in God; loving Jesus. If you have been stemmed down, 16

and "rooted u p " in love wait for broadcasting time, it is soon coming.

Give yourselves no more to vanity, for the love of God and the spirit of peace has come to us. He is with us today, and must have praises. May the power of the name Jesus glorify you and work strange in you. May the sweet communion in the Holy Ghost bless you with peace. Wait the more for the refreshing of God and the spirit of power to quicken you, so t h a t you be able to withstand the evil.

SISTER LILLIAN BROOKS COFFEY We are made partakers of Christ of we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end.â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Heb. 3.14.

Greetings to all who may read this little article. In these days of deep deception, days of anguish, peril and distress, I know nothing t h a t would better fit us for this great battle in which our souls are engaged t h a n "to a r m ourselves," and to decide deep down in our souls to be steadfast in the faith of a living God. Have a fixed purpose and stick to i t ; praise be to God. Scarcely anything in life determines a soul's welfare more than the n a t u r e of its outlook. If the spiritual frontage is toward the shadow, the soul sees all things in the gloom of the shadow, but if this frontage is toward sunlight. The soul sees all things in the brightness of the sunlight. Oh! Soul, w h a t is the Outlook? If your outlook is wrong it is only a m a t t e r of time before your conduct will be wrong | If right, m a t t e r s not how surrounded by failure, despair and what be the struggle, the tendency of character will be toward the right. Saints, let's settle it today and have a fixed purpose. And be open always to the "best."

In the days of Daniel it was customary t h a t every Israelite wherever he be, thought Jerusalem a place where God's worship was worthiest and fellowship hardest. The name Jerusalem stirred the patriotism within To open the windows of his soul toward Jerusalem was to open to the best there was. Daniel in building his own palatial residence, in MedoPersian empire, provided one room, an upper room, with its windows opening toward Jerusalem. It w a s here he accustomed himself to throw open the lattice and p r a y three times a day. M a t t e r s not how, w h a t the condition, this was his custom. When he King " D a r i u s " issued the decree t h a t all should bow. Test time coming on Daniel. This decree was prompted by an ulterior motive. Daniel was a foreigner and held a higher place. His actions were faultless and the only way to get a charge against him was to ask him to bow to the King instead of his God. The decree being issued, they watched Daniel to see, their eyes watch even as he entered his loft or "upper room." They saw him open his windows toward Jerusalem and kneel before Jehovah! I t was purposed in his h e a r t to stick to the faith of a living God. And death t h r e a t s didn't change him.

He had known the religion of the Chaldeans, with its imposing fast, and ornate ceremonies; he had seen it phased under U under Nebuchadneezzar and Belshazzar. He also knew of the fire worshipping Persians. And many other religions with appealing features. Yet Daniel kept his windows open toward Jerusalem. Other religions might a t t e m p t to answer his souls' inquiries others might have their beauties, might help materially, but one he had purposed to serve. Daniel didn't have it easy beloved. When a mere youth he entered* the Babylonian palace, t h e ideal of his associates were low. The religion of his fellow students was a mere form. The domestic life was unsound.

Public life was dishonest. Looseness of character everywhere pervaded. I m p u r i t y was alluring. Bribery was considered a necessary feature of authority. The weak were crushed by the mighty. Selfishness characterized tooth king and people. Think of the youth Daniel. In his position he breathed malaria and not affected.

He was in a whirl of worldliness and not made dizzy thereby. His one reserve for a stand was his consideration of his God whom he had purposed to serve. On t h a t day when the unalterable decree was issued, it threw Daniel in iminent and unescapable peril. Jealous officers already rejoiced in his anticipated death. The danger of weakening might have 17

threatened his heart. He no doubt remembered t h a t A b r a h a m ; one in E g y p t surrendered his principles and thereby saved his life, t h a t the Gibeonies once falsified and preserved their lives. He might have reasoned — W h y should I not in this special m a t t e r yield and give up recognition of Jehovah until the storm of persecution is past. He no doubt thought, maybe it was too extreme. I'm away down here hundreds of miles from home. I can just temporarily relinquish my ideals. This was a temptuous h o u r ; many have gone down before it. Pilate did, but not Daniel. He had it fixed and God's commands do right and scorn the consequences; be faithful if it ends in martyrdom. He no doubt remembered Joseph, who would not sin doing evil. "Oh, s a i n t s ! Young s a i n t s ! " Let's go through with Jesus. Bear the testimony of Jesus and if necessary seal it with your life's blood. Let's- be made brave by the s t a n d a r d set for us by others.

There may be the time in your life when you have g r e a t temptation when the hour is d a r k ; the peril g r e a t ; when you have not a friend, nor a helper a t hand and you alone must face the crisis—you may be brave, but being flesh you need strength j u s t as the man of Calvary, who in Gethsemane neeeded support and encouraging sympathy. But stick to i t — t u r n your soul towards God's promises and let them comfort and flood your soul. Fasten your h e a r t to God's promises. All sorts of sights m a y be before you. You may be tempted to despair but Jehovah still liveth. I t is a blessed way to live, to always keep open hearts to God and on a "fixed righteous purpose," whether we a r e with the multitude or alone if we have a fixed purpose to go through with God, open the very closets of our souls to the best t h a t God h a s ; as distant as t h a t best may seem—back from the best will come the light t h a t never fails and strength t h a t never breaks. The secre of our success is a "Steadfastness in the faith."

WHO AM I ?

I am more powerful than the combined armies of the world.

I have destroyed more men than all the w a r s of the nations.

I am moredeadly than bullets and have wrecked more homes than the mightiest of siege guns. .

I steal in the United States alone more t h a n three hundred million dollars each year.

I spare no one, and find my victims among the rich and the poor alike, t h e young and the old, the strong and the weak, widows and orphans know me.

I am stealing from you a t this very moment.

I loom up to such proportions t h a t I cast my shadow over every field of labor, from the turning of every grindstone to the moving of every railroad train.

I massacre thousands upon thousands of wage earners in a year.

I lurk in unseen places and do most of my work silently. You are warned against me, but you heed not.

I am relentless.

I am everywhere—in the home, on the streets, in the factory, at railroad crossings, in the office and one the sea.

I bring sickness, degradation and death and yet few seek to avoid me.

I destroy, crush or maim; I give nothing, but take all.

I am your worst enemy.

I AM C A R E L E S S N E S S .

DELIVERANCE FROM SPIRITUALISM Being a Medium All t h a t there is in me doth bless and magnify Jesus for what He is and always has been to me. My soul just praises Him for salvation and a healthy body. I was left an orphan, the Lord having taken my mother and also my father, who was a Methodist minister, when I was very young and I did not have a relative. I was given to some people in New Orleans by my guardian, who did not take very good care of me but our God being a help to the helpless and a friend to the friendless saw me, and His g r e a t heart of love was touched and He sent deliverance and placed me in a Christian school.

After leaving there I came to Chicago, and the Lord gave me a sweet husband, but my soul was not satisfied with the religion I professed. Something way down in me was seeking Jesus. A real living way, I was just craving something t h a t was real, because I felt t h a t I, of all people, needed to know Jesus in a true way but didn't know just how I could find it. I knew how my father had prayed for me and my dear mother had t a u g h t me righteousness as much as they knew, but now my heart was so weary and grieved t h a t I began to visit the Christian Science Church, studied Mrs. Eddy's book called Science and Health, with key to the Scriptures along with the Bible. That, I decided, was a little better because I saw they t a u g h t healing and I did see t h a t in the Scriptures. Satan saw He had me going on His way. He came in on me like a flood and I took a peculiar illness and a terrible fear siezed me. Now from a child I had always seemed to feel very keenly the thoughts of others. When a lady told me t h a t she belonged to the Psycho-Success Circle which is a sort of form of Spiritualism and t h a t by joining it my life would become new, and by learning more of the power of thought I would come in contact with the higher forces and they would teach me more what this life is for. I joined and received some help in my mind and my fear seemed to subside. From t h a t I sought to know more about it. The enemy was removing from my body and t h r u s t i n g it in my mind by making me a believer in his destructive doctrine. I at once wrote to the Institute of Science in Los Angeles to Professor White and he informed me t h a t I had great physic power and my husband a t once obtained from him for us a course of Development in Seership from him for us, and I liked it so well t h a t I sought more, so I began to take lessons from a prominent medium here in Chicago. I finished t h a t course and took under another one and came out in w h a t is called a flower seance. Still t h a t didn't satisfy my longing soul. I knew t h e Lord wanted me to comfort His and to say words t h a t would heal broken h e a r t s and t h a t give life to the hearers. I had known it from a child but I didn't j u s t know how. I decided it was or might have been in reading their past and future life. And among them t h a t was burdened and worn I would tell about J e s u s and how he could help them. Really dear ones, I was honest and clean and loved Jesus down in my h e a r t as much as I knew. I was deceived although the consecration was there but you know the word of the Lord is right and He did say t h a t those t h a t were honest would escape those in error.

Although there was the making of money to induce me but seemingly the thought of money hadn't seized me. I really had in me to help humanity more t h a n getting money. However, the enemy was working fast and very cleverly deceiving me by making me think I was seeking the highest development so I could better help the people when in reality he was making me seek more and more and in t h a t very thing creating a desire in me to be g r e a t or in other words giving me one of His exacting spirits from which He knew nothing would be able to deliver me but faith in the blood of Jesus which He thought I would never reach, since He knew I was not builded on a blood foundation because the spiritism foundation teaches t h a t every man is his own savior and they think it perfectly absurd t h a t one man should die for the sins of many. They believe in Jesus and teach most of His teachings but only as a great teacher do they 21

reverence H i m ; as a teacher among g r e a t teachers but not as God manifested in the flesh or the direct son of God. Now dear ones as I tell you these things I am telling you the doctrine of real spiritualismâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;not those who j u s t learn to be mediums and call themselves Baptists or Protestants.

They call themselves orthodox spiritualists but they a r e deceived because the same spirit is working in all, but I received this information from a real spiritualist, having learned under the greatest test medium in the world supposedly, or a t least one who has the reputation in the person of Mr. Jno. Slater. Now r e t u r n i n g to my thought they believe Jesus is the Son of God, in the same sense in which we are all sons of God, referring to the Scripture t h a t says "Ye are God's." Now the virgin birth which to us t h a t believe is so dear, is foolishness to them, or like a fable t h a t ' s told. They claim it is unreasonable and of course can not see it, as they depend on reason and the revelation from what they call the Spirit World which revelations they believe regardless to w h a t the word of God says.

They don't believe really t h a t the Bible is the Word of God, because they say they can write the words of God too. Since the Spirit moved the Holy men of God to write, the Spirit can also move them to write and they do write, in a spirit, communications which they receive and believe are as much the words of God as the Bible t h u s dooming themselves to hell the more.

These they believe are familiar spirits which means like unto our spirits, or some one t h a t has lived in the earth as we a r e living and deceased and r e t u r n with a message from God. They believe the Holy Ghost is composed of these spirits which they believe are sent out from God to guide men and women in all pursuits of life and as they come to you they claim the names of the old prophets and apostles and of godly men and women who they ciaim come to guide them.

Now we t h a t are blood washed and sanctified through the t r u t h know t h a t these vain imaginations of men's mind are not true so as I came among the saints I heard the one gospel, the true gospel of the Son of God t h a t says "We are builded upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, J E S U S C H R I S T ( H I M S E L F ) being the chief cornerstone"â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Eph. 2-20, and so I saw in the Scriptures the one plan He had laid down by which I could be truly saved. Thank God my h u n g r y soul accepted this wonderful salvation t h a t saves from sin and shame, and now praise God I am adopted into this Holy family and have my inheritance among all them t h a t are sanctified and called to be saints and have in my soul the real joy of salvation and can say my soul is completely satisfied in Him. Today I have a mind to go with Him all the way and to keep the charge He h a s given me until He comes again to snatch away His bride without spot or wrinkle. I t is so wonderful to know t h a t Jesus has really destroyed the very root of this erroneous teaching in my h e a r t so much so t h a t I even destroyed the books of development and every piece of literature t h a t I could find concerning it in my home, and I found t h a t the Spirit was leading according to the word for nineteenth chapter of Acts, nineteenth verse, tells us t h a t when Paul preached to them t h a t had these spirits of divination they accepted the word and brought their books together and burned them before all men.

Now I p r a y the Lord may bless the readers of this article and m a y He give them eyes t h a t they may see and ears t h a t they may hear, and a spiritual understanding t h a t the Lord may show them in many things discerning between the powers of good and evil, desiring the p r a y e r s of all the saints. Amen.

" A P O S T L E S H I P IN T H E CHURCH O F GOD IN CHRIST" The Apostles in the church are called and made of God, and not of men. I Cor. 1-1. Nor by man Gal. 1:1. Men m a y be called by an apostle and sent. Titus 1:5-8. The keys of t h e kingdom was given unto the Apostle; t h a t whosovere he should bind on earth should be bound in Heaven and whosoever he should loose on earth should be loosed in Heaven.

Matt 16:17-19. The Apostles are set first in the church. 1 Cor. 12-28.

When they have been breathed on and filled with the Holy Ghost they may forgive sin. St. John 20:21-23. Paul the Apostle commanded the church in Corinth to put out the evil doer, then after he had repented (He) Paul said to forgive him and he would do the sameinthe Person of Christ.

2 Cor. 2,6-10.

The Church is built upon the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets.

Eph. 2:20.

