A Christ the National Reformers Accept
By Editor
The Hebrew Journal, speaking of the first advent of Christ, says:— "The Jews of that time, full of the conceit of their own goodness, and contempt for the Gentiles' wickedness, expecting, too, a warrior Saviour, rejected him; but what if he came now, when we can appreciate, understand, and rightly value all the sweetness, usefulness, nobility, and elevation of his teachings?" Yes, what if he should? Why, they would accept him, of course. No, indeed they would not, if he should come in the same way that he came eighteen hundred years ago. But the National Reformers are planning for a coming of Christ such as they will accept. They are going to have him come just as the ancient Jews wanted him to come, and it will involve no self-denial to accept him. Indeed, all the self-denial that will be called for will be on the part of those who refuse to enroll themselves in the National Reform kingdom.
