CAUGHT UP TOGETHER

I sing hallelujah that Jesus is coming,
And oh, what a raising of life from the dead;
The graves bursting open to give up God's children,
Those bodies long moldered in grave's dusty bed.

We wait for the coming of Jesus our Saviour,
Expecting the rapture, caught up in the clouds;
The world has its sorrows, we'll leave them so gladly,
We'll wipe all our tears when the trumpet calls loud.

We'll rise incorruptible when sounds the trumpet;
O Grave, where the victory long you have known?
All changed then the living, and all go together,
And oh, what a gath'ring to Christ of His own.

Come up all ye saints of the past to that meeting,
From Abel to Moses, from David to Paul;
Come up, all ye martyrs, soul winners, Christ lovers,
All under the blood of our Saviour, come all.

Caught up to greet Him together, together,
Caught up with Jesus and never to part;
Changed in a moment to be with my Saviour,
Caught up together and never to part.
John R. Rice

THE TRUEST FRIEND

Never was a mother with a love so true,
Never friend or brother who so faithful proved.
Father ne'er provided half so bounteously;
All your dreams surpassing will the Saviour be.

He who made the worlds and set diem in the sky,
Now will hear the penitent and heed their cry.
He who knows our weakness will forgive our sin;
When we cry for mercy He will come within.

When the world brings sorrow, He will still be near.
Age be not a foe, nor sickness bring sad tears.
And should friends forsake, or loved ones far be gone.
He will fill the lack for all who lean more strong.

Loving, keeping, giving all the happy years.
Jesus makes it Heaven in this vale of tears.
But He's coming for me and will cleave the sky
With the saints forever where we'll never die!
John R. Rice

Look Up

When your aching heart is breaking,
And you see no earthly way,
Look up…Feast your eyes on heaven…
You will see a shining ray.
There’s help for all who seek and call
On the Savior’s precious name,
All our hope is found in Jesus…
He Is Lord…Our King Doth Reign!

He hears our plea and sets us free,
A new song He doth impart,
That we might live victoriously…
Oh, what joy doth fill our heart!
Friend, why despair when Christ is there
To fulfill your every need?
Come to the Savior and be healed…
Your Hungering Soul He’ll Feed.

You can’t afford to miss the Lord,
Such great blessings are in store!
Turn your eyes toward heaven above…
And rejoice forevermore.
It was for the broken hearted
Jesus, the Messiah, came…
His precious blood was shed for you…
Look Up…Call Upon His Name!

“O Lord, I will direct my prayer
unto thee, and will look up.”
“For whosoever shall call upon the
name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Jesus said: “He hath sent me to heal
the broken hearted, to preach
deliverance to the captives”
(Ps. 5:3; Rom. 10:13; Lu. 48:18)

Questions Answered
What Is the Meaning of Genesis 3:15?
—By Dr. Curtis Hutson

This verse says, "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel."

It is the first promise of the coming of the Saviour. No sooner had Adam and Eve fallen into sin than the Lord God came upon the scene, and after they admitted they had disobeyed and now were sinners, God announced the coming of the One who would be the second Adam and bear the sins of the world.

The clear meaning of the reference to the seed of the woman has to do with Mary's conception of Jesus Christ without a human father. Isaiah 7:14 says, "Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel." Then Jeremiah 31:22 says, "For the LORD hath created a new thing in the earth, A woman shall compass a man."

This verse does not say that a man and a woman together will have a child; this promises an entirely new thing—that a woman would bring forth a son without a human father. So you see, this is the same promise God gave to Eve when He mentioned the seed of the woman.

The serpent is, of course, Satan. Genesis 3:15, speaking to Satan, says, "I will put enmity between thee and the woman."

From that very moment in the Garden when God prepared salvation for Adam and Eve, there arose enmity or war between Satan and every child ever born. Many have supposed that the culmination of this enmity came when Jesus died on the cross. While it is true that when Jesus died on the cross, He purchased our salvation and made it possible for us to be victors over sin and Satan, the bruising of the serpent's head points to the second coming of Christ. "...and between thy seed and her seed"

I think that "thy seed," speaking of Satan's seed, is a reference to the Antichrist. Since the seed of the woman was a single Person, the Lord Jesus Christ, then the seed of the serpent will also be a single person, the Antichrist. His being the seed of Satan gives a hint of the supernatural and satanic nature and character of the Antichrist. Satan has always tried to imitate God, and the climax of this imitation will come when the Antichrist, the seed of Satan, is produced.

"Thy seed and her seed" must mean the war is to continue between the woman's seed and Satan until the final victory of Christ over the Antichrist. The battle of battles comes in Revelation 19:19,20.

"And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
"And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone"

When the Beast, or the Antichrist, and the kings of the earth and their armies gather together to make war against Christ and His armies out of Heaven, the Beast is taken, with the false prophet, and cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone. —Sword of the Lord

A Difficult Hill

Researchers at the University of Virginia have found that most people perceive a hill to be steeper than it really is, especially if they are tired or carrying a heavy load. When asked to estimate the slope of a hill, test participants consistently misjudged it, thinking a 10-degree slant was about 30 degrees, and
