192 and Jesus Christ is the King of kings and Lord of lords. This is the day of all days. Behold, the King reigns! You are his publicity agents. Therefore adver- tise, advertise, advertise the King and his kingdom.”’ (See The Watchtower 1922, page 337.) In obedience to the Lord’s command the faithful remnant then went forth and walked through the earth proclaiming the message of the kingdom, and are still at that work. They asking how long this work must continue, the Lord makes it known that it must continue until the battle of the great day of God Almighty. (Isa. 6: 11) The army of the Lord is on the trek and the day of war draws nigh. The division of the army that moves against the enemy in the north country does the chief part of the work. ‘‘Then cried he upon [unto] me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north eountry.’’ (6:8) The war chariots drawn by the black horses and white horses move against Gog in the land of Magog, and this is pleasing to Jehovah; showing that this is the division of his army that vindicates his name. ‘‘These . . . have quieted (the indignation of) my spirit’’ (Leeser) ; ‘‘have settled my spirit,’’ or, ‘‘eaused mine anger to rest.’’ (Roth., footnote) These bring satisfaction to the spirit of Jehovah be- cause they execute his vengeance upon Satan’s organ- She WATCHTOWER. BROOKLYN, N. Y¥. ization. (Ezek. 39:6) This work they do after the witness work by the earthly division is completed. The division pictured by the grizzled horses that move on the ‘‘south- eountry’’, the earthly part of Satan’s organization, do their part to the pleasure of Jehovah; but the division that destroys the invis- ible enemy, Gog and all those of the land of Magog, does the chief executing work. The earthly division of Satan’s army is merely the ally of Gog and in the conspiracy. After the fall of his organization, then Satan the old Dragon is bound and put to death. (Rev. 20:1-3) All of this must be done before Jeho- vah’s name is completely vindicated. Satan’s organi- zation, head, body and tail, must be destroyed, and then Jehovah will be pleased. (Ezek. 5:18; 16:42; 21:17; 24:13) The fact that the leader of the army of the Lord cries with a loud and positive command to this division moving on Gog shows that the army is moving into action and the noise of battle is on. All of this proves that Jehovah’s witnesses on the earth are not the ones that put the Devil’s organiza- tion out of business, but that they must do their wit- ness work before the big fight is really on. The rem- nant could not accomplish the destruction of the enemy by bearing witness for a million years. They present themselves and perform their part according to the will of God, and then the great war follows. LETTERS DECLARE ALLEGIANCE TO JEHOVAH Dear BROTHER RUTHERFORD: We, the Birmingham (England) company of Jehovah’s wit- nesses, wish to declare our allegiance to Jehovah and to the Society as His channel in providing ‘*meat in due season’’ and instructions in preaching the kingdom message. We rejoice as we see our ‘‘tompanions’’ coming forward week by week and entering into the ‘joy of the Lord’. We thank you personally for your interest in the British field, and particularly for changes which have recently added to the zeal and enthusiasm of us all. The work here is increasing, and never before have we as & company felt a keener desire to co-operate with the British Branch office, and indeed the Society as a whole, as we do at the present time. We therefore continue to pray for the pros- perity of Zion and for the peace of Jerusalem that the Lord may continue to show his favor upon us all. Yours in Jehovah, BIRMINGHAM COMPANY OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES. JEHOVAH HAS GRANTED THE “INCREASE” DeEsR BROTHER RUTHERFORD: Your recent encouraging letter, calling attention to the im- portance of the hour and to the message of the Lord that must now be delivered to the people, has given rise to the desire to express our appreciation of the great privilege set before us to have a share in this world-wide work, and out of that desire has come the following resolution: ‘¢That we stand unitedly behind you as president of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society, the Lord’s visible organization on earth, and do wish to convey to you our sincere co-operation in the most important work done on earth today.’’ We are a ‘‘young’’ company, having been organized for a little more than a year, but feel that Jehovah has granted the

to obey his commands. (Matt. 24: 14) We are indeed grateful for the truths published in the Watch Tower publications and accept same as food convenient to strengthen us at this time. May our heavenly Father continue to guide and uphold you and your colaborers in your strenuous part of the great work he has entrusted to your hands, Your brethren by His grace, JouN FISCHER IRENE Moore ANDREW Van DYK BENJAMIN MILLER FLORENCE MANN Rurs M.
