and clearly. “The Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that
heareth say, Come.”
Revelation 22:17
. We are to make no delay in
giving instruction to those who need it, that they may be brought to a
knowledge of the truth as it is in Jesus.—

Watchmen and Messengers—The time has come when a large
work should be done by the canvassers. The world is asleep, and
as watchmen they are to ring the warning bell to awake the sleepers
to their danger. The churches know not the time of their visitation.
Often they can best learn the truth through the efforts of the canvasser.
Those who go forth in the name of the Lord are His messengers to
give to the multitudes who are in darkness and error the glad tidings
of salvation through Christ in obeying the law of God.—

Seeing Souls Converted—Let canvassers go forth with the word
of the Lord, remembering that those who obey the commandments and

there will be opportunity for the canvasser to work. When the religious
denominations unite with the papacy to oppress God’s people, places
where there is religious freedom will be opened by evangelistic can-

do as Christ has directed. “When they persecute you in this city, flee ye
into another.” If persecution comes there, go to still another place. God
will lead His people, making them a blessing in many places. Were
it not for persecution they would not be so widely scattered abroad
to proclaim the truth. And Christ declares: “Ye shall not have gone
over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.”
Matthew 10:23
.
Until in heaven is spoken the word, “It is finished,” there will always
be places for labor, and hearts to receive the message.—

There is a great work to be done, and every effort possible must be
made to reveal Christ as the sin-pardoning Saviour, Christ as the Sin
Bearer, Christ as the bright and morning Star; and the Lord will give
us favor before the world until our work is done.—