Bishops and Elders are made by the Apostles; but Bishops nor Elders never made nor makes an Apostle in the Church of God in Christ. They are called and made of God. God sent Jesus and Jesus sent the Apostles.

St. John 20:21. Apostles send Bishops ordained to ordein Elders and Deacons in the church. Titus 1:5-8. The Apostles commanded the multitude of the disciples to look out among themselves men full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom t h a t thel (Apostles) might appoint over that business: so they did. The Apostles ordained them for Deacons in the church. Acts 6, 1-6. If one has been excluded from the church wrongfully by the Elders or members of the church. The Apostle may call to memory the deeds of the one t h a t has done the wrong and restore one that was turned out to his right in the church. 3 John, 5-10.

The words t h a t God gave unto Jesus Jesus gave unto the Apostles.

St. John 17:8. The Revelations t h a t God gave His son Jesus after the ascension, Jesus gave unto the Apostle John. Gave him to write and send it unto all the pastors and churches t h a t were in Asia. Rev. 1:1-4. Oh, what Jesus in the Holy Ghost is doing through the Apostles in the church of today. Peter, James and John saw Jesus in His glory. No other man ever saw. Matt. 17:1-9. Paul the Apostle heard words t h a t were not lawful for a man to utter. 2 Cor. 12:1-4.

Jesus through the Holy Ghost gave commandments unto the Apostle after He was taken up. Acts 1:7-2.

God's church has never been run by the majority of the people. God's words sent them by one two and three. His word is always right. One Noah with the word was right and ruled. All the world, with its great multitudes dies and left the church with one Noah and his family. 1 Peter 3:19, 2 Pet. 2:5. So we see t h a t God rules in one Abraham the father of all the faithful. One Lot in Sodom. One Moses in Egypt. One Joshua to stop the sun and break down the wall of Jericho. One Sampson in the spirit to rent a lion and eat honey out of his dead carcass. One David to kill the Giant of the Philistines and to sing the songs of the mind of God. And His Son who was to save His people from sin. Matt. 1:21. One Solomon a king, who was given wisdom to give words of t r u t h about wise and fools; about rich and poor, high and low, old and young, male and female, free and bound. Oh, how much the more might be said about this one Solomon. One Isiah saw the Lord high and lifted up and his train filling the temple from the sight has was made fit to go with the messager of the Lord to the great dogs, shepherds and blind watchman and fashionable women t h a t rule over God's people, as of today. Isa. 3:13, Isia. 56:7-8. To lift His voice like a trumpet, showing the people their sin.

God rules in one Jerimiah, sanctifying him before he came into the world. Jer. 1:5: One E z r a given to show the house of Isiah t h a t they would or should measure pattern and be ashamed of their ways. E z r a 43:10.

On John the Baptist forerunner of Christ, fulfilling the law. One Jesus died on the Cross and rose; one Christ from the dead t h a t all who were dead in the graves might be raised up from the dead. One Jesus ascended up into Heaven for all and with all t h a t may go up into Heaven. One Jesus sent the Holv Ghost on all t h a t received Him. God's church is made one, of 25

every nation, tongue and people that are upon the face of the earth. So the church is the body of Christ. Eph. 1:22. Christ is the head of the body, "the one church". Eph. 4:4-5.

God rules in one faith and in one Lord and in one baptism. One Lord in one Apostle commanded all to walk by the same rule. Phil 3:16. God showed to one John the Holy City. The New Jerusalem coming down from God out of Heaven which had twelve foundations, had twelve g a t e s ; three in East, three in West, three in South and three in North. At the gates twelve angels had names of twelve tribes of Israel. In the foundations are the names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb. Rev. 21:1-4. So we see One yet ruling.

One Mother born one son, One F a t h e r begat . . . .

One death to kill him.

Be this all to the glory of God. C. H. MASON. POWER OF CLEANSING IN THE BLOOD The blood og Jesus cleanses from all sin (not the w a t e r ) . John 1:7-9.

God's word says: Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sin. Heb. 9:22.

It has been and is being t a u g h t by some t h a t the water remits the sins when we are baptized in J e s u s ' name. Beloved, understandeth thou what t h y readeth. Not, "Without the dipping into water there is no remission but the "Shed " blood. Nor does it say the water washes away our siins. John said: Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. (Not the water.) John 1:2-9. John said in Rev. 1:5: Unto Him who loved us and did wash us in His own blood water couldn't love us. It was Jesus who could love and did wash us in His own blood.

The blood of Christ purges the conscience from dead works to serve a living God. Heb. 9:14. The blood of the covenant sanctifies. Heb. 10:29.

O, my dear workers, you are in danger, yea, great danger to lead the people into a denial of the blood. To deny the blood and put the Son under foot is wilful sin. The blood os our only hope for putting away sins.

I t is the Spirit of Antichrist t h a t would make one say t h a t those who have other women's husbands by being baptized in water (prayed over and annointed) would make it alright.

Nowhere did Jesus nor the Disciples p r a y annointing on water.

Now, if the mancan stay with the other man's wife then it won't be any need of t h e man who abuses himself with another man. 1 Cor. 6:9.

Changing his life just get baptized and t h a t will keep the act from being sin. Oh, beloved, sin must be forsaken before and after baptism. But we fnd the Antichrist to be a liar as t h e word says.

HOW THE EARTH OPENED BENEATH THE FEET OF A GARAGE LABORER AND REVEALED THE LONG LOST UNDERGROUND CHURCH WHERE THE SAVIOR'S TWO GREAT DISCIPLES PREACHED AND HID FROM PERSECUTION Not long ago workmen were digging for the foundations of a big taxicab garage an the Viale Manzoni, an exceedingly modern avenue of Rome, Italy.

They had made an excavation of about six feet deep when suddenly there was a loud crackling and one of them slid down and out of sight through a hole which had opened beneath his feet. The others scrambled out of the pit, returning with lights and ropes.

It was clear that their comrade had fallen into one of the many ancient suberranean vaults which underly the Eternal City and which, like the Catacombs, were largely the work of the early Christians who used them not only as places of worship, but as hiding places during their persecution.

But when the rescue party, lowered cautiously through the orifice that had opened so strangely, stood upon firm ground they forgot for an instant, in their wonder and awe at their surroundings, the groaning man they had come to help. Far overhead was the hole through which they had come.

The circles of their electric torches flashed upon the walls of an enormous chamber. These walls were covered with paintings upon which the destroying hand of time had rested but lightly.

There was something about these paintings that was—unusual— They were life size, and in some curious way they seemed to have life in them.

Their eyes looked gravely, solemnly, at these men who had swarmed down the ropes into their hidden sanctuary centuries after the hands that had painted them had been dust—and as the circles of light flickered over the walls the painted figures seemed to move.

The rescuers crossed themselves and tied the injured workman to a sling.

One of them, bolder than the rest, crept to a wide doorway and shot his light through it. Beyond was another great chamber whose walls held other mysterious paintings and wide entrances to still other chambers.

The workmen were ifted up into the street. Word of the happening was sent to Professor Paribeni, the Superintendent of Antiquities of Rome.

After he and his staff had arrived, had been lowered into the place of the paintings and, hours after, had been drawn up again, the garage operations were abruptly and officially ended. And forever!

For Professor Paribeni announced that from his examination he believed was probably the first real Christian church in Rome.

And that among the paintings on the walls were two which were, apparently, authentic portraits of St. Peter and St. Paul!

Those who had been digging for the garage had been, in fact, exactly like men who, sinking a gravel pit, suddenly find they have tapped a diamond mine. The Roman authorities immediately took charge and completed the excavations.

When this was done the scientists found an underground building of the most astonishing construction. It was a mixture of halls, stairs, recesses galeries and crypts so mixed and confused as to baffle description.

St. Paul, the great Apostle to the Gentiles, who put the missionary spirit int othe new faith, and went out with the oher Aposles o teach it, was convered just outside Damascus by that historic vision in which he was called to account for atttacking Christ and Christianity.

SOME OF GOD'S "STRANGE WORK" It comes to us that in parts of Mississippe flesh was poured down from the heavens and piled up in the streets. A kind though, that was refused by dogs and the cats had no desire for it. Also a dog was found preaching the gospel in one of the streets in a Mississippi town. The time of the end is surely near.

An extract: 27

Doctrinal Subjects of T he Church of God in Christ GOD'S OATH God swore t h a t men should live holy all his days. It is the t r u t h ?

—Luke 1:73-75.

The oath which He swore to our F a t h e r Abraham, t h a t He would g r a n t unto us, t h a t we being delivered out of the hands of our enemies, might serve him without fear in holiness and righteousness before him all the days of our life.—Luke 1:73-75.

If man cannot live holy by God's help all his days, did God swear the truth?

Grace brings it.—Tit. 2:11, 12. . : God sanctifies wholly.—1 Thess. 5:23-25.

God's.will is to. sanctify to keep from fornication.—1 Thess. 4:3.

If we are sanctified Jesus is our brother.—Heb. 2:11.

They t h a t are so, are in Christ.—Jude 1:1; St. John 17:17.

Holiness of the body—Romans 12:1. . . Temple of the Holy Ghost is holy.—1 Cor. 3:16, 17.

All are to be righteous.—Isa. 60:21.

A holy nation.—1 Peter 2:9.

Holy people are a special above all people t h a t are upon the face of the earth.—Deut. 7:6, 7; Lev. 11:44; Deut. 28:9, 10; Matt. 5: 48; Luke 6:40.

What we eat is sanctified by the word and prayer.—Tim. 4:4-5.

Without holiness no man shall see the Lord.—Heb. 12:14.

Ministers are not to be ordained unless they are holy.—Tit. 1:5-8.

Jeremiah was sanctified before he came out of the womb.—Jer. 1:5.

In St. John 17:17 the Lord prayed for His disciples to be sanctified and not only them b u t all who should believe on Him through their word Sanctification is for us and.our children.—Acts 2:39.

1 Cor. 7:18-28: And God designed t h a t we should be holy before the world began.—Eph. 1:4.

Zacharias and his wife were both righteous before God and walked in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless until Jesus came.—Luke 1:6..

Some preachers say t h a t we cannot live holy every day, but God swore t h a t we could. Now, who is r i g h t ? The word s a y s : "But let God be t r u e and every man is liar." I t is impossible for God to lie.—Heb. 6:18.

So. "Follow peace with all men, and holiness without which no man shall see the Lord."—Heb. 12:14.

Is It Right for the Saints of God to Dance?

Yes. The word of the Lord says: "Let them praise Him in the dance."

—Psa. 149:3, also 150:4.

"Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together."—Jer. 31:13.

"When Israel's joy ceased her dance was turned to mourning."—Lam. 5:15; Judges 21:21.

"There is a time of dance or a time of dancing."—Eccl. 3:4.

"David danced before the Lord with all his might."—2 Sam. 6:16.

"We m a y sing and dance."—1 Sam. 21:11.

When God builds up his people as they are to be built up, then shall they go forth in the dance."—Jer. 31:4.

People may go and dance with the wrong purpose or object in view, as did Israel.—Ex. 32:19.

Dancing shows t h a t <we have victory.—1 Sam. 18:6. Sometimes there may be only women in the>dance.—1 Sam. 18:6; Ex. 15:20. God turned for me m y mourning into dancing.—Psa. 30:11.

Dancing is mentioned four times in the New Testament. Christ himself making mention of it.—Matt. 11:17; Luke 7:32. In the 15th chapter, 28

25th verse of Luke, Christ, in His parable of the prodigal son, says he was received with music and dancing. Dancing here denotes or expresses joy, and t h a t very g r e a t joy. It is a parable of t h e heavenly joy over the repentance of one sinner. Dancing of the people of God is to be in the spirit of Jesus only, and fpr Jesus only, for as in Jesus only we rejoice and dance and praise God. We must have Jesus and all Jesus. Jesus in all things in the Church and His Saints.

The people cf God do not dance as the world dances, but as moved by the Spirit of God. So you can see it is all in the Spirit of God, and to the glory of God. It is not to satisfy the lust of the flesh, or the carnal appetite as the world's dance, but out to glorify God, and satisfy the soul. The world dances of the world, about the world and to the world.

The children of God dance of God, for God and to the praise and glory of His name. They have t h e joy of t h e Spirit of t h e Lord in them. They are joyful in their Kingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the Christ.

A t times they may be dancing Christ is all, or none but Christ. How sweet it is to dance in Him and about Him, for He is all.

So to dance in the Spirit of the Lord expresses joy and victory.

Amen!

Do People Tremble Under the Power of God? Do people tremble when they are under the power of God? And if so, is it r i g h t ? Yes. Please read now in this subject. Psa. 2:11, which says, "Serve the Lord with fear and rejoice with trembling.". Eph. 6:5. Servants with trembling. 2 Cor. 7:15. Well, if one is sanctified will he s h a k e ?

Answer, yes. Jeremiah was sanctified. Jeremiah 1:5, and he did shake.

Jeremiah 23:9 said he beheld the mountains and they trembled. Jeremiah 4:24, and when we see God in His mighty power we may shake. Habakuk said his belly trembled and his lips quivered. Habakuk 3:16. Can one fall under the power when he is not seeking God? Yes. Paul fell. Acts 9:4. Will he tremble ? Yes. Acts 9:6. Felix trembled while Paul preached to him. Acts 24:25. Paul was in much trembling in Corinth. 1 Cor. 2:3. He was full of t h e Holy Ghost. Will t h e Holy Ghost cause the place where people may be gathered to shake a t any time ? Yes, at some times. Acts 4:31. W h a t may be after he shakes the place and the people? "And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost." Acts 4:31.

