JESUS IS GOD'S GIFT
TO ALL HUMANITY
Saltation Is of God's Low, Hot
of Justice or Necessity.
Misunderstanding of What Constitutes
the Divine Penalty For Sin Has Mis
led Us In Respect to Every Feature
of God's Program For Our Recovery
From the Penalty.
I PASTOR. KU5SEL1.1
Rochester, N. I,
NOT. 24. Pastor
Russell of Brook
lyn is here. We re
port one of his ad
dresses from the
text, "Thanks be
unto God for His
unspeakable Gift."
—II Corinthians
ix, 15.
The Pastor said
that in order to
appreciate the
Scriptures on all
subjects, we must handle the Word of
God honestly. We must recognize that
our Lord Jesus is one person and the
Father another person. The oneness
between the Father and the Son is tliiit
declared by our Master EJimself, say
ing that H[e and the Father are one
in the same sense that He desires ail
of His disciples to be one—in mind. In
purpose, in will, in effort (John xvii,
21, 23.) Our Lord Jesus is God's un
speakable Gift
The Scriptures declare that the lle
deeiner took the nature of men, in or
der to redeem sinners but that in Him
there was no sin. Only a sinless one
could give to God a Ransom for Adam,
and thus redeem from destruction, not
only Adam, but all bis posterity, In
volved in sin and death through him.
The speaker theh showed that God
set before our Lord a great joy, the
influence of which led Jesus to_endure
cheerfuliy the bitter experiences of His
earthly life. This joy is intimated to
have been: (1) His pleasure In doing
the Father's will (2) His privilege of
"bringing many sons to glory"—the
Ghnrch (8) His pleasure and joy in be
ing by and by the world's Resto£$r, de
livering them from the power of Satan,
sin and death. "Wherefore," St Paul
says, "God hath highly exalted Him,"
far above "angels, -principalities and
powers, and every name that is named."
An Opposite Course From Satan's,
Pastor Russell then contrasted the
course pursued by Satan with that fol
lowed by our Lord. Meditating am
bitious designs, Satan found an oppor
tunity in Eden. He beheld in our first
parents a new order of beings, design
ed to biing into existence a race that
would fill the earth. Satan essayed to
be ruler or prince over this human cre
ation and by so doing, he not only.-,be
came a rebel against God, but brought
sin and death into the world.
Our Lord Jesus pursued an opposite
course, and demonstrated His loyalty
and obedience. St Paul intimates that
although the Logos was much higher
than was Lucifer, yet He was humble,
and "meditated not a usurpation," as
the Greek text declares. (Phil.. 11,
G.) He thought not by robbery to be
equal with God. On the contrary, our
Lord willingly accepted the Divine pro
posal that He should be humbled tot the
human plane for a time, in order to
carry out the Father's Plan.
To the Church, Jesus is God's un
speakable Gift He is indeed a Gift
to the whole world, unspeakable, in
value, but He is more to the Church
than to the world. To His footstep
followers. He is the "Captain of their
Salvation," their Bridegroom, their
"Elder Brother," their great High
I'riest Through film they are priv
ileged to be the Royal Priesthood.
Through the merit of the eacrifice of
Christ they are privileged to "present
their bodies living sacrifices, holy, ac
ceptable unto God."
The Pastor then said that Justice is
th« foundation of God's Throne In
the past endeavors to harmonize Jus
tice with onr great Creator's dealings
with humanity have involved us In
difficulty. We were assured by the
prominent creeds that God had know
ingly brought mankind into existence
under such condition* thai the great
majority would spend eternity in tor
ture. We perceived no Justice in any
such arrangement. But while desist
ing from criticising the Creator, we
could not Indorse snch a course, nor
see it to be in harmony with the Di
vine regulations governing ourselves.
If we are to love onr enemies, should
more be expected of fallen human be
ings than of our perfect Creator?
The Scriptures deehire enly the con
secrated Church see the "lengths,
breadths, betgbts and depths of the
Love of God." which passeth under
standing. This class alone is in any
Sense prepared to give thanhs to God
now for His unspeakable Gift. Their
.hanks go up. not only In words, but
also in actions, which "speak louder
than words." These thanks ascend as
sweet lncenfe to God.
By and by, "All the blind eyes will
be opened awl all the deaf ears will 'be
unstopped." Then the whole world of
mankind, including those qwakened
from the sleep of death during Mes
siah's reign, will tie in condition to rec
ognize God's unspeakable Gift and ren
der thanks. When wilful evil doers
shall have been destroyed, then ever?'
creature In Henven, on earth and In
the sea shall be heard saying. "Praise,
glory, honor, dominion and might be
unto Him that sltteth on the Throne,
and to the Lamb, forever," through the
onspeakable Gift.

In the Days of

&
when the Indiana kept
the cavalry on the jump,
a stage journey over
the plains was taking
an even chance with
death.
But Major McDon
ald's daughter Molly,
coming out from the
East to Fort Devere,
thought the trip rather
good fun until a band
of Comanches closed in
on the coach.
If it hadn't been for
Sergeant "Brick" Ha,mlin

and an Indian fighter un
der Custer brave little
Molly would never have—

We have secured the agency of the celebrated
Ms
made at Mankato, Minnesota? This flour is known to
be the best flour that it is possible to make out of
wheat, and for the purpose of demonstrating to you
its superior qualities, you are all invited to our store
Saturday, November 30th
to see bread made from it. and its superior flavor to
other flour, so alj in and get a sandwich and a good
warm cup of coffee.
Mother Earth will have to produce better wheat
than it has ever done in the past before any mill can
make better flour than ARDEE.
pi ARDEE is made from selected spring wheat and
no other, washed with deep artesian well water, and
is milled in one of the most sanitary mills in the
world, where every precaution is taken to make flour
that is clean, sanitary and pure. ARDEE is a spec
ial short patent made from the choicest parts of the
kernels of wheat, taking by fai more wheat to make
a barrel of flour than it requires for the ordinary pa
tent flour. v- V'
"5*
We want you to try a sack of this flour. You are
not taking the slightest chance in so doing as ARDEE
carries the strongest guarantee that it is possible to
put on a choice spring wheat flour. Give this flour a
thorough test, using more water to the same amount
of flour than ordinary. Use as much of the flour out
of the sack as you want to and if you don't find it
the best sack of flour that you have ever used, return
the balance to E. D. Cotton and get your money, and
it will not cost you one cent. All we ask of you is to
be fair with us in this matter. There will be two
representatives from the mill during this demonstra
tion, who will be able to show to you the superior
qualities of this flour. Come in and see us whether
you buy anything or not.
Another demonstrator will exhibit Heinz' products
on the same date,

The demonstration will take place in the basement.
