Our King and Our Commission
By W. A. S.
Just at this year-end we have had, as never before, a demonstration of the truth of the quotation from “Testimony,” Vol. VIII, which appears on the annual-offering envelopes:— “From every country is heard the cry, “Come over and help us!” Rich and poor, high and low, are calling for light. The situation itself is an appeal that can never be put into words. The old king of France led his men-at-arms into battle, saying simply, “Gentlemen, I am your king; and,” pointing toward the front, “there is the enemy.” It was all he needed to say. To-day, while the finger of God’s providence points the way, and the cry from all the world rings in our ears, the Lord Jesus says to us, “I am your King; there, before you, is the work to be done.” Let us do it.