If the Church is praying to God and some fall on their faces, are they hypnotized? No. I t shows t h a t God is in the people of God, of a t r u t h . â&#x20AC;&#x201D;1 Cor. 14:24-25.

If God's children saw one t h a t was hypnotized by some man, would t h a t hypnotize the child of God? No, for God's children have power over all the power of the devil. Luke 10:19. " F o r greater is he t h a t is in you than he t h a t is in the world." John 4:4. Do the people of God have to fall out when He wants to show or work in them some new t h i n g ? No, only as He will there a r e differences of administration, but the same Lord.

(1 Cor. 12:5-6.) Men fell when Jesus owned t h a t He was the Christ. John 18:6. Also when he arose from the dead, the keepers did shake and became as dead men. Matt. 24:4.

Rain falling on anyone may cause them to shake. We are now having the l a t t e r rain, t h a t is, the Spirit poured out upon us when dry bones hear and receive the word of the Lord, they will shake. Ezek. 37:1-7. John who was Christ's beloved was full of the Holy Ghost, being old in the cause.

He fell as dead when he saw Him. Rev. 1:17. Ezekiel fell on his face.

Ezek. 1:28. All to the glory of God. What Christ Says About Them that Believe And these signs shall follow them t h a t believe: In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues. Our Lord Jesus did not say t h a t some of them t h a t believe should speak with new tongues, but them t h a t believe shall speak with new t o n g u e s / This promise is to them t h a t believe: it is not to t h e unbeliever. When did this great work begin?

On the day of Pentecost. Acts 2:1-5. And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. Suddenly there 29

came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing, mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of t h e m ; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with new tongues as the spirit gave them utterance.

This promise is to all t h a t believe. Acts, 2:38-39. They spake with tongues at Caesarea, when the Holy Ghost fell upon them which heard the word. Acts 10:44-45.

Believers t h a t went with Peter knew t h a t these Gentiles had received the Holy Ghost when they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God. Acts 10:45-46. The Church at Ephesus spake with tongues when they received the Holy Ghost. Acts 19:6. When we are baptized with t h e Holy Ghost the glory of the son will be revealed to us as never before. He will glorify Christ; He will show us t h e things of Christ. John 16:14.

Did God intend the speaking in tongues to be in the Church? And God hath sent some in the Church, First Apostles; secondly, prophets'; thirdly, teachers. After t h a t , miracles; then gifts of healingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and helps governments, diversities of tongues. 1 Cor. 12:28. For he t h a t speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not to men, but unto God, for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. 1 Cor. 14:2. No man understands him, but the spirit is speaking the mysteries of God, through us. Is it wrong for one to p r a y in tongues? No, for if I p r a y in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth but my understanding is unfruitful. 1 Cor. 14:14. Should we let the spirit pray in us if we do not know what he is saying? Yes, whatj is it then, I will p r a y with t h e spirit and with the understanding, also. 1 Cor. 14:15. We do not understand what to pray for as we ought to. Rom. 8:26. Likewise the spirit also helpeth our infirmities, for we know not what we should p r a y for as we ought; but the spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which can't be uttered. How many ways can the spirit speaking with tongues in us edify the Church? We see four ways. 1 Cor. 14:6. First way, by revelations; second, by knowledge; third, by prophesying; fourth, by doctrine teaching. W h a t more can we say, wherefore tongues are a sign not to them t h a t believe, but to them t h a t believe not; but prophesying serveth not for them t h a t believe, but to them that believe not; but prophesying serveth not for them t h a t believe not, but for them which believe. 1 Cor. 14:22. Should we forbid to speak with tongues? No. Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy and forbid not to speak with tongues. 1 Cor. 14:39.

Are we helped in any way to speak in tongues ? Yes. He t h a t speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself. 1 Cor. 14:4. Would the Holy Ghost have all to speak with tongues? Yes. I would t h a t ye all speak with tongues, but r a t h e r t h a t ye prophesy, for g r e a t e r is t h a t prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues except he interpret t h a t the church than he t h a t speak in tongues when he t h a t speak with tongues cannot interpret, but if he can interpret he is g r e a t or greater, for he may speak in t h e mysteries of God. 1 Cor. 14:2, and he can speak unto men to edification and exhortation and comfort, verse 3. You can see in verse 6 t h a t we may prophesy in tongues and he may speak a revelation with tongues and he may speak t h e word of knowledge with tongues, teach doctrines with tongues. May the Lord open the eyes of all His people of this great mystery. Paul was one of the greatest of the apostles, and he spoke with tongues more t h a n all. 1 Cor. 14:18. Oh, how t h e Holy Ghost doth reveal Chirst to us when we are baptized with Him, and we do speak with tongues as He gives utterance; He will make us know t h a t we are in Christ and Christ in u s ; and Christ in the F a t h e r and the F a t h e r in Christ. John 14:20.

W h a t a sweet unity. Christ is all. W h a t a sweet rest. Christ is all.

God speaks himself in tongues in u s / Isa. 28:12-50; 4:54-17, for with stammering lips and other tongue will He speak to His people, to whom He said: This j s the rest, wherein ye may cause the weary to rest; this is the refreshing yet they would not hear. Rest and refreshing from the Lord when He, the Holy Ghost, is speaking in us with tongues; still the people will not hear. Speaking in tongues is the wonderful work of God. Acts 2:11.

30

Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God. All that did not have this work in them on that day were amazed and in doubt about the wonderful work of God, and so it is today with all that have not this blessed work going on in them, they cannot understand it; they will say everything about it. Sinners, converted ones and sanctified ones and all wonder and will wonder when they hear or see this movement of the Holy Ghost going on in the saints of God. If the Holy Grost does-not speak in them, they can't understand Him speaking the wonderful works of God in other tongues. Oh, dear ones, the word of every promise of God must enter into us before we can understand the wonderful works of the promise in others. The word giveth light and understanding that all may be baptized with this one baptism of the Holy Ghost. He will show us that Christ is coming soon again to the earth. Prepare to meet your God for His glory.â&#x20AC;&#x201D;ELDER C. H. MASON. Residence, 1121 Mississippi Ave., Memphis, Tenn.

THE SONSHIP OF JESUS Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Matt. 1:21. He is not the Father of God but the Son of God, nor is He His own father, for no ^son has ever begotten himself, but all sons have fathers that begetteth them. So Jesus is the only begotten of the Father. John 1:14. God, His Father, took Him and made the world and all things therein. John 1:10. I must say here that I do not know anywhere in the Bible that teaches that Jesus was or is the Father of God, or His own father; but He is our Father. Of His own will begot He us with the word of truth that we should be a kind of first fruits of His creatures. James 1:18. So to believe that Jesus is the Son of God it is to give us eternal life with Him. John 3:15-16.

He is God's Son and is to save His people from their sins. Matt. 1:21; Isaiah 9:6-7. It is said to Him, "For unto us a sonvis given and the government shall be upon His shoulder; and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace."

This text does not say that He was His own father, but that He was His Son and Lord, having the nature of Him that was His Father. So as His Father was Everlasting, it makes Him (Jesus) Everlasting as God, His Father, and as much God as His Father was God. His Father sent Him into the world to save and He was able to save, Isa. 6:13, being the Son of an Almighty Father, equal with His Father. Phil. 2:6. He is the Son in name. Matt. 1:21. He is the Son with power. Rom. 1:4. He is the Son in faith. Gal. 2:20.

He is the Son in glory, in the glory of the only begotten of the Father.

John 1:14. He is the Son of God without a beginning of days, for before the days were, He was in the bosom of the Father, John 1:18, and the days were created by Him so He began days and the days did not begin Him. He had no end of life. Hebrews 7:3. He was put to death in His flesh but was quickened by the Spirit and while His flesh was dead, He went and preached to the Spirits that were in prison with His endless life that was in the Father. 1 John 5:20.

Oh, what a wonder he gave His body up to death and the grave at the Cross, and His Spirit up to the hands of His Father. Luke 23:46. He lived and died the Son of God. He was raised from the dead by the Father that beget Him who by Him do believe in God that raised Him from the dead.

1 Peter 1:21.

Elder R. C. Lawson, of Columbus, Ohio, when in St. Louis, Mo., in a convocation of the Church of God in Christ, said that he believed in the sonship of God and the fatherhood of God and the Holy Ghost; for God was manifested in the flesh, but after Jesus was put to death in the flesh that He was no longer the Son of God, and the Scripture nowhere taught that Jesus was any longer the Son, but was the Lord that Spirit as in 2 Cor. 3:17.

Had the brother not said that the Bible did not teach it. In other 31

words, he said t h a t it was nowhere in the Bible t h a t Jesus was a Son after His resurrection. In a little while it was shown t h a t the brother was wrong about Scripture reading. I listened to hear the brother say t h a t he had made a mistake in his saying; but, after he heard the Scripture read which showed t h a t he was wrong, he went away without correcting his saying t h a t he was wrong.

Now, let us see wThat sayeth t h e Scripture. Romans 1:3: The Spirit of Holiness with power, by the resurrection from the dead, said: " H e was the Son of God." After His resurrection He Himself said t h a t God was His Father. St. John 20:17-21.

Stephen, full of t h e Holy Ghost at his death, saw heaven open and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. Acts 7:55-56.

Many years after t h e ascension of Jesus, John was taken up in the Spirit while on the Isle of Patmos and saw Him and heard Him say, t h a t He had washed us from our sins in His own blood and h a t h made us kings and priests unto God, His Father. He said God was His F a t h e r He said, with His eyes like a flame of fire, t h a t H e was the Son of God. Rev. 2:18.

To us His name is Jesus, which is above every name, for He is the Savior of us all and God with us. The name Son is to God, His Father, and it is more excellent. Heb. 1:45. F o r unto which of the angels said He at any time, "Thou a r t My Son? This day have I begotten Thee."

Son expresses His relation to His F a t h e r and Jesus His relation as a brother t o us. Heb. 2:11. F o r both He t h a t Sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one; for which cause He is not ashamed to call them brethren, saying: "I will declare t h y n a m e unto my brethren." Jesus knew His F a t h e r and His name, and the greatness of His name; so He came to declare God's name, His Father. He did and will declare it. John 17:6-26.

J e s u s ' F a t h e r was greater than His Son. John 14:28. The Son Jesus, dwelt in t h e flesh, and His F a t h e r dwelt in t h e Spirit of His Son Jesus. John 14:10.

Jesus in the flesh died, but God in the Spirit could never die. Are there three in the Godhead? Godhead, yes. Who are t h e y ? The Father, Word and the Holy Ghost. These three are one. 1 John 5:7. Are there three t h a t bear witness on e a r t h ? Yes. The Spirit, t h e W a t e r and the Blood. These three agree in one.

Elder L. A. Bell, of Starksville, Miss., said t h a t Jesus was the name of the Godhead, but we said to him t h a t Jesus was the name of the Son of the Godhead and not the name of the Godhead, so God is the F a t h e r of the Godhead and Jesus is the Son of the Godhead and the Holy Ghost is t h e glory of His all being in the Godhead.

0 ! W h a t a wonder. Baptizing in t h e name of Jesus. Is it r i g h t ?

Yes. But it is only right when it is done like Jesus said to do it. He said in Matt 28:19, "Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the F a t h e r and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost." This is the only way t h a t Jesus commanded it to be done, or said while he was on earth, and He never did say after He went to hea ven for it to be changed by anyone or at any time for it was given to Him from God, His Father, just like it should be said. John 12:49-50. " F o r I have not spoken of myself, but the F a t h e r which sent me; He gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know t h a t His commandment is life everlasting; whatsoever I speak, therefore, even as the F a t h e r said unto me, so I speak." His F a t h e r said it just like Jesus spoke it, and He said it in the name of the F a t h e r and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. I can say for one t h a t I believe t h a t it was said right then, and it is right now, and will be so until the end of t h e world.

What do we baptize f o r ? We are baptized for the dead. 1 Cor. 15:9; Rom. 6:3-5, "Else w h a t shall they do-that are baptized for the d e a d ? " Our baptism, in the n a m e of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost shows t h a t while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by t h e death of His Son, so being reconciled we shall be saved by His life. Rom. 5:10. So we confess in baptism the Father, Son and Holy Ghost unto death; and in all life to live will be t h e Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

82

The three t h a t agree in earth say, t h a t there are three in heaven. Who can say t h a t God and His Son and the Holy Ghost did not know how to count? They said, "Three in Heaven." But some of the wise today say they see it better. God saw " T H R E E " and said " T H R E E . " But the "ONE IN THE GODHEAD P E O P L E " say they only see "one" and could not be "three." God said " t h r e e " and could make them ONE. But we may see "one" and cannot make it "three."

The "One in the Godhead People" are undertaking to show God His wrong sayings. Who can understand His e r r o r s ? Psa. 19:12. So if there are not " T h r e e " in heaven as He said, then there are not " T h r e e " in the earth as He said. John 5:7-8.

Jesus is the Son of God and is the only mediator between God and men. 1 Tim. 2:5. Jesus, God's Son, could be seen, but God, His Father, could or h a t h never been seen. John 1:18. "No man h a t h ever seen God a t any time, the only begotten Son in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared Him." 1 J o h n 4:12; Matt. 11:27. Danger!

He is an antricrist t h a t denieth the F a t h e r and the Son. 1 John 2:22, "Whosoever denieth the F a t h e r the same hath not the Son." Verse 23.

