SEVENTH DAY ADVENTISTS.

Continuing th© them© of the previous address at the Seventh Day Adventist Church, Hastings, when the speaker proffered as a striking evidence of the soon coming of Christ, th© progress in the scientific world, last evening, the subject was one of all absorbing interest to every Christian. “The return of Christ as an event,” he said, “has been the hope of all the ages. Adam looked forward to it. Enoch the seventh from Adam prophesied concerning it. Abraham became the father of the, faithful, because his faith entered upon the promised Redeemer. The historical records of His first advent furnish us with evidence of the reality of His coming. As further proof of the physical nature of this wonderful event, the speaker quoted from 1 Thess. 4-16-17 and also from 1 Corinthians 15-51-52, where is contained the word picture of the ’resurrection. This, he said, was the blessed “hope of the Church,” loved ones meeting, never to part'again. The piercing shout of the “voice of the Archangel,” echoing and re-echoing through the world will command the attention of “every eye” and gazing upon the glorious sight all will acknowledge that this same Jesus who hung on Golgotha, is “King and Kings and Lord of Lords.”
