THE KING’S SPEECH
TO THE EDITOE OF THE PRESS. Sir,—Mr Trolove has drawn our attention to the King’s speech, which is worthy of our admiration! I would also say, if his Majesty should deem it necessary to speak to the world in Esperanto it would be quite a simple matter for him; and we who could not, or do not, understand that language, would still “honour him.” for that is the duty of every true Christian, it being a commandment of the King of Kings. The speech of the King of Kings, Mr Trolove has also referred to. but I notice he does not understand the language, which is translated only to faith—the faith which cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. The “shout”—“the voice of the archangel”—“the trump of God.” every true Christian will hear in his own tongue: and we shall be “caught up” to meet the Lord in the air. What a gathering that will be! Then we shall be taken to the Father’s house where there are many mansions. Is Mr Trovole coming with us? He must hurry and make up his mind; the door will soon be shut. , Then comes the strong delusion for those who received not the love of the truth that they might be saved. Damned! will be their portion; this is the speech of the King of Kings.— Vcrurs. etc., EGLON SEECOMBE. March 5, 1936.
