LOST SOULS

I saw the sun as it rose above the horizon
Chasing away the shadows of the forests
I saw the earth harmonise with the glories of
The heavens, and present to my eyes the riches of
Her vegetation, with the magnificence of her fields
And the brightness of her waters
I inhaled the enchanting odour of her perfumed
Plants                                                                      
I heard the charming melody of the birds, that
She nourishes in giving to each one its fitting
Pasture
And, in presence of this loveliness I exclaimed;
Lord, Lord, Thou art grand in Thy works, and
Infinite is Thy power
The last words of this hymn of thankfulness
And of love were still resounding, when, low my
Soul was suddenly wrapped in profound sadness.
0, my divine Master! Thou who knows all
Things, Thou dost know wherefore I am sad.
Thou knows why the splendours of nature

Have greeted mine eyes -without bringing to my
Heart peace or true joy
Thou knows that my soul, inspired with enthusiasm in the presence of the harmonies of this
Visible universe, has sought for other harmonies
But that seeking for them in vain, her song of
Joyfulness has been hushed, and sadness has come
Over her

THE END OF THE WORLD

                  The Real Prophecy

 

A Few Great Facts
We desire, in the beginning of the discussions to follow, to call attention to a few great facts, the first of which is, that this universe did not come into existence by accident, and is not governed by chance God created all things, and placed the
Whole under law and His supreme will reigns over all.                                                          
HE HAS A DEFINITE PROGRAM for
The direction and control of all affairs upon this planet He cannot be hurried, and He cannot be retarded or diverted from His Program; nothing is done by chance in the administration of His Kingdom,
But all things move with beautiful order and harmony, and the great events of history come to pass at their appointed time.
Few subjects of study can be more entertaining and profitable to the devout mind, than to search the Scriptures in order to
Find out just where we are in the Divine program of the history of our world.
