lowers into the outer darkness, beyond the ultimathule, where the combined illumination of one hundred and seventeen millions of glowing suns has never shot one cheering ray. After the din of battle has forever been hushed, and shouts of victory shall ríng through one billion and one hundred and seventy millions of glorious celestial worlds, the happy soul that shall have reached this seventh overcometh shall be honored with a seat on the throne, and a participation of the divine administration as the subordinate of the triumphant Christ, to reign with Him amid angels and redeemed spirits forever and ever. Ten thousand times ten thousand incentives inspire the immortal soul to run, strive, and fight for these seven victories. Seven is the perfect number designating Christ Himself. So don't stop with sanctification, for that is only victory number three; but be a loyal candidate for the seven. Oh, glory to God for the seven overcomeths!

REVELATION 22

"I am the root and offspring of David and the bright and morning star."

"And the spirit and the bride say come, and let him that heareth say come, and let him that is athirst come,

and whosoever will let him take the water of life freely."

NOTES BY COMPILER

Now, my friends, if you have read this little book I pray the Lord that many of the words have taken a strong hold of your heart and mind and may God help you to think and ponder over these things and get a higher and better idea of the Lord's plan of redemption, and you all have my prayers, that through this work the Holy Spirit will show you the way, and the right way to the King's highway of Holiness and if you do not find the way and you are still in doubt I beg of you to put Jesus Christ to a test; cut loose from all your little and big sins and come to Jesus and tell him, "Here I am, Lord; take me; I make a full surrender of everything; I will do what you want me to do and be what you want me to be," and trust the Lord to take you and use you anyway, and promise Him you will quit all your sinning and throw to the wind all things you have been holding to and do this in great earnestness and the Savior will come into your heart. Trust him wholly, the same as you would trust your own dear Mother. He will not ask you to do anything

you can't do any more than your Mother would. For he has said, “Although a mother at times her child would forget, yet will I remember you." This is just what I did and the Holy Spirit came into my heart and is guiding my life. J. J. MORGAN.

BOOK VI.

NOTES TAKEN FROM MINISTERS AND BIBLE

SCHOLARS.

The commencement of Book 6 is in part a corroboration of the five preceding books, although it produces new proof and more light on that Great Meeting in the Air.

The second part of this book is most wonderful. Read it all.

"For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God and the dead in Christ shall rise first. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we ever be with the

Lord.

Wherefore comfort one another with these

words." 1 Thes. 4:16-17-18.

This heavenly meeting mentioned here in the Scripture text will certainly be the most wonderful that humanity has ever heard of. All the meetings that the Bible tells about are not in comparison to the great meeting that will soon take place in the air. Since humanity started to live on this earth there have been some wonderful meetings. That was a wonderful meeting at the time of the flood when all the people of the entire antediluvian world collected and met on the hill tops and mountain tops and looked over that world of water coming higher and higher on the hills, with the whole world under water except a few mountains and higher hills; this was a most wonderful meeting.

That was a peculiar meeting Abraham had with Melchizedek, who was without father or mother, beginning of life or ending of days, a priest of the most high God. He was a personage or an inhabitant from a celestial world come down into this sinful world to see how poor humanity was really living in Satan's kingdom; then Abraham had another most wonderful meeting when the two angels met him in his tent door
