THE OBJECTIVE. 
 
 Our fighting troops in France and Flan- 
 ders, after several years warfare and at the cost 
 of many thousands of lives, learned that a limit- 
 ed objective properly planned was the one thing 
 necessary before leading troops ^^over the top." 
 
 This lesson remains seared somewhere in 
 my interior economy; and before leading you 
 across what might be called a **No Man's Land,'' 
 it might be well to explain that the objective at 
 present in view is to cause you business men of 
 the U.S.A., citizens of the greatest republic the 
 world ever has seen, or ever will see, to look into 
 some facts of history that in so many unmis- 
 takable ways seem to connect your country with 
 the promises made by God through the mouths of 
 His prophets several thousand years ago, fore- 
 telling the great people you were to become as 
 descendants of Manasseh, the eldest son of 
 Joseph, whom you will remember as the food con- 
 troller who saved not only Egypt and his Hebrew 
 brethi'en but the world at large, for it is stated, 
 **The famine was over all the face of the 
 
 Tii 
 
viii THE OBJECTIVE 
 
 earth. . . . And all countries came into Egypt 
 to Joseph for to buy corn.'' 
 
 It is hoped with this limited objective in 
 view to secure your interest and goodwill suffici- 
 ently to cause you to study the subject, though I 
 must advise you before you start that, when you 
 study it, you're a ^^gonner"! The theme is so 
 captivating, the side lines so many, and every one 
 so interesting that your golf or other pursuits are 
 apt to be neglected while you delve for data as to 
 what is going to be the outcome of the present un- 
 settled condition of Europe, of America, and the 
 whole world, because it is all foretold in Bible 
 history, which I like to call ffis-story, i.e., God's 
 story. The dime novels of your youthful days 
 were no more thrilling than is this subject to every 
 man who has looked into it carefully; and the 
 more and the deeper you delve, the richer the 
 plunder. 
 
 This limited objective, therefore, is only 
 to provide you with a jumping-oif spot or bridge- 
 head for the real attack you will make when you 
 have absorbed the fact that God selected America 
 for you and foretold through the mouths of the 
 prophets of old, ''the people" and the ''great 
 people" you were to become. 
 
 When away from home, you speak of the 
 U.S.A. as God's own country; and you do well, 
 for in Psalms 60: we read: ''God hath spoken 
 
THE OBJECTIVE ix 
 
 in his holiness. . . . Manasseh is Mine,'' and 
 the U.S.A. is Manasseh. Yon and yonr country 
 are His, as I hope you will agree, if you have the 
 patience to wade through the following pages. 
 
 It surely will not make you think less of 
 your country to know that the Creator in His 
 plan for this world selected America for you to 
 grow up in and become the freedom-loving peo- 
 ple you are. It will not make you think less of 
 your national inheritance and the Anglo-Saxon- 
 Celtic-British stock from which you sprang to 
 learn that God foretold, through the mouths of 
 His prophets several thousand years ago, that 
 you were to break away and set up in business 
 for yourselves and from a little one you would 
 grow into a great nation; and that you would, 
 like Brother John Bull, be invincible in war ; and 
 that He would give you both the wealth of the 
 mine, the forest, the sea, and the wealth of the 
 land, — all of which has made Young America the 
 wonder of the world, and has thus enabled you to 
 help do His work with wealth at your command. 
 
 Grod also laid down the specifications for 
 the job you were to help to do in this world: in 
 freeing the slaves, in breaking all yokes, and 
 in helping to carry His Word and good works 
 to all nations together with that British love of 
 freedom and justice that forms a part of your 
 inheritance from your forefathers.

 in those days) and my young form darkened 
 school doors no more. 
 
 I also soon recognized that this was essen- 
 tially a religious question ; and while I have been 
 accused of many things, up to date I have never 
 heard of my being accused of being pious or 
 religious, as I have never felt good enough to 
 join a church, though I once had the compliment 
 passed by a very reverend gentleman asking me 
 to be a sidesman, deacon or churchwarden, I 
 don^t remember which. But I was not for having 
 any, though I attend service every Sunday, rain 
 or shine. 
 
 Amid these discouragements, the calls of 
 business with a turn-over of two million dollars, 
 and the thronging duties that fall to one's por- 
 tion in a big city, absorbed a good deal of my 
 steam, so that when I reached home in the even- 
 ing, it was slippers, a grate fire, a game of bridge, 
 and a growing family that took my attention ere 
 the feathers wooed me thitherward. 
 
 My conscience or the aforementioned 
 hunch, however, never lost its grip but kept 
 urging me on despite the numerous times I waved 
 it aside with many a *Ho-morrow perhaps,'' or 
 *^next week." 
 
 Sitting one day in the Club after luncheon, 
 talking to a young friend of about sixty-five or 
 seventy summers and an equal number of winters, 
 mostly hard ones I should judge, we chanced on 
 
FOREWORD xiii 
 
 this subject and I unloaded some of the following 
 data off my chest. 
 
 Turning to me with real passion in his 
 voice, he said, **I would give anything in the 
 world that I possess if I had your faith!'' 
 
 ^*Say, Tom, it's not that costly! Just in- 
 vest a few dollars in some books I '11 give you a list 
 of, and I'll bet you cannot come to any other 
 conclusion than I have." 
 
 Turning to me with real earnestness, he 
 said, 
 
 **The world is just crying out for the 
 faith that you have ; and you would be doing more 
 real service and good than you could estimate' 
 if you would publish what you have just told me, 
 as you have a way of saying things that make 
 them stick in one's mind. You would be doing a 
 real service to humanity in renewing the faith 
 that we were taught by our mothers in the years 
 long ago. We need it sadly." 
 
 This talk stirred me to renewed action ; so, 
 here I am with my finger in the ink-pot under 
 the urge of my young friend, whose opinion and 
 judgment I value highly, trying, and trying hard, 
 to write a book that will show you the everyday 
 road to God's Kingdom that is right here on 
 earth. You don't have to die to get it as it is 
 part of your inheritance while you are alive and 
 going strong. 
 
 Having served this notice of what to ex- 
 
xiv FOREWORD 
 
 pect, I seem to have cleared my conscience, be- 
 cause, if you delve further into these pages, its 
 your own funeral, as you have had fair warning 
 that I am far removed from being properly 
 equipped or suited to the job of bookwriting. 
 Think of it rather as a series of letters from a 
 friend direct to you. I'm appalled at the num- 
 ber of capital *^I's" in the foregoing, but it 
 seems impossible to dodge them, due doubtless 
 to my inexperience and not knowing how. 
 
 I really have little that is original to oifer 
 you ; but, during the last thirty-seven years, I have 
 read over 250 books and pamphlets on this sub- 
 ject and the data contained therein has been ab- 
 sorbed during those years. My test of every book 
 has been to check up its statements or data by the 
 Bible, and my father might have been from 
 Missouri, instead of from Glasgow, Scotland, by 
 the way they had to * ^ show me ! " 
 
 It is impossible, therefore, to quote all the 
 authors whose material I have absorbed, but when 
 I make a statement you can bank on its being 
 based on the good horse sense that you apply to 
 your business daily, and you can be sure that 
 it is all truth as it is given me to see it. 
 
 Furthermore, a book like this is only of 
 as much good to you as the use you make of it; 
 and if you desire to get anything out of it, it 
 mil have to be studied and checked up, not merely 
 read for entertainment. I always read with a 
 
FOREWORD XV 
 
 soft pencil in my hand. For every opinion ex- 
 pressed that I cannot see or do not believe, I put 
 a question mark in the margin. I tick off the 
 things I agree with or wish to refer to again. I 
 turn down the corner of pages I wish to refer to 
 hurriedly, and I can glance through a book a 
 second time from cover to cover in half an hour. 
 I would ash as a favor that you do likeivise luitJi 
 this hook, because to really get it, you will have 
 to study it over many times to absorb most of the 
 truth it contains. Question anything you cannot 
 see or do not believe; heavily pencil any items 
 that strike you as good stuff; and don't be afraid 
 of digging into the Bible to do a bit of mining 
 on your o^vn account, as not one-half of it as yet 
 is properly understood by most people. 
 
 You do your business six days a week on 
 the basis of taking other men's word for details 
 and things you have not time or inclination to go 
 into or figure for yourself. I would ask that 
 you do the same with me as you do with your sub- 
 ordinates and place the same confidence in my 
 judgment and accept my word for everything I 
 put do^vn here until you finish the book and until 
 you find me in error, because its facts are as true 
 as the fact that you have a head on your shoulders. 
 
 As you may be undecided whether to accept 
 the foregoing suggestion, I may mention that my 
 bank backs my word and judgment to the tune of 
 between a quarter and a half million dollars over-

 draft each season and they, as you know, have the 
 habit of looking into the innermost recesses of 
 one's make-up ere they loosen to the above tune. 
 Mention is made of this, not in a boastful 
 manner, nor to encourage you to seek a loan, but 
 solely because I think it well you should know 
 that my head is screwed on shoulders as straight 
 and as tight as is the ordinary business man's 
 who has to rustle among his competitors daily for 
 his provender in the marts of a large city.

 CHAPTER 1. 
 
 Thirty years ago I was toiling in one of the 
 large cities of Wisconsin, U.S.A., second in com- 
 mand of a roadbuilding company. 
 
 My chief was a young man of my own age, 
 as fat as a match and measuring six feet two 
 inches in his nightie (in those days pyjamas 
 were not standard equipment for roadbuilders). 
 This young man was a down east Yankee of, I 
 think, the Mayflower extraction, with a strong 
 belief and hope that the U.S.A. would finally 
 float the Stars and Stripes from the north pole 
 to Panama. Now, while I respected him muchly 
 for his many charming qualities of head and 
 heart, we, nevertheless, used to split hard and 
 fast on the Yankee flag proposition ever floating 
 over Canada, for, be it known, I was a ^^Canook'' 
 born of Scotch and English parents : on my 
 mother's side descended from those fighting war- 
 rior Normans Avhom AVilliam the Conqueror led 
 into Britain, and on my father's, from the low- 
 land Scotch who always were bonnie fighters, 
 - §

 wherever the cause was good — or where they 
 thought it was, which was the same thing to them. 
 I had a strong working belief — namely, 
 the Anglo-Israel belief that the Anglo-Saxon- 
 Celtic people headed hj John Bull and Brother 
 Jonathan were God's chosen peoples with whom 
 He was going to subdue the heathen and whom He 
 was going to use as His battle axe and as His 
 weapons of war, to bring about His Kingdom 
 on earth, according to Jeremiah 51 : 20 : 
 
 "Thou [Israel] art my battle axe and weapons 
 of war : for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, 
 and with thee will I destroy kingdoms" [in and 
 through Israel should His Kingdom be manefest on 
 earth] . 
 
 These peoples were to be invincible in war. Their 
 mission was to free the slaves and the oppressed, 
 to bind up the broken, to break every yoke, to 
 keep God's laws, to carry the Gospel to the 
 heathen, to settle the waste places of the earth, 
 etc., and in this way make manifest God's King- 
 dom right in America, Canada, Britain, and the 
 other Anglo-Saxon nations. 
 
 Ferrar Fenton's Version in modern Eng- 
 lish of Isaiah 58 : 6 and 7 reads : 
 
 "Is not this the Fast I approve ? — 
 
 To free those who are wrongfully bound? 
 
 And to loosen your slaves from their yoke? 
 
 And to seek out and free the oppressed ? 
 
 And that you should remove every wrong? 
 
 And to give to the famishing food ? 
 
 And poor wanderers to bring to your house? 
 
 And those whom you see naked to clothe ? 
 
 And to hide not yourself from your kind ?"

 I had been inoculated with this belief in 
 1884 and it had what the doctors would call a 
 good take; but, unlike the measles, flu and a 
 few other odds and ends that have come my way 
 before and since and left me none the worse for 
 their visits, this Anglo-Saxon-Celtic invasion of 
 microbes in my system has grown until now I 
 believe if I was scratched anywhere, I would ooze 
 Bible prophecies concerning Israel and her 
 future. 
 
 When my slim chief talked about God's 
 country (the U.S.A.), I agreed that it really was 
 God's country and belabored him with what the 
 prophets said about America. I furthermore gave 
 him books on the subject printed in 1879, which, 
 by the way, predicted the taking of Egypt ; — as 
 was accomplished in 1882; — also the taking of 
 Palestine, by Ephraim Israel (England) ** doing 
 in'' Edom (Turkey) ; the handing of the Holy 
 Land to the Jews for a national home under 
 Britain; the absolute break-up of Eussia; and 
 many other things that were based on the Saxon- 
 Celtic people alone fitting into the scheme as God's 
 chosen people Israel — Israel later being divided 
 into two separate Hebrew nations: Judah being 
 the Jews, and Levi and the other ten tribes form- 
 ing the nation Israel, which was lost to most his- 
 torians. 
 
 Times change; and men with them. My 
 early chief drifted to that big city of skyscrapers 
 
6 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 — New York — and became the father of a lovely 
 family of boys and girls, covered his bones with 
 numerous layers of surplus tissue until a two 
 hundred pound scale would not scale him, and 
 the war found him general-manager of one of 
 America's big trusts turning out munitions at a 
 rate to surfeit his shareholders with British and 
 French gold taken in exchange for materials for 
 the stuffing of high explosive shell, etc. 
 
 One day in the spring of 1918, in a war- 
 ridden section of France, my batman brought to 
 my billet a letter that I at once recognized as 
 the handwriting of my boss of about thirty years 
 before. Congratulating me on my work, he wound 
 up his epistle by asking how the war fitted into the 
 ideas that I used to bethump him with in the 
 early nineties. What did I think would be the 
 outcome of the war! In replying, I pointed out 
 that when we had been duly punished for our na- 
 tional sins, we were as certain to win through as 
 the sun was to rise. Israel was told that when 
 they obeyed not God's commandments and God's 
 laws they would be punished. And how would 
 they be punished ? With the stripes of men. By 
 the Assyrian coming down on them like a wolf 
 on the fold. The Assyrians took Israel captive 
 starting in the year 741 B.C. and finishing in the 
 year 676 B.C., thereby fulfilling what the prophet 
 Isaiah had predicted, — that in seventy-five years 
 Ephraim should be broken and not a people. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 7 
 
 They were scattered among the Assyrians across 
 the Euphrates. At that time the Assyrians cut 
 down IsraePs vines and fruit trees, a thing for- 
 bidden in the Bible. Prussia is modern Assyria, 
 and when the Huns retired to the Hindenburg line 
 in the spring of 1917, they ran true to type. In the 
 Bapaume sector they cut down every vine and 
 fruit tree in every French garden for fifty miles, 
 and many of these trees came out in bloom weeks 
 later as they lay murdered on the ground. It was 
 one of the saddest sights I saw at the Front. Wil- 
 fully to saw down fruit trees that were of no 
 use to them or to us was fouling the usages of 
 war. But Germany was out to maim France for 
 life, and their poisoning wells and murdering fruit 
 trees was a small item in the long list of barbari- 
 ties and wilful premeditated destructions. 
 
 Though at the time of writing to my friend 
 we had been driven back on Amiens and *^had 
 our backs to the wall, ' ^ I wrote that when we had 
 received our due punishment for our neglect to 
 clean up Turkey for their slaughtering of the 
 Armenians in Gladstone's time; for our neglect 
 to fulfil our word to help Denmark when Germany 
 stole Schleswig-Holstein from her; for our neg- 
 lect to help France in 1870 ; for our other national 
 sins ; and for our neglect of God ; — ^then we would 
 win through because we are the everlasting king- 
 dom, the Kingdom of Israel, spoken of by Jere- 
 miah the prophet. 
 
8 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 "For I am with thee [Israel], saith the Lord, to 
 save thee: though I make a full end of all nations 
 whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make a 
 full end of thee: but I will correct thee in measure, 
 and will not leave thee altogether unpunished/' 
 (Jer. 30: 11., also by the Prophet Daniel, chapter 2). 
 
 I had promised my wife in June, 1918, to 
 eat Christmas dinner, 1918, with her and the 
 kiddies in Canada with the war all over, and I 
 ventured the opinion to my friend that we would 
 be likely to have Germany licked by August, 1918. 
 
 The newspapers of my home to^vn pub- 
 lished this opinion in June of 1918, because the 
 real soldiers on the British staffs then said we 
 were in for two more years of war. 
 
 The mills of God grind slowly, but they 
 grind exceeding sure. Doubtless Gladstone 
 thought he was saving lives by not cleaning up 
 the ^ * Sick Man of Europe ' ' when all Christendom 
 cried out at the Armenian murders of that day. 
 But what was the direct result of his saving the 
 Turks? The hundreds of thousands of British 
 and their Allies killed and wounded at Kut, 
 Gallipoli, etc., by Turkey. If Britain had per- 
 formed her national duty then, there would have 
 been no Vigorous Turkey to assist Germany in 
 1914. What did it cost Britain for this national 
 political weakness in wounded, in lives lost, and 
 treasure spent during those five awful years of 
 carnage in Europe's cockpit — Flanders and Nor-

 thern P^rance ? If G ermany had not been allowed 
 to take Scheleswig-Holstein and had not been 
 given Heligoland (given to Britain by the Creator 
 as a waste place), there would have been no Kiel 
 Canal ; and if, in addition, Germany had not been 
 allowed to overrun France in 1870, this last vfar 
 would have been finished in pei'haps six months 
 or a year. I believe it pays nations as well as 
 business men to do the right thing at the right 
 time. 
 
 God gave Israel a world commission down 
 through the ages, to break every yoke and lift 
 every burden. But the American or United 
 States section of Israel broke this law of God by 
 placing yokes on negro men and women and 
 making them slaves? With what result! Did 
 they get away with it? For a time, just as 
 Britain did with saving Turkey; but the mills of 
 God were grinding out His judgment on this sec- 
 tion of His chosen people, and that wrong had to 
 be righted. Howl Again by the stripes of men. 
 South against North, and your President Lincoln 
 finally said, ** Slavery must be and will be abol- 
 ished and these United States will not be divided 
 in twain, half slavery and half free. ' ' 
 
 When the tribe of Manasseh, U.S.A., were 
 in Canaan, they were in two parts, as divided by 
 Joshua: east of the Jordan and west of the Jor- 
 dan. It is co-incident that, when they were in 
 
10 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 America, 2,500 years later, the Dixie line divided 
 them again into two parts. North and South. 
 
 God raised up Moses to unite and lead 
 the united states or tribes of Israel out of bond- 
 age in Egypt. So, I believe, did he raise up 
 Abraham Lincoln, Man of God, born of Puritan 
 stock from Britain, the great leader of Manasseh, 
 the United States of America — that ^' great peo- 
 ple'' the prophets had predicted they were to 
 become. With what wise and f arseeing judgment 
 did Lincoln work towards unity, to win the war 
 and establish peace ! 
 
 Eead John Wesley HilPs Abraham Lin- 
 coln Man of God, with Fore wards by Major-Gen- 
 eral Leonard Wood, David Lloyd George, and

 tribulations toward peace and unity. 
 
 Lincoln quotations herein are all taken 
 from Mr. Hill's book. If ever a man placed re- 
 liance on God for actual everyday performance 
 right on American soil, in answer to prayer, that 
 man was your martyred President, Abraham Lin- 
 coln. Lincoln believed that God answered prayer 
 for America ; and after the bitter disappointments 
 and agonies of the dark days of 1863, after 
 Fredericksburg had fallen, when treason stalked 
 through the land, he issued the following pro- 
 clamation, March 30, 1863 : 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 11 
 
 ^'Whereas, T]ie Senate of the United States, de- 
 voutly recognizing the supreme authority and just 
 government of Almighty God in all the affairs of men 
 and nations, has by a resolution requested the Presi- 
 dent to designate and set apart a day for National 
 prayer and humiliation, and whereas, it is the duty 
 of Nations as well as of men to own their dependence 
 upon the overruling power of God, to confess their 
 sins and transgression in humble sorrow, yet with 
 assured hope that genuine repentence will lead to 
 mercy and pardon, and to recognize the sublime truth 
 announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven hy all 
 history. 'That those Nations only are blessed whose 
 God is the Lord. 
 
 "And, inasmuch as we know that by His divine 
 law nations, like individuals, are subjected to punish- 
 ments, and chastisements in this world, may we not 
 justly fear that the awful calamity of civil war which 
 now desolates the land may be but a punishment 
 inflicted upon us for our presumptions sins to the 
 needful end of our National reformation as a whole 
 people ! 
 
 "We have been the recipients of the choicest 
 bounties of heaven; we have been preserved these 
 many years in peace and prosperity; we have grown 
 in number, wealth, and power as no other Nation has 
 ever grown. But we have forgotten God. 
 
 "We have forgotten the gracious hand which 
 preserved us in peace and multiplied and enriched 
 and strengthened us, and Ave have vainly imagined, 
 in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these bles- 
 sings were produced by some superior wisdom and 
 virtue of our own. Intoxicated with broken suc- 
 cess we have become too self-sufficient to feel the 
 necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too 
 proud to pray to the God who made us. It be- 
 hooves us, then, to humble ourselves before the 
 offended power, to confess our National sins, and 
 to pray for clemency and forgiveness.

 "Now, therefore, in compliance with the request, 
 and fully concurring in the views of the Senate, I 
 do by this my proclamation designate and set 
 apart Thursday the 30th day of April, 1863, as a 
 dlay of National humiliation, to abstain on that day 
 from their ordinary secular pursuits, and to unite 
 ill their several places of public worship and devoted 
 to the humble discharge of the religious duties proper 
 to that solemn occasion. 
 
 "All this being done in sincerity and truth let 
 us then rest humbly in the hope authorized by the 
 divine teachings, that the united cry of the Nation 
 will be heard on high and answered with blessings 
 no less than the pardon of our National sins and the 
 restoration of our now divided and suffering country 
 to its former happy condition of unity and peace/' 
 
 These prayers of a nation and of its Presi- 
 dent were answered as were also the prayers of 
 General George Washington for his people and 
 his army in 1776-1799.* And Lincoln took many 
 many occasions to unite the nation in thanksgiv- 
 ing to the Almighty for the success the Almighty 
 brought to their arms. 
 
 May 9, 1864, when General Grant w^as

 *Read George Washington, the Christian, by William J. 
 Johnson and see how absoliiteely this Father of his Country de- 
 pended upon prayer to the mighty God of Battles during those 
 trying times at Valley Forge. See his prayer on page 33: "Holy 
 and eternal Lord God who are the King of Heaven and the 
 Watchman of Israel that never slumbereth or sleepeth. What 
 shell we render unto thee for aU thy benefits? because thou hast 
 inclined thine ears unto me therefore wiU I call on thee as long 
 as I live.**

 attacks and following the bloody battles of the 
 Wilderness, Lincoln issued the following: 
 
 "To the friends of Union and Liberty: Enough 
 is known of army operations within the last five 
 days, to claim a special gratitudle to God, while what 
 remains undone demands our most sincere prayer 
 to and reliance upon Him, without Whom all our 
 efforts is in vain. I recommend that all patriots at 
 their homes, in their place of public worship, and 
 wherever they may be, unite in common thanksgiving 
 and prayer to Almighty God." 
 
 Lincoln fully believed that our Creator 
 was keeping watch over the Eepublic and Lin- 
 coln was right; God had promised His people 
 Israel that He would be with them wherever 
 they went and When they sought Him, they would 
 surely find Him. ^^ Yielding and accommodating 
 in nonessentials he was inflexibly firm on a prin- 
 ciple or position deliberately taken.'' 
 
 "Let us have faith that Right makes 
 Might,'' he said, ''and in that faith let us to the 
 end dare to do our duty as we understand it.'' 
 
 Lincoln was called to see that God's law 
 was carried out in the country selected by the 
 Creator for the thirteenth tribe of Israel (Man- 
 asseh) to inhabit. He strove to bring unity and 
 law — to make God's law, and His command to 
 break every yoke and lift every burden, the law 
 of America from the northernmost point in the 
 North to the southern end of the South. 
 
 What did it cost America for not knowing 
 
14 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 their identity and God's plan for running this 
 new world, of w^hich we are the heirs? The 
 Encyclopedia Britannica puts the Union losses 
 in killed at 359,528 men, the losses of the South 
 as many, and in addition over 280,000 in the 
 North and South died in a few years as a result 
 of wounds, hardships, etc. That is, roughly, one 
 million of your finest men killed, and by 1879, it 
 had cost your Government in cash, including pen- 
 sions, $6,190,000,000. ^^Who is blind, but my ser- 
 vant [Israel]!" 
 
 Where is the financier to-day who would 
 think that America's investment in slaves turned 
 out to be a paying proposition? Yet, Americans 
 to-day are making similar investments that will 
 all have to be paid for by the lives of your choice- 
 est men and by billions of money, because you 
 are blind to your identity and to the Creator's 
 plan for your national guidance ; and, as a nation, 
 your elected representatives are breaking God's 
 divine commands, and your children and mine 
 will pay in full measure for your neglect and my 
 neglect for not seeing that our representatives 
 carry out the Creator's commission, given to Ills 
 people Israel, for ive Celto-Saxons are Israel plus 
 all believers who accept Christ and so are grafted 
 into Israel's vine. 
 
 When I see some of our enthusiastic 
 people who so firmly believe in the League of 
 Nations as a guarantee against war, I turn me to 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 15 
 
 the greatest history (His-story, God's story) of 
 the greatest people the world has ever possessed, 
 the Bible, and I find ^^ Armageddon *' is yet to be 
 fought; and ere it is fought, comes a time of 
 trouble, such a time of trouble as the world has 
 never seen before nor ever will see, *Hhe time of 
 Jacob's trouble'' — and we Canadians, Yanks and 
 British are all of Jacob's seed. But at the end 
 we shall finally be saved out of it. 
 
 The allwise Creator laid down His plan 
 through the mouths of His prophets and later 
 through His son, our Lord, for the handling of all 
 world problems by His executive nation Israel, 
 whom Christ came to redeem and of which the 
 church was a part. ^^Thou, Israel art my ser- 
 vant." **With thee will I break in pieces the 
 nations." Did the church ever smash nations'? 
 Yet ministers claim the church is Israel! *^He 
 cast out the heathen also before them." *'I will 
 subdue thine enemies." ^'They that strive with 
 thee shall perish." Also ^*Be ye not unequally 
 yoked together." 
 
 Then after we won the war, along comes 
 our politicians and yours at Versailles; and in- 
 stead of taking the allwise Creator's plan for 
 peace and world progress as their basis, with- 
 out publicity, at any rate, asking guidance 
 of God through prayer, such as George Washing- 
 ton and Abraham Lincoln always asked for and 
 received^ these men start in without any public 
 
16 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 recognition of the almighty Creator, Ruler, and 
 Upholder of this universe of His and presume to 
 lay down laws and rules to guide God's world 
 to peace and prosperity — and look at the results 
 to-day! Many of the best people among all na- 
 tions approve: but, gentlemen, it is foredoomed 
 to failure. **Be ye not equally yoked together'' 
 is as applicable to-day as the first day that it was 
 spoken. ' ' Say ye not, A confederacy, to all them 
 to whom this people shall say, A confederacy; 
 neither fear ye their fear, nor be afraid. Santify 
 the Lord of hosts Himself; and let Him be your 
 fear." (Isa. 8:12, 13.) 
 
 The men who think that they can yoke to- 
 gether forty — or is it forty-five divergent out- 
 fits? — ^with ideals as opposite as the north pole is 
 from the south, and that this aggregation can 
 work justly and bring in peace and righteousness 
 when the workers of iniquity get among them 
 have got another think or two coming their way 
 ere they see daylight and peace. 
 
 The allwise Creator, who saw the end from 
 the beginning, laid down an entirely different 
 plan, which, when acknowledged and accepted by 
 Britain, America, and their offspring, will cause 
 a league of the Anglo-Saxon-Celt nations thie 
 world over, and they, having the same language, 
 ideas, and ideals of justice and truth, and being 
 God's chosen company or commonwealth of na- 
 tions, will bring about what the Creator has 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 17 
 
 ordained from the beginning — righteous peace. 
 But first Armageddon will have to be fought and 
 won, and America will in that day fight side by 
 side with their brother, Ephraim of the Isles, 
 John Bull, and the other Anglo-Saxon nations 
 from the uttermost parts of the earth. India, 
 Arabia, and Japan will be with us and again we 
 will win, as we did the last war, through divine 
 help. Then and not till then can the Armstrongs, 
 the Vickers Co., the Krupps, the United States 
 Steel Corporation, and all the other armament 
 makers the world over scrap their armament de- 
 partments, because war will be over and done 
 with for a thousand years and, in the ordinary 
 course of events, if my reckoning is correct, 
 Charles M. Schwab will be on hand to do his 
 scrapping for his company. Perhaps he may 
 take advantage of this advance information and 
 get his plans matured and ready for the coming 
 change. Stranger things have happened. 
 
 When the world is in the melting pot, what 
 is it worth in dollars and cents, and even in the 
 depreciated pounds, shillings and pence, to know 
 what is on the cards for the future of Britain and 
 America. 
 
 Well, it is all to be had in the cheapest 
 book published in the world, our Bible, and this 
 screed is written for the purpose of giving you a 
 key to ^^ God's living Word*' which has become 
 almost a dead word in the nominal Christian of 
 
18 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 to-day, because unenlightened ministers of the 
 Gospel have switched us on to a siding with a 
 dead end, though our ticket calls for a Pullman 
 on the fastest train operating on the main lines 
 of the continental through express. 
 
 We think highly of a stockbroker who can 
 foresee the turn of the market a few days or 
 weeks ahead, in time to let us in or out, as we 
 happen to want. What should we think of One 
 who over 2500 years ago foretold that Ephraim, 
 Israel (the English) would ^'doin'' Turkey, or 
 Edom, as she did in 1917 just at the end of the 
 predicted 1335 lunar years of the Turkish calen- 
 dar (and so help end the desolation standing in 
 the Holy Place — see Daniel 12) ; who foretold 
 that Judah and Israel would again possess their 
 possessions in the Holy Land which extends from 
 the river Nile to the Euphrates; and who fore- 
 told the earlier taking of the Ten Lost Tribes 
 captive by the Assyrians, and later the scattering 
 and sifting of them among all the nations yet not 
 a grain of the seed should he lost. Ezekiel said: 
 
 "Thus said the Lord God; Although I have cast 
 them [Israel] far off among the heathen, and although 
 I have scattered them among the countries yet will I 
 be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where 
 they shall come/' (Ezek. 11:16.) 
 
 This statement could not refer to the King- 
 dom of Judah or the broken-off branch of Judah, 
 i.e., the Jews. They were not carried captive by 
 Nebuchadnezzar, nor was Jerusalem destroyed 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 19 
 
 until seven years after this prediction was made, 
 so that it must refer to the northern kingdom of 
 Israel, the Ten Tribes that had been carried 
 captive by Assyria 123 years previously. 
 
 God has been **as a sanctuary'^ to all 
 peoples who have gathered into the British Isles 
 from 1600 B.C. From this gathering together in 
 the *4sles of the west*' one branch was to break 
 away (U.S.A.), because the way was too strait 
 and they must have more freedom to practice 
 their religion in the way they desired, and break- 
 ing away, they were to become a great people 
 who, with Mother Britain, were to be a blessing 
 to all nations of the earth. 
 
 **The children which thou [Israel] shalt 
 have, after thou hast lost the other [the U.S.A. 
 breaking away] , shall say in thine ears. The place 
 is too strait [too small] for me: give place to me 
 that I may dwell." (Isa. 49: 20.) And from 
 Mother Britain then started those people who 
 built up these wonderful young nations, Canada, 
 Australia, New Zealand, Newfoundland, South 
 Africa, etc. 
 
 The time of treading down the Holy 
 Places in Palestine by the Turk having ceased, 
 the time of the Gentiles is finished and we can 
 tell just how far along we are and can estimate 
 when, according to the prophets, the other trials 
 due us are coming, and when that awful day of 
 God Almighty, ** Armageddon '', is to come 
 
20 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 wherein Israel is specifically warned: *^ Prepare 
 ye for battle. ' ' As yet our politicians and leaders 
 and, I am sorry to say, our preachers are blind 
 as bats towards this most essential leadership 
 of the prophetic teachings confirmed by Jesus 
 when he was on earth, for our guidance. 
 
 "Jerusalem shall he trodden down of the Gentiles 
 [how long?], until the times of the Gentiles be ful- 
 filled/^ (Luke 21:24.) 
 
 "Blindness in part is happened to Israel [for 
 how long?], until the fulness of the Gentiles be come 
 in.'' (Rom. 11:25.) 
 
