INTERESTING QUESTIONS

PROPER COURSE FOR PILGRIMS

Question.—Is it wise or proper for a Pilgrim en-journey to be entertained by those who are out of sympathy with the Vow and with the work of the Society in general, even though he be an Elder of the Class?

Answer.—Most decidedly not. Furthermore the Pilgrims should make clear to the Class that they had greatly erred in selecting such a one for an Elder, and should help them to rectify the matter as quickly as possible.

If the Class likes that Elder who is out of accord with the Society’s work, it should not make a request for Pilgrim service. Some of the Lord’s dear sheep are very stupid. Meekness and gentleness are commendable; but there are times when they would mean disloyalty to God.

MEANING OF VOICE OF JEHOVAH

Question.—It is said of Adam and Eve, “And they heard the Voice of Jehovah.” What is meant by the “Voice” of Jehovah?

Answer.—We suppose that it refers to our Lord Jesus in His pre-human condition. The Logos was a god. The Logos, Word, Voice, of God, communicated with man, as the Representative of God.
