1912—VOLUNTEER MATTER PLENTIFUL—1912

Our financial deficiency noted in our Society’s Report for 1911 has been much more than made up! We are prepared to supply I.B.S.A. Classes everywhere with this year’s free literature in unlimited quantities. There is no need for any to be idle. The harvest is plenteous, the laborers are comparatively few. Let us extend our efforts and increase our own joy and usefulness. We desire earnestly our Master’s “Well done, good and faithful servant.” We have this year’s special issue of PEOPLES PULPIT ready now for shipment, and its message, “The Handwriting on the Wall,” is timely. Everybody can have a hand in this branch of harvest work. “He that reapeth receiveth wages.”

LOANING MONEY TO PROFESSED BRETHREN

Caution along this line is rarely needed by the majority of people; but our readers are very sympathetic whenever Christian brethren make an appeal. We are glad that this sympathetic feeling exists and would not destroy it for a great deal. Frequently, however, we receive letters from brethren telling how they were deceived and asking us to warn others to be on guard against deceivers.

This is a matter in which we can do nothing. Each individual must use his common sense and strive to do the Lord’s will with whatever money talent he possesses. One good thought to have in mind is the Bible instruction that nothing be loaned which we could not afford to lose.

WHEN WILL SATAN BE DESTROYED?

The above words are found on the first line of the second column, page 45, of our issue of February 1. They are wrong and give an entirely erroneous coloring to the statements following. About two thousand copies of THE WATCH TOWER were printed with this mistake. All the remainder, however, had the sentence properly, as written by the Editor, namely, “When and how will this be done?” Please look up your copy of that issue and make it correct, as it might be misleading to a stranger, although the error is so glaring that anyone familiar with the Truth should recognize it at once.