 Well, Jerusalen having ceased to be trod- 
 den down by the Turk (Gentiles), the time is now 
 ripe for the Americans to cease their blindness 
 towards this most essential question for your 
 national guidance. In other words, get on to 
 your job ! See who you are, and act according to 
 God's plans and specifications. 
 
 Most religious teachers are strong on data 
 for the next world, quite overlooking the fact that 
 two-thirds of the Old Testament and much of the 
 New deals with prophecies and instructions for 
 Israel, to be used and fulfilled in this everyday 
 old world of ours here and now, where God's 
 Kingdom is and has been during the last three 
 thousands years. When Jesus was on earth, he 
 said, **I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of 
 the house of Israel. (Matt. 15:24.) If the 
 Father of all sent Christ **but unto the lost sheep 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 21 
 
 of the house of Israel/' as our Lord told the 
 people He did, it would seem rather important 
 that our spiritual leaders and parsons should 
 get a hump on and hasten to find these select but 
 lost people, because no man, I care not how high 
 he be in church or state, can properly interpret 
 the Bible unless he can locate the nation Israel 
 (as distinct from Judah), with which two-thirds 
 of the Bible deals; and don't forget that Israel, 
 God's chosen Hebrew people, are mentioned in 
 prophetic dispatches some 2,543 times, so can 
 readily be traced and found. Jesus said (Matt. 
 5:17): ** Think not that I am come to destroy 
 the law, or the prophets: I am not come to des- 
 troy, but to fulfill." 
 
 Now, here are all those prophecies con- 
 cerning the nation Israel with David's seed rul- 
 ing during the '* Latter Days" when Jerusalem 
 should cease to be trodden down by the Gentiles 
 and be captured and restored by Israel. To whom 
 the Jews were to be joined under one King and 
 one Flag. What have our blind teachers of God's 
 Word to say that will help us find the way laid 
 down for both the United States and the British 
 sections of Israel to follow in these troublous 
 times? 
 
 Jesus in Luke 19, when questioned by his 
 followers whether the Kingdom of God should 
 immediately appear, referring to his own mission 
 on earth at that date said: *'A certain nobleman 
 
22 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 went into a far country to receive for himself a 
 kingdom, and to return. And he called his ten ser- 
 vants [note the number] and delivered them ten 
 pounds, and said unto-them. Occupy [my kingdom] 
 until I come. But his citizens [the Jews of Judah] 
 hated him, and sent a message after him, saying : 
 *'We will not have this man to reign over us/^ 
 You will see in verse 27 what becomes of these 
 Jews who refuse to have him reign over them. 
 
 In Isaiah, Chapter 41, verse 8, Israel is 
 specifically branded as '^my servant." **But thou, 
 Israel, art my servant . . . Thou whom I have taken 
 from the ends of earth, and called thee from 
 the chief men thereof, and said unto thee. Thou 
 are my servant; I have chosen thee." 
 
 You will note that Jesus did not hand his 
 ** kingdom '' over to the churches as the churches' 
 number throughout both Old and New Testaments 
 is seven Neither did he hand it to the disciples be- 
 cause they were twelve in number. But he did hand 
 it over to the ten-tribed House of Israel, his ten 
 servants, his chosen people, and commissioned 
 them to occupy his Jcingdom, over, which the en- 
 during throne of the House of David was to rule 
 until He should again come whose right it is as 
 King of Kings and ruler of Israel. 
 
 When Jesus was arranging for the future, 
 what commission did he give to his disciples? 
 ^*Gro not into the way of the Gentiles, and into 
 any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: but go 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 23 
 
 rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel," 
 he said. One is safe in saying that our Lord knew 
 the Hebrew Bible inside out and God's plan for 
 Israel down through the ages ; hence he sent his 
 chosen workmen, his disciples, to preach to those 
 **lost sheep'' first, that, having converted them, 
 they would be his instruments for bringing God's 
 light, law, and justice to the whole world, as was 
 predicted in the phophecies which he said he 
 came to fulfill. 
 
 Ask your parson to-day : where is Israel, 
 God's chosen people who were to be not the least 
 but the chief est of nations on earth? And the 
 chances are 990 to 1,000 that you'll have him up a 
 tree. He'll likely say they are the Jews, though 
 they are as much Jews as a Scotchman is an 
 Englishman; an Englishman an Irishman; or as 
 an American is an Icelander, and no more, as I 
 will prove to you further on. 
 
 Ezekiel, after condemning the shepherds, 
 preachers and leaders of Israel (the Anglo-Saxon 
 nations) says: 
 
 "I will require my flock at their hands, and cause 
 them [the shepherds] to cease from feeding the 
 flock . . . For thus saith the Lord God; Behold, 
 I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them 
 out. . . . And ye my flock, the flock of my pas- 
 ture, are men, and / am your God, saith the Lord 
 God.'^ Ezek. 34:10, 11, 31.) 
 
 What an indictment against the ministers 
 of America, Canada, Britain, Australia, New 
 
24 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 Zealand, and the others, for their failure to seek 
 God's chosen nation, Israel, His ten chosen ser- 
 vants, the Ten Lost Tribes, God's *4ost sheep,'' 
 His ^^ flock"!— and ^^the flock" of His ^^ pasture" 
 are men. The part of Judah the Jews have 
 never been lost because ^Hhe shew of their coun- 
 tenance doth witness against them" down through 
 the ages just as foretold (Isa. 3:9). Our negli- 
 gent parsons will pay the price for their neglect 
 to search the Scriptures on this point as com- 
 manded by God, and the Almighty will take over 
 their job of finding and making Israel known to 
 all the world without the aid of the shepherds. 
 
 If there is any doubt that the laws, com- 
 mands and prophecies for national Israel, wher- 
 ever they are, are still in force, look at the last 
 chapter in the Old Testament, Malachi 4 : 4, 
 wherin we are specifically ordered to remember 
 **the law of Moses, my servant, which I command- 
 ed unto him Horeb [for whom?] for all Israel, 
 with the statutes and judgments." 
 
 Well, what is the use of the command, the 
 last commandment in the Old Testament, if our 
 neglectful ministers fail to locate where **all 
 Israel" are to-day to whom this applies? 
 
 '*Aiid he [Elijah] shall turn the heart of the 
 fathers to the children, and the heart of the children 
 to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with 
 (Mai. 4:6.) 
 
 What does this last statement in the Old 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 25 
 
 Testament mean? If we are Israel — and we are 
 — then Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were our 
 fathers, and we are their children, and our hearts 
 are to be turned towards them so that we may 
 see and believe it lest we be smitten with a curse 
 for neglecting to find God's Israel, His executive 
 nations with His enduring, ruling dynasty prom- 
 ised in II Samuel and in Psalms 89, are now on 
 the throne of Great Britain.

CHAPTEE II. 
 
 The children of Israel, including the tribe 
 of Manasseh (U.S.A.), were instructed in many 
 things by the prophet Jeremiah who, according 
 to Jeremiah 1 : 10, Ferrar Fenton's version, says: 
 
 '^See ! I have appointed you to-day over nations, 
 and kingdoms; to pull up, and to break down, and 
 to destroy, and to erase; as well as to build, and to 
 plant.'' 
 
 Jeremiah was born 675 B.C., so he wit- 
 nessed the pulling up, breaking down, and erasing 
 of the kingdom of Judah, the killing of 
 the king's son, and taking prisoners of the 
 remnant of the nation. About 581 B.C. Jeremiah 
 started on the latter part of his divine commission 
 of building and planting. Accompanied by the 
 royal seed, Zedekiah's daughter, Tamar Tephi, 
 and Baruch, his scribe, he started for Ireland. 
 Ten different Irish histories record the fact that 
 at this time a wonderful prophet arrived in Ire- 
 land who caused Baal worship to cease, married 
 his ward (Zedekiah's daughter) to the then ruling 
 king of Ireland, who also was of the seed of 
 David through the Zarah branch, (of Judah is the 
 Iberian colony who landed in Iceland about 1700 
 B.C. from Spain the Iberian peninsula) on con- 
 
 28 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 29 
 
 dition that the king should found a school for 
 prophets. This was built at Tara and for five 
 hundred years the educated men of Europe came 
 to Ireland to absorb wisdom and learning from 
 this school founded by Jeremiah, and to-day in 
 the Court of Justice in Dublin, in the position of 
 honor, is the medallion of Jeremiah cut in endur- 
 ing stone as a waymark of his former presence 
 there. 
 
 See Jeremiah 31 : 21 where Israel was in- 
 structed to set up waymarks: 
 
 "Set thee up waymarks, make thee high heaps: 
 set thine heart toward the highway, even the way 
 which thou wentest." 
 
 You will naturally wonder whether Israel 
 carried out these instructions, and for your in- 
 formation I can advise that they did. So, Israel's 
 wanderings can be traced from the very place 
 where they were taken as captives by the Assyrian 
 king, Shahnaneser, that is, to the southwest of 
 the Caspian Sea. 
 
 Diodorus writes : The Sacae sprung from a 
 people in Media. 
 
 Ptolemy found the Saxons in a race of 
 Sythians called Sakia who came from Media. 
 
 Pliny says: The Sakai were among the 
 most distinguished people of Scythia, who set- 
 tled in Armenia and were called Sacae-Sani. 
 
 Alhinus says: *'The Saxons were descended 
 from the ancient Sacae in Asia.'' 
 
30 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 Prideaux finds that the Cimbrians (Kum 
 rii) came from between the Black and Caspian 
 seas and with them came the Angli. 
 
 Plutarch, Tacitus, and Ptolemy show clear- 
 ly that the Anglo-Saxons, the Sacae and the 
 Scythians and the Getae were the same people.* 
 
 While this place became the national grave 
 of rebellious Israel, wonderful as it may seem, it 
 is no less the cradle of the Anglo-Saxon-Celtic 
 race, as traced by the historian, Sharon Turner, 
 120 years ago and more recently by Major B. de 
 W. Weldon in The Evolution of Israel, and also in 
 his later work. The Origin of the English. 
 
 These people, having been separated from 
 God on account of their sins, were not to be known 
 or recognized as God's people until they should 
 repent of their sins and accept Christ's message 
 to the lost sheep of Israel ; but it was foretold in 
 Genesis 21 : 12, **in Isaac shall thy seed be called/' 
 The tribes broke up into sections and wandered 
 under various names, as Scythians, Goths, Gatae, 
 the largest mass or body of Gatae being called 
 ^^Massagatae," and under the divine impulse to 
 push westward they trekked north of the Black 
 Sea into the Crimea. They started out calling 
 themselves Saac-sons; and there are many tomb- 
 stones in the Crimea bearing names and dates 
 stating that the dead are Saac-sons and children 
 of captivity, and giving the very period of their 
 
 *"Ood's Covenant Man," by E. Odium, M.A., B.Sc, etc. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 31 
 
 captivity and the commencement of the nation — 
 when Israel came out of Egypt under Moses. 
 There are no vowels in Hebrew so the 1 was not 
 pronounced, and the Isaac-sons were called 8aac- 
 sons and on their tombstones it is so writ- 
 ten, and it is now spelled Saxons. Engle in 
 Hebrew is bull, and the bull tribe of Isaac-sons 
 were called Engle or Angle-Saxons, as the 
 ceturies rolled on. Everywhere these Saac-sons 
 went, they left waymarks* until they took up 
 their abode in the isles of the sea north and west 
 from Palestine, the British or Covenant Isles, 
 where the prophets foretold God would appoint 
 a place for them, where they would be moved no 
 more; where their enemies would not be able 
 to afflict them, as in former times, so that they 
 could grow strong and become **a great nation" 
 as prophesied in Genesis 12 : 2, 3 : 
 
 ''And I will make of thee a great nation, and 1 
 will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou 
 shalt be a blessing: and I will bless them that bless 
 thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee 
 shall all families of the earth be blessed.'' 
 
 No other nation has ever had the word 
 **greaf as part of their national name. Why? 
 This could not apply to the Jews because they

 realize that the Anglo-Saxons are Israel and that 
 all the blessings for Jews can only come through 
 Israel to whom they are to be joined as foretold 
 in the Old Testament. 
 
 Israel was finally to become a company or 
 ** multitude of nations." (Gen. 48 : 19.) Great 
 Britain certainly has become **a multitude [or 
 commonwealth] of nations" with her Anglo-Saxon 
 offspring, forming nations and colonies the world 
 over, the first of her offspring being the United 
 States of America. The Jews have not been a 
 nation since their expulsion from Jerusalem and 
 never will be. 
 
 See Genesis 49. 22 to get a line on the in- 
 heritance surely belonging to Great Britain 
 (Great Covenant Land) and the United States: 
 
 "Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough 
 by a well [or water] ; whose branches run over the 
 wall." 
 
 The United States branch ran over the wall 
 
 when your Prilgrim Fathers, all Englishmen, beat 
 
 it for America. The Australian branch beat it 
 
 for the antipodes. The Canadian branch ran 
 
 over the wall from Britain and also from the 
 
 U.S.A., because when your citizens decided to do 
 
 without a king as the head of your organization, 
 
 many loyal Britishers of England, Scotch, and 
 
 Irish brands left everything they possessed in the 
 
 U.S.A. and took up their abode in the wooded 
 
 wilderness of Canada rather than be disloyal to 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 33 
 
 their King and Governor, who, imperfect though 
 he proved to be, was still the instrument of God. 
 
 They (the United Empire Loyalists who 
 left the U.S.A.) were not of the Manasseh seed 
 who were to become a great people, so they pulled 
 out and have been the backbone of Canadianism 
 ever since. 
 
 Other branches ran over the wall all over 
 the world; and a right husky lot of branches or 
 lion's cubs they proved themselves to be in France 
 and Belgium, in Italy, in Gallipoli, in Mesa- 
 potamia, and in Egypt, fighting and holding the 
 Hun while brother Jonathan was making ready 
 his millions to send over to help. 
 
 To-day Canada, Australia, New Zealand, 
 South Africa, Newfoundland, India, and the 
 dozens of Colonies and possessions all are ruled 
 by the offspring of British stock ; all proudly hail 
 George V. as their King and Governor, and he is 
 as clearly descended from King David, King of 
 Israel, as you are from your grandfather, as is 
 proven by W. M. H. Milner's book. The Royal 
 House of Britain an Enduring Dynasty,

 ly grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him

 arms of his [Joseph^s] hands were made strong by 
 the hands of the mighty God of Jac(yb; (from thence 
 is the shepherd, the stone of Israel). 
 
 In Ferrar Fenton's version this last clause 
 
34 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 reads: *^From Whom is Israel's guardian stone'' 
 — that *^ guardian stone'' which rests in West- 
 minister Abbey and upon which the kings and 
 queens of Ireland, Scotland and England of the 
 seed of David have been crowned since the pro- 
 phet Jeremiah took it to Ireland about 597 B.C. 
 Ferrar Fenton in his splendid translation 
 of the Bible into modern English says (Jer. 
 31:21): 
 
 "Set up your Beacons, — ^your Landmarks set up ! 
 
 Fix your hearts on the mounds by the way that 
 you marched. 
 
 Return, IsraeFs dsaughter, return to your City." 
 
 *^The tribe of Dan, whose homeland was 
 Jordan ( Jor-dan) and who stayed in their ships, 
 were bold and enterprising. Their first camping 
 ground they named Mahaneh-Dan and along their 
 lines of travel we find the names they left behind 
 then in the Dan-ube, the Dan-iester, the Dan-au, 
 the Dan-an, the Dan-inn, Dan-tzig, Dan-etz, the 
 Dan-aster, the Dan-dari, the Danez, the Don, the 
 Dacia, the Sea of Moses and the Country of Moses 
 or Morcia, the Dan-ric Alps, the Danish archi- 
 pelago, etc. In Ptolemy's map of Ireland we find 
 Dans-lough, Dan-Sower, Dan Sobairse, Dan's 
 resting place and Dan's habitation and Dan-gan 
 castle (the birthplace of the Duke of Welling- 
 ton).

 ed Dan-onians and it is well known that among

 When Joseph, our first food controller, was 
 keeping the Egyptians from starving during the 
 seven lean years, 1700 B.C. to 1693 B.C. (as the 
 U.S.A. through its servant and food controller, 
 Herbert Hoover, helped the Belgians), his two 
 sons — Manasseh, born 1711 B.C., and Ephraim, 
 born 1712 B.C. — ^were doubtless playing around 
 the public square and Temple of On in that large 
 Egyptian City of Memphis, a few miles from 
 where Cairo now stands, and in full view of that 
 greatest wonder of the world the Great Pyra- 
 mid of Gizeh, built by Shem in 2170 B.C. 
 In that public square in front of the temple 
 in Memphis stood two obelisks — and there are no 
 other two in the world just like them. "Where are 
 those obelisks to-day? Does it seem strange that 
 one of these obelisks, several thousand years later, 
 should find its way from Egypt to America and 
 should be set up in your largest city? This 
 Egyptian obelisk, popularly called Cleopatra's 
 Needle, is of rose-red Syene granite and was 
 actually presented to the City of New York by 
 Ismael, Khedive of Egypt, in 1877. I wonder why 
 of all the nations on this round earth he happened 
 to select America — ^what is your guess?

 It was brought to New York in 1880 at the 
 expense of $100,000 by Mr. W. H. Vanderbilt and 
 was erected in Central Park in 1881, where it 
 stands to-day, proudly rearing its pointed apex 
 skyward as a waymark to all America of the place 
 of origin of your forefather Manasseh, and the 
 starting place of your world-wide wanderings 
 since you left Egypt under Moses. 
 
 The children of Israel marched out of 
 Egypt under Moses about 1492 B.C., and, if the 
 U. S. A. section of Israel is representatively to 
 * ^ return to your city, ' ' it is rather important that 
 you know the city that your progenitor come from, 
 is it not? Well, your largest city has your way- 
 mark waiting since 1881 for Americans, both 
 Jews and Israelites, to realize their identity ; and 
 waiting for them to take their full part in the 
 world inheritance given to their forefathers, Abra- 
 ham, Isaac, and Jacob, Joseph and Manasseh. 
 See Genesis 48:4: ^* Behold, I will . . . give this 
 land to thy seed after thee for an everlasting pos- 
 session,'' and it has been in the possession of 
 Abraham's seed ever since, as the Turk is de- 
 scended from Esau, Jacob's brother. 
 
 The souls of most men and women who 
 have given them a reasonable chance for expres- 
 sion and growth by following the wee small voice 
 of Conscience or Spirit, as it moves us, know 
 more than the same men and women can ade- 
 quately voice or explain to outsiders. Likewise, 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 37 
 
 the Soul of America knows more than its poli- 
 ticians, who have been led by a way they know 
 not, to do the things God has laid ont for the 
 American section of Israel to bring about. 
 
 You will remember that the Holy Land, 
 from the river Nile to the Euphrates in Meso- 
 potamia, was promised to Israel, for an in- 
 heritance. 
 
 In this area lies the Suez Canal, built for 
 the Khedive by that farseeing enterprising 
 French engineer, de Lesseps, with French men, 
 money and brains. But it was not for France to 
 hold. You may remember that that farseeing 
 son of Judah, Benjamin D 'Israeli (or Benjamin 
 of Israel) then Prime Minister of Britain when 
 the Khedive was hard up, bought a controlling 
 interest in the canal for the Covenant Land 
 (Brithain), for about £4,000,000 which had origin- 
 ally cost about £30,000,000; and so it passed to 
 British ownership and control forever. 
 
 The Panama Canal, started by the same 
 engineer, with French men, money, and machinery 
 failed. But Israel was promised the waste place 
 of the earth and the control of the sea and the 
 rivers afar and the gates. So, after millions had 
 been spent on it, the machinery rotted until the 
 Manasseh tribe of Israel took it over ; and then the 
 gigantic task went digging to completion. So the 
 two brother nations have not only a Cleopatra's 
 Needle apiece to mark their origin, — ^here I am 
 ahead of my story — but they each own a canal 
 
38 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 started by another nation's cash. These canals 
 connecting the seas are onrs, because Israel was 
 given command of the sea and their right hand 
 was to be in the rivers afar^ — and it is and will so 
 continue. **God moves in a mysterious way his 
 wonders to perform!'* 
 
 The Promised Land will be the most fertile 
 land in the world. When irrigated it will grow 
 four crops per year, and strange to say, this sec- 
 tion of land, I am told, has never been sold or 
 deeded to anyone since it was promised to Israel. 
 They did not obey God's laws and were as a conse- 
 quence scattered among the Gentiles. You can 
 buy land in England, Canada, United States, any- 
 where and get title to it. Years ago several 
 colonization schemes were proposed for Palestine 
 but the sultans of Turkey, when it came to a show- 
 down, would never sell this land or give a deed; 
 it was to be held for Judah and Israel — God's 
 chosen people — to return to. If you wish to locate 
 your section of it, read the last half dozen 
 chapters of Ezekiel, where the survey is laid 
 down in thirteen longitudinal strips, almost like 
 an American flag — and don't overlook Chapter 
 47, verse 13, where it says, ** Joseph shall have 
 two portions ' ' : one for Manasseh, the representa- 
 tive of the great people (U.S.A.), and the other 
 for Ephraim, the nation and company of nations 
 (Britain, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, 
 India, Australia, etc.). The brotherhood of 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 39 
 
 Britain and the United States is ordained down 
 through the ages, despite the machinations of the 
 Land Leaguers, Fenians, Clan Na Gael, Sinn 
 Fein, Pro-Grerman and other more secret and 
 insidious foes, some of whom, before America be- 
 came a nation, had been working nights and Sun- 
 days to ditch old Britain, that Mother of Free 
 Parliaments and breeder of free peoples. 
 
 The year 1882 was foretold in the Bible as 
 a wonderful year for Israel, also by Piazzi Smyth, 
 F. E. S. E., F. B. A. S., Astronomer Royal for 
 Scotland, in his work, Our Inheritance in the Great 
 Pyramid of Egypt, published in 1865, the third 
 edition in 1877, a copy of which lies before me. 
 It was also foretold by H. Grattan Guinness, 
 D.D., in 1878, in his illuminating- work. The Ap- 
 proaching End of the Age, (a book that ran 
 through thirteen editions) and by many other 
 authors. As Manasseh (America) and that other 
 tribe, Ephraim (England), both sons of Joseph, 
 came from Egypt, they will naturally be in- 
 terested in Egypt ^s future developments. 
 
 Jeremiah 33 : 14 says : ** Behold us, the days 
 come, saith the Lord, that I will perform that good 
 thing which I have promised unto the House of 
 Israel and to the house of Judah." What good 
 thing? That He will restore Israel again, one of 
 a city and two of a family, united in the land 
 that He gave them. But first we have to get that 
 
40 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 land, haven't we I How are we to get possession 
 of it? 
 
 In 1882 Great Britain and France sent 
 their fleets to Alexandria, Egypt, by agreement 
 to bombard and take possession of it. Arrange- 
 ments were made by both admirals to bombard 
 together ; but you will remember that the French 
 admiral, without authority, beat it home to Ton- 
 Ion with his whole fleet, without firing a shot. Why, 
 I wonder? Was it not because that land was for 
 Israel and it was not on the cards that France 
 should have any hand in it, or be mixed up with 
 or have any legitimate claim upon that particular 
 bit of land! According to the Bible, Joseph 
 was to win back Palestine from Turkey ; and she 
 did in 1917, just in the year Daniel predicted, the 
 1335th lunar year dating from the Hegira. See 
 Daniel 12:12: ^^ Blessed is he that waiteth, and 
 Cometh to the thousand three hundred and five 
 and thirty days'' — all phophetic days being con- 
 sidered as years in the Bible as in Ezekiel 4 : 5. 
 
 Who do you suppose landed with the Bri- 
 tish and helped Brother John restore law and 
 order in Alexandria after it was bombarded? 
 Well, it was Brother Jonathan who was on the job 
 despite your rulers' many decisions, before and 
 since, not to mix up in European matters. Your 
 fleet landed their marines with the British. The 
 British Army and Navy Gazette of February 24, 
 1883, says in part, ** Admiral Nicholson, U.S.N., 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 41 
 
 rendered this country [England] most valuable 
 service at a critical moment in landing Marines 
 at Alexandria after the bombardment to assist 
 Lord Alcester in restoring law and order." 
 
 The American vessels of war that were at 
 Alexandria at the time were the following: 
 
 1. Lancaster — First class Sloop of War — 
 Capt. Bancroft Gherardi. 
 
 2. Galena— Iron Clad S. S. Third rate- 
 Commander 0. A. Batcheller. 
 
 3. Nipsic — Gunboat fourth class — Com- 
 mander H. B. Seeley. 
 
 4. Quinnebaug — Gunboat fourth class — 
 Commander William Whitehead. 
 
 The squadron was in command of Rear Ad- 
 miral J. W. A. Nicholson, U.S.A. not a very 
 formidable looking lot, but Providence had them 
 on the spot just when they were surely wanted, 
 as the French admiral got a brain wave to beat 
 it home, and was cashiered, I am told, for not 
 carrying out his government's instructions to 
 bombard and take possession with the British. 
 Still there are people who cannot see God 
 ruling through His chosen instrument Israel, the 
 Anglo-Saxon-Celts ! 
 
 Well, Gladstone didn't want Egypt, and he 
 said from the floor of the House, ^*We are only 
 in Egypt to settle this matter and then we shall 
 leave." Man proposes, even a big man, but God 
 disposes; and Gladstone had to break his word, 
 
42 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 as we didn't get out of Egypt, despite Gladstone's 
 many promises and Lord Salisbury's after him, 
 nor have we gone since, as Providence so far has 
 overruled every attempt to scuttle from Egypt. 
 
 Lord Dufferin, one of the most able Gov- 
 ernor-Generals Canada has ever had (1872-1878), 
 made a speech about that time to the Empire Club 
 in which he said : 
 
 '^I believe the time is too late for England! to 
 seek to disinherit herself from that noble destiny 
 which I firmly believe she has been entrusted of 
 Providence. The same hidden hand which planted 
 the tree of Constitutional Liberty within her borders, 
 and which has called upon her to become the Mother 
 of Parliaments, has sent forth her children to possess 
 the waste places of the earth. That her design has 
 been to turn such to a Paradise of plenty, those 
 present can best testify. I believe that great as have 
 been the changes of our day, our children are des- 
 tined to see still more glorious accomplishments." 
 
 Lord Du:fferin in the above only said — 
 and almost in Biblical words — what the prophets 
 had foretold three thousand years ago as Israel's 
 future ; and she nnd America are fulfilling it every 
 day of the 365 in the year. 
 
 Providence was again on the job when 
 Admiral George Dewey took Manilla from Spain 
 and the German admiral threatened him. I sup- 
 pose you remember that, just as Brother Jonathan 
 had happened in Alexandria Harbour when want- 
 ed in 1882, John Bull happened with a fleet in 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 43 
 
 Manilla Bay at a most opportune time, and the 
 British fleet steamed between the anchored Ger- 
 man fleet and the American. The Hun admiral 
 had tried to bluff Admiral Dewey; Brother John 
 heard of it, and, to show Germany that blood was 
 thicker than water, altered his ships so that the 
 first shell fired towards the American fleet would 
 be at the British fleet. 'Twas a real brotherly 
 action and one that was thoroughly appreciated 
 by Admiral Dewey and his officers and by the 
 American nation. 
 
 Admiral George Dewey at Manilla and Ad- 
 miral Nicholson, U.S.N., at Alexandria, in 1882, 
 may not have known it, but the Creator of this 
 world gave Israel (both the U.S.A. and British 
 sections) ^Hhe gate'' of their enemies. (Gen. 
 22 : 17.) Now there is, and always has been, only 
 one element that is *Hhe gate" to all Israel's 
 enemies, and that is the sea; and by God's grace 
 we have it. In Psalm 89 : 25, we read : 
 
 **I will set his hand also in the sea, and his 
 right hand in the rivers. ' ' 
 
 Ferrar Fenton's version has verses 24-26 
 as follows : 
 
 "His assailants I cut from his face, 
 And all who hate him will diefeat. 
 With him are My Mercy and Truth, 
 And I lift up his horn by My Power, 
 So I placed his left hand on the Sea, 
 And his right to the Rivers afar !" 
 
44 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 "Well, both sections of Israel have had their 
 assailants cut off; and Britain and America have 
 always defeated those who hate them and, thank 
 God, always will, as the House of David is the 
 throne of Jehovah on earth which He has sworn 
 He will protect until Christ comes again to Je- 
 rusalem, this time to reign over the whole House 
 of Israel, and the whole world as King of Israel. 
 
 The Brith-annia or Covenant of the deep, 
 or rule of the sea — for this is its Hebrew meaning 
 — ^belongs as much to one of Joseph ^s sons as to 
 the other and is America's God-given charter for 
 her navy as it is for Britain's. Under Britain the 
 whole world was free to use the sea until Germany 
 started to smash civilization. Not knowing the 
 Creator's plan, your President left your shores 
 with his grip packed with demands and arguments 
 — for what? ^^The freedom of the seas," this 
 old cry of the German, the Hun and the Turk, as 
 if the world had not had every freedom of the sea 
 until Germany started to smash civilization and 
 we used our God-given rule of it against her. This 
 demand and that of ^*no indemnities, no annexa- 
 tion" wrought harm for your friend France. 
 Germany must not be asked to indemnify her wil- 
 ful destructions, but France, who bled at every 
 pore, saving your hide as well as her own, must 
 indemnify America for the shot and shell she used 
 in saving it! Will America indemnify France the 
 million and a half lives lost using the shells that 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 45 
 
 saved the world, not France alone, from destruc- 
 tion? 
 
 ** America's soul is unsettled !'' said 
 Harvey O'Higgins. Thank God it is! or 'twere 
 almost useless to have souls. The British ad- 
 miral's action at Manilla Bay was heartily com- 
 mended by Americans of both political parties 
 with the exception of the Clan-na-Gael (or was it 
 the Land Leaguers of that time?), our and your 
 inveterate enemies — enemies in Canaan and 
 enemies still. They have run true to form ever 
 since Israel took the promised land. 
 
 However, 'tis not to worry or be down- 
 hearted, because the mills of God are as surely 
 grinding out His judgments for the behind hedges 
 and other murderers in Erin as when America 
 placed yokes on the sons and daughters of Ham 
 and expected to get away with it. **By their 
 fruits ye shall know them" is still the divine 
 command; and * ^Whatsoever a man soweth, that 
 shall he also reap" still holds good in America as 
 in Ireland. The crops sown for years past will 
 within a few years be garnered and many people 
 churchmen and politicians, will be surprised at the 
 overdue portion coming to their sections. The 
 Irish of all classes and creeds will then get their 
 due justice with ordered liberty and real peace 
 with real Home rule. Ireland was set apart by 
 Jehovah for Israel, not for the Canaanites, 
 Phoenicians, Fenians or Sinn Feiners, over 1600 
 
46 DESTINY OF BKITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 years B.C. and has been occnpied by them ever 
 since — and who are the Sinn Feiners who 
 can claim right and title to what God gave to His 
 covenant people or who can change the Cre- 
 ator's design? They have had many tries for it, 
 bnt they have always failed and always will. Good 
 will and justice can secure what force never can in 
 Brith-ain, even in the Irish section of it. The su- 
 premacy of the law, God's law, must come first. 
 Ulster will, I think, show them how— to all men 
 of good will. 
 
 In Chapter 41 the prophet, speaking to the 
 Brith Colony of Israel, says, '^Keep silence be- 
 fore me, islands [What islands ? Look up any 
 map and see any islands that it could possibly 
 apply to save the British Isles] ; and let the people 
 renew their strength. ' ' (vs. 1. ) * * Thou, Israel, art 
 my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed 
 of Abraham my friend.'' (vs. 8.) **I will make 
 thee a new sharp threshing instrument having 
 teeth" (vs. 15) and so on; all through the balance 
 of Isaiah the inspired prophet describes in vary- 
 ing stages Israel as she has been, is now, or is to 
 be, and Mother Brith-ain fits it clause after clause 
 and no other nation has or ever will fulfill those 
 prophecies. 
 
 **The isles shall wait for his law." ^^My 
 servant, Israel." Who are the people of the 
 ^ isles'"? There are not many isles to pick from 
 nor many peoples who wait for *^His law". If the 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 47 
 
 British in India, in Egypt, in China, in every 
 heathen nation are not God's servants, what na- 
 tion is or ever has been? Gentlemen, the Brith- 
 ish (Covenant men — Brith meaning covenant and 
 ish meaning men) are God's ** servants" they wait 
 for His law and they are in the islands where God 
 said His servant would be ; they fill every single 
 specification — and Americans are as much Coven- 
 ant men as are their brothers of the British Isles 
 who did not migrate to America with George 
 Washington's forebears. 
 
