OFFICIAL ORGAN OF PAPER NO. 513 ( THE ASSEMBLIES OFGOD SPRINGFIELD, MO., SEPTEMBER S. 1923 a lOR ncyer man !:ipake lik<.: I lim- the Christ uf God. It was the voice of gracc to the woman who was a !:Iinner; the \'oice of tenderness, J.. to the weary and heavy laden: the voicc of pathos. choked with , ~. emotion, as lie wept o,'cr Jerusalem; the "Dice of authority as I~ lie cast the !:ic,-en demons Ollt of ?lrary ~lagdalcne; the Hlice of \ ' power a~ TIe called for Lazarus to come forth; the voice of con· sidelation when Jle saicl. "Gi,'c \'c them to {'at"-the thousands oj hungry and "'cary ones; the "oiec of counsel and instruction as lTe told thcm of their 1"l'lalion to the Ville and to abide in Him: the "oice of holiness and mystery as ] fe uttered that prayer to His Father that is recorded in th(' 17th rhapter of John: it was thc "oice of self-forgetfulness as lfe said, "Father, forgi"e them, thcy know not what they do;" it was the "oice of thoughtfulness as TIe !>aid to John, IiBehold thy mother," and to His mother, "Behold thy son:" it -.vas a voice of authority, po\\"('r, victory and triumph as ITe said, "It is finished. Father, into Thy hand!> I commend ?\ry ~pirit." After thc resurrection there i!> the sallie swcetness, the same intonation, the same majesty; but with something added which neither man nor angels could understand, as He spoke in the garden and as He said, HMary!" as 1 Ie spoke to lhose in the upper room and said, "Rec<:i,'e ye the Holy Spirit." There was lhe majesty of the Godhead in the voice that spoke, "All po\\"(:r is given unto Mc in heaven and in earth." "Behold, I send the promise of My Father upon yOll: hut tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high." The "oice is still being heard, seldom by men, hut continuously by the Father as the great High Priest ever lives to make intercession. As the voice was heard in the earth, in solicitation, entreaty or other wise, as partly enumerated in the abm·e, so that voice is uttered in various aspects of entreaty, consideratio n, pleading, intercession, before the Father by Jesus, the Son of man, the great II igh Priest taken out from among men, Imaginat ion fails to concei\"C of the power of that voice when I-Ie comes as King, He is coming as Bridegroom to raise Ilis saints to meet Him . \Ve are told the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and -with the trump of God-fin ite descl"iptionslof a n infinite voice, . But the greatest of all, the sweetest of all, will be when we hear, "Comc ye blessed of )'ly Father. inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the fo undat ion of the world . . . . Inasmuch as ye have don e it unto one of the least of these ).ry brethren, ye have done it unto !\fc." "Enter thou into the joy of Thy Lord." The voice is active, powerful. and is heard in mercy now. Tt will be; heard in judgment h ereafte r. This voice is heard by the sinner in mercy now; but if rejected it will be heard in judgment hereafter.

It has surely sti rred the entire Mexican population \Ve had our first service Thursday night, July 26th, It was marvelous to see how these poor, hungry hearts enjoyed tl](' \Vord preached in th~ir language in the powe r oi the Spirit. After service fivc came forward for healing with uplifted hearts to the Lord. Another victory \\as that the lady of the house opened her cloors for the 5ervices. This meant much as she was a devoted Catholic al!)o a godmother (\\hich mcans she haptizes infants), It was (ltlite a sight to 5ee the ~acred idols and olher things in one corlLer of the room where we had our services. There was a table w ith numerous sacred articles, such as holy palms, twigs of trees. berries. idols, a vessel filled with charcoa l and ashcs where she had been hurning inceme, etc. From the ceiling to the (loor were pictures of Christ and the disciplcs and other holy sai nts. But praise (~od, in spite of all this, the power of God \\-a'> present to ble,>s and to heal. "At Corsicana the Lord was with us and nine were at the altar seeking salvation Sunday night, sOllie seeking salvation. othe rs the bapti~m. \\'e have our tent there and Brother Joe Marlenz has charge.