So, to say t h a t Jesus is not the Son of God, it is to m a k e God a liar, because He believeth not the record t h a t God gave of His Son. 1 John 5:10.

One eternal life is in His Son. Verse 11. "He t h a t hath the Son hath life, and h e t h a t hath not t h e Son of God h a t h notlife." Verse 12.

We overcome the world, when we believe t h a t Jesus is the Son of God. 1 John 5:4-5. The F a t h e r sent the Son to be the Savior of the world. 1 John 4:14. "Whosoever shall confess t h a t Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him and he in God." E L D E R C. H. MASON. MARRIAGE "Marriage is honorable in all and the bed undefiled." Heb. 13:4.

The earth was given for man to multiply. Gen. 1:28. And blessed them and said unto them, "Be fruitful and multiply." This was to be without pain to do so. But after man sinned by hearkening to the voice of the woman, she had to bring forth children with pain and sorrow. Gen. 2:16-17.

God blessed man to multiply, so children are an heritage of the Lord. Psalm 127:3; Gen. 1:28.

"Happy is the man t h a t h a t h his quiver full of them." Psa. 127:5.

"God maketh them as arrows in the hand of a mighty man." Verse 4.

"The souls of all men are the Lord's." Eze. 18:4.

"So in one man all souls died, but in Christ all shall be made alive."

1 Cor. 15:22.

If a woman has a desire for her husband, and a husband for his wife, "Is i t s i n ? " No. For it is the desire t h a t God gave them. Gen. 3:16, and it is holy.

"God is righteous in all His ways and Holy in all His works." Psa. 145:17.

But to desire another man's wife, or another woman's husband would be sin, for t h a t is not given to us of God, but the devil. John 8:44.

Marriage is honorable in all and at all times until the coming of the Lord Jesus. God's will is for the young women to m a r r y and bear children.

1 Tim. 5:4. And it is no sin for them to m a r r y and bear children.

Well, if a woman is past the flower of the age to bear children (would it be sin for her to m a r r y ? ) and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not; let them m a r r y . 1 Cor. 7:36. No, the word says if she is p a s t the flower of age.

A man gives his virgin in m a r r i a g e doeth' well. But he t h a t giveth her not in m a r r i a g e doeth better. 1 Cor. 7:38.

A widow is at liberty t o m a r r y t o whom she will if the husband be dead, but only in the Lord. Verse 39. But the young widows refuse, for when they begin to wax wanting against the Lord they will m a r r y . Having damnation because they have cost off their first faith, t h e condemnation is 33

not on her because she wants to m a r r y a man t h a t is in the Lord.

But because she wants to m a r r y one t h a t is not in the Lord. 1 Cor. 7:39.

1 Tim. 5:11-12. Widows duty to be fit for the number. Having been thd wife of one man, well reported for good works. If she has brought up children, if she has lodged strangers, if she has washed the saint's feet, if she has diligently followed every good work. This is w h a t the young widow will refuse to do, and then she will m a r r y out of the order of God, and this is what condemns her.

God's word says: "Neither shalt thou make marriages with them. Thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto t h y son." Deut. 7:3.

The Jews got mixed up in t h a t sin, and had t o separate from the strange woman, to get right with God. E z r a :2. So it is uncleanliness for a believer to m a r r y an unbeliever. So in t h e New Testament times we are forbidden to mix up with unbelievers in marriage. 1 Cor. 6:14-18.

Some say, " T h a t if you m a r r y or have children they will not be ready to be taken up to be with the Lord, or a t the m a r r i a g e of t h e Lamb."

J u s t here I want to say: No flesh and blood in or out of the grave will go up to meet the Lord in the air. But all in the graves and out of the graves m u s t be changed; for flesh and blood cannot inherit t h e kingdom of God, neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

"Behold I show you a mystery, we shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed." 1 Cor. 15:50-55.

The dead in Christ are to rise first, then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet t h e Lord in the air. And so shall we ever be with the Lord. 1 Thess. 4:15-16.

How to love the wife. Prov. 5:18-11 says: "Let thy fountain be blessed and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. Let her breasts satisfy thee a t all times, and be ravished always with her love."

Prov. 18:22. A prudent life is from the Lord. Prov. 19:14, and she may; be saved in childbearing in they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety. 1 Tim. 2:15.

I t is one thing t h a t fits a man to be a bishopâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;to have one wife, and his children in subjection with all gravity. 1 Tim. 1:5. Husbands and wives a r e not to keep themselves from one another except it be with consent for fasting and prayer, and then come together again. If not then it is Satan t h a t has tempted them, and not the Lord. 1 Cor. 7:5.

It is the doctrines of devils to forbid to m a r r y , for God has commanded to marry. When one accepts t h e doctrines of devils to teach others the same, then the seducing spirit will appear unto them to give them exercise in t h e flesh, in dreams or in visions. The woman or man will feel same effect in the flesh, the same as if it was a man or woman, with t h e exception of the increase. Some women give up their husbands and t a k e up with these spirits (seducing) saying it is Christ. The husband waits for these filthy spirits in dreams to communicate with them, after he has given up his wife or t h e thought to marry. I have seen men who have told me of some of t h e works of these filthy spirits. How they would use them in the night, or when they would lie down. I t was awful to h e a r them tell the story of this filthy work. The seducing spirits will use t h e i r bodies, sick or welL C. H. MASON. NO DYING One great thing t h a t was done by the Convocation of the Triumphant Church, which met at New Orleans, La., J a n u a r y , 1914, which lasten ten days, over which Elder E. D. Smith was Bishop. Somehow he had gotten the idea t h a t we do no dying in the flesh and t h a t h e and those who believed in him had gotten on them an immortal flesh which could not die or have pain. But after we had waited before the Lord in prayer for three 34

days and searching the Scriptures to know what God, the Father, and Jesus Christ, His Son, and the Holy Ghost had said about it, we found this doctrine of never dying to be unscriptural and badly misleading to all souls who would hear him and especially who claimed to have obtained t h a t power, also to all who were seeking of it. So, Brother Smith, the leader and advocate of t h a t doctrine, did agree with all the elders and ministers t h a t were present t h a t he and they would not preach it or teach it any more. But they teach only Christ and His fullness, therefore the glory of the Lord fell upon all t h a t were in the room, which caused all to shout for joy for their liberty, for they had been in g r e a t bondage.

The Scriptures expressly declare t h a t whether we live or die we are the Lord's. (Romans 14:7-9.) We went then to the meeting place where the sisters were praying and others and reported victory which God had given us with joy. The Scriptures t h a t considered on the doctrine of the dying and no* dying of the flesh were: 1 Peter 1:24. All flesh is as grass. All grass can die, so all flesh can die, and weave like the grass. None of us has as yet the flesh t h a t cannot die, for t h a t which cannot die is not natural, but spiritual. Our virile or natural bodies will be changed at the coming of the Lord from heaven.

See 1 Thes. 4:13-18: "But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep; ye sorrow not even as others which have no hope, for if we believe t h a t Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this I say unto you by the word of t h e Lord t h a t we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep; for the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout and the voice of archangel, and with the t r u m p of God and the dead in Christ shall rise first."

So you can see t h a t the dead ones in Christ will rise first, then we t h a t are alive in Christ a t His coming will be changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye. See 1 Cor. 15:51. That will be time we get our new bodies t h a t cannot die. See Cor. 15:12-28. Take time and read every verse for yourself, or hear it read. In our natural bodies we all do groan. W h a t for? It is because we a r e waiting for the redemption of our bodies. See Romans 8:22-24. We are all dying daily in our flesh. See 2 Cor. 4:10-18: "Our outer m a n perisheth, but our inner man may be renewed day by day."

Verse 16. If our earthly house or this tabernacle were dissolved we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

2 Cor. 1-2:10. There is only one t h a t hath immortality, t h a t is Christ, which no man can approach unto, whom no man has seen nor can see. 1 Tim. 6:15-16. Now all them t h a t claim to have gotten t h a t body which cannot die are married, or they are wanting to marry, and expect to go on after Jesus comes begetting sons and daughters with the redemptive bodies. Those who teach this doctrine of never dying in the flesh refer to Rev. 2 i : l - 2 , but there is nothing in this passage t h a t contradicts the change we pass through at the time of our death, neither is there anything 1 in it t h a t shows t h a t we will continue to beget sons and daughters after Jesus comes, for the former things will be all passed away, and there will be no more sea, so you need not have it in your mind to be in a business of" t h a t kind. God himself shall dwell with us and we shall be his people and He shall be our God. But let us see now what the Lord says about them t h a t have bodies which cannot die any more. He says they do not marry, nor are they given in marriage, but they are equal unto the angels and are the children of t h e resurrection. See Luke 20:24-36. I w a n t t o say just here if we receive not the love of the t r u t h of God will let us t a k e a lie and be damned. 2 Thes.

2:10-12.

Again, a body t h a t cannot die can neither sorrow, nor have any more pain. Rev. 21:4. So if you have sorrow, pain or t e a r s you m a y know by this t h a t you have not the body which cannot die. Some say t h e prophets died because they did not have the faith, but the inspired apostle tells u s t h a t I have fought a good fight, I have kept faith. 2 Tim. 4:7-8.

It is very interesting to see how they do to get t h a t body. They get down, p r a y a while, then stop saying anything or moving for awhile. Then the leader declares them dead. Then they s t a r t a song and the pretended dead arise and shout, declaring themselves now clothed in their never dying body. J u s t here they are required to stand and tell what they heard or saw while passing through t h a t sham death. Some will tell one thing and some another. Then they will declare themselves in t h a t body t h a t will be here until Jesus comes, as t h a t body cannot die. One of the chief men t h a t helped Elder E. D. Smith to p r a y for t h e people to receive t h a t body, which could not die is himself dead and buried. He was so deep in t h a t mystery of God, said Elder Smith, t h a t the brother could not see him. That man when his spirit was rebuked by the spirit of t r u t h t h a t could not t a k e his saying, he turned and leaped upon the brother and beat him before them all in the meeting' house, then turned to Elder Smith, the Bishop, to give him the same. So, Brother Smith, who had a body t h a t could not die, wanted the brethren t h a t had bodies t h a t could die to take t h e man Taylor away before he h u r t his body t h a t could not die. But the brothers could not do what Elder Smith wanted done, so he had an officer come and t a k e him to jail. The same man had been drinking, committing adultery, saying t h a t nothing he did was sin, yet he was going to be here when Jesus comes, but all know t h a t he is now dead and his body is in the grave. Brother Smith was not troubled with him a t the meeting this time.

Let God be true, but every man a liar. Romans 3:4. " I t isapponited unto man once to die, but after this judgment." Hebrews 9:27. " H e t h a t seeks t o have his life shall lose it." Some say when they get their redemptive body as they call it they will be here when Jesus comes. That would be true if they had such a body. There will be as many sinners here as righteous when esus comes a t the same place and at the same work, b u t one will be taken and the other one left. Luke 17:34-36. Now if we have to get down and get up a body to stay here until Jesus comes w h a t will the sinner have to do to get him a body to stay until esus comes ? I t has been reported by some of the saints t h a t were a t the meeting t h a t I agreed with Brother Smith's doctrine of the no dying of the flesh, but t h e y were mistaken, they did n o t tell the t r u t h of the m a t t e r , for t h a t doctrine was corrected and condemned by t h e word of t h e Lord in t h a t Council and Convocation. Alo Brother Smith and I agreed t o publish' in the paper what was agreed upon in the Council.

So for me t o live is Christ, but to die is gain. Phil. 1:21.

Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints, Psa. 116:15.

We don't have to t a k e any medicine to heal our bodies when we get our redemption, nor use anything to restore our hair, for all will be like our Lord's body without pain, and plenty of hair. Phil. 3:21; Rev. 1:14.

Elder Smith has the medicine to do t h a t work for the members of his faith and will cost so much to get it.

The body m a y die but not the soul. Matt. 10:28.

We believe with our heart. Romans 10:10.

Our souls shall live forever and not taste of death. Psa. 22:26.

The Lord killeth and maketh alive. He bringeth down to the grave and bringeth up. 1 Sam. 2:6; Hos. 13:14.

God has no pleasure in the death of t h e wicked. Ezek. 33:11. But He has pleasure in the death of His saints. Psa. 116:15.

He t h a t shall lose his life shall find it. Matt. 10:39; Mark 8:35; Luke 14:26; ohn 12:25.

J Our dead bodies shall live and rise again. Isa. 26:19.

W h a t the Lord said unto me concerning Brother E. D. Smith and his followers about August 18, 1918. He said he would let them come to their shame. Brother Clark of New Orleans, La., said t o me in Memphis t h a t he had a body t h a t did not have pain, nor t e a r s nor sorrow.

He since t h a t time was. deceived, for he had the mumps so badly t h a t he could not talk without g r e a t pain. Let God be true, but every man a liar.

Another one of Smith's preachers a t Baton Rouge, while preaching t h a t 36

he nor any of his followers could or would die, his baby died. He got someone to take him and wife and the dead baby out of town. He left his wife with the dead baby to have it buried. WTien he came back he was arrested for slipping his dead baby away.

God will bring every work into judgment.

Some are in t h a t faith for what Smith tells them will get when the kingdom is set up. Some pick out the fine houses t h a t they will live in with their redeemed bodies.

The men are told t h a t their proper functions will be restored back to them, and then they can have a number of women. They take Isa. 4c.

