T H E K I N G ' S B U S I N E S S His wondrous knowledge they today display In their far off divinely guided flight; Bright garlands for the finite mind of clay, They wreathe man’s brow with count­ less worlds of light. My thirsting soul is overshadowed, subdued, And falls before the promised Shi­ loh’s feet; Adores the spotless Lamb supremely good Through Whom the Church is saved and made complete. I can’t forget when, many years ago, I read the first line in God’s Holy Book, My soul within me said, “ These words are so, To find the living God’s the highest look.’’ Nor have I trusted in my Lord in vain Who knows the heart of man and dwells within; Who died upon the Cross that I might gain Eternal life and triumph over sin. The greatest gift to fallen man is this, Made sure to all who will the truth embrace, To know the Shiloh of God’s. Genesis In the unfolding of redeeming grace. —W. C. Carter.

There is one chapter in the Bible which Satan is not particularly anxious we should ever read, and that is Ezek. 28:11-19. In these verses the prophet starts by describing the King of Tyre, but soon is found to be mentioning characteristics of a supernatural being. He is doing what the prophets frequent­ ly did— describing the evil personality back of the wicked man, the King of Tyre. Here we find to our surprise that Satan was perfect when he was created and that he actually assisted in the wor­ ship of God, but the reason for his downfall is given in the seventeenth verse as pride; in other words, Satan desired to direct to himself the wor­ ship which rightfully belonged to God. Another chapter which is seemingly in great disfavor with Satan is Isaiah 14:9-17, where the funeral dirge is writ­ ten that will mark his final downfall as described in Rev. 20:10. 4 » a » GENESIS Before the book of Genesis I stand And from its bright apocalyptic peak, I watch the stars of God, all in His hand.