 As that grand old fighting British admiral, 
 Lord Fisher, who foresaw 1914 — and built 
 Britain's 1914 war fleet in anticipation of it, says 
 in his Memories, page 223, ** Jerusalen, the Capi- 
 tal of 'The Lost Ten Tribes of Israel' whom we 
 are without doubt, for how otherwise could ever 
 we have so prospered when we have had such 
 idiots to guide us and rule us as those who gave up 
 Heligoland, Tangier, Curacoa, Corfu, Delagoa 
 Bay, Java, Sumatra Minorca, etc., etc.? I have 
 been at all the places named, so am able to state 
 from the personal knowledge that only con- 
 genital idiots could have been guilty of such 
 inconceivable folly as to surrender them and 
 again I say Let Us Thank God That We Are 
 THE Lost Ten Tribes of Israel!" John Bull 
 muddles and muddles, but he always muddles 
 through, and goodness knows that any other 
 nation with a like capacity for muddling would 
 
48 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 have been on the scrap heap ages ago, but for 
 the divine overruling of The Almighty. 
 
 Admiral Lord Fisher was a staunch Bible 
 student as are so many leading soldier and 
 sailors of Britain. Just before his death when 
 about to be operated upon, he asked his closest 
 friend to be with him and if he saw that he was 
 passing out, to whisper in his ear as he was cross- 
 ing the bar, the following verse, * ^ Lord, in thee 
 have I trusted, let me never be confounded. ' ' He 
 confounded many enemies of Britain and spent 
 his days and nights working with might and main 
 to protect God's Kingdom and its enduring 
 throne upon which sits the seed of David. 
 
 I was pleased indeed when the pastor of the 
 church I attended in Canada held a memorial ser- 
 vice in honor of this great servant in Israel. 
 
 What does British history say about ^ * The 
 isles shall wait for his law''? Well, Alfred the 
 Great placed Israel's Hebrew laws (Moses' Ten 
 Commandments and much of Deuteronomy) at 
 the head of the laws of Britain in his time ; and the 
 laws of Britain, the United States and all the 
 other Anglo-Saxon nations are based upon the 
 Hebrew laws of Moses, every man being equal 
 before the law — justice to all, rich and poor alike. 
 Is it not strange that we Anglo-Saxons should 
 adopt Hebrew laws for our own if we are not 
 their decendants, national Israel? 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 49 
 
 The Creator of this world certainly called 
 Israel to be His servant, and God certainly has 
 been with Britain and her offspring in all times of 
 trouble; and the Anglo-Saxon-Celts have been a 
 light to the Gentiles, doing His missionary work 
 among the heathen to the ends of the earth, by 
 means of foreign missionary societies and the 
 churches for centuries, and added to recently by 
 that grand Army with its Salvation banner float- 
 ing among the heathen of all nations. 
 
 If Britain and her offspring are filling 
 every item of the thousands of promises God made 
 to and for Israel in the Bible, then gentlemen, I 
 submit that we Anglo-Saxon-Celts must be Israel. 
 These historical facts cannot be dodged, ducked 
 or ignorantly set aside by business men in the 
 troublous times we are yet to go through. **Ye 
 shall know the truth and the truth shall make 
 you free.*' 
 
 When America's business men understand 
 the plan laid down for them by the Creator in the 
 Bible (and I defy anyone to read intelligently 
 one half the Bible unless they can locate the 
 Hebrew nation of Israel, as well as Judah), then 
 will America and Britain, and the Anglo-Saxon 
 peoples, and the Jews the world round, have a 
 compass and a chart by which they can direct 
 their national and business sailings with abso- 
 lute knowledge that they are working according 
 
50 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 to the divine plan; and then **God will prosper 
 their undertakings'' as the motto on America's 
 Great Seal — Annuit Coeptis — proclaims. 
 
 It is interesting to remember that the 
 Creator's chosen people were Hebrews and their 
 writings were mostly in Hebrew. In the early 
 days they divided peoples into two categories : 
 
 (1) Hebrews, or God's people. 
 
 (2) Heathen, all who were not Hebrews.* 
 It is interesting to find the early inhabi- 
 tants of the British Isles in Ireland, in Wales and 
 in Scotland using the Hebrew language and forty 
 per cent of the English language is based upon 
 the Hebrew. Furthermore, we have used Hebrew 
 weights and measures for 3,000 years, and they 
 check with those found in the Pyramid built about 
 2170 B.C. by Shem, son of Noah,— though our 
 yard stick is the one thousandth part shorter, 
 perhaps due to wear and tear through the ages! 
 
 William Tyndall, who translated the New 
 Testament, says, ^^The Greek agreed more with 
 the Englyshe than with the Latyne and the pro- 
 perties of the Hebrew tongue agreeth a thousand 
 times more with the Englyshe than with tlie 
 Latyne. ' ' 
 
 * * My lore has been declared in Hebrew — in 
 the Hebraic Tongue," asserted Taliesin, the king 
 or prince of Druid bards. 
 
 *See The Kingdom of God, by C. W. Eakeley. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 51 
 
 Dozens of other authorities could be quot- 
 ed, but Tyndall settles the matter as far as my 
 judgment is concerned. 
 
 The Hebrew word Goyim means nations 
 though we have been so long taught by those who 
 should know and do not (see Matt. 15:14) that it 
 means ** Gentiles'' that most people accept it with- 
 out question. 
 
 The Archbishop of Canterbury, I am told, 
 in his sermon at the National Prayer Meeting for 
 help during the war stated that Britain was a 
 Gentile nation and he laid stress upon this false 
 rendering. 
 
 It would upset the false teachings of many 
 Episcopal Churchmen (with the accent on the 
 men) of Britain if that section of the Church Uni- 
 versal were to see that, though Israel was to be 
 scattered among the ** nations," the Gentiles or 
 heathen, it was to be but a temporary dispersion. 
 For the prophets who predicted this scattering 
 of Israel also said that Israel would be ** sifted'' 
 among the nations, **like as corn is sifted" and 
 that not a ** grain" would be lost and **He that 
 scattered Israel would gather them. ' ' They were 
 to have a place appointed unto them — in the Isles 
 north and west from Palestine where they would 
 move and where they w^ould be strengthened and 
 would become a nation, a great nation (**and thy 
 name shall be great") and a ** company" or 
 '^multitude of nations," from which one section 
 
52 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 was to break away and become a * ^ great people, - ' 
 and they were to be God's people and eventually 
 a nation of priests to God. 
 
 I would like to have the Archbishop of 
 Canterbury's rendering of Genesis 17:4, which 
 reads, **As for me, behold, my covenant is with 
 thee [Abraham], and thou shalt be a father of 
 many nations [Goyim]. Surely God did not tell 
 Abraham that he was to be a father of many 
 heathen unbelievers or Gentiles but that He in- 
 tended him to be the father of many nations who 
 were, as promised to Israel, to inherit the earth, — 
 as the Gentiles never will. Their time is about 
 ended. 
 
 I may be wrong but it has always seemed 
 to me that it is as necessary to use common sense 
 in dealing with the Bible as it is in the army, 
 which was rarely overloaded with that commo- 
 dity, so necessary in business. 
 
 The church was to be in Israel but it could 
 not he Israel because she in no sense fills the 
 specifications laid down in hundreds of cases in 
 the Bible that describe national, literal Israel, 
 God's Hebrew people. His ten servants. His 
 battle axe and weapons of war. My Nation Is- 
 rael. 
 
 What is known as horse sense, with or 
 without overmuch learning, is a great asset to 
 most people, though the German **high lights" 
 showed little of it when they signed that appeal 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 53 
 
 to the world at the beginning of the war; and 
 some of our Oxford variety exhibited a like 
 amount after the war when they hankered to re- 
 sume old relations before German professors or 
 Germany had shown one single sign of repent- 
 ence: *^ There are none so blind as those who 
 will not see'' — university professors included!

 Now, what became of Manasseh's younger 
 brother, Ephraim? Jacob, Joseph's father, when 
 blessing Ephraim in Egypt, said: *'His seed shall 
 become a multitude of nations. '* (Gen.48:19.) 
 Ferrar Fenton's version has it in verses 19 and 
 20: *^But his father refused, saying, *I knew it my 
 son, I knew it. He also [Manasseh, U.S.A.] shall 
 be a nation, — and he also shall be great, — ^but 
 nevertheless his younger brother [Ephraim, Eng- 
 land] shall be greater than he [Manasseh], and 
 his race shall be a multitude [or commonwealth] 
 of nations, and when blessing in that period they 
 shall say, ^'The Blessing of Israel be upon you! 
 May God make you like Ephraim and like Manas- 
 seh," and they will place Ephraim above Manas- 
 seh.' '' 
 
 These two boys were brothers, and the na- 
 tions springing from them are still and always 
 will be called Brother Jonathan and Brother John 
 or John Bull. One has grown into a great nation, 
 just as predicted about the year 1689 B.C., and 
 the other has grown into a multitude, or as some 
 prophets state, ^*a company of nations,'' and the 
 headquarters are located in the *4sles of the sea," 
 north and west of Palestine, where the prophets 
 
 56 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 57 
 
 of old said Jehovali would select a place, a 
 sanctuary for them, and where the other nations 
 would afflict them no more, as heretofore, and 
 they never have. Just note those saving words — 
 **as heretofore/' 
 
 When Israel was on the Continent and later 
 wandering across Europe, they were subject to 
 invasion by Egyptian, Assyrian, African, Baby- 
 lonian and Roman Empire troops, but when they 
 beat it across the English Channel, their island 
 home would be inviolate and they could not be 
 afflicted in that manner any more. The Creator 
 took care that the Spanish Armada and other 
 attempted invasions were properly attended to by 
 the elements when their enemies sought to subdue 
 Britain. In like manner Providence has taken 
 care of Old Mother Britain down through the 
 ages, just as the children of Israel were to be 
 taken care of by God that they might carry on His 
 work. They have done it imperfectly, of course, 
 but they have been about as perfect as are you 
 and I and the other chaps making up these na- 
 tions. But when we get wise as to who we are, 
 what we are, and why we are, we will brush up 
 our imperfections. Just read the 54 chapter of 
 Isaiah and note the last verse: 
 
 "No weapon that is formed against thee [Israel] 
 shall prosper ; and every tongue that shall rise against 
 thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the 
 heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their right- 
 eousness is of me, saith the Lord.^' 
 
58 DESTINY OR BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 Could this possibly have been spoken about 
 the Jews, who have never been servants of the 
 Lord. ** Their righteousness is of Me." They 
 crucified our Lord and to-day they are still at the 
 game prohibiting even the word Christian from 
 being even used in the free for all schools of Amer- 
 ica and will not even let Christmas carols be sung 
 or Christmas trees be used in schools where they 
 have power to kick them out. See Jewish activi- 
 ties in U.S.A. in Henry Ford's book by The Dear- 
 horn Independent, Dearborn, Mich. Price 25 
 cents. 
 
 If we only realized that this heritage was 
 for us Anglo-Saxon Celts, what a change for the 
 better would come over the face of this earth! 
 That prediction was comforting during the trying 
 times when the Huns were raiding Britain with 
 Zeppelins and raiding the seven seas with their 
 submarines, manned by the most sinister pirates 
 ever afloat, under instructions to ^4eave not a 
 trace" — their record of sinking the Lusitania 
 and hospital ships, etc., will remain an outstand- 
 ing infamy so long as men exist. 
 
 Banking upon these prophecies meaning 
 what they said, I was quite certain over our pros- 
 pects of doing them in ere they put us out of com- 
 mission with either Zepps or subarmines. 
 
 I remember going into our mess late one 
 morning when the only occupant was our senior 
 parson, a charming Englishman and preacher 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 59 
 
 (now a real live Bishop with gaiters in South 
 Africa). He was shaking his head and looking 
 very glum as he perused the Times report of our 
 last week's shipping sinkages. 
 
 *^Many ships gone last week, Colonel!'' I 
 asked. 
 
 **I am afraid the Hun will do us in at the 
 rate they are sinking our ships," he replied. 
 
 Then I quoted : ^ * No weapon that is formed 
 against thee [Israel] shall prosper''; but the 
 Colonel being one of those knowledgeable higher 
 critic chaps from Oxford, who, together with the 
 German higher critics, have spiritualized away all 
 God's enduring promises from *Hhe latter" and 
 other days, naturally could not see my cheerful 
 outlook for a minute, and admitted that he could 
 not read my ^* stuff" meaning a book of Marr 
 Murray's on British-Israelism that I had loaned 
 him (hoping to have an argument on the facts 
 contained therein), but he ducked the issue by not 
 reading it, alas^ 
 
 My progenitors, when passing out tempers, 
 cut mine a trifle short (the way I cut my hair) ' 
 and I remember we finished the session by my re- 
 marking that if I knew as damn little about road- 
 building as he did about prophecy and the Bible 
 generally, I'd quit my road job and sign on with 
 the calvary (who at that time were mostly eating 
 their heads off in the back areas and had been for 
 years). 
 
60 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 If these lines ever reach the Bishop I^m 
 sure he will chuckle over some of the strenuous 
 arguments we used to engage in : because, despite 
 my many shortcomings, perhaps because of them, 
 he seemed to have a liking for me ; but, being an 
 Englishman, he couldn't express it, though he 
 presented me at different times with autographed 
 copies of books he had written and when the Arch- 
 bishop of Canterbury came to our Army Head- 
 quarters, I was among those who were invited to 
 meet him, to give ^*a frank expression of our views 
 on subjects of Church Eeform, etc.'' 
 
 I 've always regretted missing that * ^ show, ' ' 
 but after much wangling I had just succeeded in 
 securing two weeks' leave to visit our Army of 
 Occupation in Germany ; and, having worked night 
 and day for several years headed for the Khine, 
 I felt strong for the trip, so I beat it for Cologne 
 in my Vauxhall limousine and missed my oppor- 
 tunity of giving a frank expression of my views. 
 I have a feeling that had I been present at that 
 Church Eeform session I would have gotten 
 sufficient off my chest to have at least caused the 
 Archbishop to remember our little session. Per- 
 haps he will kindly accept a copy of this book in- 
 stead as a more mature expression on the reforms 
 needed in church. 
 
 In language more forceful than polite I had 
 told my parson's mess mates that the Church of 
 England, speaking generally, was as dead as the 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 61 
 
 busted city of Ypres and that she would continue 
 so until her archbishops, bishops and clergy 
 realized what Jesus meant when he said (Matt. 
 21 : 43), ''The kingdom of God shall be taken from 
 you [Jews], and given to a nation bringing forth 
 the fruits thereof; until they realize that there 
 was nothing on this habitable globe as certain as 
 the ''more sure word of prophecy" ; and until they 
 carried out the injunction to "search the Script- 
 ures'' and "find the sheep that were lost,'' "the 
 sheep of my pasture," (and this flock are men, 
 the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel) ; until then, I told 
 them, their church would remain as dead as a 
 doornail to the essential needs of the people for 
 Bible enlightenment. 
 
 When, however, they see this great truth, 
 as they are due to see very shortly, then indeed 
 will the Bible become the living Word of God; 
 their churches will be filled with thronging multi- 
 tudes hungering and thirsting for the Truth ; and 
 they will be in a position to expound to intel- 
 ligent listeners in a practical way that would in no 
 sense detract from the glory of God, as revealed 
 by Him both through the actions of men and na- 
 tions upon earth now, and as disclosed through 
 both the Old and New Testaments. Then indeed, 
 shall we see that outpouring of the Holy Spirit 
 predicted by Peter, in Acts 2 :17, and the casting 
 aside of the vail which caused blindness in part to 
 happen to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles 
 
62 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 came in, — ^which partly arrived in 1917 when Bri- 
 tain won the Holy Land from heathen Turkey or 
 Edom. God said His people Israel would redeem 
 Jerusalem. Britain redeemed it, therefore Bri- 
 tain is Israel, as God is never mistaken, seeing the 
 end from the beginning. How the church to-day 
 ducks this historical fact is beyond my compre- 
 hension. 
 
 Wake up Christian Churches! 
 Well, what about a waymark for the young- 
 er brother, Ephraim (England) 1 Has he a totem 
 pole showing where he came from? He surely 
 has. In 1819 Mehemet Ali of Egypt presented 
 Cleopatra's Needle to the British Government. 
 Why, I wonder? Why didn't he give it to Italy, 
 Germany, France, Eussia or Spain? Apparently 
 when given it was a white elephant, not the kind 
 with a capacity for eating hay all night and all 
 day that de Wolf Hopper used to sing about, but 
 still ^'some elephant." I can imagine the con- 
 sternation among British officialdom on how to 
 get the ^'blooming thing 'ome," because the wood- 
 en ships in those days were not built to carry 
 elongated pebbles of its size on the open sea. Ap- 
 parently it laid on the Egyptian sands for fifty- 
 eight years, after it was gifted unto the English, 
 as the records show that in 1877 it was loaded into 
 a special clyindrical ship built for it, and started 
 for England, but was lost and supposed to have 
 foundered in the Bay of Biscay. I had heard of 
 
DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 63 
 
 Eev. Dr. Wild stating from his pulpit that it 
 would not be lost forever, but would yet be found 
 and taken to England as a witness of God's care 
 and oversight of His chosen people Israel, located 
 in the Brith-ish or Covenant Isles. 
 
 Evidently the Creator and Governor of this 
 world had a different plan for this waymark than 
 dropping it to the bottom of the sea in Biscay Bay, 
 for, after floating around for some weeks, wrecked 
 and lost, it was sighted, taken in tow, and finally 
 landed at its destination, and to-day stands in the 
 heart of the greatest city of the world, on the 
 Thames Embankment, London, not only as a mark 
 of the place or origin of Ephraim, Israel, but also 
 of the brotherhood between the United States of 
 America and Great Britain, offspring peoples of 
 Joseph % two sons, born in Egypt before the 
 Exodus. Whom God hath joined together, let no 
 man put asunder — neither Sinn Feiner, pro-Ger- 
 man or the synagogue of Satan. As children, the 
 two lads playing around these monuments likely 
 claimed one each, and to-day they have them in 
 reality, one in New York and the other in London. 
 
 For fear that you may kick at having only 
 one waymark for so great a people, may I be per- 
 mitted to point out that America and Britain have 
 all IsraePs heraldry between them; your coins 
 and seals of state carry the marks of your origin. 
 In 1879 Eev. Joseph Wild, preaching in Brooklyn 
 Church, N, Y., gave the marks of Manasseh pos- 
 
64 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 sessed by America, and more recently Kev. J. H. 
 Allen, of California, has published a very readable 
 small book called The National Number and 
 Heraldry of the United States of America, price 
 forty cents. I mention the price because, if you 
 are not Scotch, perhaps you will venture this small 
 amount for it. I can guarantee it will be as 
 stimulating to that wee streak of vanity we all 
 possess as any highball ever swallowed. 
 
 What a strange thing the mind is! The 
 second I wrote that word ^^highbalP my thought 
 switched to a scene in that quaint and beautiful 
 old town of Bailleul in Northern France, now un- 
 fortunately level with the ground, where an army 
 corps had its headquarters in the winter of 1915. 
 The army was not then as dry as it became in 
 1918, and every visitor to an engineer 's mess was 
 invited to **wet his whistle.'' One always-wel- 
 comed-Major, now a Brigadier-General, took his 
 initial dose for **wet feet,' and when the bottle 
 was pushed his way a second time, with the invi- 
 tation ^^have another," he would remark, ^^well' 
 a pigeon can 't fly with one wing. Here 's to you ! ' ' 
 I may say that the aforementioned chap usually 
 had a supply of wings that made him feel like a 
 real bird ere he flew for another turn at duty 
 among the shells. 
 
 You will remember that your nation set up 
 in business of their own in 1776. Due perhaps to 
 your faulty school books, you may not remember 
 
DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 65 
 
 or know that the bulk of British people in England 
 were as opposed to taxation for America as were 
 the British people then in America who rebelled 
 and so strong was this feeling in England that 
 the English king, — one removed from being made 
 in Germany! — ^had to pay Hessians to come over 
 to fight against you; as British soldiers would 
 neither volunteer nor enlist. 
 
 Your American author, Owen Wister, has 
 written a splendid book called A Straight Deal or 
 the Ancient Grudge, which every American and 
 Britisher should read. He points out how 
 America, as well as England, has land-grabbed 
 from the lesser breeds without the law, first from 
 the Indians time after time (though America had 
 to break treaty after treaty to do so), then Flor- 
 ida, Texas, California, Arizona, Nevada, Alaska, 
 Cuba, Phillipines, etc. What Owen Wister does 
 not point out, or perhaps does not know, is that 
 you are only fulfilling your God-given destiny 
 and taking on your inheritance in settling the 
 coasts and waste places of the earth; your 
 treaties were overruled time after time to make 
 you colonize what was then a waste, the southern 
 half of North America. 
 
 '^Ask of me, and I shall give thee [Ephraim my 
 firstborn son] the heathen for thine inheritance, and 
 the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession/^ 
 (Ps. 2:8.) 
 
 "Thus saith the Lord, In an acceptable time have 
 I heard thee [Israel], and in a day of salvation have 
 
66 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 I helped thee : and I will preserve thee, and give thee 
 for a covenant of the people, to establisli the earth, 
 to cause to inherit the desolate heritages." (Isa. 
 49:8.) 
 
 It was a large contract but our forefathers 
 have worked at it for hundreds of years; your 
 Puritan Forefathers knew what it meant to es- 
 tablish their section of the ^^ desolate heritages,'' 
 and furthermore, they believed that they were ful- 
 filling the above particular prophecy and they 
 believed that they were what I say you are, God's 
 Israel, as I will try to show you later on. Their 
 settlement was a little one, but, as was prophe- 
 sied in Isaiah 60:22, ^'A little one shall become a 
 thousand, and a small one a strong nation. ' ' You 
 started, a little one, and you have become a strong 
 nation. 
 
 Well, I started in on waymarks, and I've 
 drifted away from them on these numerous side- 
 lines that to me are so interesting that I set them 
 down, hoping they may help formulate your opin- 
 ion as to who you are, where you come from and 
 what your job is. 
 
 When America won its predicted Indepen- 
 dence, what do you suppose they put on their 
 Great Seal, which was adopted by Congress, June 
 20, 1782? Of course you don't know. Manasseh 
 means in Hebrew '^ for get fulness' ' and Ameri- 
 cans have forgotten the place of their origin 
 where Joseph's son was born in the city of Mem- 
 phis, a few miles from the greatest wonder of 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 67 
 
 the world, the Great Pyramid of Gizeh with its 
 cap-stone missing. The Creator is not a forget- 
 ter, however, and the reverse side of your Great 
 Seal has as its main feature an unfinished Pyra- 
 mid with the All-seeing Eye above it, as another 
 sign or waymark of their home land by which 
 Americans may locate their identity. 
 
 America and Britain, between them, have 
 all the Hebrew Israelitish heraldry fairly evenly 
 distributed, so its up to you to polish up your for- 
 getter and know who you are, how you got here, 
 and what God^s plan is for your next, greatest 
 and last war starting with Turkey and ending in 
 Armageddon. 
 
 Some of us at the Front thought you took 
 **a long time" to get into the recent disturbance 
 in France and Flanders, and we are a bit anxious 
 that you do not let it become a habit. Despite all 
 the talk of *' peace, peace, where there is no 
 peace," some twenty-eight wars are going on as I 
 write this. Despite the man-made League of Na- 
 tions, made apparently without God's guidance 
 or will, made contrary to the divine plan for 
 handling the world-wide problems and bringing 
 peace and goodwill on earth, it will not stop the 
 Bible war schedule being carried out and on 
 time. War is not over; the League of Nations 
 will not stop war. Armageddon has yet to be 
 fought and America must not again be a tail- 
 ender. If they get wise to who they are and 
 
68 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 what the Creator ^s plan is for the next war, they 
 would never lay down the keel of another dread- 
 nought at forty million dollars per ship, because 
 these ships will be wasted and the millions spent 
 on each of them might as well be thrown in mid 
 ocean. More dreadnoughts for America's next 
 war will be quite as useful for her needs as a 
 cow is for climbing telegraph poles, and no more. 
 General Leonard Wood in the January, 1921, 
 Metropolitan describes your blind pre-war condi- 
 tion so accurately that I quote it for your future 
 consideration and guidance: 
 
 *^We had the men, we had the money too! But 
 although God had given us eyes to see, ears to hear, 
 memory to carry and an intelligence to apply the 
 lesson of all time, apparently our eyes had not seen, 
 our ears had not heard, our memory not carried, nor 
 had our intelligence applied the lessons of the past! 
 It was slow in applying those of the present. There 
 was no thought-out plan of action." 
 
 General Wood knew whereof he spake as 
 well as any man on this American Continent. Yet 
 what is your thought-out plan of action to-day? 
 You don't even know that Armageddon has yet 
 to be fought I Whoever christened you Manasseh 
 certainly must have had foreknowledge of your 
 long suit, ^^Forgetfulness.'' 
 
 It has been said by some of your American 
 papers that you were caught with your hands 
 tied in the last war, though your politicians had 
 many years notice from some of your naval offi- 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 69 
 
 cers of how things were heading. In future, do 
 not tempt Providence overmuch, because France 
 and Brother John may not be in a position to 
 hold on and save the world again while Brother 
 Jonathan's politicians are deciding whether or 
 not he is too ** proud to fight,'' and are hushing 
 up everything, trying to be neutral in thought, 
 word and deed, with Europe being murdered by 
 a ruthless soul-destroying antichristian combin- 
 ation out to ham-string that world liberty and 
 freedom which America has always stood for. 
 
 Many, many years ago Germany invented 
 the poison gas of higher criticism and year after 
 year her ministers kicked away first this, that 
 and the other group of people's belief in the in- 
 spiration of the Bible until Martin Luther would 
 not recognize as Christian their creed that might 
 is right, when made in Germany. When made in 
 France, England or at Versailles, of course, 
 might is not right. Their poison gas during the 
 war was no more deadly to the Allies than their 
 poison gas of higher criticism was on their own 
 people before the war and not one half as deadly 
 as their world-wide propaganda against Britain 
 in Eussia, China, India, Egypt, Ireland, United 
 States and elsewhere. Germany and the syna- 
 gogue of Satan well understands that if she can 
 separate Brother John and Brother Jonathan, 
 she may still have a chance to dominate the world, 
 and the world has never seen such efforts to 
 
70 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 drive us apart as are now on foot through their 
 spy system again working overtime all over 
 America and Canada; *'but the wise shall under- 
 stand. ' ' 
 
 When yonr fighting men got to the Front, 
 they showed that they were the equal of Cana- 
 dians, Australians, New Zealanders, South Afri- 
 cans and that staunch old backbone of all the 
 armies, ^^ Tommy,'' Tommy from England, Ire- 
 land, Scotland and from the uttermost parts of 
 the earth. 
 
 Britain's call to her children and their re- 
 sponse was, to my mind, the most sublime pic- 
 ture ever presented on this sphere: men in mil- 
 lions, giving up wealth, position, ease, comfort, 
 their wives and children and everything that men 
 have held worth while in this life, to fight for 
 God in France and Belgium, in order that free- 
 dom should not perish from the face of this earth. 
 I used to pass these fighting men marching up 
 to the Front in the winter of 1916 drenched with 
 the downpouring rain and sleet, foot slogging 
 through the mud on their way up to the trenches, 
 that were then knee-deep in mud, slush, dirt and 
 filth. Only those who have been through that 
 sordid ordeal, the winter of 1915-1916, can ever 
 know the misery to our fighting troops of that 
 winter in front of Ypres. One would never con- 
 sider for a minute putting a dog or a pig or any 
 animal into the quarters our men held through 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 71 
 
 those trying days and months and years. I felt 
 like taking my hat off to them every time I saw 
 them marching in, well knowing that from ten 
 to fifty per cent, of them would not come out, 
 except possibly on a stretcher. I felt that some 
 Power greater than our ordinary clay caused 
 these millions of men to serve God, King and 
 Country in those heartrending years. Again, I 
 am off the main track and heading for a siding. 
 
 Manasseh (Hebrew for forgetfulness) was 
 the thirteenth tribe of Israel, as Ephraim, given 
 the birthright, took his father's (Joseph's) place 
 as the twelfth tribe. Has America any waymarks 
 indicating that they are the thirteenth tribe of 
 Israel?

 If you read J. H. Allen's book* you will 
 locate just thirteen different thirteens that mark 
 Manasseh as the thirteenth tribe. You did not 
 set up in national business until you had thirteen 
 Brit-ish or Covenant colonies to start up with 
 (why not twelve or fourteen?) and you never 
 changed your heraldic number thirteen when you 
 added to your states except by adding additional 
 stars to your flag.

 As Joseph had two sons, a double portion 
 was given him for Ephraim and Manasseh, thus 
 making the thirteen. Now Jacob set Ephraim 
 before Manasseh, this making him twelfth and 
 making Manasseh the thirteenth son and tribe.

CHAPTER IV. 
 
 Moses led the children of Israel out of 
 Egypt about 1492 B.C., and the same number of 
 years after Christ, the American Continent was 
 discovered by a Spanish Hebrew, and it has 
 proved no less a land of deliverance to millions 
 of Israelites and Jews and Gentiles alike. 
 
 When leaving Egypt, the people marched 
 in sections or groups of three tribes on each side 
 of the Ark of the Tabernacle, and here we get 
 the first example of the British ** hollow square,*' 
 used by their fighting troops for centuries to 
 repel attacks. 
 
 Ephraim, Manasseh, and Benjamin, chil- 
 dren and grandchildren of Jacob through Rachel, 
 marched on the west side of the Tabernacle under 
 a banner having a bulPs head on it. The word 
 *^buir' in Hebrew is Engle, and this tribe of 
 Ephraim later, in their wanderings up and down 
 and across Europe, gradually came to be called 
 by the name of their flag, ^^Engles'' or ^^ Angles. *' 
 When Ephraim and their followers invaded Bri- 
 tain, does it seem strange that they called the sec- 
 tion of the Covenant land they took possession of 
 Engle or Bull Land, and that the name has stuck 
 down through the ages in the names of Johnnie 
 
 75 
 
76 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 Bull and his country Engle (or Bull) Land? Also 
 when they came to America they established a 
 new Engle land in Massachusetts. As the Assyr- 
 ians, the modern Huns, have run true to type 
 through several thousand years, so surely does 
 Johnnie Bull or Ephraim carry down from early 
 Bible days his then prevailing characteristics. 
 
 To-day the average Frenchman and most 
 Europeans think the typical Englishman is a 
 proud, haughty mortal, impressed with his own 
 national superiority, which he shows in a man- 
 ner and with an air that offends them all ; but the 
 aforementioned Englishman neither compre- 
 hends nor bothers about it. On the other hand, 
 the Yankee, Canadian or Australian, has quite as 
 large an opinion of his particular importance to 
 this world and will tell you all about it without 
 any side or effort to suppress himself, in a way 
 that isn't done ^*at 'ome'' and that shocks the 
 Englishman to the core; but which the French- 
 mand and European understands and is not of- 
 fended at. Why? 
 
 Isaiah 28:1 says, ^^Woe to the crown of 
 pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim,'' and in the 
 3rd verse for fear they should be overlooked, 
 these characteristics are again repeated: *^The 
 crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall 
 be trodden under feet" — as they were at the time 
 that chapter refers to. 0, drinking stiff-necked 
 Ephraim of Bible days, how are you now? Well, 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 77 
 
 after over three years close association with him 
 in all his moods and tenses, I'm of the opinion 
 that he hasn't changed mnch more than the 
 leopard has his spots. His crown of pride he 
 still wears with an effort hardly concealed, to 
 make himself believe he has none. He would 
 have his drink until he became drunken three 
 thousands years ago and he will have it yet. Some 
 pubs in London are to-day filled with drinking 
 and drunken women. The bulk of the hardy 
 upstanding yeomanry of centuries ago are gone 
 and the war showed such a large percentage of 
 recruits of ^* class 3" calibre that it appalled the 
 country. Had it not been for the old-fashioned 
 lion hearts discovered in those *^ class 3" phy- 
 siques, and brought to the surface by the war, it 
 would have fared much worse with our Allies. 
 
