A heedless Iife vele not be a Christian life. Watch and pray. Our dependence upon Gr'od is constant, and therefore our prayers should be constant. For ye know not when the time is. Every day brings the Lord's second coming one day nearer. It is as when a man, sojourn- ing in another country. As our Lord sojourned 'on this earth, Having left his house. As Christ was soon to leave the house of his flesh. And 1 is sac ing increased his influence and their fear and hatred of him. So the San- hedrin crouched like a tiger ready to spring.
