Now continue in Isaiah. chapter
12. Note the GOOD NEWS Coming!
"And in that day thou shalt say, O
ETERNAL. 1 will praise thee: though
thou wast angry with me, thine
anger is turned away, and thou
comfortedst me. Behold, God is my
salvation; 1 will trust, and not be
afraid: for the LORD ETERNAL is my
strength and my song; he also is
become my salvation. Therefore
WJTH JOY shall ye draw water out of
the wells of salvation" (verses 1-3).

make mention that his name is ex–
alted. StNG unto the ETERNAL; for
he hath done exceUent things: this is
known in all the earth. Cry out and
SHOUT, thou inhabitant of Zion: for
great is the Holy One of Israel in thc
midst of thee."
In l saiah 14, speaking of an evil
human type of Satan at a time in
the very near future: " He who
smote the people in wrath with a
continua! stroke, he that ruled the
nations in anger, is persecuted. and
none hindereth. THE WHOLE EARTH
IS AT REST, AND ISQUIET: they break
forth into singing. Yea, the fir trees
rejoice at thee, and the cedars of
Lebanon, saying, Since thou art laid
down, no feller is come up against
us" (verses
6-8).

living waters [the Holy Spirit) shall
go out from Jerusa lem .... And the
ETERNAL shall be king over all the
earth: in that day shall there be one
LORD, and his name one.... And
men shall dwell in it [Jerusalem],
and there shall be no more utter
destruction ; but Jerusalem shall be
safely inhabited" (verses
8-9.

RESURRECTION
(Continued from page 13)
"mushroom cult" toa charlatan and
a fraud, the sol id evidence of history
proves
Jesus Christ of Nazareth
walked out of His tomb; that He is
alive today; that He is directly inter–
vening from time to time in human
atfairs; that He is on a "countdown"
from heaven; that time is drawing
very near for His
reLUrn lo
this
earth
when
bil/ions
will finally be FORCED
lo believe!
Neil Arrnstrong said that he was
taking a giant step for mankind
when he walked on the surface of
the moon. Yet Jesus took a bigger
step when he walked righl through
that solid rock tomb.
You, too, can step out of your
grave in an instant of time when the
heavens are renl al the return of
Jesus Christ. You can also take your
walk inlo eternity.
