Hunting for Souls

By F. H. HENDERSON

F. H. HENDERSON
The Lord uses the figure found in Jer. 16:16 to show the earnest and careful search necessary to hunt out the honest souls who are scattered in different parts of the world. In another scripture he says: “Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out. As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day: and I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land.”
God’s arsenal for the gospel hunter has an inexhaustible supply of ammunition. “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.” Every Seventh-day Adventist, if he loves to go gospel hunting, will not fail to take a liberal supply of ammunition. This may be found in our missionary literature.
“The end is near, stealing upon us stealthily, imperceptibly, like the noiseless approach of a thief in the night. May the Lord grant that we shall no longer sleep as do others, but that we shall watch and be sober. The truth is soon to triumph gloriously, and all who now choose to be laborers together with God will triumph with it. The time is short, the night soon cometh when no man can work. Let those who are rejoicing in the light of present truth, now make haste to impart the truth to others.” The Captain of our salvation is soon to appear in power and great glory. May God help us to do our best.