2 Pet. 2:1-3 tells us what false teachers will do, and w h a t will become of them and their followers.

But, beloved, follow not t h a t which is evil, but t h a t which is good. He t h a t doeth good is of God, but he t h a t doeth evil h a t h not seen God. 3 John 11th Verse.

Noticeâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Since this writing Elder E. D. Smith died in Abyssinia while on a visit to t h a t country.

FAITH "If thou canst believe; all things are possible to him that believeth."

Mark 9:23. " W h a t things soever ye desire, when ye p r a y believe ye receive them and ye shall have them." Mark 11:24.

"According to your faith be it unto you." Matt. 9:29. " A s thou hast believed, so it be done unto thee." Matt. 8:13.

J e s u s said: "If you believe you shall see." John 11:40.

"Blessed is she t h a t believed, for there shall be a performance." Luke 1:45.

St. Paul said: " F a i t h cometh by hearing the word of God." Rom. 10:17.

Beloved if our h e a r t s condemn us not, then h a v e we confidence towards God. 1 John 3:21.

We take things from people with our hands. If we have no hands, we cannot take a book or an orange. Faith is t h e only hand t h a t can t a k e things from God. God h a s a g r e a t many very good things for us t h a t we are not getting and He wishes to give them to us, and He is looking for the hands of faith to put them in. If you are unbelieving or doubt, you have no hand for God to p u t His good gifts into, but if you have great faith you have a hand for God to p u t His gifts. H e will! p u t good things into it every day. God is always looking for faith and is sure to see it if you have it, but He also sees unbelief and is displeased with it. Jesus never gave gifts to people of unbelief nor helped them, but always did great things for those who believed and H e has not changed and will do just the same* today. God has but one law for all people and t h a t is they can have just what they believe forâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;no more, no less. Jesus with His fingers, touched the eyes of two blind men. We would think the touch of His fingers would give them sightâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but no, Jesus said to them, according to your faith you shall have. J e s u s said, not His fingers but their faith would give them sight. When Jesus was going to heal a sick girl, one said, "Oh! she is^ dead.' ; ^ Jesus said to the girl's father, "Do not fear, just believe."

F e a r is unbelief. The father did believe and Jesus raised his daughter alive. Jesus said all things are possible to him t h a t believe. Nothing is hard for God and He will do all things for faith. Faith is so important t h a t God gives a whole chapter in t h e Sacred Scriptures to tell the great things God did for faith, healed the sick, raised the dead, delivered from lion and from armies, etc., and as God has not changed, He will do the 4 37

same today for those who believe, as faith will bring us what we need from God. We need to see how we are to get this faith. St. Paul says it comes by hearing the Sacred Scriptures. Those who do not hear the word of God do not have faith. Those who hear the Word only have a little faith, but those who hear it daily have much faith; the more you hear it, the more your faith will increase, until you have much and strong faith. We need to read the Sacred Scriptures every day and remember them and meditate upon them so our faith will become great.

It is also necessary to believe in the way Jesus tells us to. Jesus said when you ask God for anything, believe; He gives it to you just then while you are praying. Many people believe God will give what they ask for later on, but Jesus said believe God gives it to you when you pray and it is yours. You may not feel or see anything, but Jesus said if you will just believe that God gives it and that it is now yours, you will surely see and feel it. When we seek things of God we must seek them in the way He tells us to or we shall not get them. Many seek in their own way and get nothing.

Continue to believe God gave you what you asked for when you prayed and praise, thank, worship and adore God because He gave it and wait before Him with all your thoughts and attention on Him, and continue to praise Him and God will make you see and feel what you have belief for.

Jesus said if you believe you shall see, but the believing is put before the seeing. God says, Blessed is he that believeth, for God will do what He promised, ÂŤbut the believing is before the doing. God says the first thing is to believe, God will do the work and you shall see it. Faith always puts God to working. They brought a sick man to Jesus once and as soon as Jesus saw that they had faith He began to heal the sick man, and as soon as He sees that you believe He gave you what you asked Him for, He will begin to work for you.

John says if we have sin in our hearts it will keep us from having faith.

He says if we get all sin out then we can believe. If we ask God for anything and do not get it quickly, we need to see if we have sin in our hearts or life. God says the blood of His Son, Jesus, will take away from us all sin and make us pure and clean. God says if we repent, that is honesty of purpose to quit all sin, now and forever, asking Him to give us power to do so, God will then wash us clean from all sin and make us pure and holy.

And then, Jesus says, when our sins are taken away we can believe. Do not try to believe until God has washed you clean in the blood of His dear Son, because your faith would not please God nor bring you what you desire, God is so holy that He cannot come close to you to help you until all sin is taken away from you. Confess your sins to God, cry to Him for mercy, pardon and cleansing in Jesus' blood, and God will give you what you ask and believe Him for.

If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me. Psays 66:18. Behold the Lord's hand is not shortened that it cannot save, neither His ear heavy that it cannot hear. Isaiah 59:1. But your iniquities have separated between you ajid your God and your sins have hid His face from you that He will not hear. Isaiah 59:2. Jesus said unto her, neither do I condemn thee, go and sin no more. St. John 8:11.

Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple and said unto him, Behold thou art made whole; sin no more lest a worse thing come unto thee. St. John 5:14. When a man gets saved from his sins and goes back into sin, he is seven times worse. When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man he waketh through dry places seeking rest and findeth none. Matt. 12:43-45.

Confess and pray one for another that ye may be healed. James 5:16 and 5:19; Galatians 6:1.

T H E CHURCH As to its n a m e : In the New Testament the general name, we find, was "Church of God," "Church of Christ," "Church of the Saints." Sometimes the church was called after the place as "The Church of the Tsessalonians, in God our F a t h e r and, the Lord J e s u s Christ" (2 Thess. 1:1), "The Church of the Laodiceans" (Col. 4:16). See also Acts 20:28; Romans 16:16; 1 Cor. 1-12; 11:16, 14:18; 1 Thess. 2:14. Let the Lord's name alone be exalted, the church is His. Let her say so a t all times.

The Organization of a Church The church is the body of Christ, t h r o u g h which he operates, saves souls, reveals God's n a t u r e and will do to men and does mighty works, t h u s glorifying His Father, who is in heaven. Eph. 1:22, 23; 5:25; Col. 1:24; Rom. 12:14-21. With 1 Cor. 12:12-57; 1 Cor. 5:20; Phil. 1:6, and 2:12, 13, it is necessary to study these passages well t h a t we m a y properly understand the glorious or holy mission of the church. The word "Church" means a congregation or assembly, and m a y apply to all t h e believers in any one locality or to any particular congregation worshipping together. There were different worshipping bodies in certain localities in Apostolic times. Rom. 16:5; 1 Cor. 16:19. Yet they comprised only one church, because a spirit and faith, in love and interest in t r u t h and tribulation t h e body of Christ is not divided. Christ is one everywhere. Invisibly the saints are organized in Christ by the Holy Ghost. 1 Cor. 12:11-30. Yet there must be some sort of a n organization as to its outward manifestation.

How Shall We Organize?

The law recognizes usually the claims of such a body to exist through its trustees, through whom its property is held and its legal business t r a n s acted. Let us go to the Scriptures to see w h a t is essential to the existence of the church. When the apostle preached in different communities they who believed their word clung to them. Acts 17.4. Their very faith made them one in love, in hope and in trust. They found a meeting place and met together for mutual edification. Rom. 16:5. They chose deacons and elders to care for the flock. Phil. 1:1; Tim. 3. And their faith in one Lord and walking by one rule, and fearing the one God and trembling a t His word of t r u t h , made them one body in Christ.

A church which holds property as a body m u s t be able to identify itself.

I t m u s t have an organic name and m u s t be able to tell who belongs to it as an organic body.

Voting In some way the voice of t h e whole church should be obtained on important m a t t e r s . The voice or vote of a multitude may be given either by standing or lifting the hand, by cries of yea or nay, or amen. Little difference does it m a k e as to which way since the voice of the multitude is determined decently and in order. 1 Cor. 14:40.

Receiving Members Men cannot make people members of Christ. The Holy Spirit does this by faith. Cor. 12:12, 13. Y e t Paul when he went up to Jerusalem joined himself to his disciples. Acts 9:26-28. They rejected him till Barabas vouched for his conversion, because he had been such an enemy. Visible membership in the visible body must be determined by t h e will of the body.

Receive ye one another as Christ received us, to t h e glory of God. Who A r e to Be! Excluded?

Evil and immoral. 1 Cor. 5:7-13; 2 Tim. 3:5.

Those will not work, but meddle and tattle. 1 Thess. 1, 1:6-15.

Heretics. Titus 3:10-11; Rom. 16:17.

Unruly. Matt. 18:15-18; Gal. 5:16-21.

Christ being present in spirit and working in all it is really God who does the t u r n i n g out and t a k i n g in. Then t h e work is done! in heaven and in earth. Matt. 18:18. Much depends on t h e proper exercise of discipline 39

in the church as the body of Christ must be kept wise and clean and strong.

Eph. 5:1-10.

W e believe t h e only way to be a Christian is to believe the gospel of Jesus and live as He commands you. " H e t h a a t saith I know Him and keepeth not His commandments, is a liar, and the t r u t h is not in him." 1 John 2:4. We believe Jesus saves His people from sin (Matt. 1:21) and keeps them from evil. (St. John 17:15.) We believe whosoever is born of God does not commit sin. 1 John 3:9. We believe by God's grace we can live sober, righteous and godly in this present world. Titus 2:11. We believe we must be holy, sanctified to God. 1 P e t e r 1:15. Body, soul and spirit. 1 Thess. 5:23. We believe without holiness no man can see God. Heb. 12:14. Our mission and work as ministers of the gospel of Christ: "Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost." Matt. 28:19. No man t h a t is sent of God can scorn and drive away one nation and teach to another.

"Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature." He t h a t believeth and is baptized shall be saved; he t h a t believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; in my name shall cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing it shall not h u r t t h e m ; they shall lay hands on t h e sick and they shall recover." Mark 16:15-18.

We believe in water baptisms according to the examples given in the Bible by the Savior and His disciples. Matt. 3:13-16; Acts 8:38.

"Buried with Him by baptism into death." Rom. 6:4.

We believe in the baptism with the Holy Ghost as God's blessed gift of power from on high, according to the Scriptures. John the Baptist spoke of it. Matt. 3:11. Jesus received it. Matt. 3:16. Jesus promised it to His disciples. Luke 24:29; John 14:15-17; Acts 1:5-8. The disciples received it and spake with tongues. Acts 2:4; Acts 10:44; 19:6.

We believe in divine healing in answer to the p r a y e r of faith and laying on of hands according to the Scriptures. Luke 9 : 1 ; Mark 16:18; James 5:4. No man proves t h a t the Lord is working with him, confirming His word, unless the signs are following. Mark 16:20. Because of the many false reports t h a t have gone out concerning the church and the meeting, I feel it my duty to put this before the public t h a t all may know the t r u t h about what we believe and teach. A word of warning to all t h a t speak against it: For by thy words you shall be justified, and by your words condemned. Your words will meet you in the judgment. Matt. 12:36-37.

To hinder or offend one of the least of God's children, Jesus said you are better off with a millstone about your neck and drowned in the depth of the sea. Matt. 18:6. To speak a word against the Holy Ghost there is no forgiveness in this world nor in the world to come. Matt. 12:31, 32.

The Military Government of the Church First, the church as a local body may be preached out and water baptism administered by any local organized minister of the body. Acts 8:5-12.

To organize means to enroll the names of those t h a t believe the gospel of Jesus. F o r example, read Acts 1:15, 2:41. And unite in any convenient place or locality for worship. The Elder t h a t preached out the people or licensed and sent the preacher who did, m a y organize the* body and ordain and appoint Elders over the same. Titus 1:5. And any Elder after being ordained has t h a t same power and authority. And when they had ordained them Elders in every church and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to t h e Lord on whom they believed. Acts 14:23.

Paul to Timothy said, "And the things t h a t thou hast heard of me among many witnesses the same commit thou to faithful men who shall be able to teach others also." Tim. 2:2; Titus 1:5. When the apostles ordained Elders they prayed with fasting and commended them to God. When they left Elders a t any place they left them with the same power and authority t h a t they themselves had and what was to set in order the things t h a t are wanting ordain Elders in every city and appoint the same as they have been appointed.

This being true the Elders ordained and appointed and left in any place 40

is the proper authority and head of t h a t local body or bodies, t h a t he is over the Elders t h a t ordain and appoint other Elders m a y return any time.

The Lord leads them to -see how they do. Acts 15:36.

All m a t t e r s of differences and doctrinal disputes t h a t could not be settled by the pastors and Evangelist Elders or Overseers, were referred to the General Council of Apostles and Elders a t Jerusalem. Acts 15:1-2.

And what the General Council of Apostles and Elders a t Jerusalem agreed upon was sent out to all the churches by letter and all of the churches were established. Acts 16:4-5.

These important m a t t e r s were not left to any one of the Apostles to pass on, but were agreed upon by the Council of the Apostles and Elders which were at Jerusalem, and it is not best, neither safe, for any one of us to usurp that authority today. But in the multitude of counsel there is safety.

Local Bodies A local church is a number of believers in Christ united together as a church or body with a recognized head or overseer over the body. Acts 20:28. It is also good and right for a number of churches to unite together with a head or district overseer, likewise the duty of t h e District or State Overseer is to hold District or State Convocations for the general spiritual and financial development of the Church. Also any m a t t e r t h a t cannot be peaceably and agreeably settled by the pastor and local church can by the pastor or deacons be referred to the State Overseer and he may hear the m a t t e r ; or if he sees it necessary he may call two or more Elders to consider the m a t t e r with him, and prayerfully settle all m a t t e r s according to the Spirit and Word of God. The State Overseer should not take up any m a t t e r in local body unless he is called by the pastor or deacons.

