What a glorious season for the Church of Christ in the midst of the world is Lent! During the six weeks prior to Easter she fittingly commemorates the suffering and death of her Saviour. And how significant is this phase of the revelation of our Lord! To its significance attests the very fact of its […]
In a recent issue of Beacon Lights we discussed the “uncertainty of the times” and its implications and effects upon the decisions of our young people, especially insofar as service in our armed forces creates problems in regard to the choosing of a life vocation and marriage. We expressed the thought at that time that […]
Again this was news in our papers. Although it was reported last month in our newspapers, I thought it of such significance that we can devote space to it in our Current Comments. This time anti-semitic propaganda and persecution broke out in Russia. That there was persecution and mass-murders in Russia is not a new […]
The dark councils of Communism’s secret controlling powers (that is the devil and his “sacred cow” Freemasonry) in bringing the “falling away” (II Thess. 2:3) are fivefold.
