But the racc's long tnnail and hattie

For "where t-in

abound." All of God's 1'1ldings are hut
beginnings. and each beginning of God
is more glorious and wondcri til than
the preceding.

W:lS much discouragtd bec:llise of the

~pirit of the people became impatient because of the way." God had been graciotls to Israel; He had fed them with
angels' food, not even withholding the
manna the day after they worshipped
the golden C:1.If. He had opened the
rock so that waters rushed out and
ran in the dry places like a ri ver; He
had spread a cloud as a co\"cring to
protect them from the great heat; and
had given them a pillar of fire as a
light in the night. "But they forgot
His works, Ii is wOlldt:rs that l1e had

The Sin of Unbelief
*
\Ve gather from the word., of their
murmuring that God was pUlling them
to the test, "There is no hread, neither is there any water." It is e\"ident
that the manna was still coming down
from heaven, hut t hey complained,
';Our soul loatheth this miserable
hread" (v. 5, Leeser's tr:lllslation).
The corn of heaven rained upon them,
and ),et they complained! 1nstead of
praising God for the prospect of entering the glorious land of promise,
they looked hack to thl! land of their
bonclage. They "spake ·against God
and against i\ loses, \\ 'hercfore hm'e
ye brought liS out of Egypt to die in
the wilderness?" Back of the com plaining was the deadly sin of unbelief; "They despised the pleasant land,

Hllto t:l(' ,<'oicl' of the l.ord." Oh. that
damnahle ancient and modern sin of
unbelief, of turning a deaf car to the

fiery serpents doubtless the offspring
of that first serpent. were hiting the

The Remedy
In those days of testing in the camp
of Israel, as the people watched the
murmurers writhing i11 the agonies of
snake bite, they saw the awful wages
sin demands. And so they went to
?-.foses and cried. "\\'t have sinlled."
They made a full confession of si n,
saying, "For we have spoken against
the Lord and against thee."
They
wanted the one th ey had despised to
become their intl:rcf.'ssor, "·Pray unto
the Lord that lIe take away the serpents from tis." Thank God that ITe
has raised up a prophet like unto
Moses, who ('yer liveth to make intercession for us. Moses prayed and God
spoke, "?-.Iake thee a ficry scrpcllt and
set it upon a pole; and it shall come
to pass that everyone that is hitten ,
when he looketh upon it, shall live."
The serpents were still there. hut they
lost their power on those who heli e\·ed
the \\'orel of the Lord, who ol>e\'ed and
looked. ?-.Ial"\'clous picture of tIle foreshadowed cross of Calvary. "As
110ses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness e"en so must the Son of man
be lifted up, that whosoever believeth
in J] im shol1ld not perish bm have
enrlasting life."
\Vc read, "Anel it came to pass that
i ( a serpellt had bitten any man, when
he beheld the serpent of hrass he
lived." The serpent placed UpOIl tha t
pole was the \"Cry ptr~ollificalioll of
sin being judged. At Calvary J Ie who
knew no sin became sin for liS and received s.in·s wages. the judgmcnt of
sin--death. But through death , that
death on the cross, Christ paralyzed
him who hath the power of deatheven the dC\"il. lleb. 2: 14. There is
life today for a look at the Crucified
One.

111iks a day. \Ve carry 110 fnod along
for thcm, they live aitog'dher on the
grass 0 f the COUllt ry as we go along.
1f we rUIl into a dry plat.·t.' they may
go {\vo or three davs wilhollt an)'
grass. Once we tra\'dcrl for twentysc:wn hours without a drop of anything to moisten our lips. I ha\'e gone
for months hungry all the ti me, but
whL'n you get thirsty it is terrihle. \Ve
lost five animals that day. That was
the onl y time in tell yca rs that the big
river had becn dri ed up. The fir st
water we found was a littl e stream
tri ck ling- from under a lot of tall grass
that had rotted. The watcr was covered with a yellow SCUIll and mosqu itoes , but r got down on my hands and
knees and began drinking. 0 f course
the devil was right t here to suggest,
"Yellow fcver, you'll gct it." But God
took me through without any evil cffects.
Right after that we came to Tsai
Dam. a g reat marshy section of the
country several hundreds of miles
across. As you arc traveling along
that section suddenly you will si nk. In
many cases the animals, loads and all,
sink out of sight and it is impossible
to rescue them. J lowe"cr we did not
lose any, somc of ours sank but we
were able to pull them out. My horse
sank from under me a number of
times. Once a man and I were tra\'cling along in cxactly the same steps
we had gone the day before, when his
horse sank right und", r him and threw
him off by its sudden stop. This
marshy land has a numher of big rivers flowing into it, but no outlet. It
is inhahitated by Mon.c::olians because
it is too hot for the Tibetans. It is
the lowest part of the whole northern
section of Tibet. Evcn where thev
pitch their tents the ground rolls and
swells as they step on it . If it becomes too boggy they move to another
"pot. In that section they live princi-

