Th is period is big with events; fraught with history, it repeats the past and portends the future.
are type and shadow of this hour The scriptural metaphors of The woman in travailRev 12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: Rev 12:2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. ; The great red dragon that stood ready to devour the child as soon as it was bornRev 12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. Rev 12:4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. ; and the husbandmen that said "this is the heir, come let us kill him, that the inheritance may be oursLuke 20:13 Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they see him. Luke 20:14 But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours. ."
A mother's love touches the heart of God, and should it not appeal to human sympathy? Can a Mother tell her child one tithe of the agonies that gave her birth? Can this child conceive of that anguish until she is a mother.
Do the children of this period dream of the spiritual mother's sore travail through the long night that has opened their eyes to the light of Christian Science? Cherish these new-born children, that filial obedience to which the Decalogue points with promise of prosperity? Should not the loving warning, the far-seeing wisdom, the gentle entreaty, or stern rebuke, have been heeded in return for all that love which brooded tireless over their tender years? The love that hath fed them with Truth, even the bread that cometh down from heaven, as the mother bird tendeth her young in the rock-ribbed rest of the Raven's callow brood.
And what of the hope of that parent whose children rise up against her, and brother slays brother,, and the strength of union grows weak with wickedness. The mad ambition that saith "this is the heir, come, let us kill her, that the inheritance may be ours ," goes forth to clamor with midnight As Written: midnigth and the tempest.
Animal Magnetism, the great red dragon of this hour, is taking away a third part of the stars from our spiritual heavens and casting them to the earthRev 12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. Rev 12:4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. . This is not ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science. It is the mortal "Mind-Cure", mental healing on a material basis, hurling its healing at random, poisoning with hate its deluded victims, or resting in silly peace upon the laurels of headlong human will. "What will therefore the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy these husbandmen and will give the vineyard unto others.Luke 20:15 So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them? Luke 20:16 He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid. "
