NEARING HOME.

MORE emphatically than ever before may we be able to say, “The night is far spent, the day is at hand.” The age of the kingdom can not be very far away. The many-sided and all-converging evidence forbid any other conclusion. That line, which is now like a haze upon the sea, will soon shape itself into the cliffs of the land of promise. We can almost see the ground-swell of the vessel now. The swallows are lighting upon our mast-head. The perfume of Lebanon and Gilead comes to us on the breeze from the land. We must be nearing home. Courage, then, brethren; let us keep our hearts filled with reverence to God; let us be ever loyal to His Christ. Let us keep to the doctrine, the fellowship, the breaking of bread and prayers. Let us hold fast the form of sound words, and contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints, and then we shall be able to stand through any and every evil day.—The Restitution.
