The Valley of Decision and the Closing Day

Solemn as is the thought, every day brings this eventful time nearer. A few more suns will set, and our Advocate will lay down the censer. The great voice from Heaven will say, It is done, and Mercy will hide her face forever. Soon we shall reach
“The hidden boundary between God's patience and his wrath.”
Many are undecided. They are asking themselves the questions,—
“How long may we go on in sin? How long will God forbear? Where does hope end, and where begin The confines of despair?”
God has said that there shall be multitudes in the valley of decision when the day of the Lord is near, and we find his word verified to-day. The saints will soon receive their crowns; but alas for those who are weighed in the balance, and found wanting! L. D. SANTEE.