 I once asked a war correspondent why it 
 was the newspapers always plastered Canadians, 
 Australians, New Zealanders, and occasionally 
 the Scotch and Irish with peans of praise for 
 their good fighting work and hardly mentioned 
 the English who formed over sixty-two per cent, 
 of all the British armies on all our fronts. Well, 
 he rather thought, you know, that they didn't ex- 
 pect it. They sure didn't get it anyway! Many 
 times IVe felt cheap at seeing only Canadian 
 troops mentioned by the newspapers in a fight 
 when I knew that three-quarters of the fighting, 
 and splendid fighting, was done by English troops 
 
78 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 on our right and left. "What the English men, and 
 women too, from Devonshire and the ports of 
 England did on our merchantmen and hospital 
 ships and navy, to keep open the sea lanes of traf- 
 fic and supplies for all the armies and for trans- 
 porting American troops, was superb in its daring. 
 Some of these men and women had ship after 
 ship sink under them, sunk by the German sea 
 pirates in their submarines. But when saved, 
 they went again to the nearest port and signed up 
 and so carried on their share in helping Britain 
 win the war. These English civilians shouldered 
 a most hazardous work, that made unrecognized 
 heroes of them all without either glory or praise. 
 
 Drink and its attendant and following 
 evils, bad living conditions, poor housing, etc., 
 has been a national sin and evil in Ephraim 
 (England) for ages, and is and has been and will 
 continue to be paid for at the highest market 
 price — as is always the way. You cannot break 
 God's laws on booze, and get away with it any 
 more than you could with slavery. The mills of 
 God grind slowly but they grind, and the old 
 order has not been changed since it was said, 
 ** Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also 
 reap. ' ^ What crop can Ephraim expect from their 
 liquor bills of 1919 and 1920 f Mr. Geo. E. Wilson 
 of the United Kingdom Alliance published, in the 
 Daily Mail Year Booh, statistics showing an in- 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 79 
 
 crease of 60 per cent, absolute alcohol used in 
 1919 over that used in 1918. 
 
 In 1918 the permitted output of beer, per 
 annum, was 12,500,000 standard barrels at the 
 time of the Armistice; by June of 1919 it had 
 risen to 25,454,000 barrels ; and since then it has 
 been unrestricted and has increased accordingly. 
 Beer and wine have increased 70 per cent, and 
 spirits 43 per cent. In 1918 in the United King- 
 dom they spent £259,300,000 against £166,000,000 
 in 1913 and £386,600,000 for 1919. At $4.80 per 
 pound this would be $1,854,680,000 for beer, wine 
 and spirits for one year.* It hardly seems 
 enough? Only £13.14 shillings per head of popu- 
 lation over twenty-one years of age including 
 a large population of abstainers, — a tax equal to 
 $65.00 a head for booze per annum. Who but 
 England could or would stand for it? Do you 
 think Ephraim has changed his spots much since 
 Isaiah's time when he was labelled ^ ^drunken''? 
 *^ Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone." 
 Hosea 4 : 17 is apparently true to-day. Yes, you 
 can take it that tribal characteristics do pass 
 from generation to generation, in Israel as else- 
 where, and that Johnnie Bull has not been weaned 
 from lapping up more fire-water, strong beer, 
 porter and ale than is good for the space beneath 
 his waistcoat. America has gone dry, as has

 Canada legally, thougli still semiwet actually. 
 Brother John will have to join np or be left be- 
 hind through the inefficiency generated by alcohol. 
 Well might England follow the advice His Ma- 
 jesty gave them some years ago to **wake up." 
 
 If you wish to know if ** stiff-necked'' and 
 ** stubborn generation'' still applies, just live 
 with his regular soldiers for a few years and try 
 to inoculate them with a few new ideas on how 
 to get on with the war. They are as impervious 
 to new ideas as the Sphinx is to pin pricks. I 
 don't know if all the stiff-necked stubborn ones 
 foregathered as regular soldiers or whether it is 
 the army that breeds that particular brand of 
 stubbornness, but they surely were plentiful 
 thereabouts, in my locality at any rate. 'Tis 
 probably this same stubbornness rightly directed 
 that has enabled British soldiers and armies to 
 break the back of every menace to which the 
 world has been subject for hundreds of years. 
 
 When, however, it comes to giving you a 
 square deal, commend me to the aforementioned 
 stiffnecked chap, who, if it wasn't done in Crom- 
 well's time, sees many reasons why it should not 
 be done now. He does not praise you for the 
 finest bit of work you ever did, but then, he 
 doesn't look for praise himself, and he doesn't 
 get any of it either from his superiors ! It is bad 
 form, you know, to give vent to your real feelings ; 
 your face must be as calm and unexpressive as a 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 81 
 
 *^ball of yarn/' Bless me, but I used to shock 
 some of those red-tabbed chaps with major-gen- 
 eral written all over them, when giving vent to 
 my feelings and opinions in good old American 
 *^langwidge" picked up in Wisconsin in the early 
 nineties, handling Swedes and Finlanders; and 
 not entirely disposed of since, as it frequently 
 crops out on provocation at unexpected times, I 
 regret to state. 
 
 That same stubborn persistence is what 
 makes our British Tommy and his officers such 
 splendid fighters. They haven't an idea that they 
 can be licked; they are out to win and they just 
 hang on until the last shot is fired, and then some, 
 and its a sorry day when Tommy is not cheerful 
 over the toughest kind of hard luck. 
 
 Here is a fair sample. One day in the fall 
 of 1916 I was looking at a road on the Hospital 
 Grounds near Contay, in the Somme Area. The 
 officer commanding was receiving several hundred 
 wounded from the Courcelette fight. I met a walk- 
 case hobbling along the duckboard walk — a sorry 
 sight to look at. 
 
 ''Well, Tommy, it looks like Blighty for 
 yours," I said, — Blighty was heaven in those 
 days. 
 
 I wonder if I can picture him for you. He 
 looked forty, dressed in khaki caked with clay 
 and chalk mud from his boots to his neck. He 
 had no hat, his head was all bandaged up, also 
 his neck and his chin; one side of his face bulg- 
 
82 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 ing out of the bandage was three inches bigger 
 than the other and the cheek and eye were black 
 and bhie as if he had been kicked by a mule ; his 
 left arm was not in his tunic, but in a sling; he 
 limped badly, and his pants were slit open from 
 below the knee to the thigh, with white bandage 
 and blood showing through the split trousers. 
 He had a big tag tied to his tunic giving his name, 
 number, regiment, what dope he had had, if any, 
 and where he was billed for ; so that if he dropped 
 anywhere, they had his particulars, while he could 
 give them, and on he would go. He looked so bat- 
 tered up that I asked, 
 
 ^'Well, Tommy, vv^hat did you getf 
 Speaking through his closed teeth he said, 
 *^Well, sir, the Vv'Orst is this 'ere shot through 
 my cheek, that took out all my lower teeth on the 
 right side and came out through the side of my 
 neck. ' ' 
 
 Then there were two scalp wounds with 
 shrapnel, chin cut, wrist broken or sprained — 
 I Ve forgotten which — and a bullet had gone clean 
 through the muscles of his right leg above the 
 knee. There he was limping along the duck- 
 boards, waiting for the ambulance to take him to 
 the hospital train, and no one paying any more at- 
 tention to him, after he v/as through the receiv- 
 ing tent, than if he was an army mule. I 'm afraid 
 I must have forgotten my temporary army train- 
 ing and let a little feeling slip into my voice when 
 I remarked, 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 83 
 
 *^Well, you sure got a full dose.'' 
 
 **01i! I'm damn lucky, sir! All my mates 
 were killed." 
 
 Can you beat it for real spirit? Tommy, 
 Tommy, from the uttermost parts of tlie earth, 
 with his unquenchable spirit won the war, with 
 God's help, then only after every Anglo-Saxon 
 nation had offered national prayers asking God's 
 help and guidance in those stern days in the 
 spring and summer of 1918 on the Amiens Front. 
 Get that? You must, because it is the key to the 
 offensive that won the war ! 
 
 Most people at home v/ould feel that they 
 were badly used under foregoing conditions ; but 
 there was Tommy, asking no favors and surely 
 getting none, and feeling that he was **damn 
 lucky" to be alive. All his mates were dead, 
 torn to pieces by shells, drowned in mud and 
 water-filled shell-holes as they tried to navigate 
 their way back to the dressing stations. He could 
 look after himself, wounded as he was; and his 
 duty was to do so to his full limit and until he 
 dropped — then it became the duty of the stretcher- 
 bearers, and they took on the job if they saw him 
 fall, or if they found him. 
 
 That's another thing for which we have to 
 take off our hats to Johnnie Bull. lie is strong 
 on duty — duty that must be done ; and lie is strong 
 for law, order and liberty. I grew to love him 
 like a brother, because I could see him as he never 
 
84 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 could see himself. Bless his whole tribe, with 
 his faults and his strong fair-dealing proclivities ! 
 He has carried his section of God's people for- 
 ward by a way he knew not, and will yet lead 
 them still further forward until the millennium 
 ushers in a newer order, which I hope many of us 
 will live to see (after we finish Armageddon) ; 
 because, though I am no ^ ' spring chicken, ' ' I have 
 hopes of serving in Armageddon as a roadbuilder 
 and I hope to start a few years ahead instead of 
 having to do everything in the heat of war, as it 
 could be done so much easier now, just as Fritz 
 built his strategical railways to Belgium and 
 French borders before 1914. 
 
 The British regular army has on their list 
 doing active service in forsaken outposts of the 
 Empire, such as the hills of India, etc., men of 
 independent means by the thousands, who leave 
 wife and family and serve solely at the call of 
 duty. They accept as a regular diet what we 
 civilians turned our hands to for a few years at 
 the call of our King or, in your case, at the call 
 of your country. What the British regular officer 
 and British civil servants have done for the 
 heathen for centuries is beyond praise ; and mark 
 this : you, Manasseh, are quite as much benefited 
 by it as is John Bull & Company, because wher- 
 ever Britain paves the way at the cost of her 
 treasure and lives, America is as free to follow 
 and trade, as is Britain, Canada or other 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 85 
 
 sections of our glorious heritage. May bles- 
 sings rest on those thousands of civil ser- 
 vants and officers of His Majesty's army and 
 navy, who for several hundred years have been 
 and are now carr^dng along the Creator's work 
 in those waste places of the earth and among the 
 heathen, carrying with them justice and fairdeal- 
 ing, honor, truth and duty and goodwill to all 
 men, be they black, white or yellow ! 
 
 President-elect Warren G. Harding wrote 
 to the Chairman of the Sulgrave Institute recent- 
 ly a letter that places him in the statesman class. 
 
 "Destiny has made it a historical fact that the 
 English-speaking peoples have been the instrument 
 through which civilization has been flung to the far 
 corners of the globe. 
 
 "I am impressed not so much by the glory that 
 English-speaking peoples may take to themselves, 
 as by the profound duties that God has thrust upon 
 them; — duties of being restrained, tolerant and just. 
 
 "These duties will find their greatest recognition 
 in a united, unshakable friendship and understanding 
 and oneness of purpose — not for the exclusion from 
 brotherhood of others, but for a better brotherhood 
 flowing towards others." 
 
 Israel was to be God's servant. His instru- 
 ment to take civilization, law, and ordered liberty 
 to the ends of the earth. If, as President Hard- 
 ing says, ^ * English-speaking peoples have been 
 the instrument " to do just what Israel was to do, 
 
86 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 then, the English-speaking people are Israel. 
 President Warren G. Harding, elected head of 
 God^s ** great people,^' has spoken the truth. 
 
 Your President plainly recognizes that 
 God has thrust this duty upon us English-speak- 
 ing peoples; and he does well. I wonder if he 
 will be able to recognize the connection between 
 his words and these inspired words of the Bible : 
 
 "But thou, Israel, art my servant, Jacob whom 
 I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend. 
 Thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, 
 and called thee from the chief men thereof, and said 
 unto thee. Thou are my servant; I have chosen thee, 
 and not cast thee away. Fear thou not; for I am 
 with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I 
 will strengthen thee ; yea, I will help thee ; yea I will 
 uphold thee with the right hand of my righteous- 
 ness. . . . For I, the Lord thy God, will hold thy 
 right hand!, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help 
 thee. Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of 
 Israel; I will help thee, saith the Lord, and thy re- 
 deemer, the Holy One of Israel . . . and thou 
 shalt rejoice in the Lord, and shalt glory in the Holy 
 One of Israel.^' (Isa. 41 :8-10, 13, 14, 16.) 
 
 When President Harding realizes who we 
 are then that better brotherhood, that light to all 
 peoples which we were commissioned to carry will 
 get the impulse that has been lacking up to date 
 in America's dealings with the world outside her 
 borders. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 87 
 
 The blindness in part which was to happen 
 to national Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles 
 came in is now lifted and President-elect Hard- 
 ing and every other American is in a position to 
 say as Paul did, ^*I also am an Israelite, of the 
 seed of Abraham,'' who was God's friend.

CHAPTER V. 
 
 One of the most pathetic statements ever 
 made fell from the lips of Nurse Edith Cavell 
 under sentence of death in a German prison. She 
 was so thankful for those ten weeks she was in 
 jail, for the quiet, and the time to think and rest. 
 Life had been so hurried. She expressed truly 
 what most mortals feel as we gallop with rush 
 and bustle through this hurried life of striving 
 and strife. And all for what! 
 
 The following report was made by the 
 British chaplain, H. Sterling Gohan, to Mr. Brand 
 Whitlock, the United States Ambassador who 
 served America and the whole civilized world so 
 well, during the war years at Brussels. A charm- 
 ing man with the most winsome of manners, he 
 secured many favors from Germany, due to his 
 personality. I had met him first when he was 
 giving Toledo, Ohio, good government as its 
 mayor and again after the Armistice when I was 
 welcomed in his sanctum at Brussels; and I suc- 
 ceeded for an hour in chasing some of the brain 
 fag from a very, very tired war-worn American 
 public servant, who held on to his job amidst dis- 
 couragements that would have daunted most 
 people.

 Report of Edith CavelFs Execution by Germany 
 
 Made to United States Ambassador 
 
 "On Monday evening, the 11th of October, I was 
 admiitted by special passport from the German auth- 
 orities to the prison of St. Giles where Miss Edith 
 Cavell had been confined for ten weeks. The final 
 sentence of Death had been given that afternoon. 
 
 "To my astonishment and relief, I found my 
 friend perfectly calm and resigned, but this could 
 not lessen the tenderness and intensity of feeling on 
 either part during the last interview of almost an 
 hour. 
 
 "Her first word® to me were upon a matter con- 
 cerning herself personally, but the solemn assevera- 
 tion which accompanied them was made expressly 
 in the light of God and Eternity. She then added 
 that she wished all her friends to know that she wil- 
 lingly gave her life for her country, and said, 'I have 
 no fear nor shrinking: I have seen Death so often 
 that it is not strange or fearful to me.' She further 
 said 7 thank God for this ten weeks quiet hefore the 
 end. Life has always been so hurried and full of dif- 
 ficulty. This time of rest has been a great mercy. 
 They have all been kind to me here, but I would say, 
 standing in view of God and Eternity, I realize 
 that Patriotism is not enough. ... I must have 
 no hatred towards any one.' 
 
 "We partook of the Holy Communion together 
 and she received the Gospel message of consolation 
 with all her heart. At the close of the little service 
 I began to repeat the words 'Abide with me' and she 
 joined softly in the end. We sat quietly talking 
 until it was time for her to go. She gave me parting 
 messages for relatives and friends. She spoke of her 
 soul's need at the moment and she received the assur- 
 ance of God's words as only a Christian can do. Then 
 I said 'Good-bye,' and she smiled and said, 'We shall 
 meet again!' 
 
92 DESTINY OF BEITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 "The German Military Chaplain was with her 
 at the end and afterwards gave her Christian burial. 
 He told me : 
 
 'She was brave and bright to the last. She pro- 
 fessed her Christian Faith and that she was glad to 
 die for her country. She died like a hero.' 
 
 H. STERLING GOHAN, 
 
 British Chaplain, Brussels. 
 
 Thus died a quiet, thoughtful, unemotional 
 English heroine, a martyr to duty, a martyr to 
 Germany's system of f rightfulness. Could 
 Assyrian Germany ever understand our Anglo- 
 Saxon breed, they never would have shot a nurse, 
 a woman who had nursed their own soldiers as 
 well as Belgians, French and British. Her death 
 caused more men to enlist against such brutality 
 all over Christendom, than any single appeal 
 made to the hearts of white men. 
 
 There are thousands who look back upon 
 the years spent in those semi- jails in France and 
 Belgium, dugouts, saps, trenches, and billets, with 
 the A.E.F., B.E.F., and C.E.F., who, like Nurse 
 Cavell, were most thankful for the chance it gave 
 them to rest and get their thoughts up to date. 
 
 With Death looking for you or your friends 
 from any and all points of the compass, from 
 above and below, from in front and behind, we 
 still had thousands of opportunities, more than 
 ever came to us in our business at home, to calmly 
 think and wonder over the riddle of this universe. 
 What was the meaning of this stupendous war 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 93 
 
 with its millions of lives passing forward to their 
 next stopping station; with the awful waste of 
 cities ; of forests ; of fertile lands ; of munitions ; 
 and the waste of those splendid fighting men who, 
 at the call of the wee small voice within, took 
 upon themselves lighting tasks under conditions 
 such as men never before in the history of the 
 world have fought and held and won? 
 
 I remember one morning going into a Cana- 
 dian casulty clearing station at Remy Siding, 
 just behind Poperinghe, to see why a Parde had 
 pinched several of my road menders. He took 
 me around behind the semi-permanent hospital 
 huts, and I saw a dozen huge tents with their sides 
 all rolled up, so that every possible breath of air 
 could reach them. There lay eight hundred gas- 
 poisoned soldiers, who had come in during the 
 night; the regular hospital cots being full, the 
 large tents had to be hastily improvised to ac- 
 commodate them. 
 
 The battalion had been up doing front-line 
 work at night. They had left their rifles, great- 
 coats, and gas-masks a short distance in the rear 
 when the Huns sent over one of those choice 
 marks of his Kulture, poison gas, and it drenched 
 the whole battalion with its deadly fumes. As I 
 looked upon those hundreds of stricken men on 
 cots and stretchers and on the tent floors, so many 
 with distorted faces, frothing from the mouth, 
 their bodies writhing, their faces turning green 
 
94 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 and black, gasping for their last few breaths of 
 life, those men, who a few hours before had been 
 pictures of health, now dying before our eyes like 
 flies, one wondered anew what was God's plan in 
 this war? "When would it end and how? Sher- 
 man knew that war was hell; but this war de- 
 veloped more kinds of hell than Sherman or civil- 
 ized people could possibly have conceived of until 
 they learned to what lengths German Kultur 
 could go in infamy while endeavouring to shove 
 their mailed fist down our throats and so prove 
 that might is right. 
 
 The Padre had taken my road-menders to 
 dig the last resting-place — a long open trench six 
 feet wide — for fifty-two men who had died that 
 morning, as he only had men sufficient to dig 
 graves for their average death rate of from five 
 to ten per day. 
 
 Since 1884 1 had believed that that inspired 
 Book, our much neglected Bible, contained the his- 
 tory of God's chosen people, Israel; that they 
 were the ** stone kingdom'' of Daniel's vision; 
 and that they were God's battle-axe and shield 
 and His weapons of war to subdue the Babylon 
 nations of earth opposed to His rule. Do you won- 
 der that during the war I became interested anew 
 in trying to study the divine plan for the 
 universe, the mystery of God I 
 
 It seems strange, but it is true, that life 
 at the Front at times left every business man 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 95 
 
 there more leisure to thinh, with a clear mind, 
 than he ever before possessed; one was not 
 bothered about payrolls, profits, rising freight 
 rates, the '^Eed" menace, the strikers' union, 
 irate shareholders, or the thousand and one daily 
 and hourly disturbing things that drift into one's 
 office at home in a big city. He just did his job, 
 whatever it was ; thanked Providence if he had a 
 dry billet, behind a brick wall if possible, to pro- 
 tect him from flying shrapnel and air bombs; 
 hoped that the moonlight schedule would be 
 cloudy, because Fritz always sent his bombing 
 planes over every bright night ; kept his prayers 
 said fairly well up to date, if he said any ; and left 
 the rest to his Maker with a peace in his soul 
 that passed the understanding of our friends at 
 home. 
 
 Every moonlight night at the Front, dur- 
 ing 1917 and 1918, Fritz made a point of air-raid- 
 ing trips over our back as well as front areas, un- 
 til we grew to hate the moon as the devil is al- 
 leged to hate holy water. On occasions they made 
 as many as six raids throughout the night and it 
 took strong nerves and a tired body to sleep 
 through them and get a night's rest for next 
 day's work. 
 
 Often y/hen walking home to my billet on 
 those beautiful moonlight nights, as I looked up 
 to the heavens and saw those ten thousand stars, 
 each star a world; I wondered how it was possible 
 
96 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 for any man who could run a business or a section 
 of one to think that those wonderful worlds ran 
 on schedule without a plan and without a creator. 
 Such a man certainly had more faith than I pos- 
 sessed to think that such a thing were possible or 
 that this one world of God's big universe *"just 
 grew" like Topsy and ran itself without a Creator 
 or without His laws and guidance. How long 
 would your little business run without an execu- 
 tive head or without rules and plans for carrying 
 on laid down by its head I Then what about the 
 universe ? 
 
 I thought then and many times since that 
 if our business men could only get that peace of 
 mind, that repose of soul that we enjoyed at the 
 Front, they would be able to see things in their 
 proper perspective; and that if they had God's 
 plan for our national guidance in their think 
 boxes, they would not need to worry much over 
 the ^'Eeds" or the dozens of other ills that will 
 afflict the whole world during the next fifteen 
 years — ^years that will try the souls of the stout- 
 est men of this American Continent, because it is 
 plainly foretold that the world is to go through 
 such a time of trouble as never was on earth be- 
 fore, of which the late war was but a preliminary. 
 
 At present every business man knows this 
 old world is almost upside doA\m and turned in- 
 side out, and millions wonder what will happen 
 next and how order can ever be restored from the 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 97 
 
 present (1920) chaotic condition all over the 
 world. On this continent, less than on any other, 
 it is true at present, but even here there is seeth- 
 ing unrest ready to explode in spots. 
 
 We are in the habit of looking upon many 
 of our big captains of industry with considerable 
 awe, men who succeed in planning and working 
 huge plants for production outputs at the lowest 
 unit cost, etc. We think they are *^some men^' 
 and we, so to speak, take off our hats to our 
 Schwabs, Fords, Hoovers, Morgans ,and the rest 
 of them (I understand there are some who do not 
 take off their hats to the men who scrambled your 
 railroads for several years, — but let that go.) 
 
 Well, I'll bet not one in a thousand knows 
 
 that there is a plan, a business plan, foretold and 
 
 laid down thousands of years ago and that we 
 
 are working to that divine plan and schedule in 
 
 our wars, our smashing of nations, our pulling 
 
 down of kings and dynasties and strange as it 
 
 may seem, we are working on time even to the 
 
 year and to the month and the day according to 
 
 these prophecies foretold thousands of years ago. 
 
 Sounds a bit fishy doesn't it? But, as we ob- 
 served before, truth is stranger than fiction, and 
 this is truth. 
 
 About eight years ago, returning from a 
 Mediterranean trip, sitting next to a chunky little 
 Johnnie Bull Englishman on board ship we had 
 
98 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 many talks about gardening, yachting, etc. One 
 evening after three days at sea, I told him about 
 the English being the Ephraim tribe of Israel 
 and was a bit surprised to note that he was not 
 properly shocked. We discussed it pro and con 
 and finally turning to me, he said, *^You know, 
 my old parson (who is a long-haired chap) has 
 been giving me that dope for the last fifteen 
 years, but I never before heard of a short-haired 
 intelligent business man who had any faith or 
 took any stock in it!'' 
 
 We adjourned to the smoking room and 
 over a hot toddy, or was it two? — ^he made me a 
 life member or vice-admiral or something or other 
 in the British Navy League at 20 quid a throw. 
 Being Scotch I remember that part of it as I had 
 to mail him a cheque when I got home. I also 
 remember that I tried to head him off promising, 
 that if he would join Mrs. Pankhurst's Suffrage 
 League, which at that time was fairly busy heav- 
 ing half bricks at Members of Parliament and 
 otherwise making their lives a bit uncertain, that 
 I would join his Navy League in any capacity for 
 which my age, big feet and fondness for water 
 would qualify me. Not carried ! 
 
 Having tried his Anglo-Saxon-Israel 
 Identity on numerous friends and acquaintances, 
 I have noted with real enjoyment the quick search- 
 ing glance they all give you to see if you have 
 been drinking, — and in these arid days! Then 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 99 
 
 you see that far-away look steal into their eyes, 
 denoting that you have them off their feet and in 
 deep water and they are afraid you'll ask them 
 some question that will show that the Bible and 
 they are strangers. Not that I blame them, be- 
 cause, without the proper key, the Bible is about 
 as interesting to a business man as an Algebra is 
 to a ten-year-old school boy. 
 
 Israel is the Hebrew for *^ ruling with God'' 
 and is mentioned in despatches in the Bible some 
 2543 times, and over two-thirds of the Old and 
 New Testament are written about Israel. With- 
 out the key and history showing who and where 
 the nation Israel is, a fine healthy chance any 
 ordinary man has to understand where the 
 prophets are heading him; and yet that is where 
 our churches and parsons leave us. The church is 
 not mentioned that I have seen in the Old Testa- 
 ment and only 110 times in the New; so the par- 
 sons who would appropriate to the church the 
 promises made to the nation Israel by the Creator 
 would, except for this ignorance, seem to me to 
 qualify under Kevelation 22 :18, 19. Most min- 
 isters I 've talked it over with know as much about 
 Israel as a cat knows about his grandfather ! They 
 can give you several conjectures as to Israel being 
 Jews, but unfortunately they are surmises only. 
 They have guessed wrong, with the result that 
 the living Word of God is as dead as a doornail 
 to the average business man, the man who is 
 
100 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 accustomed to attend church regularly; but the 
 blind leaders of the blind have him where he 
 thinks he cannot use his everyday methods of ap- 
 plying his gray matter to the subject and reason 
 his way out or see his way out, and the fewness 
 of these business men in the churches all over 
 the land is the proof of this wrong reading and 
 teaching of God's Word to His People, Israel, by 
 semi blind shepherds. If my parson friends 
 think this language too strong may I plead in ex- 
 tenuation that I'm only reiterating a small part 
 of what the Bible calls them. I venture to think 
 that they would pass a sleepless night if they will 
 study what is promised for their neglect to find 
 the flock of his pasture by the various prophets. 
 
 In the 34th chapter of Ezekiel there is a 
 solemn indictment of the shepherds of Israel (and 
 I figure that these pastors of ours are the shep- 
 herds referred to) who have not sought for the lost 
 sheep, but who have trod down the pastures and 
 fouled the water provided for God 's flock by their 
 clouded reasoning and higher criticism. Eead in 
 the 31st verse who the flock are: ^^And ye, my 
 flock, the flock of my pasture, are men and I am 
 your God, saith the Lord God." 
 
 Who is so blind as Israel to-day — the 
 Anglo-Saxon Celts? When Americans realize 
 their identity and their inheritance, there will 
 sure be some rattling of dry bones in their section 
 of Israel or I miss my guess. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 101 
 
 Man is naturally a;rfeUgipVf? ankn^aVand 
 given religious propositions^ cHafc lie can see or 
 reason out and put together in a reks^d^A^y^J, 
 he responds quickly. I know it, because IVe 
 ** tried it on the dog/' so to speak, with many of 
 my business associates and friends. True you will 
 meet an occasional friend who seems to think he 
 knows more about the Bible than the Creator, and 
 when you express a belief in the Bible as a true 
 history, he will trot out some threadbare old 
 question like ^^Do you believe the whale swallowed 
 Jonah f I never had any difficulty in believing 
 that a Creator who could raise the dead, feed the 
 children of Israel in the wilderness, and run this 
 universe, could preserve Jonah in a live whale. 
 The trouble is many men wish to size up the 
 Creator as being in about their category as far 
 as achievement is concerned ! 
 
 I believe in the divine inspiration of Old 
 and New Testaments and furthermore that days 
 and dates set down therein have been proved to 
 be correct, as checked by astronomical time. I 
 have before me ten charts of chronology without 
 a broken link from Adam to Christ. The author, 
 Daniel Parker, of Lightcliffe, Halifax, England, 
 spent fifteen years searching the Scriptures and 
 other histories and says **In my life's history of 
 researches I have found no history equal the 
 splendid Chronological History [His-Story, — 
 God's story] of the Bible, all of which is in accord 
 
102 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 with^ Astronomical time and the literal fulfilment of 
 God's covenants to His People, Israel/' I have 
 used Mr. Parker's work for the dates herein. 
 
 Now keep it fixed in your head that you, 
 Brother Jonathan, are just as much a part of 
 God's Israel as is Brother John Bull & Co., and 
 that Brother Jonathan is the eldest son of Joseph 
 and that Jacob passed to both these lads, Ephraim 
 (England) and Manasseh (U. S. A.) the wonder- 
 ful Joseph's blessings. 
 
 Bead Moses' speech to Israel, Deuteronomy 
 33 :4 : ^ * Moses commanded us a law. ' ' What sort 
 of a law? **Even the inheritance of the congre- 
 gation of Jacob. ' ' Who were the congregation of 
 Jacob? They were Jacob's seed, Israel, who were 
 gathered or congregated there, thus named after 
 Jacob had wrestled with the angel and had so 
 become a Prince of God or '^ruling with God" as 
 Young's Concordance has it, which is the meaning 
 of his new name, Israel. What was the in- 
 heritance that was to be a law for them? The 
 American and British portion, Moses' blessing of 
 Joseph, is found in Deuteronomy 33 :13-17. This 
 included many blessings which we may enumer- 
 ate as follows : 
 
 ^Blessed of the Lord be his land 
 For the precious things of heaven 
 For the dew and 
 For the deep that coucheth beneath 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 103 
 
 And for the precious fruits brought forth by 
 
 the sun 
 And for the precious things put forth by the 
 
 moon 
 And for the chief things of the ancient 
 
 mountains 
 And for the precious things of the lasting hills 
 And for the precious things of the earth and 
 
 fulness thereof 
 And for the good will of him that dwelt in the 
 
 bush. ' 
 
 The record continues : 
 
 ^'het the blessings come upon the head of Joseph, 
 and upon the top of the head of him that was separ- 
 ated from his brethren. His glory is like the firstling 
 of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of 
 unicorns : with them he shall push the people to- 
 gether to the ends of the earth : and they are the ten 
 thousands of Ephriam, and they are the thousands 
 of Manasseh." 
 
 You know how John Bull got his name 
 when he marched with Moses under the bull or 
 Engle flag and then bequeathed it to his country, 
 Engle-land. You will have noticed his coat of 
 arms : a lion and a unicorn, rampant, standing on 
 a scroll, on which are the words '^Dieu et nion 
 droit' ^ — God and my right. What right? My 
 birthright — see I Chronicles 5:2: **But the birth- 
 right was Joseph 's.'* The lion and unicorn are 
 supporting a shield and on this shield are the 
 
104 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 words, "Honi soit qui mat y pense" — shamed be 
 lie who thinks evil of it. 
 
 *^ Israel [^'ruling with God'^] then shall 
 dwell in safety alone '^ — as they have in the Brit- 
 ish Isles. ' ' The foundation of Jacob shall be upon 
 a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall 
 drop down dew.'' The lands and gardens of 
 Britain, are lands of corn and wine, and has the 
 dew that keeps its pastures as none other in the 
 world that I have ever seen. 
 
 "^Happy art thou, Oh Israel: who is like unto 
 thee, people saved by the Lord, the shield of thy 
 help, and who is the sword of thy excellency! and 
 thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee; and 
 thou shalt tread upon their high places" (vs. 29) — 
 and we have ! 
 
 Ferrar Fenton's translation into modern 
 English from the original Hebrew for verses 28 
 and 29 reads: 
 
 "Israel dwells alone, and secure, 
 
 Jacobus spring in a land of the corn and fruit, 
 
 And his skies will drop down dew ! 
 
 Blest Israel! who is like you? 
 
 A Victor Race for Jehovah, — 
 
 Your shield, your help, and your sword! 
 
 You shall grow, and subdue your foes. 
 
 And advance on their hills like a road^" 
 
 The British fill every item of the above 
 specifications and Americans were and still are 
 Brith-ish i.e.. Covenant men, as I will prove later. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 105 
 
 We Anglo-Saxons have been a victor race, and 
 Jehovah has been our help, onr shield, and our 
 sword; Israel have always subdued their foes. 
 Our enemies, both open and secret, have been 
 found liars whose words were full of deceit and 
 whose written engagements have been scraps of 
 paper; and this applies to more than Germany. 
 