After we left the T sai Dam we
crossed over the Kilen Lun range of
mOllntains at an altitude. of over fourt('('n thollsand fect. and the next step
was across the iron plateau at an altitude of eighteen thou5and feet. Along
thc road we met large caravans of traders and pilgrims who had been to
Lhasa. \Vc soon got word that we
were going to be held up but we kept
on journeying until we got weB down
into the heart of the country; there
we met the men who were sent out to
stop us. I sent a 1I13n do wn to find
out a little more, and was given permis'iion to come within ten miles of
the chief's headquarters. A ftcr a few
davs of sendin~ back ami forth I was
able to go I11vself and see the chief.
It was there that they lin('(} us up and
threatened to kilI us. \·Vhile hc was
talking to my men and threatening
them I said that it was a "erv small

In the Ilw<Lntill1c I had bcen able to

the ruler of Tihet; but the official who
held us up had not llotifiL'd thl! ruIn of

planned to make the trip in four
months but it took c1c\'en; we were
held tip in on(' place for three months.
It was from therc I !'ent letters to my
parents and to 1 feadquarters. and I did
not know that the report had been given out that J was killed.
\ Ve passed through one district that
had 22,000 tents and the chief of that
di st rict visited us a number of times
while we were camped on the borders
of his di strict. Ile was very friendly
and on one of his \'lsits brought us
a small bag of rice and some butter.
Of course we gave them the gospe l and
had long conversations with them.
Whilc we werc being held there t he
people for many miles around heard
of us and some of their head men
came as many as fifteen days' journey
to see tiS, just out of curiosity, and to
them al so we gave the gospel. There
was a religious fair there also, and we
werc able to do a g reat deal of missionary work among the people who
had gathered.
The priests here were from t he old,
original religion of Tibet-<Icvil worship. Some people in America do not
believe in demon possession, thev think
it is hysterics; but if they haC! some
of those poor dcmon-possessed fellows here they would see the difference. A man who had been a robber
came to me for help one time. and he
told me how his wi £e had been sick
and a Tibetan doctor ofIered to cure
her for a certain amount of money.
The doctor cut O\'er each arm and each

they throw them in the river. For this
reason a Tibetan will !10t cat fish. They

that if the fish has eaten parts of that

pcrson has passed into the fish, and if
they eat the fish they will be eating

We are glad to present to ou r people a new idea
and a new production that we believe will be welcomed by all those
who love the Word.
Placing the words of Scripture where they will
be effective is always profitable.
Many of the outstanding texts are
now reproduced in indestructible metal, making them more practicable than ever.
Each design is from an origi nal carving cast first
in bronze, then caref ully chased and recast in aluminum and pol ished.
The delicate colorings are permanentl y fixed with a final
coating of lacqu er preventing rust or corrosion.
Chipping or break-
ing is impossible, and a damp cloth is all that is needed for clea ning.
Each design has a dignity in harmony with the scripture refe ren ce

'vVho will dare say that the Bible is
obsolete or obso!r.:sce;lt, when it anticipates the discoveries of science by 1,9(X) years?
Centuries ago God spoke, and caused
it to be written, that "Behold. 1Je

when He comes in lIis glory, will be
greeted with "1Iosannas" by many,
whi le ot hers will cry out to the rocks
and mountains, "FilII on us, and hide

This hour which marks God's preparation for the advent of the King of
kings, the ill\'asion of earth by the celestial, is the same hour in which we
of the earth are moving out, by com1l1ll1lication, into the skies, The human
voice, by the power of science. can
now be heard around the world, Surely, the King of glory, with His infinite

tlr. i\lorrisoll left for the Salwill an
incidcnt occufred which stirred both
of Ollr hearts to the great commission
which lay ahead of us.
\\'hile in sef\'ice olle SUllday morning , i\ l r. i\iorrison, on looking D"er
the congregation, saw a Illall dressed
in the 1\ollg tnbe costume, boblred
hair, short of stature, and wearing the
skirt and upper garment o f this tribe.
J Ie was ,'cry much surprised to sce
the man, and hoped to bc able to speak
to him at the close of the service. but
was disappointed in that respect, as
the man leit before the meeting finished. Mr. i\lorrison later vi si ted the
Illall and obtained ,'alliable information
relative to the territory and roads leading into the Salwin valley. The man
advised him to wait for a couple of
weeks until the snows all the high
mOlilltain passes cleared away. This
he did.
It has been very lonely without Mr .
1I[orrison, and what makes it worse is
that there is no mail route across to the
Sal win whereby we can send letters
back and forth to each other. The
only way to send mail is to hire a runner (or messenger) to take the letter
and bring one in return. 1 was very happyon i\londay to receive a letter from
1I1r. i\lorrisoll brought by two Li»u
men from the Sal win. It took these
men five days to cross over the snow
mountains, and bring me Illy letter.
They stayed just olle day, dllring which

seven families of Chinese living here,
