Show IT SHALL NOT IT CANNOT BE AGAIN! First Streaks of Rainbow Promise Coming to View Let the valleys of the world begin to sing ; let the mountains moun-tains start shouting for joy, and let the people lift their eyes to see the first streaks of the rainbow promise that war shall not come again after the present struggle is over. Dimly we behold the first faint gleams of universal and everlasting peace. If only the powers that be would invite the right Man to their conferences. The magazine Destiny asks the question: "Must the present boys five and six face another war worse than the present one?" And then it answers its own question somewhat as follows: "No! They shall not! They are not being raised for cannon fodder." The truth is that this generation is to finish this war and mop up the aftermath. And this generation shall not pass until the prophesies of Jesus and others have come to pass. Noah warned the people to repent and preached 120 years. Then came the deluge. Now another 120 years of warning and preaching have passed and for not listening humanity is reaping the whirlwind. We mourn for those "Who see the world's great anguish and its wrong, and dare n6t speak." The vision of the prophets rises over all the checkered and blood-stained years of nearly thirty centuries with the promise that wars shall cease, and that men shall no longer hurt or destroy, that peace shall envelop the earth, that man shall be lifted up to the high stature God intended. - |