 You will note in verse 17 that the work of 
 Joseph ^s descendants was to push the people 
 together, not apart, to the ends of the earth, and 
 both Britain and the United States have been on 
 that job for hundreds of years. They have both 
 worked for the unity of peoples. Take India 
 where there are sixteen nations or sections and all 
 religions ; we are keeping the peace there and have 
 tried to bring peace, law, order and justice to all 
 nations they came in touch with or who were 
 under their influence, the world over. 
 
 Manasseh (U.S.A.) means for get fulness 
 and it would seem as if America had forgotten 
 the inheritance promised them which was to be a 
 law to them and their Brother John for ever, 
 though they have provided the melting pot for all 
 nations, languages and religions in their little red 
 school house where one language for all is taught 
 and that is the language of the Covenant people.

CHAPTEE VI. 
 
 Now, if you believe in the inspiration of 
 onr Bible, you will understand from Moses' 
 speech in the previous chapter that somewhere 
 on this round earth are a people who have the 
 choicest inheritance ever bequeathed to men, and 
 further, there was no time limit mentioned when 
 this unlimited inheritance would not be in force. 
 
 Every prophecy in the Bible inspired by 
 God has come to pass, or it must and will, in its 
 proper and ordained time. Moses' correct 
 estimate of the character of Joseph and his 
 knowledge of divine law enabled him to foresee 
 the great prosperity which was bound to come to 
 the children of Joseph, and he knew that his words 
 were to be fulfilled in the same way that Jesus 
 knew, when he said, *^ Heaven and earth shall pass 
 away, but my words shall not pass away." Christ 
 came not to do away with the law but to fulfil the 
 law and the prophets. 
 
 If you were asked to-day, ^* Where are the 
 nations who have the choicest blessings ever 
 vouchsafed to mankind and what nations have car- 
 ried God's blessing of peace as laid down by 
 Moses?" who would you say had them? Would 
 
 108 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 109 
 
 you say that our splendid ally, France, had in- 
 herited them when she has been overrun time after 
 time throughout the ages? — as when she had her 
 Eeign of Terror and when she was bled white by 
 Napoleon, etc., etc. ? Would you say it was Eussia 
 that enjoyed all the good things of this earth 
 while she was ground under by the Czars for 
 centuries and to-day groans under a more dia- 
 bolical regime than ever before afflicted her peo- 
 ple? Is it Poland, dismembered for centuries? 
 Is it Austria-Hungry, the ramshackle empire now 
 reaping the fruits of her years of subservience to 
 Germany? Is it Italy, overrun by invaders 
 century after century? Is it Spain, Bulgaria, 
 Servia, Greece, Turkey or Iceland? Is it Africa 
 or China that fill these specifications by having 
 God's choicest gifts bestowed upon them as 
 nations? Any intelligent man can verify proph- 
 ecies of the Bible by histories written hundreds 
 and thousands of years since these promises were 
 made by Moses, and can see that, of all the citizens 
 of this round earth, to one people and only one do 
 these blessings of Jehovah apply, — namely, to the 
 Anglo-Saxon commonwealths or nations of which 
 the United States of America is such a large 
 factor. 
 
 If any of your great-grandfathers had be- 
 queathed you the wealth of a small portion of the 
 everlasting hills now controlled by, say, the Gug- 
 genheimers, you would, I imagine, be scratching 
 
110 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 gravel until you could establish your descent from 
 the aforementioned great-grandfather. Well, the 
 Guggenheimers have not the billionth part of 
 America's national estate bequeathed to the eldest 
 son of Joseph and his heirs as depicted in the 
 33rd chapter of Deuteronomy. You were to have 
 an immense assortment of wealth : your land was 
 to be blessed in everyway and you do not have to 
 die to obtain it; you get it right on earth, as it is 
 the visible tangible wealth that your banks lend 
 money upon. Surely America has in her portion 
 the wealth of the dew and rain ; the wealth of the 
 precious fruits brought forth by the sun and the 
 moon ; the wealth of fertile fields and valleys ; the 
 wealth of coal fields, oil fields, copper, silver, gold 
 and the blessings of peaceful work. 
 
 As a parcel is tied with a cord, so are the 
 tribes of Israel. Jacob is the cord that ties to- 
 gether God's inheritance, according to Deuter- 
 onomy 32:9: ^^For the Lord's portion is his peo- 
 ple; Jacob is the lot (marg. **cord") of his in- 
 heritance. ' ' 
 
 When Germany and her partners in sin, 
 seen and unseen, * ^ the house of the evildoers ' ' that 
 *Svork iniquity," set out to break the cord of 
 understanding and goodwill that binds all Anglo- 
 Saxondom together, what was the result! Just 
 what the Psalmist said (Ps. 2:2-4) : 
 
 2."The kings of the earth set themselves, and 
 the rulers take counsel together [Germany, Austria, 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 111 
 
 ^; i^ '" : ^> 
 
 Turkey], against the Lord, and against his anointed 
 [Israel], saying, 
 
 3. "Let us break their bands asunder, and cast 
 away their cords from us. 
 
 4. "He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh : 
 the Lord shall have them in derision." 
 
 Were they held in derision by the Creator? 
 It certainly looks like it. Germany lost all those 
 waste places of the earth that she had spent years 
 and billions of marks in building up, besides losing 
 Alsace and Loraine, etc., etc. Her co-partner, the 
 ramshackle empire, is dismembered and dying. 
 Turkey has lost about everything she held dear, 
 ]\Iecca, Jerusalem and Constantinople. 
 
 Did they break the bands of the Lord^s 
 anointed (Israel) ? Well, not that you would 
 notice ! Ask of that young Prince of Israel, David, 
 Edward, Prince of Wales, if the bands of the Em- 
 pire were broken asunder by the assaults of the 
 ** evildoers'' who **work iniquity.'' Kather has 
 the war brought to the attention of all who speak 
 the English tongue the fact that if the world is to 
 be saved from anarchy, they, with God's help, are 
 the only peoples who can accomplish such a 
 stupendous task. 
 
 I am willing to stake my reputation as a 
 business man on Moses' blessing pronounced 
 upon Joseph's descendants, the American and 
 British sections of Israel. 
 
 If we find that the Bible promises of over 
 three thousand years ago about the material 
 
112 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 things we were to receive on this earth have been 
 fulfilled, then one may fairly deduce that those 
 spiritual promises not yet fulfilled on this earth 
 and to be fulfilled hereafter must certainly come 
 true. Is that not a reasonable deduction? Do 
 these fulfillments not prove that the Bible is the 
 inspired book it professes to he? — ^because three 
 thousand years is a long stretch to look ahead and 
 forecast a great people ^s material prosperity. 
 Leastwise it seems so to my way of thinking. 
 
 Note that Israel was to be set on high 
 above all the nations of the earth. 
 
 '^And Moses and the priests the Levites spake 
 unto all Israel, saying, Take heed, and hearken, 
 Israel; this day thou are become the people of the 
 Lord thy God. . . . The Lord thy God will set 
 thee [Israel] on high above all nations of the earth." 
 (Deut. 27:9; 28:1.) 
 
 This you see was not a church set on high, 
 but was a nation to be set above all other nations. 
 Where, I ask, is that nation to-day that is set on 
 high above all others! Has the promise failed! 
 Just read through the promises made to all Israel 
 in the foregoing two chapters and the punish- 
 ments they were to receive for not obeying His 
 commandments. They have indeed come true as 
 the ages have rolled round. 
 
 See Deuteronomy 30:1-3; and it won^t hurt 
 you, even unaccustomed as you may be to Bible 
 reading, to read right through to Chapter 33:23,

 where Moses prophesied the benefits coining to the 
 descendants of your forefather and first food con- 
 troller, Joseph, to you who are his seed. 
 
 Has America received the blessings of the 
 Lord and the *^ precious things of heaven''? They 
 have received God's laws and ordered liberty with 
 the largest measure of peace of any nation and 
 have been blessed from their earliest beginning — 
 I can hear you murmur, ^^Yes, they have," even 
 at this distance. 
 
 Has America received the blessings of the 
 *^dew'* and the ^^deep that coucheth beneath [the 
 springs and water tables below]"? No country 
 has been more blessed with the dew, the rain and 
 the deep that coucheth beneath. An American 
 famine for lack of these things has been unknown 
 in your history while other nations have not been 
 so blessed. 
 
 Has America been blessed '^for the preci- 
 ous fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the 
 precious things put forth by the moon"! Why 
 certainly they have. You are shipping your sur- 
 plus bananas, Oregon apples, California prunes, 
 olives, and raisins, Florida and California oranges 
 and lemons all over the earth, and your Maine 
 potato crops are known the continent over, while 
 your corn is the wonder of the world, not to men- 
 tion your wheat, oats, rye, etc. 
 
 And **for the chief things of the ancient 
 mountains, and for the precious things of the 
 
114 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 lasting hills ' ' ? Well you have them ! A glance at 
 the maps opp. pp. 114-115 shows where we get off 
 on oil in the coming fuel age, and for an essential 
 like coal, a glance at the map shows that Brother 
 John and Brother Jonathan have the lion^s share. 
 Take nickle; I am told that 95 per cent, of the 
 world's supply comes from Canada to New York. 
 Take copper; America absolutely produces and 
 controls the world output. Take zinc ; take almost 
 anything; and it is the same story. Take a key 
 essential like steel. **The United States Steel 
 Corporation alone with a capital of $575,000,000 
 makes more steel than all Europe and they are 
 only one of the many steel companies doing busi- 
 ness in America"* — given to Joseph's seed for 
 an inheritance. 
 
 Never having had the pleasure of meeting 
 that master mind of the world on steel production, 
 Charles M. Schwab, I am unable to say whether he 
 is a student of Bible prophecy or not, but I should 
 judge the chances rather favor the *^not," there- 
 fore he probably may not know that Joseph's 
 offspring were promised the wealth of the ancient 
 hills and mountains. However, on January 5th, 
 1921, at the Copley Plaza in Boston, Mr. Schwab 
 before the Massachusetts Bankers' Association 
 made the following statement of fact*: "Our 
 United States has been endowed hy God with

 everything to make it and keep it the foremost 
 Industrial and Commercial Nation of the world/' 
 
 Charles M. Schwab says that America 
 has everything necessary to keep it in front of 
 the whole world, and that it was endowed by God 
 with it; and that is exactly what Moses proph- 
 esied for the house of Joseph. Gentlemen, I 
 rest my case there. If yon know of any better 
 authority on prophecy than the Bible or any better 
 authority than Charles M. Schwab on prosperity 
 or on the material possessions of America, just 
 trot them out. 
 
 Abraham Lincoln at twenty-six years of 
 age sensed God's goodness to His servant Israel 
 in America. **He was firm in the belief that God 
 was at the helm, and that man was but the humble 
 though co-operating agent through whom the Al- 
 mighty Avas working out the destiny of man- 
 kind.''* 
 
 In a speech before the Young Mens' 
 Lyceum of Springfield, Illinois, at about that age, 
 he said: **We find ourselves in the peaceful pos- 
 session of [1] the fairest portion of the earth, 
 [2] as regards fertility of soil, [3] extent of ter- 
 ritory, and [4] salubrity of climate. . . . We .... 
 find ourselves the legal inheritors of these funda- 
 mental blessings. We toiled not in the acquire- 
 ment or the establishment of them."* 
 
 * Abraham Lincoln Man of God, by John Wesley Hill. 
 
116 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 ^^ As Lincoln journeyed from Illinois across 
 the country/^ Mr. Hill writes, ^^h e declared all 
 along the route that he was going fort h in the 
 name of the Living God of Israel.''* 
 
 Well, reader, the point here is that if 
 Lincoln knew that he was going forth ^4n the 
 name of the Living God of Israel" and he could 
 recognize the source of America's blessings, there 
 is no reason why you need be ashamed to see it and 
 to acknowledge it. 
 
 America has in full measure the very 
 things promised to Ephraim and Manasseh, — 
 brothers in 1713 B.C. as they are to-day, — Brother 
 John and Brother Jonathan. 
 
 It is noted that the sphere sketch does not 
 show any oil in Abyssinia, formerly called 
 Ethiopia in Bible times. I had a commander of 
 the Eoyal Navy at my home recently and was 
 telling him how it was Britain's and America's 
 job to settle the waste places of the earth and they 
 would receive payment therefore by getting the 
 wealth of the everlasting hills and of the deep 
 below the earth. 
 
 He was a Scot, a canny Scot, a man of few 
 words. I had been telling him that Abyssinia 
 would be against us in the great battle of Arma- 
 geddon, though I had noticed in September, 1919, 
 I think it was, that the British had given the Mad

 Mullah a bad licking with aeroplane and machine 
 guns. 
 
 ^'Man," says he, ^^we have been policing it 
 and pouring in millions of money there year after 
 year and I often wondered why we did it, as the 
 bally place was no use to us." 
 
 Well, sir, as a result of the licking we 
 gave the Mad Mullah, we have found more oil 
 in Abyssinia than there is in all Persia. So, again 
 Mother Britain is repaid for policing and main- 
 taining order, laAV and justice in these waste 
 places of the earth that were to be your in- 
 heritance as well as hers. 
 
 "Ask of me, and I shall give thee [Ephriam my 
 son] the heathen for thine inheritance, and the utter- 
 most parts of the earth for thy possession." (Ps. 2 :8.) 
 
 Both Britain and America have made good 
 the prophet ^s words and promises. Strange, but 
 this new find is just where Britain will need it for 
 going into the Suez Canal from the South, also 
 the American Navy and Merchant Marine, which 
 by that time will perhaps all be equipped with oil- 
 burning apparatus. 
 
 I notice in this morning's paper, December 
 28, 1920, that your Secretary of the Navy, Mr. 
 Josephus Daniels, has a belief that your govern- 
 ment should prohibit the use of all fuel oil save 
 for ships, and he proposes a brand new policy for 
 the United States. 
 
118 DESTINY OF BEITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 ^^I am in favor of the nationalization of 
 coal, oil and water-power wealth of the nation. 
 The statesmanship of our day should redeem the 
 folly of earlier days/' he says, ^^when these prime 
 necessities were left unregulated to our lasting 
 injury." What a pity our politicians, as well as 
 yours, chuck out stutf like this when leaving office 
 instead of bringing it about while they are in 
 office ! It would have been a feather in Mr. Daniel's 
 cap if, when war was declared, he had taken the 
 Standard Oil and the other oil refiners by the 
 scuff of the neck and the seat of their pants and 
 said, **Now, you chaps must work for Uncle Sam 
 for a dollar ten per day, just like our fighting men 
 at the Front. We will take your output at 
 cost plus 10 per cent." America then would have 
 saved enough to help pay her share of the war, in- 
 stead of bulging out the already overfilled pock- 
 ets of the oil magnates. President Harding has 
 served notice that conscription will be for all in 
 America's next big war, plants as well as men 
 and he does well. 
 
 I had not noticed that Secretary Daniels 
 was particularly keen along these lines during 
 his turn at the wheel, but then I was very busy at 
 the Front and may have overlooked some things. 
 I don't suppose it would be any use for an ordin- 
 ary dock-wholloper like myself to tender an old 
 sea-dog, like Mr. Daniels, any advice on fuel for 
 ships. But I would like to say to the Secretary, 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 119 
 
 *^Mr. Daniels, if I were you, I wouldn't get all 
 het up worrying over the fuel supply for your 
 big navy. It's just possible that the Creator 
 fixed it all up for America when this world was 
 put on its turning points and that he saw to it 
 that your cellars had a good stock of coal, oil, 
 copper, silver, gold, etc., because, ^When the Most 
 High divided to the nations their inheritance, 
 when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the 
 bound*^ of the people according to the number of 
 the children of Israel. ' ' 
 
 You will note that God had a plan for this 
 universe in Adam's time, which was before there 
 was a U. S. Navy, long, long before there were any 
 chiidren of Israel. And as the bounds of the na- 
 tions were set then so the United States of 
 America was x)rovided for and as the descendants 
 of Manasseh. were to become a *^ great people," 
 as the prophets foretold, they would need plenty 
 of elbow room, plenty of coal, plenty of oil, plenty 
 of iron and other necessities ; for they were to take 
 in all peoples and become the melting pot of all 
 nations who would obey America's laws and so 
 heccme Israelites hy adoption and hy their belief 
 in Christ, 
 
 In comparatively a few years the King of 
 Israel, whose right it is, will come to His King- 
 dom to see what his ten servants (the 10 tribes) 
 have done during his absence with the talents he- 
 gave them when he commissioned them to Oc- 
 
120 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 cupy until I come. What will America's answer 
 be in those days if asked why they ducked their 
 share of the white man's burden in Armenia in 
 1919 or 1920? America must stick by the com- 
 mission. **Go ye into all the world'' and not 
 live for America alone. 
 
 When your country was settled only on the 
 East and South, the lure of the gold in Cali- 
 fornia's ancient hills drew your citizens across the 
 great wilderness that then was between the East 
 and the West ; and so while giving them the wealth 
 it also succeeded in peopling all America from 
 East to West with an hundred and ten million 
 intelligent prospective Israelites, and more com- 
 ing. As Ephraim was promised the crown for 
 David's seed, America had to be satisfied with a 
 republic, and you are. But day and night are 
 still doing business with us and so is God's 
 Covenant, and somewhere ruling to-day over 
 Israel is the seed of David, his servant — if not 
 in Brith-ain, where is it! 
 
 I happened in New York City in 1919 and 
 called on my early chief down at Battery Place 
 the morning our Prince of Wales landed on the 
 Battery steps, where his grandfather had landed 
 some sixty years before. America took that young 
 Prince to its heart in a way that could not have 
 been more real, true, and lasting, if he had been 
 their own Prince. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 121 
 
 Now York honored itself and did honor to 
 as fine a young man as ever stepped in army shoe- 
 leather that morning. We Canadians are proud 
 of him and of his work, and it warmed the cockles 
 of my heart to see that you were proud of our 
 Prince, the Prince of the House of Israel. I some- 
 how wished that morning that he might fall in 
 love with an American beauty of the old covenant 
 stock who might become his Better Half and so 
 join the two sections of Israel (^^ ruling with 
 God'O together even more closely than they are 
 now, because to-day there is a world-wide con- 
 spiracy to drive these brothers apart that must 
 and will meet defeat. 
 
 The Prince's motto is **I serve'' ; and many 
 times I passed him beating it alone and on foot 
 along the railway tracks near an R. E. park called 
 *^Ondank Siding" on his way up to the Front of 
 the 14th Corps to which he was attached during 
 the terrific Paschendale fighting in front of Ypres 
 in 1917. Having an extra star on my tunic above 
 what he wore, the Prince always saluted it as I 
 passed him, as if I were the King of England and 
 he the Roadbuilder, a lesson in true democracy to 
 those who serve. 
 
 When the Prince stayed with the Canadian 
 Corps at the Front, he showed himself as true a 
 democrat as ever grew on America's verdant 
 soil. It is customary in any army mess at even- 
 ing dinner for all to remain seated until the senior 
 
122 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 officer rises. The Chief in this case was Lieu- 
 tenant-General, Sir Arthur Currie, who before the 
 war was a real estate agent in Vancouver, B.C. 
 and a major in the local volunteers, and who won 
 his promotion at the Front step by step by sheer 
 merit and hard work from the earliest days of the 
 war. The Prince was the latest arrival at the 
 mess and the evening he arrived when G-eneral 
 Currie rose to leave the table, the Prince lived up 
 to his motto of ^'I serve'' by going to the door 
 and opening it for the corps commander and the 
 senior officers to pass out while he stood at at- 
 tention. It was a delightful touch, and its spon- 
 taneity showed the true heart and instinct 
 beneath his khaki tunic. 
 
 America, when she knows it, is as much a 
 part of the House of Israel as is Canada, Aus- 
 tralia or New Zealand and I have a feeling before 
 many years you chaps living below the 49th 
 parallel will be glad to think and to know that 
 you nationally are of the House of Israel. 
 
 The British Isles were visited by Pytheas, 
 a Greek navigator who sailed around Britain in 
 the third century B.C. and reported that in those 
 days they made an attractive drink ^^Kurmi'' 
 which gave one a pain in the head and also af- 
 fected one's nerves (both, presumably the morn- 
 ing after).* So times have not changed much 
 along some lines during 2200 years.

 When the Komans invaded Britain, these 
 Brythons were in possession of a gold coinage, 
 were manufacturers of beautifully wrought 
 shields of bronz and enamelled ornaments and 
 were not the naked skin-clad barbarians depicted 
 in some histories. They had a civilization far in 
 advance of Eome of that time. They carried 
 Christianity from the Isles and planted it firmly 
 in Kome itself through and by means of their royal 
 family when the British Christian King Caradoc 
 or Caractacus being defeated was taken there as a 
 prisoner together with his son Linus and his 
 daughters. St. Paul, in his second Timothy 4 :21, 
 sends greetings to this early Welsh Christian 
 whose home was a meeting place for the Apostles 
 and all Christians. The first Bishop of Rome was 
 a Welshman, the Welsh Prince Linus. This is 
 stated by Clemens Romans who became the third 
 Bishop of Rome only thirteen years after. It is 
 also proved by the unimpeachable Irenaeus, of the 
 second century: ^*The blessed Apostles having 
 formed and built up the church, put into the hands 
 of Linus the ministry of the Episcopate. These 
 facts and many others just as interesting are 
 proved in a little book by George Howard- Wright, 
 M.A. — Glastonbury our Mother (price 1 shilling), 
 and also by Rev. R. W. Morgan's St. Paul in 
 Britain or the Origin of British Christianity.

CHAPTER VII. 
 
 One evening we were dining in our mess, 
 located in a small village behind Bethune, during 
 March, 1917. We had an old chateau to ourselves, 
 barring a dozen families of chimney martins that 
 shared the hallways with us, there being no 
 windows to keep them out. Each nest later had 
 four wide-eyed young ones in it with their heads 
 out over the edge as we went to and fro. 
 
 As will happen when ten or twelve men eat 
 several meals a day together for almost 365 days 
 of the year, talk languished. 
 
 We had two Sky Pilots with us as a regular 
 diet and they favored us with many visiting 
 clergymen with such glorious appetites ! Why are 
 parsons always so hungry, I wonder. It always 
 seemed as if it was my luck to foregather with 
 from one to three of them in each mess I got into, 
 until I grew to think that some one in authority 
 thought I was in special need of the daily and 
 personal attention from them or else they desired 
 to have the Padre's vocabularies enlarged, along 
 certain explosive lines very necessary in driving 
 army mules, of both varieties — two legged and 
 four legged ! 
 
 Well, this evening conversation languished, 
 and to make talk, I chucked out something about 
 the Jews to my clerical friends across the table. 
 
 126 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 127 
 
 The good-looking young major sitting next to me 
 on the right gently tapped me on the knee under 
 the table and whispered, 
 
 **You know, Major Blank is a Jew.*' 
 Major Blank sat next to me on my left. Of 
 course I knew he was a Jew, as did everyone else, 
 because he had a typical Jew nose and face, and 
 the Jews' business capacity. I replied out loud; 
 he is a first cousin of mine ! The Major belongs 
 to the tribe of Levi or Judah, while I am from the 
 tribe of Benjamin on my mother's side and from 
 the tribe of Gad on my father 's side. ' ' 
 
 Turning to the Major I said, **By the way, 
 Major, I suppose you remember that the Bible 
 said of your tribe of Judah (Isaiah 3:9): ^The 
 shew of their countenance doth witness against 
 them'? And so down through the ages you can 
 always tell a Jew as far away as you can see his 
 face. ' ' 
 
 **You know. Major," I continued, '^we are 
 going to win Jerusalem, Palestine, and the Holy 
 Land back from Turkey (or Edom, as the Bible 
 refers to it) as predicted in the single chapter of 
 Obadiah, and we are going to give it to you chaps 
 for a national home for Jews under Great 
 Britain. 
 
 But, the Major wouldn't have any! In the 
 first place he didn't believe the Bible was in- 
 spired; 'twas just Hebrew symbolical literature, 
 
128 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 and in the second place the Jews didn't want Jer- 
 usalem and wouldn't go back if they had it. 
 
 **Well, Major, you ought to be an authority 
 on Jews, but I 'm sure you will pardon me if I pre- 
 fer the authority that has been proved correct, in 
 hundreds of predictions extending down through 
 the ages, as to the persecution, etc., the Jews were 
 to receive for their actions and for having re- 
 jected and crucified our Lord. ^His blood be on 
 us and our children,' they cried, and for nineteen 
 hundred years it certainly has been, and they got 
 what they asked for all right. If you take the 
 Bible prophecies about Judah and the Jews in 
 Isaiah, first five chapters, and then read history 
 you will see that each Bible prophecy or prediction 
 due up to date has come true. Therefore you 
 might expect the prediction that they were to 
 be joined to the house of Israel on the hills of 
 Palestine, after Ephriam Israel had cleaned out 
 the Turk, to come true" — as it has to the very 
 letter, both to the Jews and to Ephraim Israel 
 (Britain). 
 
 ^^The Bible says, Major, that you hooked- 
 nosed chaps are going to hike back to Palestine 
 representatively, one of a city and two of a family. 
 There will be two Cohens, two Abrahams, two 
 Leons, two Moses, etc." 
 
 Nothing doing for the Major, 'twas all 
 bunk! But this is what we read in Jeremiah 
 
DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 129 
 
 3 :14, **And I will take you one of a city, and two 
 of a family, and I will bring you to Zion'' — or the 
 Holy Land. 
 
 However, General Allenby, that most 
 sympathetic of all our army commanders, hap- 
 pily selected for that job, finally won Jerusalem; 
 and immediately the Zionist societies of Britain 
 and elsewhere set up a holler for a national home 
 for the Jews. But Arthur J. Balfour, then Secre- 
 tary of State for Foreign Affairs, turned them 
 down flat — ^nothing doing. 
 
 The Major met me at breakfast the morning 
 the London Times reached us with this news. 
 
 **Well sir," says he, **you don't get your 
 national home for Jews in Palestine. '' 
 
 *'You bet your last pair of socks we will," 
 says L 
 
 **Why? Didn't you see what Balfour said'^' 
 
 "Sure I did, but that doesn't cut any ice," 
 saA's L ** Britain's ministers and prime ministers 
 have had to eat their words dozens of times with- 
 in my recollection when they got off the track of 
 the plan the Creator has laid down for Britain to 
 follow. Take Gladstone's promise to get out of 
 Egypt. Did he do it 1 Not on your life ! Because 
 he couldn't and he had to eat his words and 
 promises time after time about that and other 
 things. Balfour, Major, is a big toad in the Brit- 
 ish puddle and a charming man ; but big as he is, 
 he is not yet running the universe and I have it on 
 
130 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 the authority of the Runner of the Universe that 
 both the Jews and Israel are going back to Jer- 
 usalem, representatively, and they will be under 
 a ki]ig there, the descendant of King David of 
 Israel, so Great Britain must have the mandate, as 
 she has the only king who clearly is descended 
 from King David of Israel and Jerusalem with 
 an enduring dynasty — see Psalm 89. ' ' 
 
 Well, inside a week or two Arthur J. Bal- 
 four had to turn one of those complete somer- 
 saults that our politicians find so necessary to 
 execute at times when they get on the wrong side 
 of the political fence, and working against the 
 Creator's plan laid down in God's Word; and he 
 agreed that Great Britain would use her best in- 
 fluence to try to bring about a national homeland 
 for Jews in Palestine. France followed suit, then 
 Italy, and I believe the United States did likewise. 
 
 After I got home from the Front in the 
 spring of 1919 one of our daily papers gave an 
 account of a conference of Zionist societies from 
 the Western States which met in Chicago. They 
 decided to send representatives to the Holy Land. 
 And how did they select them! Why, just as the 
 Bible said they would: ^^One of a city" to the 
 number, I think it was, of 302 representatives. 
 In the same paper was a cable from London that 
 the Zion Society of Palestine had cabled the Brit- 
 ish Foreign Office not to allow over 50,000 Jews, I 
 thirik it was, to return that year as they could not 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 131 
 
 accommodate all that were flocking in — See Jer. 
 3 :14: ** And I will take you one of a city, and two 
 of a family, and I will bring you a Zion. ' ' 
 
 I cut out both these clippings, enclosed 
 them, and wrote a note to my first cousin (some 
 removed), the Jew major, who, like myself, was a 
 civilian, and asked: *^How about the Creator 
 knowing more about the Jews than you didf 
 After many moons the Major got the letter in that 
 quaint old walled city of Lille and wrote me some 
 months later saying he had been holding off until 
 he saw the final outcome of the whole Palestine 
 layout. 
 
 Sir Herbert Samuels, High Commissioner 
 for Palestine, had left England for the Holy Land 
 and a close relation of the Major's, who was a 
 staunch Zionist, was one of Sir Herbert's staff 
 advisers. The Major was very hearty in his con- 
 gratulations on the predictions coming out exactly 
 as had been stated, but he figured no Holy Land 
 for his! He would sooner sell boots to the pil- 
 grims enroute for there. I wrote and told him 
 some of the particulars that were yet going to 
 happen to that section of country that the Creator 
 selected as the homeland for His selected seed, 
 both Judah and Israel. 
 
 By the way, it was predicted Judah should 
 walk with, or as the margin has it, *Ho" Israel; 
 and they have been doing it by filling large sec- 
 tions of most every city in the United States, 
 
132 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 Great Britain and Canada (all portions of Israel) 
 with Jews at sucli an alarming rate during the 
 last twenty-five years, and so much to the disgust 
 of some pillars of Israel — that one of them wrote 
 me recently from England he ** wished to God 
 they'd all go back to Palestine and stay there.'' 
 Well, this particular pillar of Israel happens to 
 be a somewhat peppery general who does not 
 know that there are those *' which say they are 
 Jews, are not, but are the synagogue [or con- 
 gregation] of Satan." 
 
 The Major, being an Englishman for many 
 generations, was as stiff-necked as the average of 
 that tribe about a new idea and would not have 
 any joining of Britain (Ephraim Israel) with 
 Judah until he saw it as an accomplished fact 
 two years later. I might have quoted the prophets 
 to him, but not being a believer in the Bible as in- 
 spired, he would have said it was ** bunkum" 
 and he would not have been able to see it ; besides, 
 he might have retorted by some reference to the 
 ** Devil quoting Scripture," — as some of my mess- 
 mates thought I was a pretty stout limb of Satan 
 anyway. Such is reputation ! 
 
 Look up Ezekiel 37 :19-22. 
 
 19. "Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; 
 Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the 
 hand of Ephraim [England], and the tribes of 
 Israel his fellows — Simeon (the Welsh), Gad (Lowland 
 Scotch), Benjamin (Normans), etc., etc. — and will

 put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and 
 make them, one stick, and they shall be one in mine 
 hand. 
 
 20. "And the sticks whereon thou writest shall 
 be in thine hand before their eyes [before the eyes of 
 all the world]. 
 
 21. "And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God ; 
 Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among 
 the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather 
 them on every side, and bring them into their own 
 land [Palestine — given to their forefather, Abraham]. 
 
 22. "And I will make them one nation in the 
 land upon the mountains of Israel ; and one king shall 
 be king to them all: and they shall be no more two 
 nations, neither shall they be divided into two king- 
 
 . doms any more at all.'' 
 
 Pretty strong medicine to hand out to an 
 unbelieving Jew, eh what ? I knew I ^d have about 
 as much chance of getting anywhere by quoting 
 it to my friend the Major as a snowball has of 
 becoming an icicle in the warm place, so I didn't 
 trouble him with this data. 
 
 You may not know that the Hebrew people 
 were finally divided hy the Creator into two na- 
 tions about the year 974 B.C. For hundreds of 
 years they had been numbered and referred to 
 separately even when under one king. Just here 
 note that it is the lack of this knowledge and its 
 application to Bible prophecies made about either 
 Judah or Israel that is the cause of Churches' 
 failure to properly grasp, interpret and see the 
 prophecies concerning Israel's future and God's 
 
134 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 plan for her redemption after their dispersion by 
 Shalmaneser, King of Assyria, and their being 
 taken across the Euphrates. 
 
 You will see, in First Kings, Chapters 11 
 and 12, how these Hebrews were finally separated 
 into two nations by God. King David had joined 
 Judah and Israel together and ruled over them, 
 yet note how in II Samuel 5 :4, 5 Israel is men- 
 tioned separate from Judah : 
 
 4. "David was thirty years old when he began 
 to reign, and he reigned forty years. 
 