The General Convocation To further develop the spiritual and financial uplift of the Church, it is necessary to have a General Convocation and General Council of Elders with the General Overseer to meet annually. And any m a t t e r t h a t cannot be settled agreeably by the State Overseer and Elders be referred to the General Council of Elders and General Overseer, and the General Council and General Overseer should not hear or take up any m a t t e r from any local Church or State unless it is referred to them by the State Overseer and Elders of the State Convocation.

The State Overseer with the Counsel of Elders of the State may advise and make changes in pastors when conditions show it best to do so; likewise the General Council of Elders with the General Overseer m a y at any time advise or make changes in the Overseers of the State when conditions prove it is best to change, and all are to be subject one to the other in the love and fear of God. The annual list of churches and preachers was not to begin with and is not now an annual list of appointments, but was and is yet only a list of the Churches and preachers prepared annually as required by the Clergy Bureau of the Railroad Company. Otherwise we have no need for an annual list of ministers and churches.

Scriptural Discipline of the Church of God in Christ F i r s t it is divinely instituted, Matt. 16:15-18, and built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief corner stone, Eph. 2:20-22. How we get into the church. Then they t h a t gladly received His word were baptized, and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. Acts 2:41, Acts 8:12-37, 38. The apostolic government of the Church. First Jesus called twelve apostles, not one but twelve. Matt. 10:1-5. And He gave them (not him) authority saying: " I will give unto thee t h e keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatsoever t h a t shalt bind on e a r t h shall be bound in heaven, and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loose in heaven," Matt. 16:19, John 20:23. This authority for the church general was executed by the apostles and elders' council. Acts 15:1-6. And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter. Peter spoke first of how the Lord made choice among us that the gentiles by mouth should hear the word of the gospel, verse 7, next Barabus and Paul, verse 12. Next J a m e s spoke and gave his sentence t h a t we trouble not them, but t h a t we write unto them, t h a t they abstain from pollutions of idols and from fornication and from things strangled and from blood, verses 13-20. Then pleased it the apostles and elders with the whole Church, verse 22, and they wrote letters (not I wrote), but they wrote letters. After this manner the apostles and eiders and brethren send greetings unto the brethren which a r e of the gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia.

It seemed good unto us (not me) being assembled with one accord to send chosen men unto you. F o r it seemed good to the Holy Ghost and t o us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary t h i n g s ; and so were the Churches established in the faith. Acts 16:5. It is clear t h a t the Church of God has from the beginning been governed by the council of the apostles and elders, and we cannot find where either of the twelve were ever given or exercised power and authority over all the rest and there is no possible way for any one to possess such a prosecution and authority only by assuming it, usurping or accepting it by the voice and consent of men like Methodist bishops, and other men who stand a t the head of great organizations of men. But, not so in the Church of God. When Jesus saw the spirit among the disciples desiring to be the greatest He rebuked it by taking a little child and sitting it in the midst of them, and said, "Verily I say unto you, except ye be converted and become as little children ye cannot enter into t h e kingdom of heaven." Matt. 18:2-3. Deacons appointed. Acts 6:2-6. Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them and said, " I t is not reason t h a t we should leave the word of God and serve tables. Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among seven men of honest report fully of the Holy Ghost and wisdom whom we may appoint over this business," and the saying pleased the whole multitude; and they chose Stephen with six others whom they set before the apostles, and when they had prayed they laid hands on them. Acts 6:2-6. I t is clear t h a a t the m a t t e r pertaining to the development of the Church was done by the council of apostles and elders, the character of deacons. I Tim. 3:8-13. How the apostle was elected through p r a y e r and leading of the Holy Ghost in the apostles. After J u d a s by transgression fell they appointed Justus and Mathias and they prayed and they cast forth their lots (not m e ) , one, but they, the council, cast forth their lots and the lot fell upon Mathias, and he was numbered with eleven apostles. Acts 1:26. The ordination of elders, the twelve apostles ordained elders in Jerusalem and sent them out with the same power and authority to do the same, and when they had ordained them elders in every Church and had prayer with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed (Acts 14:23), and those whom they ordained were given the same power and authority. For this cause I left thee in Crete t h a t thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting and ordain elders in every city as I had appointed thee. Titus 1:5.

From t h e scriptures we see t h a t each one of the apostles and elders were endowed with the same power and authority as those whom they ordained in every city were authorized to do the same.

42

Duties of Elders The apostle Paul's farewell to the saints at Ephesus: He reminded them of his examples of labor and teaching among them from t h e first day t h a t he came to Asia for the space of three years. "I ceased not t o warn every one night and day with tears. I have civeted no man's or gold or apparel! Yea, ye yourselves, know that these hands have ministered unto my necessities, and to them t h a t were with me." Acts 20:17-38. From the great apostle's example we see it not a disgrace for a minister to work with his hands for the gospel's sake and for his necessities and for those t h a t he is responsible for. Elder's duty towards the sick, J a m e s 5:14-15. His duty to the flock, I Peter 5:1-5. The elders are exhorted to feed the flock of God, the younger t o submit themselves to the elder and all to be sober and vigilant.

Duty to the Christian ministers: To encourage, I Cor. 16:10-11, to esteem, Phil. 2:29; I Thes. 5:12-13; I Tim. 5:17. To provide temporal support, I Cor. 9:7-23. To imitate the examples of I Cor. 11:1. Be ye followers of me even as I am also of Christ.

Ordinances of the Church of God in Christ: First, we according to the Bible examples do baptize each believer in Christ t h a t bring forth fruit meet for repentance by immersion or burying them in water. Therefore, we are buried with Him by baptism into death t h a t like as Christ w a s raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. Romans 6:4. Examples: And Jesus when He waยง baptized went up straightaway out of the water. Matt. 3:16. And He commanded the chariot to stand still; and they went down both into the water both Philip and the eunuch, and He baptized him. Acts 8:38. We use the same words t h a t Jesus gave. Baptizing them in the name of the F a t h e r and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Matt. 28:19. Next, the Lord's supper, and as they were eating Jesus took bread and blessed it and gave it to them saying, "Drink ye all of it." " F o r this is my blood of the New Testament which is shed for many for the remission of sins." Matt. 26:26-28.

Carried on in the church by the apostles. " F o r I have received of the Lord t h a t which also I delivered unto you t h a t the Lord Jesus the same night in which He was betrayed took bread and when he had given thanks He brake it, and said, 'Take, eat, this is my body which is broken for you; this do in remembrance of me.' And the same manner also He took the cup when He had supped saying, "This cup is the New Testament in my blood; this do ye as oft as ye drink it in remembrance of me. For as often as ye eat this bread and drink this cup ye do shew the Lord's death till He come'." I Cor. 11:23-26.

"If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet ye ought to wash one another's feet, for I have given you an example." St. John*13th chapter.

DANGER FOR RULERS TO CHANGE THE ORDINANCE AND LAWS OF GOD

By Elder Chas. H. Mason "God will make the earth empty for it." Isa. 24. Chap. 1-6 Verses.

"Behold the Lord maketh the earth empty. And maketh it waste and eurneth it upside down and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. And it shall be as with the people, so with priest as with the servant, so with the Master, as with the maid, so with the Mistress, as with, the buyer, so with the seller, as with the lender, so with the borrower, as with the t a k e r of usury, so with the giver of usury.

"The land shall be utterly emptied and utterly spoiled, for the Lord hath spoken this word. The earth mourneth and fadeth away; the world ianguisheth and fadeth away. The haughty people of the earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof, because they have transgressed the laws. Changed the ordinances, broken the everlasting covenant. Ordinances being changed by rulers. God says service should go on all night in an evil time like this so as for Him." "The Lord to change the evil day." Joel 1-13. Rulers order the Holy people to close services a t 9:30 p. m., some say 10:00 p. m. and no longer.

But God says for the ministers and the assembly to come and lie all night and pray unto the Lord. Joel 1-13-14. Rulers want the ordinance changed concerning the noise. The word says make a loud noise, all t h e earth.

Ps. 98-4; Ps. 81.1.

Rulers: God's word says to make a loud noise. Now what do you say about i t ? God says to the sea, Roar, who now can stop them, or who will t r y to do so ?

Jesus, our Lord, held service all night and healed all t h a t came and waited. Luke 4-40-42. Oh! how the bodies of the people would get healed today, if they could have the spirit of Christ to hold meetings all night in praising God. He says, "Bless the Lord, all ye servants of the Lord t h a t stand in t h e house of the Lord by night." Psa. 134-1. Paul held meetings all night, and it gave power to restore life again. Acts 20-7-12. God's meetings and praise held in men's* hearts all night would break up all evil in the land today, all the thieves and all the murderers, drunkards, liars, whoremongers, and all evildoers would be changed if they only had all night and all day meetings in their hearts, instead of having the Devil t o hold his all night and day meetings in their hearts, to do by the evil one until he make the death and ruin of others and themselves last of all. Oh! how God is wasting the earth today with the winds and with the waters, with famines and the earthquakes, with flames of devouring fire. Isa. 29:6.

God is making the e a r t h waste with His g r e a t a r m y of worms. Joel 1-4. All this is because men have changed the Ordinances of God. E L D E R CHAS. H. MASON.

E a r t h , in the form of potatoes of various shapes, a hand cut from a truee, a stick with a serpent's head; a dog's head and other of God's handiwork; all showing how God is revealing t h e secrets of man, t h e mystery of iniquity, by the wisdom of God as manifested through our Apostle, Elder C. H. Mason. How God did use him to unfold the scriptures, his understanding of the word being opened, by and through an experience in God. He, in speaking to the ministry, said: ""Brethren, subject yourselves unto Jesus, for he is your head. Be loyal for little ones are to be fed. Be filled with his praises and baptized into His what to say, and He will bind every foe, God is giving you. H e a r ye t h e word of the Lord." Our Chief Apostle prayed for God to regulate the weather and he answered his prayer, making it available for the people to gather every day and night, and sermons by our Noble Ministers were preached in power. From three to give thousand people were present during the day, and from eight to ten thousand at night heard the word of t h e Lord. The light was wonderfully turned on, no place for man to hide. God has given to us a leader whom every Saint loves, and is loyal to, proving their layolty t h r o u g h good works and deeds. Monies were brought to the amount of $16,000.00 for the fostering of the Gospel, to defray expenses on the Home and to pay off indebtedness on the Temple, and other expenses accrued during the meeting.

The Overseers, Pastors and laity are loyal to their leader, Elder Mason, as he follows Christ in his oversight of the Church of God, to feed them.

The people of Memphis showed their loyalty to the cause of Christ by their presence and contribution of their means. We were glad for those who came to us with words of wisdom, along material, social and metaphysical lines, for we should all be workers together with him.

The poor were not forgotten, God having prepared the h e a r t s of t h e saints and friends t h a t they give both their money and clothing. A trunk of clothing sent in was distributed t o those in need.

We honor and revere our General Supervisor of Women's Work, Mother Lizzie Robinson, whom God has chosen to systematize the Âťwomen in their labors. Truly she is a leader and she h a s beautiful State Mothers working with a might and a will, sending in reports t h a t God is pleased with, all working by the same rule and speaking t h e same thing. Reports t h a t were worthy of commendation telling of their untiring works and labors for the salvation of souls and then of their renewed determination to do more the incoming year for our General Mother and National Work.

Let us say with Jesus, "Let her alone."

Every convenience possible was made for t h e comfort of the saints in the dining room, cafeterias and in the Home. Provisions were sent in to feed and bedding was for those to sleep. Beautiful quilts, sheets, towels, knives, forks and many other necessities for the furnishing of the Home.

The State Mothers have proposed to continue in their financial drive until the Home is complete in cleanliness and in furnishings.

The Churches of God in Christ are glad for the Geridge School, in Arkansas, under the supervision of Elder J. Bowe and Sister Jones. F r o m the beautiful program rendered we saw the boys and girls in training, all to the glory of God. Not only a training of the intellect and hands, but a spiritual training, from a knowledge of t h e word of God, t h a t they walk through life in the fear and admonition of t h e Lord. God is also blessing the labors of Elder E. N. Page, Texas, and Elder S. Rice, Mississippi, in their building of Holiness Schools in those states.

As we neared the close of our session many separated to their respective homes and sad was the parting, but God has so graciously blessed us in body and in our spirits to receive of his greatnes, and to speak of his wonder. The Lord fulfilling the prophecy a s given t h r o u g h our Apostle, Elder C. H. Mason. The spirit in its moving gathered in t h e sheep "Not of this fold." When they heard the Shepherd's voice they came crying: "Men and Brethren w h a t shall we do."

There were three hundred healed and one hundred twenty-five baptized with t h e Holy Ghost and with fire. Such an outpour we have never had before. Also the delegation was the largest ever recorded. There were 47

about fifteen hundred in attendance, from thirty-three or thirty-five states.

The count given by Sister Elia Sparks, Railroad Secretary.

Now closes one of the grandest sessions ever held, and we received more faith and a better understanding of how to suit and serve God and our fellowman.

We p r a y God keep us in t h e fellowship of the spirit and in the sweet communion of the Holy Ghost, not diving after the world's goods, but ever abiding on board the ship, t h a t we be not lost to the spiritual wonders of God. ANNA SMITH, Recording Secretary.

