Echoes trom West Street LIGHT ON THE SECOND ADVENT. 0 No one truth of the Word of Goil can be quired, or further knowledge be. obtained from it, without all other tratha being affected thereby. "This is m fact verified in the experi- nce of every studious believer. Bible truths react upon each ther to throw inia clearer ‘ision the whole counsel of God. As the matter of dispensational teaching becomes clearer, it “follows that the truths already acquired stand font more strikingly. ‘A testimony to the verity of these remarks ean be found in the consideration of the Serip ture presentation of the Second Advent of Christ. ‘That doctsine ie an oft-told theme in the pages of this magazine, yet it may be that 1 fe presen OF ty be elcome Tt is possible that a mental predilietion muy lead 4o the astertion that this or that truth is ff prime importance, but i can be surely raid that the doctrine of the Seoond Advert is & Irey truth, for it is that which gives poteney to every other truth. There is not a promise ‘which God has made to men, not a blessing ‘hich is to come thzeugh Divine favour, but is dependent upon the advent of the Lord to ttve it reality. Without the Advent the Dless- jngs of the future are not brought nigh. Tf that is sownd position, it is quite certain that the doctrine of the Second Advent is of prime Importance to the believer. ‘The Bible centres all ite blessings to man kind in a Person, Tip is a feature which dit. ferentiates the Bible from all-otaer books of ‘moral of philosophic kind. To that Person tal are to look, and upon Him all future good to mankind depends. But this ean bo prosed farther, and the ascertion made that it is to is Advent that all must look; that, from the first, lis presence on the earth, amongst men, fas the means of bringing the promised bless- ings ia contemplated. Tk is to this earth— the scene of the Fall and human ruin—that the Seed of the women must come in. order that there may be « reversal of the evil then introduced. Tt js to thie earth, and to a defi- nite geographical centre, that the Seed. of Abrabam must come in order that all families at the earth should be blessol.
