J .J IBP WBLESTODIESA GOD READY TO PARDON 0 Hosea 14?June 4 "For thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, tlotc to anger."?Keh. 9:f7. CODAY'S study Is an exhortation by the Prophet Hosea to Israel. at that time distinct from Judah; but It is applicable to our own nation as well as to every nation. Israel had become de- j baucbed through Idolatry. Intermar- * riage with the royalty of heathen nations had introduced the idolatries of heathen religions and the sensualities which constituted their attractive fea- J tures to the people. With the sensu ality came a lack of moral sense?a general numbness of conscience respecting Impurities. The record indicates that Hosea's own wife was an adulteress, a debauchee, who finally left her husband and her false offspring. Later the Prophet took her back under his own roof, but not as ; his wife. He was compassionate toward her and her offspring. "Return Unto the Lord" # No doubt the Prophet's own experiences had much to do with awakening him to a realization of the deplorable state of his own peo- A pie. When the Bf - - , Lord came upon jStiL him in prophecy, he could the better from b 1 own experiences enter into sym p a t b y with ? ?y _ them. from idolatry. The Israelites r ^ were fatherless In the sense that they [ had denied the Heavenly Father, ( the Creator, and bad become children j of the Adversary; even as Jesus said ? to some. "Ye are of your father the Devil, for bis works ye do." ) In their repentance. In their return to God, they were not only to abandon f false hopes and false worship and In- l lqulty. bat they were to take with them c words, and say onto the Lord, "Take g away our tnlqnlty and receive ns gra- j dously. that we may render unto Thee \ the fruit of our lips?our praise." Then follows a prophecy which has not yet been fulfilled, but will, we be- . lleve, soon be realised. It tells of the f turning away of God's anger, of His 1 blessing upon Israel. It will have ful- ? filment when Messiah begins His reign. I "Receive Us Graciously" Be It noted that the people of Israel to this day have not accepted the Lord's terms as stated by the Prophet They have not asked to be received by grace v ?graciously. j How God can be just and yet clear us ? was not made known in Hosea's day, but Is now clearly set forth as the very I essence of the "good tidings" of God's I love God himself has provided in Je- 1 bus this, the Ransom sacrifice, neces- i sary to the satisfaction of Divine Jus- < tlee, so that God can be both just and < merciful, although these terms are an- ] tagonistlc. j In order to bare a clear under*tana- ( lng of God's merciful provision It is necessary, first that the transgressor shall come to a realization of bis own 1 needs?that be shall crave a recognition J by the Creator and a share In His mer- t cy and loving provisions. 8uch aban- j donlng of sin to the extent of ability { will be assisted of the Lord In connection with the exercise of faith In Him, which will bring rest and peace of soul and- a realization that Divine mercy ( win matrA wwl all unintentional blem- .

The Hague. The word "The" in the name rhe Hague, the capital of the Nethiilamds, is simply the anglicized 4 ,'orm of the Dutch word "S Gravenlaaz," or S Gravenhaze," either of vhich in the Dutch language means i 'the count's hedge" or "the count's I pove" or "woods."

We hope the friends of The Record, when they come to town to do J their trading,will patronize the business houses that advertise in this '( paper. Remember that without these liberal merchants, bankers and other enterprising business men, the price of subscription would be at least $3 a year for such a paper as The Record. You'll find, as a rule, that the men who advertise are wide-awake and on the alert and can give you better bargains than those who do not advertise. This applies not only to Kingstree, but many live and upto-date business men of Lake City, Scran ton and Greelyville recognize the pulling power of an ad in The Record. tf ?V IllVWIinilWh WVI| H EEN, Prop.
