Among The Cobras See the King's Son let Him self down into the pit among the Cobras and vipers to rescue Little Rags, the child of tho drunken sot ihe , sot who stoned the King's carriage and muddied the front door of the palace. . ; Why the King's Son? Because of all who breathe. He alone is viper-proof. The venom could not enter His blood stream. And why rescue such a frail sickly outcast aa Little Rags? It is because tha King loved every subject in the realm, even to Little Rags and would see them, every one, made fit and clothed in royal robes. And who are the King,- - the Prince and Little Rags? In this picture, God is the King; Christ the Prince and .Little Rags stands for you and me and all who have ever sinned. Now turn to the Bible and learn what goes on behind the scenes. The Book shows us. aa made over and becomes one of a new race dwelling here for a time and over in the glory land forever. Heaven has a new photo of you. It shows your sins lifted off and put on An other, for "The Lord hatb, laid on Him on Christ' the iniquity of us all." Call the roll. Murderers, thievea liars, unclean, crooks, vicious, all of us who have sinned stand cleared with not the scratch of a pen against us. One by one, mankind all changed over, so far a3 they will have it so. The redeemed of the Lord. are under orders to go out as ambassadors and shout to all mankind to face about and sec God as the Great Lover. Face about, look his way; see how he has done all he can to prove his love to whoever has defied his right to rule their lives. He hat taken away all your guilt, and stands waiting to breathe him self into your soul and by that create you anew. So sure as you go on facing away from the light, the door must at the end close against you. Out there you are forever, with the weeping and the wail ing and the anguish. Do you take clearance on. tha ground that Christ paid the debt for- your sins? You wish no more to serve the world, the flesh and the devil? You count yourself as saved out of the world to live unto God? Then step ahead Into your new life, looking to Christ for the power to make it through. Look away from self utterly to Him. Look to Him for Wisdom Strength - Cheer Joy Peace all the way all the day. Geo. N. Taylor, Cloverdale, Ore, This space paid for by an Ore gon buainessman.
