The Church’s Endangered Liberty
By Editor
WE hope that all our people will note carefully the following expressions from the reading by Sister White in our Religious Liberty Department in this week’s issue: “The time has come when the liberty of the church of Christ is endangered.” “The oppression of Christ’s church would apparently be a great victory for the side of the transgressors of the Sabbath, and would cause rejoicing among evil-doers.” “If the forces of the enemy gain the victory now, it will be because the churches have neglected their God-given work.” The last expression particularly is worthy of careful consideration. When there is opposition to measures of the kind now before Congress, there is always the danger that action on them will be deferred until the very last, when they will be called up and rushed through without consideration. Congress does not close until March 4, inauguration day. Let earnest prayers continue to ascend that evil may not be allowed thus to triumph.
