Tho address opened with a scathing
arrahrninent of the Higher Critics.
Our richly endowed colleges, he de
clared, are undermining faith In the
Bible, which means faith in a personal
God, and are substituting a scant rec
ognition of the laws of nature, devoid
of sympnthy or mercy. Practically
every minister graduated during the
last twelve years has been an agnostic
and a believer In human evolution
Disbelief In the Bible account of man's

disbelief in the need of redemption

"I do not question the sincerity of
the Higher Critics. Experiences of
my own along the same lino forty
years ago give me great sympathy for
them," 6ald Pastor Russell. He Insist
ed, however, that It Is not honorable
for those who have abandoned the
creeds to pose before the public as sup
porters of the creeds, and to draw sal
aries and receive honorary titles for
undermining the faith of the people,
while posing as the representatives of
Christ and the Bible. lie declared such
a course dishonest and dishonorable.
The Deluge Corroborated by History
"I would that 1 might lure back to
the Word of God some of the noble
minds now arrayed against it! I know
their difficulty. In their minds they
associate the unreasonable theories of
our creeds with the Bible, believing it
to be the foundation for the gross dark
ness and superstition which once blind
ed us all. Would that 1 could snow
them, as I now see It, the fallacy of
this position show them that the Bible
la in most violent conflict with the er
rors of the past, and that It teaches
from Genesis to Revelation a Divine
Flan so wonderful that all may bo sure
that only a God of Wisdom and Love
could have devised it, and only those
moved by His Holy Spirit could have
written It."
"But." quoth the Tastor, "the Bible
truly says that we may see the deep
things of God only by the Illumination
of the Holy Spirit, and that Illumina
tion la promised only to the sanctified.
The fearful thought Impresses us that
by no means all of the professed minis

Tho sneaker held that the Higher
Critics approach every Bible topic from
the standpoint of unbelief, and declar
ed that If they would reverse their po