 5. "In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven 
 years and' six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned 
 thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah." 
 
 Solomon, David's son — ^born in 1033 B.C., 
 crowned King of Israel in 1015, and died in 975 
 B.C. — ^was told that because of his idolatry and 
 so forth (mostly so forth, as you will see by read- 
 ing this interesting chapter), nine out of the ten 
 tribes of Israel would be taken from his kingdom, 
 not in his day but in his son's time. 
 
 "And unto his [Solomon's] son will I give one 
 tribe, that David my servant may have a light alway 
 before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen 
 me to put my name there." (I Kings 11:36.) 
 
 This was the tribe of Benjamin whom 
 Moses blessed and said: 
 
 "The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by 
 him; and the Lord shall cover him all the day long, 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 135 
 
 and he shall dwell between his shoulders." (Deut. 
 33:12.) 
 
 This trilDe received Christ gladly when the 
 Jews persecuted him. Eleven of the twelve 
 apostles were Benjamites; the twelfth, Judas, a 
 Jew, sold Jesus for thirty pieces of silver. The 
 Jews would not receive Christ ; but Benjamin, you 
 will remember, was left temporarily with Judah 
 when the kingdom was divided after the reign of 
 Solomon, *Hhat David my servant may have a 
 light alway before me in Jerusalem." This 
 Benjamin tribe received Christ and as His 
 disciples started out to be the light to lighten the 
 world, Jesus, instructing them, said: **Go not 
 into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of 
 the Samaritans enter ye not : but go rather to the 
 lost sheep of the house of IsraeV — the sheep that 
 had been taken captive. The sheep that had for- 
 saken God and become idolaters had quit the 
 Mosaic rites and laws and their first order to go 
 to Israel rather than to Judah was afterwards 
 amplified by a command to **go ye into all the 
 world." Jesus knowing Israel was to be scat- 
 tered among all the nations commanded his 
 disciples to go into all the world. 
 
 When Kehoboam, King of Judah, with 
 whom, as we said, were temporarily the tribe of 
 Benjamin, numbering **an hundred and four 
 score thousand chosen men, which were war- 
 
136 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 riors/' was making ready to fight against the 
 House of Israel (who kicked over the traces be- 
 cause of the high taxes and heavy yokes, etc. — the 
 sort of taxes their descendants to-day are com- 
 plaining about in U.S.A.), ^^the word of God came 
 unto Shemaiah, the man of God, saying, speak 
 unto Kehoboam, the son of Solomon, king of 
 Judah, and unto all the house of Judah and Benja- 
 min, and to the remnant of the people, saying. 
 Thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not go up, nor fight 
 against your brethren, the children of Israel : re- 
 turn every man to his house; for this thing is 
 from me. They hearkened therefore to the word 
 of the Lord.'' 
 
 Now then, whether you believe in prophecy 
 or not, history shews that Judah and Israel were 
 divided and have been separate and distinct until, 
 as foretold, they were joined together in Palestine 
 after Edom or Turkey had been smashed in 1917. 
 Just seven times (a time being 360 years) after 
 it had fallen, i.e., 2520 years, and in the 2520 year 
 General Allenby captured it and entered Jer- 
 usalem on foot, not as victorious troops but as a 
 redeemer of the Holy Places. 
 
 If our clergyman could only see this divis- 
 ion commanded to be made by God and would 
 realize that when the Bible refers to Judah or the 
 Jews, it means exactly what it says, since the 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 137 
 
 nation Israel (ruling with God) is as separate in 
 prophecy from Judah as it is possible to make it, 
 they would get such new revelations that they 
 would get ns all to take out onr disused Bibles 
 and find the living Word of God more up to date 
 than any publication in America or anywhere else. 
 
 Eecently I heard one of the best educated 
 Episcopal clergymen on this continent refer to St. 
 Paul as **a little Jew." Now, St. Paul was as 
 much *'a little Jew" as I am **a little Newfound- 
 lander ' ' and no more ! I telephoned this venerable 
 gentleman and asked him why he called St. Paul 
 ''a little Jew." 
 
 **Well, he wasn't a Gentile was he?" — 
 showing that he considered it necessary to be one 
 or the other. St. Paul himself said in the 11th 
 chapter of Eomans, 1st verse: 
 
 "I say then, Hath God cast away his people 
 [Israel] ? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of 
 the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin/' 
 
 It is true his tribe was temporarily with the 
 Judah Kingdom and he could say he was a Jew, 
 temporarily, in the same way he could say he was 
 a Eoman citizen without stretching the truth, but, 
 by birth he was of Israel and of the tribe of 
 Benjamin, '^beloved of the Lord," and he knew 
 it, was proud of it and proclaimed it to the Jews 
 and to Israel. 
 
138 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 You will rememl)er that the tribe of Benja- 
 min was left with Judah, * * that David, my servant, 
 may have a light always before Me in Jerusalem. ' ' 
 This light was to lighten the world and here was 
 St. Paul who, together with Luke, Timothy and 
 Mark in A.I). 61, carried this light to the British 
 or Covenant Isles* where his brethren were. Read 
 Eomans 11 : 25, 26, 30, where he was speaking to 
 his own people, Israelites : 
 
 25. "For I would not, brethren, that ye should 
 be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in 
 your own conceits ; that blindness in part is happened 
 to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in." 
 
 26. And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is 
 written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, 
 and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob. 
 
 30. For as ye in times past have not believed 
 God, yet have now obtained mercy through their un- 
 belief. 
 
 Here you will notice that this partial 
 blindness of Israel had a time limit. How long! 
 ^^ Until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.'' 
 Well, that time limit expired when the Holy City, 
 Jerusalem, ceased to be trodden down by the in- 
 famous Ottoman, or T'Heman, when Britain 
 took possession by capture in 1917. This blind- 
 ness in part is therefore now to be removed and it 
 is just possible this screed may help along that 
 line. Anyway, its up to Manasseh, the United 
 
 *Far Hence unto the Gentiles, by Lumen (Major J. 
 Samuels, V. D.). 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 139 
 
 States section of Israel to get wise to the fact that 
 they are that ** great people '^ who in early days 
 B.C. thnmped their chests and hollered for more 
 land because they were a great people, and they 
 got it ; since which time * though blinded in part," 
 they have not entirely forgotten their chest- 
 elevating habits, nor the inclination to holler **We 
 are a great people. ' ' ^ ' We won the War ! " * * We 
 will have the biggest navy afloat," etc. Bless your 
 hearts, yon can't help it any more than the rest 
 of lis. We, yonr neighbours on the North know 
 yon from yonr boots np. We know it is hard to 
 live in the ozone-filled atmosphere of this North 
 American Continent (of which don't forget we 
 Canadians own the larger half) and not boast. 
 We above the 49th parallel have our ardor a bit 
 tempered by those gentle zephyrs wafting down 
 from the Aurora Borealis area several months of 
 the year ; but even with this and among ourselves, 
 there is a saying that a man cannot tell the truth 
 about Canada anywhere west of Port Arthur. 
 They just boast ! 
 
 'Twas odd, but whenever we Canadians 
 met a man from the U.S.A., whether officer or 
 ** Doughboy" at the Front, we felt 'tv/as someone 
 from home. Motoring back from Germany in 
 January, 1919, I passed through the American 
 headquarters area at Coblenz, then into Treves 
 where Marshall Foch has his headquarters. We 
 went to the town major for a billet. I noticed he 
 
140 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 wore one of those straight corset-like, uncomfort- 
 able looking (for working) tunics of the U. S. 
 Army, so I said. 
 
 ** Hello, Yank! What are the chances for a 
 shake-down for two officers and my chauffeur for 
 the night r' 
 
 **Not very good, Sir," he replied, looking 
 me over. *^ Where do you hail from when you 
 are home?" 
 
 I told him. He knew my city. He was 
 from Detroit (Park Davis Co.), and he dug us 
 up a splendid billet, had my motor filled with 
 gasoline and forgot to charge it, because our cities 
 were not over a thousand miles apart, and be- 
 cause we told stories that each could understand 
 without the aid of a mallet and chisel. We were 
 brothers in ideas, in ideals, and in service. 
 
 We motored through beautiful old Luxem- 
 bourg, Metz, Nancy and Verdun, Rheims, Noyen, 
 Amiens and back to Lille. At Metz an American 
 showed us the figure of the prophet Daniel, cut in 
 stone, with the other prophets on the cathedral. 
 Emperor William had had his own face, with its 
 up-turned mustache, carved in place of the 
 prophet DaniePs, but still retaining the latter 's 
 gown and folded arms! An Anglo-Saxon would 
 have been tempted to smash it with an axe when 
 they took over the city, but the French had a more 
 subtle wit. They had a pair of large iron manacles 
 made and placed on Daniel's folded arms, so 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 141 
 
 there stands the Kaiser in irons on the comer of 
 the Cathedral in Metz Public Square for future 
 generations to admire ! 
 
 At Verdun the only eating-place available 
 was an American Y. M. C. A. in one of the semi- 
 demolished buildings. 'Twas a cold, wet day and 
 their roof was only a quarter left on and the 
 balance badly splintered. My nose told me it was 
 a Yankee chuck-house for I smelled flapjacks and 
 maple syrup when I got inside the battered door. 
 Noticing a vacant space on a plank alongside a 
 young lady I hastily filled it, as women's com- 
 pany at the Front was a real treat. 
 
 **Well, Sister, what part of Yankee Land 
 do you hail from r' 
 
 ** Lincoln, Nebraska," says she as if with 
 a clothes peg on her nose. 
 
 **Good gracious, but you're a long way 
 from home aren't you? How did you make it?" 
 
 She was only about a handful and so frail- 
 looking I wondered how she passed inspection. 
 
 **Is your billet dry?" I asked, seeing that 
 she had a bad cold. 
 
 '^Well, at times." 
 
 If the wind and rain blew from the west, 
 they, she and another young lady, pushed their 
 cots to the east side of the room where it was 
 dry, but if it changed direction during the night 
 their cots and blankets got wet. They gave us a 
 bang-up hot meal, for we were chilled to the bone 
 
142 DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 and they made ns feel as mucli at home as if we 
 were a William Jennings Bryan Jr. It was always 
 thus when Americans and Canadians met: we 
 were brothers in fact, as we are by inheritance 
 and by that long distance relationship dating from 
 our forefather as well as your forefather Joseph, 
 the food controller in Egypt for those seven lean 
 years 1700 B.C. to 1693 B.C. 
 
 When we realize the final division of the 
 Hebrews into two separate nations as shown in 
 this chapter, one is in a position to read intelli- 
 gently future references, predictions and proph- 
 ecies made concerning Israel as well as Judah 
 throughout both the Old and New Testaments, 
 and — if I may be pardoned for saying it (es- 
 pecially by the parsons, who, I find, dislike having 
 a layman prod them or their Union when it comes 
 to Bible facts) — ^no person can understand one 
 half of the Old and New Testaments without this 
 knowledge. 
 
 In Matthew 21: 43 Jesus speaking to the 
 Jews said: 
 
 '^Therefore say I unto you, the kingdom 
 
 of God shall be taken from you [Jews], and 
 given to a nation bringing forth the fruits 
 thereof.'' 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 143 
 
 Many Episcopalian and other chnrclimen 
 hold that God's Kingdom has been passed on to 
 the chnrch as custodians and they forget entirely 
 the ''nation'' referred to by Jesus, a nation bring- 
 ing forth the fruits thereof. Such a nation does 
 exist to-day, who, with their offspring, are ful- 
 filling every prophecy foretold about Israel; but 
 the church is in no sense filling these prophecies. 
 ^* There are none so blind as those who will not 
 see ! ' ' — churchmen included ! 
 
 Had I the time I would like to explore the 
 churches' contention that they are Israel, as I 
 could prove to your satisfaction that not one or 
 even all the churches can qualify for this name 
 since they are neither **a nation" nor do they 
 properly bring forth * * the fruits thereof. ' ' Their 
 failure to properly bring forth the fruits as 
 churches (not as nations) and carry forward the 
 Creator's design therein caused to spring up those 
 zealous Dissenters who in turn have not seen this 
 truth except in spots, — Puritans, Baptists, Metho- 
 dists and last but not least, that splendid host 
 raised by that eminent Father in Israel, General 
 Booth, for the further world-wide propagation of 
 God's Word by deeds and works among those who 
 need it most. I do not mention herein the Church 
 of Scotland, offspring of the church Jeremiah 
 founded in Ulster about the year 575 B.C., whose 
 ministers (provided they were not educated at 
 
144 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 Oxford) still largely believe the Bible is inspired 
 from cover to cover. 
 
 I would not for a moment depreciate the 
 good work done by the churches ; but in my time 
 they seem mostly in what the sailors would call 
 the doldrums, sails all up ready for business but 
 idly flapping from side to side. Since the German- 
 made higher criticism fell by the wayside in 
 1914, they seem waiting for a breeze to carry 
 them along towards their haven, and the congre- 
 gations aboard are mostly busy dodging the boom 
 as it idly flaps from side to side in the gentle roll of 
 a calm undisturbed sea and getting nowhere. The 
 breeze they need is in the Bible but their blind 
 leaders spiritualize it away as the higher critics 
 in Germany have done. They see the cross but 
 fail to see the Crown or Kingship of National 
 Israel the ten workmen Jesus told to * * occupy" his 
 kingdom until he comes to Earth to rule from 
 Jerusalem. 
 
 I really have little license to criticize be- 
 cause I have never joined a church, though our 
 parson, my children say, once referred to me from 
 the pulpit "as a staunch pillar of the church,'' 
 when I was in France — ^I wonder if he will with- 
 draw it now! But being a religious animal I at- 
 tended church regularly both at the Front, in Eng- 
 land on leave, and at home, and I must confess that 
 most churches seem to have a tendency to run to 
 seed, side and formalism, without being especially 
 hotbeds of brotherliness and light. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 145 
 
 They refuse to look through this window 
 that God has opened for them in His inspired 
 Word as if it was a man-made window and they 
 bethump those who do as if they were infidels. 
 
 They seem to worship idols of Success, 
 Glad Eags and New Bonnets quite as much 
 as they do the Creator, and most of the ministers 
 I have happened to hear, especially in England, 
 reading the living Word of God make it about as 
 attractive as is the reading of a dictionary of the 
 last century. 
 
 As an alleged custodian and interpreter of 
 God's Word given to men through the mouths of 
 His prophets in our Old and New Testaments, 
 every clergyman preaching from God's Word 
 should be prepared to answer this question which 
 I think a layman is entitled to ask . 
 
 What did Jesus mean by saying that the 
 
 Kingdom of God would be taken from the Jews 
 
 and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits 
 
 thereof? Where is there such a nation? Where 
 
 is the enduring throne of an enduring nation to 
 
 be seen daily as the sun and moon are seen, as 
 
 promised to David about 1024 B.C. in Psalm 89. 
 
 Is it Germany, Russia, Austria, or Turkey? 
 Is it Portugal, Italy, Spain or Ireland? 
 Methinlis that only among the Anglo- 
 Saxon nations can you find a people who, 
 
146 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 even imperfectly, are still bringing forth the 
 fruits of the Gospel our Lord taught when on 
 earth. 
 
 The seed of David was to rule until Christ 
 came again ; therefore to-day, somewhere, there is 
 reigning the seed of David. 
 
 Where are they? Who are the nations 
 bringing forth the fruits of Bible teaching! What 
 nations are spreading Grod's Word and laws 
 broadcast over the earth? 
 
 Alfred, the Great, in his day placed the Ten 
 Commandments at the beginning of British laws 
 and further adopted many of Moses' national laws 
 and statutes laid down for Israel in the Bible, and 
 he did well. He also built the first national Brit- 
 ish navy. Psalm 89 says: ^^I will set his hand 
 also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers." 
 Since the time of Alfred the Great, Britannia or 
 Covenant of the sea, has ruled the waves and will 
 now share it with Brother Jonathan, and perhaps 
 Japan. 
 
 Who is doing the missionary work of the 
 world to-day? Sir Walter Kaleigh in 1588 gave 
 £100 to the Virginia Company for the propa- 
 gation of Christianity in that settlement, being 
 the first recorded missionary work done in 
 America; and it was done by a Covenant man — 
 ^'Brith," Covenant and ^4sh,'' man. 
 
 Under Cromwell, in 1649, the Corporation 
 for the Propagation of the Gospel in New Eng- 
 land, new Bull land, was formed. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 147 
 
 The United Kingdom of Great Britain and 
 the United States of America are the two nations 
 carrying on about 75 per cent, of the missionary 
 work of the world as the following data will show, 
 and whenever there is distress or famine or want 
 the world over, the Anglo-Saxons give their sub- 
 stance, give heartily and give quickly, and give 
 three times as much as all the rest of the world 
 put together. Why, I wonder? This was fore- 
 seen by the prophets when we were given our 
 world-wide commission. 
 
 The following figures just give you a faint 
 idea of how Anglo-Saxons have been carrying on 
 their job as missionaries to the heathen Gentiles 
 and the demands for light and Bibles during the 
 next few years will dou!ble and treble.

CHAPTER VIII. 
 
 The Pilgrim Forefathers were a God- 
 fearing body of men. ^^They entered into cove- 
 nant to walk with God and one with one another, 
 in the enjoyment of the Ordinances of God, ac- 
 cording to the Primitive Pattern in the "Word of 
 God. Bnt finding by experience they could not 
 peacea) ly enjoy their own liberty in their Native 
 Country, without offence to others that were dif- 
 ferently minded, they took up thoughts of remov- 
 ing. ''* 
 
 They first went to Holland, and from there 
 the spirit moved them to go to America. It took 
 two years, however, before they could secure the 
 right and a patent to take up land in Virginia. 
 They had to explain that they were Englishmen 
 and Protestants, that they assented to the doc- 
 trines of the Church of England and acknowl- 
 edged the King's authority; and they agreed not 
 to become rebellious or dangerous colonists. The 
 government seemed to have a hunch even in that 
 day that they were to lose America and so tied 
 them to an agreement not to be rebellious, etc.

DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 151 
 
 After those in Holland had embarked and 
 had stopped for their friends in England, the 
 Pilgrims left Plymouth and started across the 
 ocean in the *^ Mayflower'' and the * ^ Speedwell. " 
 On two occasions they had to sail back to Eng- 
 land because of the unseaworthiness of the 
 ^* Speedwell''; and they finally had to give up the 
 *^ Speedwell," sell part of their provisions, and 
 overcrowd the '* Mayflower" when they made 
 their final start, September 6-16, 1620, for 
 Virginia. 
 
 The ** Mayflower" had a tough passage, 
 encountering many gales, in one of which her 
 main beam was broken. But one of the Pilgrims 
 had a jack screw and with this a repair was made 
 and the voyage was continued. They made land 
 November 9-19, 1620, at Cape Cod. The crew 
 refused to sail down the coast in the teeth of the 
 November gales, and the Pilgrims had to land 
 and stay in Massachusetts though their patent 
 was only for Virginia. 
 
 Eight here may I mention how Providence 
 guided these people and took care of them. Had 
 they landed on any other section of the coast than 
 where they did, they never could have survived 
 the winter and the Indians. A plague had struck 
 this section of country two years before and 
 wiped out the Indians but left in a cave some 
 eight bushels of Indian corn, which the Pilgrims 
 
152 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 used for seed for the season 1621, as tliey brought 
 none from England. 
 
 On December 25th they commenced their 
 first house. During that first winter they en- 
 dured many hardships and lost their governor 
 and one half the colony by death and the rest 
 were so weakened that had the warlike Indians 
 of the other parts of the coast been in this section 
 of country, the Pilgrims could not possibly have 
 survived. 
 
 In 1621 they secured a patent, granted by 
 the English Council for New England (the new 
 bull or Engle land). 
 
 Israel was to settle the coasts and waste 
 places of the earth and drive the heathen before 
 them. Was that promise fulfilled in the case of 
 the Pilgrims when as Englishmen they settled 
 New England? Can we do better than to take 
 the words of the Pilgrims themselves? You can 
 readily see that the heathen were driven out be- 
 fore them by the plague and the way made easy 
 for them to build homes and become installed 
 peacefully. 
 
 Nathaniel Morton, the historian addressed 
 a Memorial to the Right Worshipful Tliomas 
 Prince, Governor of New England, published by 
 E. P. Dutton & Co., N.Y., from which I have 
 taken the following quotations: 
 
 "Have never seen nor heard of any [memorial 
 writings] especially respecting this our plantation of 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 153 
 
 New Plimouth, which God hath honored to he the first 
 in this land, I have made bold to present your Wor- 
 ships with, and to publish to the world, something of 
 the very first beginnings of the great actions of God 
 in New England, begun at New Plimouth. 
 
 "I should gladly have spoken more particularly 
 of the neighboring united colonies, whose ends and 
 aims in their transplanting of themselves and families, 
 were the same with ours, viz. the glory of God, the 
 propagation of the Gospel and enlargement of His 
 Majesty's Dominions 
 
 "And declaration of God's wonderful works for, 
 by, and to his People in preparing a place for them 
 by driving out the Heathen before them . . and making 
 this howling wilderness a chamber of rest, safety and 
 pleasantness/' 
 
 As early as 1623 these Englishmeii kept 
 days for fasting, humiliation, and prayer and in 
 1637 passed an ordinance: ^^That it be in the 
 power of the governor and assistants to com- 
 mand solenm days of humiliation, and also for 
 thanksgiving,'' and since then their American 
 descendants have eaten the November Thanks- 
 giving turkey and cranberry, with or without the 
 aforementioned humiliation and prayer attach- 
 ments and in many cases I'm afraid have forgot- 
 ten what their predecessors knew in their souls, 
 namely, that God had been and still was looking 
 after them and ** prospering their undertakings," 
 as your Great Seal of State says, above the all- 
 seeing eye. 
 
 Here are some paragraphs from Chronicles 
 of the Pilgrim Fathers that is particularly appro- 
 
154 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 priate to these times (when authority is looked 
 askance by so many **Eeds" and semi-** Reds,'' 
 profiteers, etc.) and for electing representatives: 
 
 "Lastly ... let your wisdom and godliness appear 
 not only in choosing such persons as do entirely love, 
 and will promote the common good; but also in 
 yielding unto them all due Honor and Obedience in 
 their lawful administrations, not beholding in them 
 the ordinariness of their persons, but Ood's ordinance 
 for your good; not being like the foolish multitude, 
 who more honor the gay coat then either the virtuous 
 mind of the man, or the glorious ordinance of God. 
 
 "Ought not, and may not the children of these 
 fathers rightly say, our fathers were Englishmen, 
 which came over this great ocean, and were ready to 
 perish in this wilderness, but they cried unto the 
 Lord, and he heard their voice, and looked on their 
 adversity.^' 
 
 About March 16, 1621, an Indian called 
 Samoset came to the Puritan settlement. He 
 could speak a little English and proved to be, 
 they wrote, ** a special instrument sent of God 
 for their good, beyond expectation." He told 
 them how to plant the corn they found left by the 
 plague-killed Indians, where to fish for the fish 
 so necessary for them to live and helped in divers 
 manners so long as he lived. 
 
 "By that time all their corn was planted, all their 
 victuals [that were brought from England] was spent 
 and they were only to rest on God's providence; 
 many times at night not knowing where to have any- 
 thing to sustain nature the next day, and so had 
 need to pray that God would give them their daily 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 155 
 
 bread . . sometimes for two or three months together 
 
 they neither had bread or any kind of corn. 
 
 * * * * 
 
 When the Pilgrims had no rain on their 
 corn from the third week in May until the middle 
 of July in 1624, *Hhey set apart a solemn day of 
 humiliation, to seek the Lord by humble and 
 fervent prayer'' for some eight hours in their 
 great distress. Though the morning was clear and 
 hot, without a cloud in the sky, at evening they 
 were blessed with gentle showers in abundance 
 until the parched ground was wet and soaked, 
 much to the admiration of the Indians who wit- 
 nessed their prayers and supplications for rain. 
 
 * * * m 
 
 "And whoso rightly considereth what manner 
 of entrance, abiding, and proceedings we have had 
 among these poor heathens [the Indians] since we 
 came hither, will easily think that God hath some 
 great work to do towards them. They were wont to 
 be the most cruel and treacherous people in all these 
 parts, even like lions ; but to us [Pilgrims] they have 
 been like lambs, so kind, so submissive, and trusty, as 
 a man may truly say, many Christians are not so kind 
 
 nor sincere. 
 
 * * * * 
 
 "Thus God preserved the vme, which his own 
 right hand had planted and has enlarged our borders, 
 by giving to us the heritage of the heathen, which 
 they justly forfeited by their unreasonable rebellion. 
 Oh! that the people of this, and the other colonies, 
 would praise the Lord for his goodness, and wonder- 
 ful works unto them." 
 
156 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 Upon the death, in 1667, of Mr. John Wil- 
 son, for thirty-seven years pastor in Boston, one 
 who signed himself J. M. wrote some blank verse 
 from which I quote a few lines : 
 
 "Ah ! now there's none who does not know, 
 
 That this day in our Israel 
 Is fall'n a great good man too, 
 
 A Prince, I might have said as well: 
 A man of princely power with God, 
 
 For faith and love of princely spirit; 
 Our Israel's chariots, horsemen good, 
 
 By faith and prayer, though not by merit !" 
 
 Moses in Exodus 31 :13 was commanded : 
 "Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, say- 
 ing. Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep : for it is a 
 sign between me and you throughout your genera- 
 tions; that ye may know that I am the Lord that 
 doth sanctify you." 
 
 Your Pilgrim Forefathers kept the Sab- 
 bath as did the British from whom they sprang, 
 and the Anglo-Saxons are the nations and the 
 only nations the world over who do keep it, by the 
 law of the land as well as by general observance 
 of doing no work, etc. At the Paris Exposition 
 in 1889 every nation had their exhibit wide open 
 on the Sabbath day as on the other six days of 
 the week, save for two exceptions. Both the 
 United States and Great Britain closed their sec- 
 tions each Saturday and did not open them until 
 Monday morning — ^why I wonder? 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 157 
 
 Israel was to keep the Sabbaths through- 
 out Israel ^s generations and 'twas a sign between 
 Him and us as to who we are. 
 
 Well, here we are, the only people on earth 
 (with the broken off Branch, the Jews) keeping 
 God's Sabbath! We keep the day of the risen 
 Lord and the Jews who do not believe Christ is 
 the risen Lord continue keeping the old Sabbath. 
 
 By that brand alone we are Israel, or I am 
 a Dutchman and do not know how to reason from 
 promise to performance! 
 
 Every Sabbath of the year the Protestant 
 Episcopal Church all over the United States of 
 America repeat from their Prayer Book the 
 Benedictus or Jubilate Deo. They say they are 
 God's chosen people, Israel, and yet some of their 
 ministers will, I am certain, be heaving half- 
 bricks my way, because of statements taken from 
 the Bible to explain this. As I have lived most 
 of my life on a diet of half -bricks, I'm certain that 
 a few extra ones, even at the hands of my friends 
 the parsons, won't do me much harm, and the ex- 
 ercise may do them some good, they often need it. 
 
 BENEDICTUS REMARKS 
 
 St. Luke Chap. I. Jesus said he came but to "the 
 
 [68] Blessed be the lost sheep of the house of Israel" — 
 Lord God of Israel; for "my heritage," "my chosen," "my 
 he hath visited and re- dispersed," "my outcasts," "my in- 
 deemed his people; heritance," "my first-born," "my 
 sheep," "my witnesses," "mine 
 elect," "the well beloved of my soul," 
 "the Lord's flogk," "my servants," 
 "my nation," and "my people Israel," 
 and he knew whereof he spoke. 
 
158 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 BENEDICTUS 
 
 [69] And hath raised 
 up a mighty salvation for 
 us; in the house of his 
 servant David; 
 
 REMARKS 
 
 Jesus was of the royal seed of 
 David and was raised up for us and 
 has been our salvation; and through 
 us the whole world has had an op- 
 portunity for salvation. 
 
 [70] As he spake by the 
 mouth of his holy pro- 
 phets: which have been 
 since the world began; 
 
 The ruling house of Windsor is also 
 descended from David's seed and so 
 belongs to the House and Throne of 
 David. 
 
 Every prophecy inspired "by God 
 has or will come true at its ordained 
 time. 
 
 [71] That we should be 
 saved from our enemies: 
 and from the hand of all 
 that hate us. 
 
 As we have been. This has been 
 made true down through the ages. 
 November 11, 1918, was one recent 
 example of hundreds. The hand of 
 those who hate us has never suc- 
 ceeded in downing God's "battle 
 axe" and His servants. 
 
 [72] To perform the 
 mercy promised to our 
 forefathers: and to re- 
 member his Holy cove- 
 nant ; 
 
 Have we carried out our part after 
 being saved from our enemies? Have 
 we remembered the Covenant God 
 made with our forefathers.' I douibt 
 it! 
 
 [73] To perform the 
 oath which he swore to 
 our forefather Abraham: 
 that he would give us; 
 
 Every item promised by any of the 
 prophets has been fulfilled. Man- 
 asseh (U.S.A.), forgetfulness, has 
 left undone much; they do however 
 take on high ideals quicker than any 
 of the other Anglo-Saxon-Celtic 
 nations. The British flag to-day 
 floats over all the land given to 
 Abraham and Israel by a Covenant. 
 
 [74] That we being de- 
 livered out of the hand 
 of our enemies: might

 righteousness toef ore him : 
 all the days of our life. 
 
 [76] And thou, child, 
 shalt be caljed the pro- 
 phet of the Highest: for 
 thou shalt go ibefore the 
 face of the Lord to pre- 
 pare his ways; 
 
 [77] To give knowledge 
 of salvation unto his 
 people for the remission 
 of their sins. 
 
 [78] Throu^ the ten- 
 der mercy of our God: 
 whereby the day-spring 
 [or light] from on high 
 hath visited us [Israel]; 
 
 [79] To give light to 
 them that sit in darkness, 
 and in the shadow of 
 death: and to guide our 
 feet into the way of 
 peace. 
 
 REMARKS 
 
 Are we doing our best along this 
 line? 
 
 John the Baptist who preached 
 repentance as the first step in the 
 knowledge of salvation. 
 
 All Anglo-Saxondom and most of 
 the world have had this knowledge 
 given them through his 10 servants 
 Israel of the Anglo-Saxon breeds. 
 
 Christ said he came but to the 
 "lost sheep of the house of Israel." 
 He was the light that through Israel 
 was to lighten the whole world. And 
 he left his Kingdom on earth in 
 Charge of his ten servants the Ten 
 Tribes until He should come again. See 
 Luke 19: verses 12, 13. The light has 
 shone through Israel and over the face 
 of the whole earth. 
 
 Goodness knows the world that 
 sits in darkness as to the Creator's 
 plan has much need of redemption 
 through His executives the Anglo- 
 Saxon nations. His servant Israel 
 and the seed of David who are to 
 rule until Christ comes again, this 
 time to take the Kingdom. 
 
 If this Book of Common Prayer is also a 
 book of common sense, it must mean what it says. 
 Why say we will be saved from all onr enemies 
 — ^which was promised only to Israel — if we are 
 not Israeli Parsons, long-haired and short are 
 invited to answer that question the next time

 they repeat the Benedictus to their congregations. 
 
 Never in the world's history has there 
 been such a need for divine guidance to guide 
 our feet into the way of peace as in this year 1921 
 A.D. 
 
 When we had our back to the wall in the 
 spring of 1918, when Germany was making her 
 final thrust to dominate this world, materially, 
 politically and religiously, every Anglo-Saxon 
 nation, colony or settlement (all Israel) got on 
 their knees in prayer and humiliation before the 
 Supreme Ruler of this universe and admitting 
 their sins and shortcomings, asked for divine 
 guidance and strength to win through, — as you 
 did in Abraham Lincoln's time. 
 
 We won through and IVe often since won- 
 dered how many people really recognize who won 
 the war. Every nation secretly thinks it was the 
 big factor, but surely it was the God of Israel! 
 God used our nations as His battle axe and 
 weapons of war, and through His help we finally 
 won the war while the politicians of your country 
 and Britain have lost us the peace. 
 
 Read Isaiah; its all good and its so hard 
 to pick from the many, many references one that 
 is better than the rest! Take the 49th Chapter 
 for instance: 
 
 1. "Listen, isles, unto me [the Brith-ish or 
 Covenant Isles] ; and hearken, ye people, from far^' 
 [U.S.A., Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South 
 Africa, etc., all "from far/'] 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 161 
 
 3. "Thou art my servant, Israel, in whom I 
 will be glorified. 
 