SUBMITTED BY ANNA SMITH, RECORDING SECRETARY Memphis Tenn., November 25, 1925 P R O C E E D I N G S OF T H E E I G T E E N T H A N N U A L CONVOCATION OF T H E CHURCH O F GOD IN C H R I S T God in His goodness has again allowed us to come together in a holy Conclave and we truly thank Him for this wonderful family reunion in the Holy Ghost.

F I R S T DAY S E S S I O N 9:00 A. M. The Spirit of the Lord called us to prayer. We tarried before Him until the fire fell from Heaven and consumed everything not like Him. W h a t a shout went up in thanksgiving for His keeping power.

We are again met with Elder S. T. Samuels, who is on fire for Jesus and who has purposed in his h e a r t to rest day nor night until Jerusalem become a praise on the E a r t h .

AFTERNOON SESSION 12:10 P. M. Our Chief Apostle, Elder C. H. Mason, was greeted in love by the saints of God, and He in t u r n was so glad for the children of the Most High God. The annointing of the Spirit in song was in exhortation to all to be strong in Jesus and to look for healing; for God is loosing men everywhere.

Our coming together t h a t He bless, and his glory prevail. He praying, the Spirit pleaded for the love of Christ to annoint our p r a y e r s all d a y ; God healing making us to know the mind of Jesus.

He prayed t h a t the Lord rebuke Satan, and the saints of God be filled with Christ. His peace abiding; His goodness making us one. The Spirit interceded for the meek and the poor in spirit, and for h e a r t s to be cleansed from evil. The Spirit crying Holy, Holy, Holy.

After a long season of p r a y e r and the souls of the saints refreshed in the Holy Ghost, we listened to words of exhortation from our beloved Overseer. He told us to look for the glorious appearance of Jesus in the mind, for He is giving the l a t t e r rain and revealing the secret of God in the Spirit.

We were exhorted to come together, not to glorify ourselves b u t to look to Jesus and say, yes I will; for in Him we see the power of His coming; conqueroring believers.

Sweet was the exhortation. The Spirit broadcasting to all: The Lord is here, healing.

At this time there are 228 delegates in to glorify God. F r o m Elder Wm. Roberts, Overseer of Illinois, 70 delegates; Elder S. H. Jones, St. Louis, Mo., 70 delegates; Elder W. M. Strasner, Oklahoma, 37 delegates; other states, 51 delegates.

REPORT OF THE CHURCH OF GOD IN CHRIST P o r t of Spain, Trinidad, B.W.I.â&#x20AC;&#x201D;House of P r a y e r , International Home and Foreign Mission Band; greetings in J e s u s ' name. I beg to be allowed to submit the following r e p o r t : I sailed from California on the 2nd of February, arrived a t Christobal, P a n a m a , on the 14th of February. Had to wait 11 days for the next boat, so I inquired as to whether there were any Christians there. I found some said to be the assemblies of God, so I went in to worship with them and found they were sanctified, so I labored day and night with them.

The preacher told the people t h a t he had never heard the gospel as I gave it.* I left them all on the a l t a r waiting for the Holy Ghost.

I came on to Trinidad and began my work here. Souls have been saved and the sick healed by numbers. Now I have a nice little church established; Sunday school, p r a y e r and Bible band, Sunshine band, and Y. P. W. W., all a t work and doing nicely. Through much suffering, thank God I can now say victory is ours.

Money received from the board amounted to $85 from saints otherwise $64.50. Total received, $164.50. I paid out for $89 house rent, $22 for chairs and benches, $4 for lamp and $9.80 for oil. Balance left, $39.70.

I also thank the board for song books and Sunday school literature.

Elder O. T. Jones sent me 1 dozen Y. P. W. W. topics. I also thank God for Elder E. M. Wilson and H. C. Clemmons of Los Angeles, Calif., and also the dear saints and our Mother Roberson. May God ever keep them t r u e and faithful.

We a r e sending $1 to represent the church as a Church of God in Christ, P o r t of Spain, Trinidad.

Brother Timothy Brown has been licensed by the board; also Brother J. F . White.

We had one baptizing, four were baptized with water and now have more to be baptized yet. All I do, I w a n t God to be glorified. So, saints everywhere p r a y t h a t this work will stand until Jesus comes, and wherever I go God will get the glory.

I also thank the Lord for His wonderful healing power. Not many days ago Iasked Sister Martin as she was attending a meeting in Atlanta, while you were there, to bring me a healing cloth.

In being g r e a t wit ha child I had an awful pain in my left side and it r u n n i n g to my head, and seme time it seemed like I would almost die.

And Sister Martin brought the healing cloth t h a t you sent me and I applied it to my side and the pain left a t once, and seems like all the misery went in my tooth on the same side and t h e devil say "now you a r e no better off"; and I took a small piece of the healing cloth and put it in my tooth and I looked to the Lord all I knew how, and by the time I could get my tooth filled and close my mouth I w a s healed in J e s u s ' Name. For I did not use any kind of medicine. Dear Elder Samuel, I thank God, in Jesus' Name for the prayers you prayed for me.

Beloved Elder S. T. Samuel: Holy greetings to thee in J e s u s ' name. Today I t h a n k and praise God t h a t I am yet saved from sin. I also honor the Lord for His wonderful works in the earth.

Elder Samuel, the whole city is on a stir since you left here. The people are wanting you to come back in J e s u s ' name. Elder Samuel, the man you prayed for t h a t had a stroke and was on his crutches and stick, he is walking around without his crutches or stick either. Truly the Lord has blessed him, and also the woman t h a t couldn't walk a t all and you prayedi for her she is doing her work every day; she has not been down any more. She also is cooking out. Truly the Lord has worked a wonder, and He is yet blessing us. Now, dear Elder Samuel, we thank God and we also thank you for the sweet prayers you prayed for us here in Valdosta, Ga. P r a y on for us.

Yours in Christ, E L D E R O. C. BLYTON, Pastor of the Church of God in Christ, Valdosta, Ga. Even so, Come, Lord Jesus.

E Y E S H E A L E D IN J E S U S ' N A M E BY SAINT SAMUEL St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 22, 1925.

Elder S. T. Samuel, My Dear Brother in Christ: Most Holy greetings in J e s u s ' name. I received your letter yesterday.

It found me saved with a mind to go on with Him as never before, for I know of a t r u t h t h a t God is God. Elder Sampel, after I had wrote you t h a t letter telling about the piece of something t h a t came out. Well t h a t next Wednesday, December 16, 1925, another piece came out about a s wide as my finger nail and now, thanks be to God, the eye is completely healed.

I would t h a t I could tell the world the wonder t h e Lord has worked through you. Elder Samuel, now when the doctor first operated on it they put a celluloid tube behind t h e eyeball and it stayed t h e r e for two days, and they took it out, and it didn't heal up the time they said it would the second time then, then they put a rubber tube in it, then so all t h e pus would drain out, then we were disgusted and decided we wouldn't go back any more; so it just continually ran and sometimes bled until the time I wrote to you and the Lord operated on it without a knife.

Thank God and thank you, Elder Samuel. Please accept this. Goodbye. P r a y for me.

From your sister, HAZEL MCDONALD, 2625 Stoddard St., St. Louis, Mo. Samuel is an apostle of Jesus Christ, a man of God. 958 South Fifth Street, Memphis, Tenn., is his address. Sweet Jesus.

ELDER E. M. PAGE, STATE OVERSEER OF TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA

66

Dear Readers: It is a pleasure to me as well privilege to tell how the Lord has blessed and how He will bless those who will surrender to Him, thank God. In the latter part of 1913, the Lord, through Elder C. H. Mason, our Chief Apostle, called me to go to Texas. It h u r t me so bad to think of going to Texas, but after humbling myself before the Lord for five hours in prayer, He spoke to my soul and I said: "Yes, Lord." Not one moment did I resist any more. In J a n u a r y , 1914, I left Memphis for Texas. Arrived in Dallas on the 27th, met the Church t h a t night and they received me gladly.

For five months I labored, without leaving my Church t o go anywhere.

More than one hundred persons were saved and reclaimed. In May, 1914, I took a little band of workers and went to Waco, Texas, where the Lord broke through and saved one hundred and twenty-five souls in six weeks.

And in July, 1914, I went to Houston, and met the first convocation after coming to the state. In this meeting the Lord again saw fit to appoint me State Overseer of Texas through our Chief Apostle. To me that was the worst mistake I thought Eldei Mason ever made. I had several hearty cries about it but went, doing the best I could.

The Lord, through my earnest labor with my brethren, has brought the work from twelve churches to more than one hundred churches in these eleven years. Many thousand souls have been saved, church houses built, 268 acres of school land bought and paid for, and school being erected. I am glad to say Texas produced good preachers and well trained men, which shows for itself. I have held eleven State Convocations and raised $18,308.58. Eighteen thousand three hundred and eight dollars and fifty-eight cents. We have held nine ministers' and workers' meetings, and raised $10,365.91. Ten thousand three hundred sixty-five dollars and ninety-one cents. And in 1925 we raised for the State $10,150.70. Ten thousand one hundred and fifty dollars and seventy cents, making a grand total of $38,825.19. Thirty-eight thousand, eight hundred and twenty-five dollars and nineteen cents. Thank the Lord for all He has done for us. I have not looked for myself, I have looked for the people.

The Lord moved me to go to Oklahoma in 1917, the church at Muskogee was established, Tulsa was revived and also Sand Springs and Shawnee, where they burned two houses to get holiness out of town. Went to Oklahoma City and there founded another good church which stands as one of the leading churches in the state today. With the co-operation of my elders and workers in Oklahoma the state is going to the top. We purchased one whole block of land in Oklahoma City for our state headquarters, built a large tabernacle where thousands are gathered all the summer, also large kitchen and dining room, well furnished with enamel plates and cups to match knives and forks. Watch Oklahoma. We are workers and not shirkers.

Yours for the Master.

CHRISTIAN CHARACTER "Following His Steps." 1 Pet. 2:21.

To the Y. P. W. W., U. S. A.: The great need of the young people of this present age is a deeper consecration when we realize that the multitude still follow the broad way of ease and pleasure, which only lead to shame and degradation. The pleasure resorts, the movies, the house of ill-fame, are filled with the gay and giddy crowd. While only a few find their way to the house of prayer and vineyard of service, where they can learn of Christian ways and follow in His steps. The epicurean philosophy, "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die," is the general creed of the vast majority. But no great achievement, no good influence, no real success ever comes from that source.

No one can be careless and unconcerned, and be successful in building real character. But he must "watch and pray" and see to it that he is following in the steps of Jesus wherever a person has wrought any good work in the welfare of humanity and the extension of Christ's kingdom. We may be sure there was a life of consecration and obedience at the foundation of the achievement. The earnest praying, studious person is often shunned by the thoughtless, frivilous crowd. But when his earnest praying and consecrated efforts have bourn their first fruit in character and achievement, the crowd will look on him with envy and regret, that they did not follow the course that led to some worthwhile end.

1 Pet. 2:21; Prov. 16:9; Psa. 37:23-31. Young people, in striving to build for ourselves a strong character, we must, however, be careful not to confound reputation with character. There are yet too many people who are more careful for the former than the latter, prompted by the mistaken idea that it is more important what others think of them than what they really are in the sight of God. They forget that to the eye of God the inch high difference of human rank have no existence; that to Him the thistles of human loftiness have no elevation, and the mole hill cast no shadow. A good or malicious character is not inherited like riches; man is his own tutor for his character. It is true that life itself is given of God, but it is also true that the character of each life is determined by his possessor. Let me urge you then as young people to build your character on Christian foundation. Flash if you can the divine fire of holiness into slumbering, callous hearts and you that are washed in the blood of Jesus, sanctified through the truth and baptized with the Holy Ghost and fire, array yourselves under the banner of Jesus Christ and be worthy sons and daughters of your heavenly father. 2 Cor. 6:14-18.

ELDER V. M. BARKERâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;2321 Tracy Ave^ Kansas City, Mo. State Overseer of the Church of God in Christ; Western Missouri and Nebraska. Pastor of First Church, Kansas City, Mo., and Joplin, Mo. I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost in November, 1907 in Pine Bluff, Ark. Being called of the Lord to preach the gospel, I immediately went forth as the Lord directed me. After doing the work of an evangelist for 9 months in the state of Arkansas, I left the state for St. Louis, Mo. Making t h a t place a headquarters for four years, laboring there with the brethren in establishing the work there. In the meantime doing some evangelist work through Missouri and other states. In the year of 1912 the Lord laid it upon our h e a r t to come to K a r e a s City. Obeying the call of the Lord we came to this city and began our work. Finding a few saints, namely Apostolic faith people, we were successful in getting a few of them together and organizing the first assembly of the Church of God in Christ in Kansas City. Mo. In making out our report for the General Convocation in Memphis, Tenn., in the year 1912, we represented a body of 17 members. Since t h a t time our work h a s been blessed of the Lord, year by year, and now there are seven other assemblies in K a n s a s City, Mo., t h a t have grown out of our labors in the assembly here. In the year of 1916 the Lord blessed us to buy Church property to the amount of $3,200. A lot with two small cottages on it. Since 1916 up until now, the Lord has blessed us with a large congregation of baptized saints who have paid for our property and have constructed ,a 12-room flat on our g r o u n d ; also put in a stone basement church, where we now are worshiping, at a cost of $6,000' and we now have property paid for valued at $25,000.

