The December issue of the Watchman will indeed bring tidings of good cheer to those who are looking and longing for the coming of our Lord. The cover page represents his coming, accompanied by all the grandeur of the innumerable host. In striking contrast, Satan will be depicted as contemplating his horrible work of destruction during the long period when the earth is laid waste. The editor will write on “The Two Rival Kingdoms,” endeavoring to show the conclusion of the great controversy that has been going on for the past six thousand years.
THE MORNING COMETH
“The First Advent of Christ Compared With the Second” will be an article of great interest in view of the present-day failure to recognize the signs of the times, which plainly indicate the second coming of Christ.
In view of the present serious disturbances in Europe, the article “What Is Armageddon?” will be very timely. The nations of earth were never more emphatic in their protestations of peaceful intentions nor more diligent in preparation for the great struggle that seems imminent on the political horizon of Europe. We believe this article should be given wide publicity, and we shall be glad for the hearty cooperation of all our people, as this is a subject in which the whole world is interested, yet few know the real outcome involved.
“The Ten Commandments and the Twentieth Century,” by Prof. B. G. Wilkinson. This writer will show the destructive trend of modern times in invalidating the force of the ten commandments.
“God’s Eternal Purpose” (continued), by H. C. Hartwell. Those who read the first instalment in last month’s issue will be glad to read what the writer has to say further on this subject.
J. S. Washburn will continue his series on “The Unpardonable Sin.”
The daily newspapers are full of war and23rumors of war. Turkey continues to be the irritating element in the political game of Europe. That power is inextricably involved in the Eastern question, and we believe that only the humble student of prophecy can know the logical outcome of the disturbances that arise from this question from time to time. In view of this situation, Prof. P. T. Magan’s December article on the “Congress of Berlin” will be of vital interest.
Altogether, the December Watchman presents a strong array of articles of deep interest to all.
