The Herald Of The Cross N S Volume 3 PDF Download

Excerpt from Herald of the Cross, 1907, Vol. 3 The day has also come when those who have made their dwelling amid the graves of the City of Jerusalem, should again hear the Voice of the Divine, and come forth unto newness of Life. They must hear His voice break upon their ears whom they knew as the Redeemer, even as of one who has been sent forth to purify the House of Levi. They must learn that the Divine Love knows them all by name, and calls them by it. They must learn that, when He calls, they should make ready to enter into the King dom. They must learn that to refuse to enter that Kingdom will mean for them to choose to remain as one of the dwellers amid the graves. They must assuredly know that to so remain amid these graves, is to choose the path whose ending is death to the Soul. They must learn from their own sad history which we are about to restore unto them, What Spiritual Death means. They have known the meaning of Divine Life, and so have often sought during the long ages of their captivity, to find it again. They have known the meaning of oppression at the hands of both the Egyptian and the Assyrian - the body with its passions, and the mind of that body with its false ambitions. They have long mourned in captivity because they were unable to find the life they sought. They have for ages and ages been languishing for those Streams of Life which they once knew, and that Bread of Life which was once their strength. They have many a time cried out.for both bread and water for their Soul, when they were dwellers amid the arid land of the desert. They have many a time yearned and even cried out for the Redeemer to come and deliver them from their sad estate. They have often looked for that Redeemer amid the false lights kindled from the kingdom of the enemy. They have often mistaken these lights for the true signs of the coming of the Redeemer, and, through following them, have again been deceived. They have many a time been ensnared by these false lights, into the same conditions as those from which they sought to escape. They have frequently followed mere mirages, until they have found themselves even amid the streams of Babylon. They have often been held in bondage by these streams, until their very Soul languished in unspeakable sorrow. They have thus Spent the long ages of their captivity.
