The prophet atood In the gate of the
temple In order that the multitudes
might hear him. The occasion was
the coming together of the people
from all over the country to attend
gome feast
I. What God Requlrea (vy. 1-7).
1. Amend your wuya (v. 3).
Their general course of living
Bhould he reformed, bad deeds giving
place to good ones. On the basis of
this change. Ood would permit them
Ito remain In their city and country.
Failure to do tbla would eventuate In
their expulalon.
2. The folly of trusting In religion*
forms (▼. 4).
The people regarded the temple as
• charm against evil, Irrespective of
the condition of their hearts. Without
ft heart experience, the moat sacred
Institutions and ordinances are vaiue-
-ileas * - %... * _
. 8. Social Justice (t. fi). *’ *• 3*-
f The proof of their having reformed
.Waa the execution of Judgment be
tween man and his neighbor. The
(proof of one’s being in touch with
,God is hia fuir dealing with his fel-
lowmen.
4. Not to oppress the helpless (t. fl).
The stranger would likely be ig
norant of the laws of the land. The
wldowa and orphans could easily he
imposed upon. Protection for the
weak Is a requirement of godliness.
6. Not walk after other gods (▼. 6).
Worship of Idols and conformity to
heathen customs go hand In hand.
True morality Is determined by the at-
jtltude of the Individual toward God.
II. Solamn Warnings (vv. 8-15).
1. Teaching of false prophets (vv.
8-11).
These prophets taught the people
r that attention to ceremony, and ob
servance of religious forms, exempted
them from strict attention to morals.
jTbose tlho heeded the words of the
ilylng prophets were not slow to steal,
! murder. commit adultery, swear false
ly and practice Idolatry. They would
•ven come Into the Lord’s house and
^lalm freedom to practice such abom
Inatlons. The sacred temple itself,
filled with such worshipers would be
't den of robbers.
2. Warning of Shiloh (w. 12-15).
God caused His tabernacle to be set
in Shiloh, but in Eli’s time He gave
: !t Into the hands of the Philistines be
cause of the idolatry of the people.
l (Psa. 78:56-00). Even so would He
do with the temple, the city and the
’Whole country. This He had already
tdone with Ephraim, the northern king-
•dom.
II. Tha Hopeless Condition of the
People (vv. 10-20). .
Their propensity to do evil was so
; ltrong that all efforts at reclamation
were futile.
1. Pray not for them (v. 16).
There is such a thing as* sinning
•Unto death, In which case prayer Is
fuseless (I John 5:16).
2 Entire families devoted thelr’en-
srgles to that which provoked God’s
'anger (vv. 17-10). r >
This was done by young and old-
linen and women. This they did to
provoke God’s anger. He assures them
the outcome of such conduct would
foe their utter confusion.
IV. Judgment to Fall (v. 20).
Because the people poured out their
Merlnga to Idols, the furious anger
knd wrath of God would be poured
upon man, beast, tree, and tbe
t of the ground. How this has
fulfilled, tbe history of the Jews
B dear.
V. Obedience Better Than Sacrifice

Son of Vet Enjoyed
“War Reminiscences"
Fifteen-year Old Lad Asks That Other
Wearers of (he Grey Tell cf
Their Experiences;
Olar* S. C., May 13.—Mr. Editor: I
enjoyed very much reading the ar
ticle published in your paper of May
2nd, “War Reminiscences,” by Mr. H.
W. Jones, who is my father’s old
friend ard war comrade, and noting
what he ha s to say about the part C 10 *
H, 17th Regiment, took in the battle
of the mine at Petersburg, I wish to
say it was my father (the late Capt.
W. T. Cave) who made the remark
that Mr. Jdnes refers to: “Give it to
them, boys—they have, wounded our
General,” bo which General Elliott
relied, “Never mind me, boys; do your
duty.” Father said that admonition
of General Elliott had been an inspira
tion to him through life to be faith
ful to every trust, not only in war but
m peace as well.
I remember very little of father, he
having died when I was three years
old. Mother tells me about the things
of which she has heard him talk, and
this incident wa* ore of them. I wish
Mr. Jones and other Wearer** of the
Grey would tell us more of their ex
periences in this great struggle. I
mean the things we do not get from
history books. We, as sor.a of Vet
erans, want t° know more of what our
own fathers did in battle. I am now
15 ye«rs old and if there is a younger
boy in the cpurty who is the son of a
Confederate soldier I would like to
hear from him.
J. Mu rice Cave.

followed disobedience. On the condl
tlon of obedience to His requirements,
God promised to own them as His peo
ple and to bless them.
Confidence in Prayer
And this Is the confidence that we
have in Him, that, if we ask anything
according to His will. He hearetb us;
and if we know that He beareth us,
whatsoever we ask, we know that we
have tbe petitions that we desired of
Him.—I John 6:14. 15.
No Discharge in That War
There is no man that bath power
over the spirit to retain tbe spirit;
neither hath be power in the day of
death; and there la no discharge in
that war; neither shall wickedness
deliver those that are given to It—
Ecclesiastes 8:8.
A Neglectod Biblo
A neglected Bible means a starved
and strengthless spirit, a comfortless
heart, a barren life, and a grieved
Holy Ghost—F. B. Meyer.