F o r this we t h a n k our God. In the year of 1919 our Chief Apostle, Elder C. H. Mason sent us as Overseer of the work of Western Missouri and Nebraska, which office we now hold. Our labors in the district with the co-operation of our brother ministers, State Mother Fannie Jackson, and saints a t large, have been a g r e a t success. Our first Convocation of the district 7 years ago was supported by five assemblies, four of them being very young and small. Now we have in Western Missouri and Nebraska 35 established churches and several missions. We had two meetings a year.

A W o r k e r s ' Meeting in the spring, raising six to seven hundred dollars.

General Convocation in the summer raising from sixteen to seventeen hundred dollars. We have a number of state tents and state workers to operate them and we establish new works and buy property for the "Church of God in Christ," every year. For this we thank our God. Yours for the "one way."

ELDER D. J. YOUNG,

72

Elder D. J. Young, ^ " M i s ^ r vnc\ manager of the Sunday School literature, was born in Chester, South Carolina, about 1861, as a very small boy. He was reared on a small farm owned by his father.

A t the age of nine years, he was sent to a country school along with his eleven brothers and two sisters. After completing the course subscribed for the said institution, he was sent to a higher institution of learning where me made rapid progress.

Being successful in his studies up to this point, his parents sent him to Brainard College of South Carolina, from which he graduated a few years later.

After his graduation, although quite a youth, Elder D. J. Young felt t h a t he was called to the ministry in a struggle for the African Zion Methodist Church, in which he was a minister from early boyhood.

Being the favorite of all with whom he came in contact, Elder D. J. Young became widely known in all the nearby towns wherever he went.

As his ministry improved, he began to travel more into states adjoining his birth state. Everywhere he went he won fame and popularity among old and young.

Having traveled through Georgia, Alabama, Florida, North Carolina and South Carolina, Elder D. J. Young went to Mississippi on behalf of the ministry which he was preaching. It was in this state t h a t he met Miss Pricella Louise Jones whom he later married in W a t e r Valley, Mississippi. However, his m a r r i a g e did not interfere with Elder Young in his travels. Through his vast experiences obtained through his travels, Elder Young was appointed to the pastorate in these various cities: Indianapolis, Indiana; Jacksonville, Florida; Canton ,Mississippi; W a t e r Valley, Mississippi, and Chicago, Illinois.

It was shortly after his appointment in Chicago that God, in His omnipotent power, began to speak to him telling him of a higher life.

Being somewhat exalted in his way an dperhaps over his high position, Elder Young hesitated and ignored the voice of God calling him to a higher life. Still, as t h e Voice continued to trouble him, Elder Young became unsatisfied and greatly troubled and decided to obey the voice of the Lord.

God working in a mysterious way, lead Elder Young to a band of sanctified people, better known as the "Burning Bush" people. He remained with them about two years.

It was while he was with this religious sect t h a t Elder Young became sanctified. After receiving a new light, he began to evangelize, telling of the wonderful new light which he had found.

He traveled far and near preaching conversion and sanctification to people everywhere. In his evangelistic travels he came to Memphis, Tenn., where he met Elder C. H. Mason and Elder C. P. Jones, who were also sanctified preachers.

After his acquaintance with Elder C. H. Mason, Elder Young made his temporary home in Memphis, bat continued his ministerial work in Tennessee and Arkansas.

While in A r k a n s a s doing evangelistic work, he came to Pine Bluff, Arkansas, where he moved his family a little later.

In the meanwhile, Elder Young heard of a great revival in Los Angeles, California, as the news of it was spreading far and wide. He decided to 'go to Los Angeles to see what it was about.

In company with Elder C. H. Mason and others, Elder Young went from Pine Bluff, Arkansas, to Los Angeles, California, to attend this great revival.

One day as he sat in the revival, the mighty Holy Ghost and fire came as a mighty rushing wind and baptized many with the Holy Ghost and with fire.

Being overjoyed of the greatest light which he had found, Elder Young returned to Pine Bluff, Arkansas, preaching the gospel in its fullness and purity, in which many believed.

He was made the first pastor of the new church which sprang from 73

the Sanctified Church. In this office he worked and discharged his duty to the best of his knowledge.

As the truth began to spread, God burdened Elder Young's mind with the thought of spreading it far and wide by means of a religions paper called the "Whole Truth." This paper was sent all over the world, to foreign countries as well as all over the United States.

After pastoring in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, for seven years, God sent him to Beaumont, Texas. Here he was pastor of a small band of fifty members. Elder Young was favored through God with an increase in membership to about two hundred and fifty members.

Having proved faithful in discharging his duty, Elder Mason appointed him first overseer of Texas. He remained overseer for a while but finally gave up in favor of the present over, Elder E. M. Page.

Soon after his resignation, Elder Young began to do evangelistic work in various p a r t s of the north.

In 1916, Elder Young came to Kansas City and started a church in Kansas City, Kansas. He was very successful. Later he was appointed overseer of Kansas, where he served until recently. He was forced to resign on account of ill health.

In the spring of 1916, Elder Young was appointed by Elder Mason publisher and manager of the Sunday School literature of the Church of God in Christ. He is still in charge of the Sunday School literature.

74

The above is the likeness of Mother Hannah Chandler, the State Supervisor of the Women's Work in Texas.

I was an active member of the M. E. Church, of which Rev. N. J. Johnson was pastor. He t a u g h t Sanctification and I received m y first experience of sanctification from his teaching. I was a faithful class leader and also the president of the Home Mission Board. In the year of 1910 Sister Emma James of Memphis, Tenn., came to Dallas, Tex., and t a u g h t the baptism of the Holy Ghost. I had never heard it before.

She expounded it in such a simple way t h a t my poor heart became hungry. She made me to know if I was sanctified I was a candidate for the baptism of the Holy Ghost, and began begging God to baptize me with the Holy Ghost and on the first Sunday in March I went back to the M. E. Church baptized with Holy Ghost and the pastor excluded me, and quite naturally, I haven't been an active worker in the church for a number of years. I felt a little idle and the Lord called Sister J a m e s to go to Tyler, Tex., and I went with her and the Lord gave us a great field of labor in t h a t town and many souls were saved and added to the Church.

After leaving there we worked in the various states. The first State Convocation t h a t I attended was in the state of Arkansas at Little Rock, Elder J. Bowe, overseer. That was in the year of 1911. From there we went to Memphis, Tenn., to the National Convocation. After the convocation closed we went to Mississippi and worked in t h a t state and in 1912 we came back to Memphis, Tenn., to the National Convocation again and when the convocation had closed the deacons of Wellington Street hired me for janitor of the church. I served as janitor for one year, after whieh, I went back to Texas and worked there until 1914, and in November of 1914 I attended the National Convocation and after I had gone back home to Texas I was informed by the state overseer, Elder E , M. Page, t h a t I had been appointed by Mother Roberson, Mother of the Women's Work of the S t a t e of Texas. When I had read the letter, almost unnerved, and I began praying t h e Lord to give me, wisdom so t h a t I might undertake, and when t h e Lord had given me wisdom how to take hold of the work I went into ,â&#x20AC;&#x201D;it with all m y heart. At t h a t time there were only seven or eight churches in the state, but today we have about 150. I have worked these eleven years with Elder P a g e and we have not had any trouble at all. W e are very glad to say t h a t women's work is well organized in Texas.

MOTHER ROBERSON'S REPORTâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;1925 General Overseer, State Overseer, Pastors, State Mothers and Members of the General Assembly: I beg leave to make my annual report for t h e year 1925. Leaving t h e meeting, my first stop Brinkley, Ark. Elder Hal Mitchell in charge. Found them going on nicely with t h e work; on to S t u t t g a r t . Elder Welch was in charge a t t h a t time. They were busy rallying to get means together to build a new temple. On to Geridge School. Held the mid-winter p r a y e r meetings for one week. Geridge is a fine school, in a beautiful place, away from all the evil environments of the city. We found Elder J u s t u s Bowe doing his best t o establish a great Holiness School t h a t will be a credit to the Church of God in Christ. Let us send our children to the Holiness School. Try Geridge. Go on Elder Bowe, Arkansas will cause the other states t h a t have no school to wake up when they see what Geridge is doing.

From there to Little Rock, Ark. Elder Welch in charge and t h a t shouting church was praising God as they always do. To North Little Rock.

Elder J. Bowe in charge. The saints were striving to recover themselves after the storm of the false prophet had blown over. Visited t h e E a s t End Mission. Elder Allen was pastor at t h a t time. Also South Temple in Little Rock. They were going on as best they could, not having a pastor at t h a t time.

Left for home J a n u a r y 26. Found Elder Roberson and little flock marching on to victory. Brother Crawford and Brother Smith of the South Side on t h e firing line for the King.

Left home March 23. Kansas City two night at F i r s t Temple. Elder V. M. Barker pastor and overseer. Always seems like a little state convocation here.

Visited Brother Brown and Brother Smith. Of course they are coming right along in the steps of the Mother Church. They a r e wideawake ministers. Over to Kansas City, Kas. Brother Young, pastor. Found the children with victory in their souls.

From there to Coffeyville, Kas. The saints there were shout'ng victory in the new basement of their church. Elder O. T. Jones in charge.

Wherever he is head of anything he will surely make it go. Stopped at Nowata, Okla. Some more of Brother Jones' children going on in the strength of the Lord, b u t with sorrow in their hearts because they did not want to give up their beloved pastor.

On to Tulsa. Now you all know who is at Tulsaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Elder J. W. Strasner.

He is alive and his children are the same. To Ft- Smith again. We find Elder 0 . T. Jones in charge and at home as he was living there at t h a t time. Stayed there five days. On the fifth of April, in teaching a lesson, I said this is my birthday; I am sixty-five years old today, and to my surprise Elder and Sister Jones asked me my whole name and when I was born, and on Tuesday after I t a u g h t the lesson the saints rendered one of the most beautiful programs about Mother I ever witnessed and game me a $25 toilet set, a cake with sixty-five pink candles on it. How I thanked the Lord for these sweet children who remembered me on my birthday.

J u s t like 0 . T. and, wife.

Went from Ft. Smith to Hot Springs. There twelve days. Elder J. Bowe in charge, with Elder Owens assistant. Hot Springs is alive and the saints are on the firing line.

Stopped a few days in Brinkley with my sister. As we were going to the station on our way to Memphis, Tenn., the sad news of Elder C. C. Frederick's death came to me.

Elder Frederick was one among the greatest in t h e Church of God in Christ; a man who made friends with every one; who never failed to tell the sinner of his sins, be he black or write, rich or poor; he never at any timetime gave Elder Mason one minute's trouble or failed to answer to every call of the church; he had one of t h e best charges in the united work, was liked in Pittsburgh, his home, by all who knew him. "Oh, God, give 77

us more pastors like him." Sleep on, Elder Frederick, we will meet you in the city of the "New Jerusalem."

We were so very sad on our trip to Memphis. There we found Elder S. T. Samuel in a great revival. Wre were distressed and grieved when we found t h a t we could not get a train in time to be in Pittsburgh to the funeral. J u s t a t this time Elder Samuel came in the room, went down on his knees asking God to comfort and lift the burden off our h e a r t s and ease our troubled minds. The Lord came in power and in the shadow of death the sunlight of God's countenance shone upon us. Amen.

From Memphis to Union City, Tenn., April 29th. State Convocation, the best one 1 ever met in the s t a t e of Tennessee. Elder McEwen, overseer; Elder G. A. Sparks, assistant; Mother Alice Clay and her co-workers as help-meets, carried the work over the top. Elders McEwen and Sparks cut off all the dead limb preachers who keep their names on the list and sit a t home doing nothing for the cause of Christ.

The meeting was beautiful in spirit and in t r u t h the business was transacted in a business way and the money above the expenses was put in the bank, not slothful in business, fervent in spirit serving the Lord.

Up to St. Louis, Mo., May 4th. Elder D. Bostic, overseer, was there with the Chief Apostle to lead the saints on to victory. Elder S. H. Jones was there conducting the healing services. Mother Bostic, with a host of gooo} women workers, following on to know more of the Lord.

Space will not permit me to give an itemized account of all the happenings of the meetings visited.

From St. Louis, Mo., to Lexington. On to Kansas City, Mo. Out to Denver, Colo., Oakland, San Francisco, Fresno, Los Angeles, Calif. Down to Phoenix, Ariz. Up to St. Paul and Minneapolis, Minn. Back to Omaha for five days. Down to Dallas, Tex., Oklahoma City, Okla. Topeka, Wichita, Kas. Kansas City, St. Louis, Mo., t o Mound City, 111. Henderson, Ky., up to Milwaukee, Wis. Chicago, 111., Detroit, Mich., Buffalo, N. Y. One night in Phalidelphia, Pa. On to Norfolk, Va. Back up to Washington, D. C. To Trenton, N. J. Stopped one night in Harrisburg to see sweet little Jessie Simon. On to Pittsburgh, Pa. To Cleveland, Ohio, Toledo.

Back to Detroit, Ypsilanti, Mich., Gary, Ind., Chicago, Decatur, 111., St. Louis, Mo. Home again for eleven days. Was called to Little Rock for the death of my brother, who was ninetytwo years old. Stopped at Brinkley, Ark. Rested here till the meeting of the most wonderful convocation t h a t we have ever had in the history of the Church of God in Christ.

P r a y on and move on; the time won't be long. P r a y for me t h a t I fight t h t fight of faith.

MOTHER L. ROBERSON.