 6. "I will also give thee [Israel] for a light to 
 the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto 
 the end* of the earth/' 
 
 Well, who have been the peoples to carry 
 the light, God's laws and commandments and 
 light, to the Gentiles and to the ends of the earth? 
 God's servants, Israel, were to do it. The Anglo- 
 Saxons alone have done it, therefore, the Anglo- 
 Saxons are Israel. Note in Chapter VII. where 
 the Protestant missionary societies have almost 
 100,000 missionaries and helpers working. Brit- 
 ain and her offspring are doing what Israel was 
 to do, therefore Britain, America, Australia, 
 Canada, Newfoundland, New Zealand, South Af- 
 rica and the other Anglo-Saxon Celtic communi- 
 ties the world over are God's chosen people. 
 His instruments, Israel, which means *' ruling with 
 God."* They have a divine commission and the 
 specifications are interwoven throughout both 
 the Old and the New Testaments, that the wise 
 who search the Scriptures may understand. Had 
 the Anglo-Saxons the world round made a proper 
 job of ** searching the Scriptures" as they were 
 instructed to do, they would be wise on how to 
 deal with all the problems that now afflict the 
 world. What would that be worth in dollars and 
 cents to America in this 1921st year of our Lord? 
 How much? What would you give to know how 
 
 *Young's analytical concordance. 
 
162 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 business prospects were going to pan out for the 
 next five, ten or fifteen years ? 
 
 There are hundreds of statements made 
 aUout Israel in the Bible, and no nation or assort- 
 ment of nations other than the Anglo-Saxon- 
 Celtic nations can fulfill or have fulfilled the 
 prophecies laid down, and I know of no single 
 instance of a prophecy about Israel that the 
 Anglo-Saxon people can not and do not fill to 
 the very letter. 
 
 Let us take for instance this statement of 
 the prophet Isaiah, born about 778 B.C.: 
 
 "Thus saith the Lord, in an acceptable time have 
 I heard thee [Israel], and in a day of salvation have 
 I helped thee : and I will preserve thee, and give thee 
 for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, 
 to cause to inherit the desolate heritages." (Isa. 49:8.) 
 
 If ever a nation was helped when they 
 sought salvation, surely it has been our fore- 
 fathers of Brith-ish or covenant stock ; and Israel 
 has been preserved and given for **a covenant 
 of the people, to establish the earth, and to cause 
 to inherit the desolate heritages." 
 
 I take the following facts from Whittaker 's 
 Almanac for 1920 to establish the fact that this 
 promise to Israel has been fulfilled up to date 
 and is still going strong. 
 
 Americans feel proud of their flag, Old 
 Glory, and they do well! But what about their 
 '* Older Glory," the flag that braved a thousand 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 163 
 
 years the battle and the breeze, the glorious 
 Union Jack? To-day it proudly floats over the 
 following countries, in Europe, Asia, Africa, Aus- 
 tralia, and Canada, as a visible evidence that the 
 British (Ephraim) section of Israel is carrying 
 out her God-given covenant to establish the earth, 
 however imperfectly, — still no other nation is do- 
 ing it so well, and we may well remember that 
 there is nothing perfect under the sun and even 
 it is alleged to have spots on it!

 What glorious comment on Brith-ish or 
 Covenant rule was presented to the world when 
 His Majesty Our King and Governor in 1915 
 sent out a call for more men! By hundreds of 
 thousands, aye by millions they, like the disciples 
 of old, dropped everything and followed the call 
 to save the world from the forces of evil bent on 
 destroying with fire and sword that human free- 
 dom which the Anglo-Saxon civilization had 
 through centuries been the means of preserving 
 and building up. 
 
 Behind our front lines where civilized 
 methods of burial could prevail, every British 
 soldier, from Tommy to the topmost general who 
 lost his life in the cause, wrapped in his army 
 blanket was taken to the cemetery under the folds 
 of that grand old banner, the British Ensign, for 
 Christian burial; and to-day their bodies lie in 
 thousands, row on row, while they rest in God in 
 peace, and their rest shall be glorious.

 IN FLANDERS' FIELDS. 
 (Written by Col. John McCrea of Guelph, 
 Ontario, Canada, Serving in 
 France, 1917.) 
 In Flanders' fields the poppies blow 
 
 Between the crosses, row on row, 
 That mark our place, and in the sky 
 
 The larks still bravely singing fly, 
 Scarce heard amid the guns below. 
 
 We are the dead. Short days ago 
 We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow. 
 
 Loved and were loved, and now we lie 
 In Flanders' fields. 
 
 Take up the quarrel with the foe 
 
 To you, from falling hands we throw 
 
 The Torch — ^be yours to hold it high. 
 
 If ye break faith with us who die 
 
 We shall not sleep though poppies grow 
 In Flanders' fields. 
 
 AMERICA'S ANSWER. 
 (Written by R. W. Lillard and appeared 
 
 in the New York Evening Post.) 
 Rest ye in peace, ye Flanders' dead. 
 
 The fight that ye so bravely lead 
 We've taken up. And we will keep 
 
 True 'faith with you who lie asleep 
 With each a cross to mark his bed 
 
 And poppies blowing overhead 
 Where once his own life blood ran red 
 In Flanders' fields. 
 
 Fear not that ye have died for naught 
 
 The Torch ye threw to us is caught 
 
 Ten million hands will hold it high; 
 
 And freedom's light shall never die.

DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 167 
 
 Thus did the souls of millions from the 
 land of Brother Jonathan respond to the appeal 
 of the little poem ^'In Flanders' Fields/' whose 
 author later gave his life in the cause. 
 
 Did you ever read Isaiah 11 : 12 and wonder 
 whether that ensign was the British ensign? 
 The King of Great Britain and Ireland and of 
 the Brith-ish Dominions beyond the seas, Em- 
 peror of India, is clearly of the seed of David as 
 is proved in Britain an Enduring Dynasty by 
 Milner, and the ensign which that root of 
 Jesse floats is the Union Jack. To it the Gentiles do 
 seek in Palestine and do rest under its folds. 
 Britain first and later America have been a haven 
 of rest for the oppressed of all the Gentile na- 
 tions. **And his rest shall be glorious." Peace 
 in Britain has been proverbial for centuries. 'Tis 
 a bit unsettled at present, but even at that, Bri- 
 tain is more settled than any other nation, with 
 the possible exception of the United States of 
 America. 
 
 Isaiah 11: 12. 
 
 Authorized Version Ferrar Fenton's Translation. 
 
 And he shall set up an ensign A.nd then He will raise up a 
 
 for the nations, and shall Flag to the Heathen, 
 
 assemble the outcasts of Israel, And all Israel's wanderers, and 
 
 and gather together the dis- Judah's Dispersion 
 
 persed of Judah from the four From the four Wings of the 
 
 comers of the earth. earth will collect. 
 
 What would we say are the facts in con- 
 nection with this prophecy? I figure it out in this 
 
168 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 way: Firstly, the British when they took pos- 
 session of the Holy Land and City hoisted their 
 ensign; and under the freedom of its folds all 
 classes of heathen and nationalities are collect- 
 ing for protection, and for rest from the persecu- 
 tions under the Turkish, Eussian and other flags. 
 Secondly, the Jews are, representatively, hiking 
 back to the Holy Land from the four corners of 
 the earth and under a Governor from Israel, Sir 
 Herbert Samuels ; and they will continue to come 
 until the Holy Land will again blossom as the 
 rose, as was predicted three thousand years ago. 
 It may not be amiss to point out that the 
 first national flag of the United States was called 
 *^The Grand Union'' and carried the Union Jack 
 in the upper corner as does the Canadian, Aus- 
 tralian, New Zealand and other Anglo-Saxon 
 nations. This flag was composed of thirteen 
 stripes of alternate white and red, one for each 
 British colony, and in the upper corner was the 
 British Union Jack of that period displaying the 
 two crosses of St. George and St. Andrews, as 
 introduced in 1707. 
 
 "This American Grand Union flag was raised by 
 Washington over the camp of his Army at Cam- 
 bridge, Mass., on January 1st, 1776, to the accom- 
 panying salute of thirteen guns. 
 
 "By this flag the 13 colonies testified that though 
 in arms, they still claimed to be Britons and were de- 
 manding for themselves all the rights of citizenship 
 which such relation conferred.'^ 
 
The first American flag called the "Grand Union", hoisted by

 Harvey 0. Higgins asks in March 
 McClures **Is there something wrong with the 
 American Mindf There most certainly is, 
 Harvey! but your dissecting knife did not re- 
 move it. The Soul of America knows more than 
 the reasoning mind of America can either see 
 
172 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 or understand. America's Soul was in seething 
 nnrest while for two years yon were cantioned to 
 be neutral in thought, word and deed. How free 
 you felt the day your first citizen declared Amer- 
 ica at war with Germany! The fetters binding 
 America's Soul burst their bonds and freed the 
 liberty-loving spirit they had in thrall. We at 
 the Front, three to four thousand miles away, in 
 spirit saw your shackles broken off and were glad, 
 but no more happy than were the millions of 
 Americans who had scarcely been able to look 
 your brother Canadians, Britons, and Frenchmen 
 in the eye because they were saving the world 
 for America as much as they were for Canada, 
 Britain or France and they and you knew it. 
 
 To-day America's Soul is again filled with 
 unrest, and Dr. O'Higgins prods the patient in 
 the back, in the front, in this corner and in that 
 and asks is the pain here or there, and finally 
 with a flourish he shouts: *^I have it! It's the 
 effect of your Pilgrim Forefathers' 'repression 
 and Soul fear' that still sticks in the fifty-five 
 per cent, of Americans descended from the Puri- 
 tans!" I wonder if he is right? Not being a 
 doctor or even a chiropractor, one hesitates to 
 say; but being a Eoadbuilder, one is not afraid 
 to hazard a guess that the Soul of America knows 
 more than its politicians understand. If Dr. 
 O'Higgins is correct, he has only touched the 
 fringe of the cause, because back of your Pilgrim 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 173 
 
 Puritan forefathers are your Brith-ish fore- 
 fathers, and back of them are your Israel fore- 
 fathers until you go back back to Joseph, Jacob, 
 Isaac and Abraham, who was God's friend, a 
 friend willing to go wherever God directed. 
 
 The Soul of America, in my opinion, is 
 troubled, because since the Armistice, your ideals 
 (and no nation has had higher ones) have been 
 temporarily scrapped and you apparently have 
 had no Washington, no Lincoln, no Roosevelt to 
 point the way in clear unmistakable tones and lead 
 the nation towards its real goal. 
 
 France was the friend of America at the 
 time of America's greatest need! America stood 
 silent for years, while France bled at every pore 
 in saving the world from destruction, before 
 General John Pershing stood in France beside the 
 monument of that noble Frenchman who fought 
 for America and saluting it said, ** Lafayette, we 
 are here!" 
 
 France spent almost everything she had; 
 one and a half millions of her citizen soldiers lie 
 buried along her battle-front from Ostend to 
 Switzerland. Her maimed and wounded by the 
 ten thousands still fill her hospitals. 
 
 To-day Germany is winning the peace by 
 the same bare-faced trickery her Von Bernstorfs 
 and Von Papens practiced in the United States 
 during the war, and what is America doing to 
 help her friend of yesterday, France?

 If the Soul of America was not restless 
 and unsettled under such a condition 'twere al- 
 most useless to have souls. 
 
 If America and Britain knew what the law 
 laid down by God in his National Constitution, 
 laws and statutes for all Israel nations was, they 
 would not hesitate for a day as to the proper and 
 only actions to take in this matter of debt. Every 
 Israelitish debtor had to be released every seven 
 years and the debt charged up to God who gives 
 his word that He will repay it ! 
 
 Is His credit good in America? Does *4n 
 God we trusf on your national coins to-day mean 
 what it says? If it does, you are challenged by 
 God's constitution for America to forego all in- 
 terest, and at the end of seven years the principle, 
 and He will repay it. 
 
 God promises such an outpouring of His 
 spirit when Israel sees and believes God's plan 
 for world redemption that they will become a 
 nation of priests, when no longer will it be neces- 
 sary for a preacher to say, **Know the Lord/' 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 175 
 
 because all shall know Him, from the least to 
 the greatest. 
 
 America's Soul knows that this is in the 
 offing and will he unsettled and restless until she 
 is doing her share to make God's Kingdom on 
 earth known to all the world and especially in the 
 home acres where the Bible containing God's in- 
 structions and prophecies is a much unread book 
 to the old families raised here for generations as 
 well as to the many who have swarmed into the 
 country. 
 
 America's eyes as well as Britain's eyes 
 are to be opened, so it's up to you to personally 
 rustle and get on to your job and study the plans 
 laid down by Almighty God, from whom Abraham 
 Lincoln and George Washington sought help and 
 from whom they received the wisdom and judg- 
 ment they possessed, and they humbly walked 
 with God, thus seeking His aid and receiving it 
 in due measure.

CHAPTER IX 
 
 In 1879 Rev. Josepli Wild, then preaching 
 in Brooklyn, N.Y., published a book, The Lost Ten 
 Tribes of Israel, in which he predicted the break- 
 tip of Russia within fifty years, the taking of Jer- 
 usalem and Palestine from Turkey and the giving 
 of it to the Jews for a national home. 
 
 This student of Israel about that time had 
 also predicted that the United States of America 
 would help Britain in her next war with Egypt; 
 though at the time most U.S.A. politicians were 
 so busy twisting the old lion*s tail and kicking it 
 in the ribs, almost without provocation save to 
 secure the Irish vote, that anyone who predicted 
 that they would work together was considered 
 more kinds of a fool than is permissible to put in 
 print. 
 
 Wlien 1882 came around and the world saw 
 with surprise and some nations with deep resent- 
 ment, that an American fleet did help the British 
 fleet at Alexandria, Egypt, my Scotch instinct 
 and reason told me that the Reverend Doctor's 
 dope along prophetic lines was good stuff and 
 proved to me the value of the Bible prophecies.

 Here are some messages the Prophet Isaiah 
 addressed to the Brith Colony in Brith-ain, which 
 colony had been there many, many hundreds of 
 years when he sent this epistle to them about 712 
 B.C., and they would be as well known in the Home 
 acres as is Alaska known to Washington to-day, 
 because of the unending commerce between them. 
 
 49:1. "Listen, O isles [the British or Covenant 
 Isles], unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far [the 
 Americans, Canadians, Australians, New Zealanders, 
 South Africans, etc.]. 
 
 3. "Thou art my servant, Israel, in whom I

 made her responsible for their up-bringing. What

 59:18. "According to their deeds, accordingly 
 he wiU repay, fury to his adversaries, recompense to 
 his enemies ; to the islands he will repay recompense.'' 
 [Brith-ain of the Islands has been recompensed for her

 60:9. "Surely the isles shall wait for me, and 
 the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, 
 their silver and their gold with them, unto the name 
 of the Lord thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, 
 because he hath glorified thee. 
 
 12. "For the nation and kingdom that will not 
 serve thee [Israel] shall perish; yea, those nations 
 shall be utterly wasted." 
 
 The * isles'' referred to are the British 
 Isles from which sailed the ships of Tarshish as 
 is shown by Eev. Dr. Wm. H. Poole in his book 
 Anglo-Israel, published in 1882, now out of print, 
 from which I quote the following data on Tar- 
 shish : 
 
 "Tarshish was a name given to one of Noah's 
 grandchildren. Gen. 10:4. 'And the sons of Javan, 
 Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.' It was 
 the custom in those early days to name the country 
 after the person who was the owner or ruler or chief. 
 'By these (persons named) were the Islands of the 
 Gentiles divided in their lands.' To Tarshish was 
 given the west coast of Europe and that country was 
 so named as may be seen upon ancient maps, several 
 of which I have before me. Upon one of these very 
 ancient maps England is called Javan. 
 
 "The Rev. James Mcintosh, curate, says 'Tarshish 
 when resolved into its elements is — 'tar' a border of 
 fringe round about and 'shish' bright, shiny, white 
 
182 DESTINY OF BKITAIN AND AJMERICA 
 
 and means the land is white or bright round about 
 which is the name given to England from the white- 
 ness of its cliffs on the southern coast. No name more 
 fitly describes England to those early traders coming 
 northward to Britain from the Bay of Biscay.' 
 
 "In 2 Chron, 9:21: "For the king's [Solomon's] 
 ships went to Tarshish with the servants of Huram : 
 every three years once come the ships of Tarshish 
 bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and pea- 
 cocks. 
 
 "In Ezek. 27 :12, 19 : "Tarshish was thy merchant 
 by reason of the multitude of all kind of riches ; with 
 silver, iron, tin, and lead, they traded in thy fairs. 
 
 " ^Dan also and Javan going to and fro occupied 
 in thy fairs: bright iron, cassia and calamus, were in 
 thy market.' 
 
 "And in I Kings 10 :22 : 'For the king had at sea 
 a navy of Tharshish with the navy of Hiram: once 
 in three years came the navy of Tharshish, bringing 
 gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.' " 
 
 Tyre was the great trading emporium in 
 those days, and the 'bright iron, tin, and lead from 
 Cornwall were apparently the heaviest cargo 
 brought by the *'navy of Tharshish'^ and Sol- 
 omon 's ships, both of which were nsed in the com- 
 merce carried on between Tyre and Tarshish. 
 
 In the 66th Chapter of Isaiah, Tarshish is 
 mentioned in a manner confirming the above view. 
 
 Verse 19. "And I will set a sign among them, 
 and I will send those that escape of them unto the 
 nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, 
 to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have 
 not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and 
 they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles." 
 
DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 183 
 
 These passages make it clear that Tarshish 
 was a long way from Palestine and was reached by 
 sea route north and west and that Tarshish and 
 the isles afar off were in the same direction and 
 that Tarshish then, as now, was given to trade. 
 
 "Isaiah also affirms that the citizens of Tarshish 
 did not worship Jehovah at that time that ^They had 
 not heard my fame, neither seen my glory : and also 
 that they would, in future, become missionaries to 
 declare my glory among the Gentiles/ The remnant 
 of Israel were sent to Tarshish and to the Isles of Tar- 
 shish to the Isles afar off. The "escaped" of Israel 
 and the "preserved'' of Israel were sent over to Tar- 
 shish and the Lord promised them four things — the 
 comely, the beautiful, the excellent and the glorious.'' 
 
 Have not the promises been fulfilled and 
 have not the Isles been world missionaries and the 
 means of declaring God's glory among the 
 Gentiles 1 The only answer is yes ! yes ! 
 
 '^When the power of the Medo-Persian Empire 
 was broken and all hindrances removed, the commis- 
 sion from the Lord was given to Israel, Isa. 23 :6, 10 : 
 Tass ye over to Tarshish .... Pass through thy land 
 as a river, daughter of Tarshish.' 
 
 "They could now go as a river, in streams (our 
 historians say in waves), none to hinder them, so they 
 are commanded to go to Tarshish. They went in a 
 series of invasions. Benjamin the last tribe going over 
 in 1066 making the Union of Jacob complete in the 
 Covenant land Brith-ain. 
 
184 DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 "In Psalms 72 :10 : ^The kings of Tarshisb and of 
 the isles shall bring presents that people on the isles 
 of the west were a noble and generous people and they 
 still run true to form as every calamity the world 
 round attests in this day and generation." 
 
 "Sir Ed'vrard Cressey, a distinguished Anti- 
 quarian in his history of England says: ^The British 
 tin mines mainly supplied the glorious adornment of 
 Solomon's temple/ 
 
 " Tarshish', says Hillier, 'was the west coast of 
 Europe, afterwards called Gaul and in later times 
 
 Spain >'_ond France " 
 
 "In Ezekiel 27:12 and 15 the place and destiny 
 of the ships is described by its merchandise and its 
 pursuits, and again Tarshish is spoken of in connec- 
 tion with the trade of a western country. Of Tyre is 
 said ^Javan was thy merchants in all riches, with 
 silver, iron, tin and lead, they traded in thy fair and 
 Dan (Ireland) is here associated with Javan or Eng- 
 land.'' In the same chapter it is said, verse 25 : ^The 
 ships of Tarshish did sing of thee in thy market and 
 thou wast replenished and made very glorious in the 
 midst of the seas.' 
 
 "There is beauty and propriety in this allusion by 
 the prophet to the sons of the Hebrew sailors as they 
 made the name of Tyre honored, and glorious, away 
 beyond the pillars of Hercules (Gibraltar) or as 
 viewed from Mount Zion it would seem to be in the 
 midst of the seas. 
 
 "All historians knew that the "Western Isles sup- 
 plied the East with all manner of elaborately wrought 
 metals, of gold and silver, and brass, bright iron and 
 tin. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 185 
 
 *'In Homer, Book 18, a free translation de- 
 scribes the smelting operations going on in the 
 foundries on the Tarshish Isles: Homer lived about 
 850 B.C." 
 
 'In hissing flames huge silver bars were rolled 
 Stubborn brass and tin and solid gold. 
 
 A darker metal intrenched the place 
 
 And piles of glittering tin the enclosure grace.' 
 
 Homer also describes the soldiers' coat of 
 
 arms 
 
 'Ten rows of azure still the work enfold 
 Twice ten of tin and twelve of ductile gold.^ 
 
 Again : 
 
 'The shields completed vast and strong 
 
 A breastplate dazzling bright as flames of fire forged 
 
 And next a weighty helmet for his head. 
 
 Fair, richly wrought, with crests of gold: 
 Then last, well fitted greaves of pliant tin. 
 
 Now at his will, and as the work required. 
 The stubborn brass, and tin, and precious gold 
 
 And silver first he melted in the fire.' 
 
 Brith-ain, at this early date, 850 B.C., was 
 the manufacturing centre of the world, yet your 
 histories and ours would have it that in Caesar's 
 time we were skin-clad barbarians. Such lying 
 statements are easily refuted by any student who 
 takes the trouble to look into the facts as pre- 
 sented in St. Paul in Britain and histories that 
 gave facts instead of fiction about our ancestors.* 
 
 *St. Paul in Britain, by Rev. R. W. Morgan. 
 
186 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 Britons and Bretons have always been the 
 advance-guard of their time in education, mode of 
 living, methods of doing trade as well as in all 
 forms of culture. 
 
 "The Prophet Jeremiah 9 :10, might well say 
 'Silver spread into plates was brought from these 
 islands/ '•' 
 
 What about ivory, apes and peacocks? Did 
 Britain export them! Sure she did in the same 
 way iron merchants now export their iron as 
 * * pigs ' ' by the ton. Dr. Poole says : 
 
 "If I could peep into the ledgers of the merchants 
 of Tarshish who spread gold and silver and brass and 
 tin into plates for the Eastern markets, I would find 
 in their bills of sale so many tons of Apes and Pea- 
 cocks and Lambs. They used these terms as we now 
 use "Pigs" in the iron trade. When these metals are in 
 process of smelting and refining they give a fine speci- 
 men of the variegated hues of the Peacock^s plum- 
 age and in certain processes of preparation they were 
 named after the bird whose plumage they so much 
 resembled. Three thousand years hence people may 
 wonder that in our day gold eagles were so plentiful 
 and of such high repute among us." [Since the war 
 "there ain^t no such bird" seen in commerce or ex- 
 change!] 
 
 "Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) wrote: 'Beyond the 
 pillars of Hercules (Gibraltar) the ocean flows around 
 the earth. In this ocean, however, there are Islands, 
 and those are very large and are called Britannic, 
 Albion and lerne, which are larger than those before 
 named. They lie beyond the Baltic and there are not 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 187 
 
 a few small islands around the Britannic Isles and 
 around Iberia.' 
 
 "Herodotus 484-425 B.C. describing the tin 
 Islands in the West of Europe says: 'The tin came 
 from Cornwall, which, when mixed with copper, form- 
 ed the well-known Bronze of the early times.' 
 
 "Diodorus says: 'Tin and bright iron were 
 brought into Gaul from the Western Isles 620 years 
 before Christ.' 
 
 "Pliny says: 'The whole of the Roman Empire 
 was supplied with metals and tin from Britannia. He 
 says Greece too was supplied with tin and sundry 
 metals from the same source 907 B.C.' 
 
 "Strabo, born 63 B.C., informs us of a Phoenician 
 captain who destroyed a rival ship rather than let the 
 crew know where Tarshish was or how to land their 
 vessels at Tarshish. 
 
 "To Javan was given the Brith (or covenant) 
 Isles. Those Isles on the ancient maps and in the 
 Bible are called Isles of the West and Isles of Tar- 
 shish. To Javan's two sons, Tarshish and Kittim, was 
 given the Western Coast of Europe, Spain, Portugal, 
 and France. 
 
 "Xenophon, who wrote 100 years later than 
 Ezekiel, described one of those ships of Tarshish 
 starting for Gades, which is Latin for Cadiz, on the 
 Atlantic coast of Spain." 
 
 These and dozens of other references show 
 that Spain, Portugal and France were called Tar- 
 shish and that the Isles of Tarshish were the ad- 
 joining British Islands. Having gotten that key 
 
188 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 in your right hand you are now in a position to 
 unlock doors that have puzzled Bible students 
 without it, for ages. Now take, for instance, 
 Armageddon, that great war which America and 
 the world has still to fight. 
 
 I was much interested recently listening to 
 that great war correspondent and student of past 
 and current events in Europe, Sir Philip Gibbs, a 
 typical Englishman, quiet, thoughtful, self-effac- 
 ing, delivering a lecture *^ without a superlative, 
 almost without emphasis, and without flam- 
 buoyancy '' — the kind that we all so much enjoy, 
 and some of us wish we could imitate ; but we re- 
 gretfully realize that, like British lawns, it takes 
 time and education to grow that sort. 
 
 Well, Sir Philip said there were still two 
 
 chances for war within ten years, one was by a 
 
 union of Kussia and Germany, and the other by an 
 
 alliance between Russia and the Mohammedans. 
 
 For the information of Sir Philip Gibbs and any 
 
 others who may desire same, it may be mentioned 
 
 that the Bible says that Russia will take advantage 
 
 of both these unions. Russia is to combine with 
 Prussia and also with all the Mohammedan and 
 pagan nations, and led by *Hhe Chief Prince of 
 Rosh'' will make their final world drive for the 
 Holy Land, Constantinople and the Suez Canal. 
 It is estimated that it will be timed to commence 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 189 
 
 about 1928 and end about 1936, and according to 
 prophecy this will be the last war on this war- 
 cursed earth for 1,000 years. I wrote to that 
 effect last year to one of Britain's ablest army 
 commanders, but he could not agree, saying 
 Armageddon could not come for fifty years, — ^not 
 a great war. Another British Army commander 
 wrote that it could not come before a hundred 
 years or Europe would be bankrupt; but either 
 they or the stone Bible, the Pyramid, is mistaken 
 and I 'm sure they will both approve of my back- 
 ing my faith on the latter, as up to date its pre- 
 dictions have come true for the outstanding events 
 in Israel's history since the world began. 
 
 The Pyramid of Gizeh is the oldest build- 
 ing in the world. It is without question the most 
 wonderful building in the world to-day, though 
 built by Shem, son of Noah, 2170 B.C. It was 
 built, I believe, under divine guidance, because it 
 foretells in stone and in Hebrew measurements 
 what the Bible foretells in Hebrew words — the 
 outstanding prophecies made concerning God's 
 chosen Hebrew people, both the House of Judah 
 and the House of Israel and even located their 
 being joined together in Jerusalem before Arma- 
 geddon. Isaiah said (Isa. 19 :19, 20) : **In that day 
 shall there be an altar to the Lord in the midst 
 of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border 
 thereof to the Lord. And it shall be for a sign 
 and for a witness unto the Lord of hosts in the 
 
190 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 land of Egypt.'' Well, Mr. Business Man, there 
 she stands just where they said it would be, ove^ 
 four thousand years old, God's witness giving 
 visible, tangible confirmation to the prophecies 
 contained in our Bible. And yet, men sometimes 
 wonder if there is an unseen Ruler of the uni- 
 verse ! To-day you can rub your hands over the 
 measurements in enduring granite showing when 
 the far-seeing and divinely inspired architect indi- 
 cated that Armageddon would start and finish and 
 as yet you and your leaders are blind to this visible 
 evidence placed in Egypt, your early home, for 
 your and your nation's guidance. 
 
 Why ? And again why ? 
 
 Is it because the learned professors in your 
 universities mostly ** finished" their education 
 in Germany and absorbed so much of that 
 German-Jewish-made antichristian higher criti- 
 cism that belittles and pooh-poohs the ^^more 
 sure word of prophecy" and makes light of the 
 bulk of our Bible that they fail to see God's 
 prophecies being made good by history every year 
 that we are on His earth. 
 
 Mr. D. Davidson, M.C., M.C.I, one of the 
 wisest students of the recent developments in 
 Pyramid Chronology points out in the September 
 issue of the Covenant People how the Pyramid in 
 measurements in stone showed war was overhang- 
 ing Israel from November 8, 1912, the time of 
 the Balkan troubles, and how from August 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 191 
 
 4th, 1914, Israel had to bend her back and 
 was not free to stand upright until we passed 
 through the low passage which extended in these 
 stone measurements from August 4th, 1914, to 
 November 11th, 1918, when again Israel peoples 
 could stand erect and breathe freely with war re- 
 moved by the Armistice. 
 
 July 12th, 1920, Israel again had to bow 
 her head and pass under two removable yokes 
 which extend until November 10th, 1921. These 
 may be the yokes that Labor and the Sinn Fein 
 Irish have placed upon all Israel, but whatever 
 they are they will be removed November 10th, 
 1921, when again we can stand upright until 1928 
 ushers in the time of trouble foretold as that great 
 day of God Almighty, Armageddon preceeded by 
 the final smashing of Turkey by U.S.A. and 
 Britain. 
 
 Our allies in Armageddon will be Sheba, 
 which is India, Dedan, which is Arabia (the sons 
 of Ishmael, who were always to dwell in tents 
 as they always have, and who were to become a 
 nation, as they did when that young Englishman, 
 Colonel Lawrence, formed them into one during 
 the late war ; and Winston Churchill has now made 
 an Arab ally, Feisul, King of Mesopotamia;) 
 the ^^ merchants of Tarshish^' (recently termed the 
 ** Shopkeepers of Britain''); and all the young 
 lions thereof. 
 
 The shopkeepers of Britain (formerly the 
 
192 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 ** merchants of Tarshish'') and their contemptible 
 little army were referred to by his nibs, the alleged 
 all highest Emperor Wilhelm of Germany, now 
 doing time at Doom, and dodging tax paying. In 
 1887 Queen Victoria of Great Britain and Ireland 
 was presented with a chart showing her descent 
 from King Divid of Jerusalem, and a copy was 
 also sent to the Emperor of Germany. Bill of the 
 upturned moustache secured this data, believed it 
 and thought, being the eldest son of Queen Vic- 
 toria's eldest daughter, that he was the King Pin 
 in Israel, and so was God's battle-axe and weapons 
 of war, which he figured were made for Germany, 
 hence all his blather about ^^Me und Gott,'' etc., 
 and his condescension in taking Gott into partner- 
 ship with him in his war schemes and placing 
 ''Gott mit uns^' on the belt of every soldier who 
 wore a German uniform. Had he been as wise as 
 he was vain, he would have remembered that **by 
 their fruits ye shall know them'' applies to all 
 nations, peoples and churches, kings and rulers. 
 All are not Israel who say they are, but many are 
 of the congregation of Satan ! The Kaiser and his 
 nation will yet receive the punishment due for 
 their outrages against humanity, against Israel 
 and against God the creator and ruler of this 
 universe. They cannot possibly dodge it. 
 
 When in Germany, a friend asked if I would 
 like to meet the Kaiser's eldest sister, as we were 
 temporarily living under the same roof, her 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 193 
 
 palace being occupied as Headquarters of the 
 Corps Canadian. 
 
 **Sure, I'd like to do anything once, pro- 
 vided it did not cost too much/' I said. So we 
 were introduced and spent a pleasant hour 
 deciphering autographs in an album and reading 
 character from them, though we were not sup- 
 posed to fraternize at that time. But seeing a 
 British staff general present when we entered, my 
 conscience did not trouble me ; besides, rules and 
 regulations were never a Canadian's long suit in 
 the army or elsewhere. 
 