the Bible story, their success would be
better. These critics, exploring the

with the facts of nature and Lriefly to
chow thn.t they fully conlinu the words
.if Jesus, the Apostlt-s and Moses ve--pecting
the Deluge.
The great stumbling-block heretofore
has been the supposition that the story
of the Deluge implies a flat earth, and
that such a flood of watcrs'rMng high
er than the mountains should be recog
nized as an impossibility, since we
know that the earth is a sphere. Thus
does shallow thinking, called "wisdom
of this world," set In defiance the Wis
dom of God and Ills Word to its own
confusion.
As the study of astronomy has pro
gressed, the Vaillan theory respecting
creation has come forward. It shows
that the earth when in a uiol'.en condi
tion must have thrown off various min
erals in gaseous form. These, cooling,
would become more or less separated
from each other, according to density,
and must have constituted great rings
and bands about the earth, similar to
those which we perceive encircling
Saturn and Jupiter. As the earth
cooled, these rings would obtain sepa
rate motions ot their own, because of
their distance; yet always they would
tend to gravitate toward the earth
The circumambient air, or firmament
would keep these from Immediate pre
cipitation. Gradually they would spread
out as a great canopy, gravitating more
and more toward the poles, because of
the greater centrifugal force at the
equator. Finally, the accumulation at
the poles would become bo great as to
overcome the resistance of the atmos
phere, and cause precipitations, which
would flow toward the equator.
The theory is that many such deluges
had been precipitated upon the earth
before man was created, and that from
these came many of the mineral depos
its of earth. Only one such ring re
mained when man was created. In-'
deed, this was not a ring, but had come
to tho state in which it acted as a can
opy. As the last of these rings, it con
sisted of pure water. As a canopy it
refracted the sun's rays much as would
the roof of n hot-house, so that the
temperature of earth was uniform the
same at the poles as at the equator.
Divine Wisdom foreknew the condition
of things which would prevail at the
time of the Deluge, and hence delayed
the breaking of this great envelope of
waters until that time.
Frozen In the Solid Ice.
Not long ago, in Siberia, a mammoth
was found with grass between Its
teeth, frozen solid in a great basin of
Ice, which was so clear that the ani
mal could be seen long before the Ice
melted enough for it to be conveniently
exhumed. Similarly, a deer was found
In the polar regions, with undigested
grass In its stomach, proving clearly
that the catastrophe which overtook
It. aud froze It solidly in the Ice was
a sudden one Just such as did occur,
according to the Vaillan theory.
The breaking of the watery envelope
mnile the change at the poles sudden,
aud sent a great flood of waters over
the earth toward the equator. Thus
came the treat Glacial Period, aud
some of the great glaciers, or icebergs,
carried over North America, cut great
gullies, valleys, crevices, canyons. Ge
ologists have traced the course of some
of Ihesw aud charted them.
Equatorial Heat Was Intense.
As the cold at the poles was extreme
to form the great ice-enps covering
the earth and only gradually melting
away so the boat at the equator must
have been proportionately extreme.
The Intense beat at the equator, warm
ing the ocean, set up ocean currents.
These for the past four thousand years
have been gradually modifying tho arc
tic regions advancing the temperate
zone further and further toward the
poles, and more and more reduclug the
Ice-caps, bringing them toward the
equator as great icebergs to be melted
and sent back warm.
Ths Ark Divinely Protected.
We naturally Inquire, Where was the
Ark while such a torrent of water
poured over the earth from the poles?
How was It that the Ark was kept
safe and comparatively quiet in such a
time of stress? The answer of faith
would be that God, who directed Noah
and his family to build the Ark, exer
cising His Power would undoubtedly
protect it
And now comes forward Prof. George
Frederick Wright, the geologist, who
tells the world that the region around
about Mt Ararat, where the Ark
rested, was apparently at one time the
scene of a great eddy. While the wa
ters raged elsewhere, God specially
held that part quiet, Just as we have
often seen a quiet eddy or bay along
side of a swiftly rushing stream.
Prof. Wright's deductions respecting
the quietness of this little corner of the
earth are drawn largely from the fact
that he finds there a wonderfully deep
soil, which seems to indicate that It
was a settling basin for intensely mud
dy wnters In tho long ago.
Tastor Russell then drew u lesson
from the Deluge In the line of his text
Ho deduced that the Savior's words do
not refer to the u-fcJtn of the ante
diluvians, and that lie did not compare
it to the wickedne at the time of His
Second Advent though doubtless a cor
respondency might have been deducl
ble. The Master's words imply rather
that, as the people of Noah's day were
quite uneontwitw of the coming Drluye,
so will all mankind be totally uncon
scious of the great catastrophe which
will como upon tho world in the end of
this Age, preparing the way of Mes
siah's Kingdom.
Tho clear teaching of our text ts that
the Day of the Son of Man, the time of
His parousin, or presence, will precede
the time of trouble coming upon the
world. St. Matthew's account ctf this
same discourse In slightly different and
emphasizes the point we are umkiug.
It declares, "Thus shall It be in the
resence parouniui of lie Son of
Man." in other words, the Scriptures
k'uriy teach that ttie Second Coming
of Jesus will be invisible to the world.
and visible, even to His people, osly
by the eye of faith.
During His parounki a sifting, or test
ing, of His consecrated Church will
proceed, and will result in the gather
ing of all the Elect into the Heavenly
Kingdom by the change of the First
Resurrection. This will be the full en4
ef the Gospel Age, and the full fteti'
ning of the New Age. It is to this time
Jesus referred, saying. "Watch ye.
therefore and pray always, that ye may
be accounted worthy to escape all these
things that shall come to pass, and to
stand before the Son of Man."
As soon as the Church shall all have
passed beyond the veil into the condi
tion of Heavenly glory the Kingdom
condition the great time of trouble
will fully envelop the earth "a time of
trouble, such as never was since them
was a nation." Dan. 12:1; Matt 24:21.
It will be that time of trouble which
will be Messiah's revelation of Him
self to the world. In it, they will seek
the covering, or protection, of the gret
rocks of society (secret orders) and of
the great mountains of earth (earth!;
governments.) (Revelation 6:14-16.) But
none of these will be able to deliver
them from the fiery trouble (distress!
of that Day, which will consume every
institution out of accord with right
eousness, truth; justice. "He shall bt
revealed in flaming fire, takln
vengeance."
The vengeance will not be so much
against deluded and ensnared human
ity, as against evil principles and the
unjust arrangements of the present
time. When we say unjust arrange
ments, we do not wish to be under
stood that the world Is necessarily
more unjust than In the past; but rath
er that, with our increased light and
knowledge, more is expected of the
present generation than of their fore
fathers. From all accounts, we infer that the
time of trouble will be sharp and short,
"else would no flesh be saved." Mes
siah's spiritual Kingdom, invisible to
men, will come to the rescue. It will
have its earthly representatives, and
order will soon come ort of chaos. Hu
manity, humbled by the fall of presenl
institutions, will be ready to accept
Messiah's Kingdom. We read, there
fore, that it will be "the desire of all
nations."
It is for us, my beloved hearers, to
continue to abide In Christ, to seek
nis will In every matter, to wait pa
tiently for His appointed time for our
deliverance, and according to our cove
nant, lay down our lives In the serv
ice of the brethren. We remind you
of St. Paul's words, "The Day of the
Lord so cometh as a thief In the night
When they the worldly shall say,
Teace and safety, then sudden destruc
tion cometh upon them, as travail upon
a woman with child; and they shall not
escape. But ye, brethren, are not in
darkness, that that Day should over
take you as a thief. Ye are all the
children of light, nnd the children of
the Day." 1 Thessnlonians 5:1-5.
The light now shining Is and should
be very helpful to us. If we realize
that we are living in the "days of the
Sou of Man" that the inspection of
the Church is now in progress, and
that soon the Elect will be complete
this faith will make us the more zeal
ous to make our calling aud election
sure. Therefore.
"Let us watch and pray.
And labor till tho work Is done."
Gradually mankind will come to un
derstand. Gradually their eyes of un
derstanding will open, and they will
see that it is tho "wrath of the Lamb"
that causes the "time of trouble such
as never was since there was a na
tiou." They will learu the intended
lesson.
Some, in reading Jesus' words, "As it
was in the days of Noah," have infer
red a time of dreadful wickedness la
the end of this Age, corresponding t
tho wickedness of Nonh's day. There
may or there may not be a parallel In
this respect We merely call attention
to the fact that the Master did not so
say. He said that as In Noah's day
humanity were eating, drinking, marry
ing and building, without realizing
that a great change in dispensation
was lmH(iiding, so it will be with man
kind In the days of the Son of Man.
In the time of Christ's Second Pres
ence, men will know it not, but will
proceed about the ordinary affairs of
life eating, drinking, planting, build
ing and know not, until the great and
sudden catastrophe of anarchy Is upon
them. As literal water swept nway lit
eral things existing before the Flood, so
symbolic fire trouble, destruction will
sweep away the Institutions of today,
and prepare the way for the new In
stitutions, which the Scriptures de
scribe as the new heavens and the new
earth. (Isaiah 00:22; 2 Teter 3:13.) The
new heavens will be the new ecclesias
tical powers the Church, the Elect ia
