THE CALIFORNIA MISSION.
By J. S. Miller
While reading the notices of the California mission that have appeared in the Review for a few weeks past, my mind has often been directed to Rev. x. 11. “And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again, before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.” There is perhaps no other spot on this earth where all people, and nations, and tongues, are so completely represented as in California. As it was at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost, so it may be said of the State of California. They are there gathered together from every nation under heaven. When God's people shall be ripe for the pouring out of his Spirit, and the sounding of the loud cry, how natural it will be for those who have received the message in California to return to their respective nations, and there proclaim the solemn warning of the third angel. What importance then surrounds the California mission. Let us not forget to pray for the success of our California mission.
