LOOK OUT!

By G. W. A.

BROTHER, sister, look out! We are yet in the territory of the Devil, and his emissaries, faithful to their trust, are on the alert for God's people. It is far more easy to raise a flock of sheep in a district infested by wolves, than to live out God's truth in these days. The people of God are in perilous moments. Like the sailor on shipboard, we may expect all sorts of weather. But we must look out. It is no time to seek a quiet position. "All hands on deck," is the order of the heavenly Captain. And now is the time to exercise wisdom and prudence. We want all that God has naturally given, and all that we can get from heaven. We must be careful—unite the wisdom of the serpent with the harmlessness of the dove. Let us be careful that the Devil don't get the vantage ground. Our influence, oh, how it tells. Let us all now try to throw our whole weight on the right side of the scale.
