Th?n shall ye return, aad djpym between the righteous and the wicked, between him iliat stritth God, and him that serveth him not."— Malacbi iii, T-ia These few words of tbe last of the ancient prophets (written moife than two thousand years ago, and carefuUy preserved for our benefit at this time) tell us very clearly and dMbctly, bow we may bave the Kingdom of God upon earth now as soon iK^ we like. <' Bring ye, all the tithes into the storehouse . . . and prove me now herewith, saith tbe Lord of Hosts, if I will not mm. yon the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, tnat there shall not be room enbnghjto receive it." Suppose a few in good droumstanoes should now ''prove** tbe Almighty precisely as thej ai^ here required to do, by deviating " all their tithes " (or the ttintk part of their wealth) towards estob* lishing <* the Kingdom of Ood " upon earth. The promised " blessing *' would certainly follow, as a matter of course, for the I>nufieworthy action of tbeee law (wbo should thus manif^ their sinceritv and earnestness in the service of God, for the benefit of man) would inevitably condemn all those who refused or neglected to manifest a like siacarity and earnestness (by also devoting a tenth part of theii* wealth, as they are now required to do). Thus it would naturally follow, as foretold, ^ Then shall ye return, and discern between tfai r^Ateous and the wicked, between him that serveth God, and bimthftir serveth him not." For tbosa who f^mdliMe^ **m^Sltt^4l^ tbeit wealtii) at tbis time, would ba i«oQ|sized at orce by God sad ma as "tbambteow" 1^0 sixfolpr "served God," and (b^ M fkwur ▼jtb God fB^ p(^^ ^ilj^ would prosper e3^<}Mii||;f, if^ X. ^ \ «♦* 4 ■• ■ ! t '% t.f %twU nwitUMuJly aoquiM more and more wOilth, to me wieeiy 9ii|t|ifafEk&ilj in adyancing "ih» Kingdom of God " upon earth. Wfaui'lbofle who should now refuse to bring '^ all their tithes " (oi* ^ tanth part of their wealth) would be recognized at once by CMA^Wkd man, as *' the wictked " (who refuse to acknowledge their dl>Ugati(His to our Creator, or their duty to our fellow-man) and 5ia|B^||^ently. as being simply " hypooritee/' should they still olaim ^ ^*iirTe God ;" and as siinply ** brutish/^ should they ignore oir ijb^Creat»>r, and negleot. to render Him due ?espect and , J^^ Moreover, M aJl inic^ "hypocrites," or "wicked" and **'liilM>b" people, will hence&rUi be utterly unable to impose ^ upon the world, so as to appear "^righteous " (as they might hare appeared hitherto) they will continually be tormented by their own dCJiidtoiiees, that they may be urged to act more worthily, and tiUv^i^Iy earn the repose of a good conscience, as well as the reijpeet of their fellowmen. Should any ask, how the many thousands or millions of dol- lars received as " tithes," may be expended to the best advantage in introducing and establishing the predicted ** Kingdom of Gkxl " upon earth 1 1 reply, that it must be arranged so that Palestine may somehow peaceably fall into our possession, that we may b^gin to make that country a worthy capital for the whole world, and the seat of the Supreme International Tribunal, that- it may become the glory of all nations. Any earnest effort in this dtneotioi^ wiUi an abundance of wealth for the purpose, would iniiiBjiviil^i^ the effect of arousing the millions of poverfy- mViik^ Jews in Bussia, and elsewhere, so that they would realize ^^ the time has now arrived at last for the fulfilment of the Piyli^y inspired prophecies in reference to their ultimate restora- tJ^:;l(Qi ^eiir own country ; and the com])aratively few wealthy Jefltl would doubtless also realize at once that they couldn't (^Idnsuitently with any reasonable self-respect, or regard for the |6od already been during the ptuit mghteen centuries,) but many thousiands of the cleigy, throu^ghoni Christendom generally, will also soon find themselves cob^lle^ to accept and communicate a much higher degfee of sp'iiittifiijr *Might" and knowledge, than they have hitherto accepted a^i^' communicated'; or they will otherwise inevitably beoomi^ sttbject' to the poverty and contempt which will naturally fall to md lot of those "A ho shall still persistently refuse to take advantage of the great spiritual 'Might," and knowledge, which must now prevai]| during the coming era of "the Kingdom of God'* upon earth. These two important forces, the Jewish people, and. the educated clergy of Christendom, will providentially help much to advance " the Kingdom of God " upon e^th ; for the miltoiB of poor Jews, who so greatly need a home and country of their own* wiU" naturally supply much ol ^the requisite earnestness at^seal'; (the few wealthy Jews affardintg much of the requijdte ma|^^ hsAp ;) and the istany thouiands of iduoated clergy in QhliiliidQniy as in lone ■r'rjf ; ji"l '.r ♦ f t 'I '» who ih»]l now be compelled to aocept end oointnntiiofcte tke oolning spiiitcuil *'lighf of eternal tradi, which aooompaniea '*the Kingdom of God" upon-earl^, (under the psnalty of themielves beooDjing ■uhjeot to noverty and contempt, Bhd in heathendom (in contradistinctioh to Christendom) and modern progress, railroads, steamships, and telegmphs^ etc^ will rapidly be extended over heathendom gene- rally^ as well as ^ver Christendom; that the, whole worid may thus become practically but as one great natioi^ under or^ General Government, which will be in no. way adverse to the most perfect local government possible everywhere upon earth; asit will tend rather to protect local ^vernments firom encroaohm^^ upon Uieir respective rights and privileges, Ae it is indisputably Evident (from what I have here stated, as well as from what I have repeatedly stated in fbrmer oommnni- eations) that the thne for "the Kingdom of God*' upon earth has now certainly come; why shouldn't a few of the members of the House of Commons, and of the Senate of Canada, immediatdy deTdte <* allctheir tithes," or the tenth part of their wealth, for ti^e purpose of atouoe'intxvduoisg " the Elingdom of God" upon earth, with all its incalculable advantages to ^emselves in particular, ilkid the whole world in generall Some individuals somewhere must very soon take the initiative in this matter.

If it be farther asked, why should the people di Canada (mdre than any bth^ people) bo expected or required to take the initia- tive in ihiz mtttt^t'? I answer, becanse Canada is <^ ehief ebt6iiy or' branch of the greatest Empire in the wdrld, and it is to the branches we naturally look for manifestations of a Tigonrous vitality and growth. Moreover, the man who has already worked " alone " for a whole generation of more than thirty-s^ven years, in favor of " the Kingdom of God '* upon earth, is a native of Canada, why then siionldn't a few others in Canada be found now to second his efforts in the best possible cause ? And as this man, more than thirty-seven years ago, gladly dispossesBed him- self of what little property be had (about fiizteen hundred dollars worth) that he might give himself up wholly and Unreearvedly to the work : Why ahould it appear to be so utterly fanpossible now, for a few others to devote but a tenth f(^ ofthehr wealth, dhr^etly to the introduction and advancement x>f "the ffingdom of God " uf^on earth t ^or now thb time for effective action is oeHainly coMe at htst, and there is no lons^er a possiMe weary waitbg m thirty or forty years more. *• All the tithes " (or the teftth |>!art of the wealth of those earnestly and sincerely in ftvonr «f ^ dominion i^ ^'caeatcf and truth .
