"WATCHMAN, WHAT OF THE NIGHT?"
By Editor
THE glorious response to this question is, "The morning cometh, and also the night." The morning of that eternal day when the Son of God will begin His reign of righteousness and peace is almost here. The night of eternal destruction to all that is vile and sinful is also right at hand. Therefore the watchman can say, "The morning cometh, and also the night." For those who accept the salvation of Christ all the joys and realities of eternity are about to become a literal realization. For those who cling to the wrong, the midnight of eternal death is soon to be their portion. These thoughts should inspire every one of us with an intense zeal. We should be consumed with the thought, What can I do to warn those who are on the brink of eternal destruction, and to draw them into the refuge the Lord has prepared? The publishers of this paper are seeking to present these great themes every week, with the constant hope and prayer that souls may be reached. Has your own soul been stirred by the matter contained in this paper? Then will you not do all that you can to pass it on to others? Perhaps you have neighbors or friends that would be glad to learn the truths that its columns contain. Have you carefully and prayerfully done all that you can to bring it before them? We should keep these matters before our minds all the time, and never lose an opportunity to lead men to the knowledge of the fact that Jesus is seeking to save sinful men, and that He is about to come in the clouds of heaven to bestow His eternal rewards upon all who will receive Him. The World's Outlook number of the SIGNS OF THE TIMES will be especially helpful in showing how all the perplexing and distressing things in the world to-day are fulfilling prophecy. These things that are filling men's minds with perplexity and their hearts with fear are caused by the last supreme efforts of Satan to destroy as many as possible. Be on the outlook for this special number. Join in its circulation, and thus you may be a means in the hands of God of saving some souls from the midnight of eternal destruction. T.
