58 She WATCHTOWER.

    • The bands of copper and iron being removed

from the old stump, no mere shall the human race be ruled by wicked spirit and crucl human ercatures. The new cedar tree, the righteous overlordship and government with Christ as Head, King and Savior, is made available for all of the human race who will be obedient to God. The One who was lowly and Cespiscd of men and by wicked angels is now exalted to the highest place, and thus Jehovah creates a new tree; and enthroning his Son as King and Overlord of man he has thus set up him who Broogiyn, N.Y. vah's Vindicator, and now he commands that the mes- sage shall be declared, that ‘‘in his name shall the nations hope’’. %4The propheey of Daniel, chapter four, concludes with the words: ‘‘Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.’’ (Vs. 37) Now .Je- hovah’s witnesses as heirs of the kingdom do also “‘praise and extol and honour the King of heaven”’ and delight to bear his was ‘‘the basest of men’’ BO AIS CEO ig ger Va truths to the people.

Under the organization, and as servants thereto, eomes the ‘‘great multitude’’ class. The faithful prophets of old were pictured by the tender roots left in the old stump, and because of their faithfulness they will form a part of the new tree; and into that organization shall be gathered all those of good will who will give themselves wholly to Jehovah God and his righteous government. The new tree is truly a tree of hope. That tree bears the name that Jehovah gives; it is Jchovah’s organization. He has put his holy name upon Christ Jesus, the Redeemer of man and Jeho- ever and which will bring endless blessings to obedient ones of his creation, The great tree of the earth, which Nebuchadnezzar saw, pictured Sa- tan’s organization which now shortly shall pass away. The new great tree of hope is the organization under Christ Jesus into which obedient man shall be brought and find life everlasting. The name of Christ Jesus is the hope of the world, and there is no other name in which men ean hope. Let all those who have responded to the call for the kingdom give thanks and rejoice that they are now favored with the great op- portunity of knowing Jchovah and having the priv- ilege of being his witnesses and thus have some part in the vindication of his name. All such will continue,