 Well, the Princess was quite concerned in 
 those days about *^poor Wilhelm"! and wondered 
 to me, mind you, what they would do with him! 
 Now, I had a whole lot of things 3 'd wanted to do 
 to him for four and a half years but the situation 
 forbade me mentioning them in detaiJ, to his 
 relative. Perhaps it was my temporary military 
 training that prevented me from making a direct 
 reply to the Princess' pointed question. Anyway, 
 I sidestepped it and turned the conversation on to 
 a side line. What wouldn't I give to be able to 
 * * spill all the beans ' ' I gathered in that chateau ! 
 'Twould make interesting reading but 'tisn't 
 done, even among Canadians. 
 
 Well, who else do you suppose are going 
 to take part with the ^^ merchants of Tarshish" in 
 the great battle of Armageddon? The Kaiser re- 
 ferred to the British as a nation of **shop- 
 
194 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 keepers/' and we often speak of the old British 
 Lion. Well, at Armageddon, there will be *Hhe 
 merchants of Tarshish" and beside them will be 
 **all the young lions thereof.'' 
 
 "Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tar- 
 shish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto 
 thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? Hast thou 
 gathered thy company to take a prey ? To carry away 
 silver and gold. To take away cattle and goods, 
 To take a great spoil ? .... In that day when my peo- 
 ple of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou [Chief Prince 
 of Rosh et al] not know it? And thou shalt come up 
 against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the 
 land; it shall be in the latter days.'' (Ezek. 38:13, 
 14, 16). 
 
 This war is to take place in the Holy Land 
 and will be finished by 1934-6 according to the best 
 authorities and as I have shown that America is 
 a young lion from Britain, or the Covenant Land, 
 the first born and the strongest of the old lion's 
 cubs, and as the Bible specifically says that all 
 the young lions will be there, America must be and 
 will be on the job as she was at Alexandria in 1882. 
 A fine healthy lot of use there will be in this land 
 war for capital dreadnaught ships at forty mil- 
 lion dollars a throw ! Fast cruisers and destroyers, 
 yes, and ships for carrying troops, and aeroplanes, 
 etc., yes, though I see your air officers' estimates 
 for such aeroplane ships have been canned and 
 chucked into the waste basket by Congress. **Who 
 is blind but my servant Israel?" 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 195 
 
 What will it cost America when she enters 
 Armageddon unprepared I wonder 1 If Americans 
 knew their prospects and future they would fear 
 Japan as little as they now fear Canada, Aus- 
 tralia or New Zealand. 
 
 Armageddon and the forces who will fight 
 it are plainly shaping up to-day for this war as 
 were the forces of Germany getting ready, and 
 discernibly so by students of warfare like Lord 
 Koberts, Admiral Sir John Fisher, and our Late 
 King Edward for fourteen years before 1914, and 
 yet, instead of preparing for it, your vote-catching 
 politicians, your Hearsts, your Sinn Feiners and 
 pro-Germans are all trying to stir up strife be- 
 tween Brother John of the Isles and Brother 
 Jonathan f ropi afar who will each need the help of 
 Japan and of each other as never before in their 
 histories. 
 
 I wish I had the time to elaborate upon 
 what the Bible tells of this coming war and lay 
 down the plan of campaign for it, but its beyond 
 my limit of time and I have already strung this 
 much farther than I had intended, until, I fear I 
 will be wearing out my welcome staying so long 
 at my first visit and partaking of such a hearty 
 meal while marking out for you this bridgehead. 
 
 That reminds me of a hotel I used to 
 patronize in my younger days where they gave 
 you a good full farmer's dinner, chicken or roast 
 
196 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 beef for twenty-five cents per head, which sounds 
 almost unreal now. Well, this proprietor was a 
 real *^ Boniface '^ with a sign above his sideboard 
 which read: 
 
 **Eat Hearty and give the House a Good 
 Name.'' 
 
 I wish I could with confidence hang out 
 such a sign for you to eat heartily of the food con- 
 tained in this screed, but at any rate you can give 
 the House of Israel a good name. 
 
 Perhaps a sign like they used to hang out 
 at the Barn Stormers' performance of Macbeth in 
 the Western States would be appropriate for me 
 to put up : 
 
 *^ Don't shoot! He's doing the best he 
 can!"

CHAPTER X. 
 
 Do you wonder that during the late war — 
 when almost everyone at times lost heart and felt 
 that we were nearly at the end of our tether — I 
 never for one moment felt that we would not win ! 
 I was the incurable optimist ! 
 
 At the Front a half -brick diet was my more or 
 less constant companion, mostly deserved for 
 breaking rules and the King's regulations while 
 endeavouring to push on with roads. One compli- 
 ment paid me I remember. After the Armistice, 
 when every officer's record, ability, capacity, and 
 usefulness had to be placed on paper and sent to 
 the War Office, my record was sent to a certain 
 major-general, and he endorsed on it : 
 
 "A splendid organizer of Labor, 
 A Fine Roadbuilder 
 Constant in Adversity 
 And wise in counsel/^ 
 
 That was going pretty strong for a regular 
 soldier not given to sprinkling sugar on your army 
 rations. But the main thing was ** Constant in 
 Adversity, ' ' and I could be constant in adversity, 
 because I believed the God-inspired words spoken 
 
 198 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 199 
 
 by the prophets, and I believed God meant just 
 what they said He did. Goodness knows, there 
 was room for a few optimists in the fall of 1917 
 at Paschendale and in the spring of '18 in front of 
 Amiens ! 
 
 I knew Israel was to be punished in measure by 
 the stripes of men, and we certainly got an over- 
 flowing dose, bnt no more than we deserved, and 
 no more than was necessary to bring all the na- 
 tions of Israel to their knees in prayer and humili- 
 ation, asking for the help of the Almighty God. 
 From that time on we went forward until we won. 
 
 However, we still worship idols and golden 
 calves, idols of wealth and idols of fashion and 
 popularity; idols of ease and comfort and the 
 movies ! We nationally waste much substance in 
 more or less riotous living; we have food almost 
 to burn, while sections of Europe and Asia are 
 dying by the millions, without causing us to turn a 
 hair ; yet they are our brothers. 
 
 Abraham Lincoln in a proclamation to the 
 Ajuerican nation, in 1863, after describing the 
 benefits bestowed upon his nation, said : 
 
 **But we have forgotten God! We are too proud 
 to pray to the God who made us. ' ' 
 
 I wonder what Lincoln would say to-day, could 
 he see the nation he was chief executive of fifty- 
 eight years ago. If it was true then that you had 
 forgotten God, then how much more true it is to- 
 day, with the mad hustle and bustle of life in your 
 
200 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 big cities, and the Lord's Day given over largely 
 to golf, motoring, and pleasure, while the churches 
 with their few hundreds languish. 
 
 Well, gentlemen, don't forget that you will have 
 to pay the bill and will continue to do so, if you do 
 not mend your ways, as you did in the sixties ; and 
 the judgment for you and your sons and 
 daughters is as surely being ground out by the 
 mills of God as it was sixty years ago before your 
 Civil War, when Lincoln saw it and made no bones 
 of plainly telling you about it in his proclamations 
 to your nation. As Boss Tweed once remarked, 
 when caught with the goods, what are you going 
 to do about it 1 
 
 For these and other national sins and short- 
 comings and because of our failure to deal justly, 
 to love mercy, and to walk humbly with God, as 
 your martyred President, Abraham Lincoln, did 
 during his years of service to America, and as 
 George Washington did before him, we will re- 
 quire another term of terrific war to purify 
 our nation and yours, and we will surely get it in 
 Armageddon which still has to be fought; but it 
 will be won as was the late war, with God's help, 
 by His battle axe and weapons of war, with which 
 He promises to smash nations and kingdoms, i.e., 
 by Israel, His chosen servant, *4n whom and by 
 whom he will yet be glorified. ' ' 
 
 1. Listen, isles [British] , unto me ; and hearken, 
 ye people, from far [U.S.A.] 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 201 
 
 3. Thou art my servant, Israel, in whom I will 
 be glorified. 
 
 6. And he said, It is a light thing that thou [0 
 isles and people from far] shouldest be my servant 
 [what for?] to raise up the tribes of Jacob [why the 
 isles if the Ten Tribes were not in them?], and to re- 
 store the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee 
 [isles, or Israel] for a light to the Gentiles, that thou 
 mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth. 
 (Isa. 49:1, 3, 6.) 
 
 Now, to every preacher I submit that as the 
 end of the earth is not yet with ns, somewhere is 
 God^s chosen people Israel who are the light- 
 bearers to the Gentiles. Gentlemen, where are 
 they? Are they in Russia, Norway, Sweden, Den- 
 mark, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Greece, 
 Africa, or Iceland, or where ? 
 
 This same people must possess all the other 
 marks of Israel, among which are the following : 
 
 They must keep the Sabbath. 
 
 They must be invincible in war. 
 
 They must possess the gate of their enemies, — the 
 sea. 
 
 They must be not the least, but the chiefest of 
 nations. 
 
 They must possess Joseph's blessings, now in the 
 hands of Britain, U.S.A., and the other Anglo-Saxon 
 nations. 
 
 They must have ruling over the nation or com- 
 pany of nations, a King, of the Royal seed of David. 
 
 Who are the light-bearers to-day to the 
 Gentile heathen nations ? Surely it is none other 
 
202 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 than the Anglo-Saxons; who, therefore, must be 
 God's servant, Israel. 
 
 Now, Gentlemen of the Cloth, — University 
 professors not barred, — it is no use sidestepping 
 this question. Either these statements are true 
 or they are false. If they are true, God's King- 
 dom is right here on earth with a visible enduring 
 dynasty ruling over it just as foretold to David 
 King of Israel (Psalm 89), and it will continue 
 till Christ comes to rule His kingdom. Moreover, 
 you don't have to die to be of it nationally; every 
 believer in Christ, as St. Paul says, is of Israel. 
 Mr. W. Pascoe Goard in the national message of 
 the Bible writes : 
 
 The Bible knows a threefold presentation of the 
 kingdom of God. 
 
 1. The universal kingdom of God ^^The Lord hath 
 set His throne in the heavens and His kingdom ruleth 
 over all.'* Manifestly this is not the throne upon which 
 David reigned. 
 
 2. The national kingdom of God on Mount Zion, 
 of which we shall have more to say. This was David^s 
 kingdom. 
 
 3. The ecclesiastical, or spiritual kingdom, of 
 which, for instance, the Lord spoke to Nicodemus. 
 "Except a man be born again he cannot see the king- 
 dom of God.'' This constitutes the apostolic message 
 of the Church, and with that we shall not deal further. 
 
 Regarding the national kingdom of God estab- 
 lished upon Mount Zion, let us make enquiry. Of that 
 Kingdom certain general things may be said in order to 
 give direction to our thoughts. 
 
 It is not an universal kingdom ! It is not a king- 
 dom established at its inception, over all men, nor over 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 203 
 
 all nations ! It is not exclusively a spiritual kingdom, 
 but a national and material kingdom, over which has 
 been set a very material throne ! 
 
 The purpose of this kingdom of Jehovah among 
 the nations seems to resemble the purpose of Jesus 
 Christ among individual men. It is the enlightener, 
 the leader, the librator, and the savior of the nations. 
 It seems indeed to be God's plan to save men, one by 
 one, through the redemption wrought out by Jesus 
 Christ the Saviour, and to save nations by the ministry 
 of the chosen nation. 
 
 What excuse will avail for being a blind 
 leader of the blind when God's Word, which we 
 are told to search, is so plainly written that the 
 ordinary man who searches the Scriptures can 
 read and understand? 
 
 How much good will it do you, Gentlemen 
 of the Cloth, to plead: **The higher critics mis- 
 led me!*' Were you, gentlemen, bidden to study 
 the higher critics or to ** search the Scriptures'"? 
 You were specifically hidden to find the sheep 
 that' were lost, *Hhe flock of my pasture" and this 
 flock according to the Word ^^are men"; the Lost 
 Ten Tribes of Israel were His *4ost sheep," **his 
 flock." What have you or your church done to 
 find them? Mostly nothing. Well its up to you! 
 
 Now here is another waymark. When 
 Jacob was on his way from Beersheba to Haran, 
 he stopped at Luz, and that night he had a won- 
 derful vision of a ladder reaching from earth to 
 heaven and angels of God ascending and descend- 
 
204 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 ing upon it, and the Lord stood above it and told 
 him his seed should be as the dust of the earth 
 and in his seed all the families of the earth should 
 be blessed and He would be with him and keep 
 him. When Jacob awaked out of his sleep he was 
 much awed, and he said, * * This is none other but 
 the house of God" and he not only called the name 
 of the place Bethel (meaning house of God) but 
 he anointed the stone whereon he had slept and 
 called that the house of God. (Gen. 28: 22.) So 
 Israel used this symbol to remind them of God^s 
 presence. In their travels they took this vener- 
 ated stone representing to their minds God's 
 house. Iron rings were inserted in either end to 
 slip a pole through, for ease in transporting as 
 they moved, and it was placed in a tent when they 
 rested. A recent examination shows the iron 
 rings to be worn to paper thinness and as it has 
 only moved a few hundred miles since it was 
 brought to Ireland by Jeremiah in 576-8 B.C., all 
 this wear must have taken place during its moving 
 from place to place with Israel before it reached 
 Ireland. 
 
 Throughout the -Old Testament a stone or rock 
 is frequently mentioned, and considering their 
 regard for the stone which Jacob called God's

 same stone which was referred to in Exodus 17, 
 when Moses smote the **rock,'' and this may be 
 what the margin refers to as the ^Hhrone of the

 Lord'' in that same chapter. Again, it is not hard 
 to believe that ** God's house" may have been 
 *Hhe throne of the Lord" upon which Solomon 
 sat in place of his father. 
 
 Three thousand years later, King George 
 the Fifth sat upon the throne of Great Britain 
 and Ireland and what did King George sit upon 
 when he was crowned? Upon that very stone with 
 the old iron rings much worn through the years 
 of travelling; and it has had an honored place in 
 the Coronation Chair for centuries. In fact, 
 every English, Scotch, and Irish King who has 
 reigned over Israel since Jeremiah took it to Ire- 
 land has been crowned sitting upon it — with the 
 exception of ** Bloody Mary" (who sat in a chair 
 which had been blessed by the Pope of that day). 
 
 To-day it is in Westminster Abbey in Bri- 
 tain under a stone arch upon which is engraven 
 ** Surely this is the House of God" and looks out 
 on the graves of those illustrious warriors who 
 for centuries have served as God's battle-axe and 
 weapons of war and have given their lives that 
 God's throne and God's kingdom might endure. 
 
 Armistice Day, November 11, 1920, wit- 
 nessed a spectacle the like of which has never be- 
 fore been seen on this round earth, when our 
 King, as Chief Mourner, our Princes, our Prime 
 Ministers, heads of the Army, Navy and Church 
 followed the remains of **The Unknown War- 
 rior" to his last resting-place in Westminster 
 Abbey — a fit representative of those hundreds of 
 
206 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 thousands who gave all they had and all they 
 hoped to be and died in defence of God's King- 
 dom on earth, not for pomp, vain pride or glory, 
 but for service, service to humanity, service to 
 our weaker brethren and nations, service to the 
 whole world. Kipling's words were most ap- 
 priate : 
 
 "God of our fathers, known of old, 
 Lord of our far-flung battle-line, 
 
 Beneath whose awful hand we hold 
 Dominion over palm and pine — 
 
 Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, 
 Lest we forget — lest we forget! 
 
 The tumult and the shouting dies. 
 The captains and the kings depart, 
 
 Still stands thine ancient sacrifice. 
 An humble and contrite heart. 
 
 Lord God of Hosts be with us yet. 
 Lest we forget, lest we forget!" 
 
 This last war our politicians said was 
 fought to end war — ^but how far from it ! 
 
 There is going to he a new world as a result 
 of this and the next war, and the makings of this 
 new world and the next war are already in the 
 pot stewing. The *^Reds" wish to have this stew 
 flavored with lots of blood, blood of the capitalists, 
 the intelectuals*, anyone who by merit has lifted 
 
 *1,766,118 murders were perpetrated in Eussia, by the 
 Jewish Eeds, as published in their national Tidende, 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 207 
 
 himself above the conunon. Poor deluded people, 
 they know not what they do ! 
 
 Labor wants this stew inside and out 
 strongly flavored with unionism. ** Join our union 
 or you can't work; we won't let you!" High 
 wages, higher wages and short, shorter and 
 shortest hours until they won't have to work at 
 all ! They want to say who shall work ; of course 
 these chaps who went overseas to save the stay- 
 at-homes' hides — they can't let soldiers, who have 
 served the whole world so well, into the Carpen- 
 ters', Painters' or Plumbers' Union; they might 
 displace in time some of the stay-at-homes, so 
 Lord Haig's pleading for his soldiers availeth 
 naught. Their unions say it wouldn't do! This is 
 the age when all autocracies are headed for the 
 scrapheap. and the labor union that thinks to-day 
 it can hold back fair-dealing with real justice to 
 union and non-union labor does not see what is 
 coming and is riding for a fall. Brith-ans never 
 shall he slaves! to church, state, labor, or to any- 
 one or anything! Just now it is unionized labor's 
 turn to see it, to the extent of giving a good day's 
 work with snap and vigor for a good day's pay — 
 which they are not doing, but are slacking. 
 
 Some capitalists want theirs and a big 
 slice, and don't give a hoot what happens to the 
 chap below the line. Thank goodness! this class 
 is gradually dying out or giving way and will 
 soon be gone ; the good time is coming when every 
 man willing to give real honest work or service 
 
208 DECTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 for real pay will never want, and that time won't 
 be long in coming. 
 
 Unionism has largely spoiled men from 
 giving a good day's work for a good day's pay, 
 in Britain especially, and in America and Canada 
 wherever they can enforce arbitrary autocratic 
 power. ^^Go slow. Bill" is the general attitude. 
 It was so noticeable when I changed from handl- 
 ing Canadians to handling British labor units on 
 roads in France. Labor fails to see that every 
 man that is slacking on his job is putting a tax 
 on everything he makes and, by raising the price, 
 taxing all his fellow laborers. Union labor cannot 
 live to itself alone, though they act as if they 
 thought they could and often act as if they could 
 lift themselves by pulling on their boot straps. 
 Good will and not strife will eventually be the 
 leaven that will leaven the whole lump, from capi- 
 talist to labor with the great millions of people 
 who are between these two warring elements. 
 
 Drifting seems to be my ^*long suit" as I 
 seem to have again left the rails. 
 
 Perhaps you will wonder why early in 1917 
 I told my Jew friend, Major Blank, that we would 
 take the Holy Land and hand it over to his 
 hooked-nosed friends for a national home. I was 
 banking on Kev. Wild, Dr. Poole and state- 
 ments made in the early seventies and eighties 
 by many other authors on this point about the 
 prophecies concerning these latter days. Ezekiel, 
 who prophecied from 628 to 570 B.C., predicted: 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 200 
 
 ^^I [God] will lay my vengeance upon Edom 
 by the hand of my people Israel.'' (Ezek. 25 :14.) 
 Knowing that we Anglo-Saxon Celts were Israel I 
 knew our job was to take Jerusalem and the Holy 
 Land from Turkey and make a place for the Tribe 
 of Judah to gather together representatively. 
 Esau is Edom, Mount Seir, Idumea, a Gentile 
 nation, and Esau is also Turkey, the Ottoman 
 nation who was to be in possession of the holy 
 places when Joseph-Israel won that land back 
 from the Gentiles, as they did in 1917, just in the 
 1295 solar years or 1335 lunar years (dating from 
 the Hegira A.D. 622) foretold by Daniel. 
 
 The prophecies of Leviticus 26 were also 
 fulfilled in the return of the Jews to Palestine 
 after the land had been laid waste for a period of 
 seven times (a time in the Bible being 360 years), 
 because Daniel, with the other princes, was car- 
 ried to Babylon in B.C. 603 and Jerusalem was 
 delivered in 1917, just 2520 years later to the 
 year. 
 
 Esau and Jacob were twin sons born 1836 
 B.C. of Isaac by Kebekah. See Genesis 25 : 23 : 
 
 "And the Lord said unto her, Two nations are 
 in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be 
 separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall 
 be stronger than the other people ; and the elder shall 
 serve the younger/' 
 
 Esau was a red man and his offspring, the 
 Turks of to-day, have this same characteristic as 
 
210 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 a nation. To-day the elder, Esan, is serving the 
 younger, Jacob. It was promised of Jacob 's sons 
 **In Isaac shall thy seed be called,'' and they 
 started out calling themselves Isaac-sons. In 
 their travels, as the Hebrew had no vowels, the 
 **I'' was dropped, and on old monuments in the 
 Crimea these Israelites wrote it **Saac-sons'' or 
 **Saac-suns'' and over thirty other ways, each 
 having the same pronounciation. To-day the word 
 pronounced the same is written in English Saxons, 
 
 30. "And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray 
 thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint; 
 therefore was his name called Edom. 
 
 33. ^^And he [Esau] sold his birthright unto 
 Jacob. 
 
 37. "And Isaac answered and said unto Esau, 
 Behold, I have made him [Jacob] thy lord, and all 
 his brethren have I given to him for servants; and 
 with corn and wine have I sustained him: and what 
 shall I do now unto thee, my son? 
 
 39. "And Isaac his father answered and said unto 
 him [Esau], Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness 
 of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above ; 
 
 40. "And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt 
 serve thy brother [Jacob] ; and it shall come to pass 
 when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt 
 break his [Jacob's] yoke from off thy neck." (Gen. 
 25:30, 33; 27: 37, 39, 40.) 
 
 Esau hated Jacob with a hatred that has 
 lasted down through the ages for Jacob's seed, 
 Isaac-sons, Saac-sons, Saxons. 
 
DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 211 
 
 ^*By the sword shalt thou live'' has been 
 literally true of the Turks or Ottomans who 
 have crowned their Sultans, not with a crown, 
 but with a sword. But the Master said, *^A11 
 they that take the sword shall perish with the 
 sword''; and this is still coming true. They have 
 had the fatness of the earth for a dwelling place, 
 the choicest land on earth in their possession and 
 they have made it a desolation from one end to 
 the other. 
 
 **And thou shalt serve thy brother." That 
 they did under David and Solomon, and for cen- 
 turies they held the balance of power as the Sick 
 Man of Europe in the middle East, keeping out 
 Eussia, and others, thus serving their brother 
 Jacob (Brith-ish) in a way they did not under- 
 stand until the fullness of the Grentiles came in 
 and General Allenby took over the Holy Land 
 section of Edom or Turkey. 
 
 ^*And it shall come to pass when thou shalt 
 have the dominion [^* Break loose" — K.V.] that 
 thou shalt break his yoke from oif thy neck." 
 Here are some facts about the descendants of 
 Esau: 
 
 1. In Egypt, the Pharoah of the oppres- 
 sion was a son of Esau in the fourth generation — 
 Eliphaz, Amalek, Thurdan, Kameses. He certain- 
 ly tried to put the yoke on the neck of Jacob's 
 seed when it was oif his own. 
 
212 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 2. The Amalekites who attacked Israel 
 after their coming out of Egypt were of Esau 
 origin by Amalek, the son of Eliphaz, oldest son 
 of Esau and his concubine, Timna. (Gen. 36 : 12.) 
 
 3. Haman was of an Amalekitish and Esau 
 descent. He tried to destroy all the Jews and 
 Benjamites, for Queen Esther and Mordecai were 
 both of the tribe of Benjamin, but he was hanged 
 on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai. 
 
 4. Herod the Great was an Idumean, and 
 as King of the Jews when the Eomans had do- 
 minion over Judah sought the young child Jesus 
 to slay him who was the hope and Savior of Israel. 
 
 5. In 1916 Edom, the Ottoman nation, had 
 been in possession of the Holy Land for centuries 
 ■ — ^but where would they have been had their twin 
 brother Jacob not fought for them against Eussia 
 in 1854?* 
 
 Edom, O'Theman, or Ottoman has had 
 dominion and lost it and now again Jacob's yoke 
 in the shape of a mandate is on those of them who 
 occupy the Holy Land because the time has come 
 when no nation can live by the sword as Turkey 
 has for centuries past in a Christian land. 
 
 "Thus dwelt Esau in Mount Seir : Esau is Edom. 
 And these are the generations of Esau the father of 
 the Edomites in Mount Sier." (Gen, 36: 8, 9.) 
 
 *History fulfilling Prophecy, by Wm. Reeve. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 213 
 
 Esau, as we said before, is also Idumea. 
 Idumea is the Greek form of the name Edom or 
 Mount Seir (rugged) whose original inhabitants 
 were probably for two reasons called Horites — 
 because Hori was the grandson of Seir, and be- 
 cause that name Hori was descriptive of their 
 name as troglodites or dwellers in caves.* Just 
 remember these cave-dwelling habits on the cliffs 
 of the Dardanelles when we come to look over 
 Obadiah's prophecies concerning Turkey. 
 
 You will note in the second chapter of Deu- 
 teronomy that the Almighty commanded Israel 
 not to molest their brethren of Esau and Mount 
 Seir; they were to pay for any food and drink 
 which they required as they passed through the 
 land in those early days of Israel's wanderings. 
 
 Teman, you will remember, is an Edomite, 
 being a son of Eliphaz, son of Esau. A writer in 
 the Covenant People for July, 1913, says : 
 
 "The Edomite family name Teman in Hebrew 
 is Th'man and linguistically identical with Theman, 
 Althman, Othman, Osman, or Ottoman. Osman, Otto- 
 man, or Othman is an Edomite family name. The 
 historian Gibbon in his 47th chapter gives the original 
 form of the name of O'thman, the son of Ertogrul as 
 Thaman ; now Teman, or more strictly Theman, was a 
 grandson of Esau. (Gen. 36:11.). And another of 
 the same name (36:42) was one of the dukes of 
 Edom and six times over in the Prophets the name is 
 used for a prominent or leading section of the Edomite 
 race. 
 
 *Young's Analytical Concordance 
 
214 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 "In the very place (Obadiah) in which the de- 
 struction of the destroyers of Israel's land is detailed, 
 it is written 'Thy mighty men, Teman shall be dis- 
 mayed/ Ottoman is, therefore, the Scriptural desig- 
 nation of the House of Edom in itc dominance over 
 Palestine and is a striking testimony of the truth of 
 Holy writ/' 
 
 Having shown that Teman, Ottoman, and 
 Esau are all Edomite or Edom, as is Mount Seir 
 and Idumea, we can now turn to Obadiah and see 
 what that prophet, w^ho died in 586 B.C. foretold 
 and if it has come to pass. 
 
 Ferrar Fenton's Translation into modern 
 English is as follows: 
 
 "Thus says the Mighty Lord about Edom ; — 
 
 We have heard a command from the Lord about Edom 
 
 And a message is sent to the Nations ; — 
 
 ^Arise ! and go up to the war against Her !' 
 
 "Look ! I will make you be small among Nations ! 
 
 And you shall be greatly despised ! — 
 
 Your bold heart deceived you, who dwell on high 
 
 cliffs — 
 Whose home is on high, and Who says to his heart, — 
 
 *Who can drag me to earth f " 
 
 (Obadiah 1:1-3.). 
 
 Now just carry your mind back to the 
 early days of the late war. Britain and France 
 were doing their best to keep Turkey away from 
 her natural ally, of the glittering armour, the 
 great sword rattler of Europe, but those minions 
 of the nether regions, Enver Pasha and Talaat 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 215 
 
 Bey (since gone to his reward!), with the help of 
 the Goben and Breslau switched Turkey to Ger- 
 many. 
 
 Little did they think then or now that they 
 were but the tools carrying out the Almighty's 
 plan for taking the Holy Land from the Otto- 
 mans. You may remember how, after much inde-, 
 cision or dilatoriness and delay, Britain decided 
 to send dreadnoughts to bombard these Edomites 
 out of their high cliff forts cut in rock along the 
 cliffs of the Dardanelles and so secure the last 
 gate of their enemies, Constantinople, and also 
 how we had to retire beaten in the task. Had 
 Britain's politicians been students of prophecy 
 and aware that Britain was Israel as was that 
 grand old fighting admiral. Sir John Fisher, they 
 would not have insisted on such a scheme, because 
 the better plan of campaign laid down in the Bible 
 was later practically [and probably unknowingly] 
 followed by General AUenby with such good re- 
 sults by land. 
 
 Well, was a message sent to the nations to 
 arise and make war against Edom or Turkey, as 
 specified in verse 1? And has Edom or Turkey 
 been made small among nations in comparison 
 with what she was at the height of her dominion ? 
 She will be smaller yet ! 
 
 The Sultan was the big man among Mo- 
 hammedan heathendom. But he lost Mecca, 
 Jerusalem, Constantinople and other sacred cities 
 
216 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 and immense territories and to-day he is ** small 
 potatoes'* and despised among the aforemen- 
 tioned heathen as predicted in verse 2. 
 How about verse 3 ? 
 
 "Your bold heart deceived you [Edom], who dwell on 
 high cliffs [along the Dardenelles] , — 
 
 Whose home is on high, and Who says to his heart, — 
 ^Who can drag me to earth f " 
 
 After the retirement of our largest dreadnought 
 can you not see the Turks puffing up their chests 
 boastfully saying, ^*We have defeated the largest 
 ships and the biggest guns in the world, who can 
 bring us downf 
 
 Well, the inspired prophet, Obadiah, 2,500 
 years ago, said what would happen and declared 
 in no uncertain accents in verse 4 : 
 
 " 'If with Eagles you soar, if you nest among stars, — 
 I will drag down from there,^ says the Lord." 
 
 And down they came and also their fortifications 
 along the Dardanelles and at Gallipoli. 
 
 Verse 7, addressed to Edom or Esau, says 
 (Ferrar Fenton's translation) : 
 
 " 'Those men, your allies, to your borders have driven ; 
 They deceived you! Your friends [they] have over- 
 whelmed ! 
 Spread a net on your bread that you did not per- 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 217 
 
 The Kevised Version puts this verse 7 as 
 follows : 
 
 "All the men of thy confederacy have brought 
 thee on thy way, even to the border: the men that 
 were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and pre- 
 vailed against thee; they that eat thy bread lay a 
 snare [marg., "wound"] under thee: there is none 
 understanding in him/' 
 
 Looking back on what the German friends 
 of Turkey did to her, could you possibly have a 
 more vivid and true description of how they mis- 
 led poor deceived Turkey, whose bread they were 
 eating and whom they prevailed against and un- 
 der whom they laid a serious wound that Turkey 
 could not possibly get away from and which fin- 
 ally caused her downfall. They did bring her 
 even to the border of Europe and over the border 
 of the Promised Land past the Euphrates, and to 
 the border of destruction. 
 
 8. "Shall I not in that day, saith the Lord, even 
 destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding 
 out of the mount [or high places] of Esau." 
 
 The wise men in Turkey who did not agree 
 to fight against their old-time friends and blood 
 relations, Jacob (Britain), were removed from 
 Turkey's government, and wisdom and under- 
 standing have been destroyed out of the high 
 places of Esau — from among Enver Pasha and 
 his ruling circle, and their German masters. Wis- 
 
218 DESTINY OF BEITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 dom gave place to German hatred with its abso- 
 lute lack of understanding of peoples and nations 
 other than those made in the German mould. 
 Then there follows in Obadiah a recital of what 
 the Ottomans had done to their brother Jacob 
 and the result to them of their actions. 
 
 9. "And thy mighty men, Teman [now Otto- 
 man] , shall be dismayed, to the end that every one of 
 the mount of Esau may he cut off by slaughter. 
 
 10. "For thy violence against thy brother Jacob, 
 shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for 
 ever. 
 
 11. "In the day that thou stoodest'on the other 
 side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive 
 his [Jacob's] forces, and foreigners entered into his 
 gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou [0 
 Teman] wast as one of them. 
 
 12. "But thou shouldest not have looked on, the 
 day of thy brother [Jacob] in the day that he be- 
 came a stranger ; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced 
 over the children of Judah in the day of their de- 
 struction; neither shouldst thou have spoken proudly 
 in the day of distress. 
 
 13. "Thou shouldest not have entered into the 
 gate of my people in the day of their calamity: yea, 
 thou shouldest not have looked on their affliction in 
 the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their 
 substance in the day of their calamity ; 
 
 14. "Neither shouldest thou have stood in the 
 crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; 
 neither shouldest thou have delivered up those of his 
 that did remain in the day of distress." 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 219 
 
 All these things the sons of Esau have done 
 unto their twin brother Jacob from the time 
 Nebuchadnezzar destroyed Jerusalem to Herod 
 the Great and down through the ages. At the 
 sacking of Jerusalem by the Komans they took 
 part in the most hideous atrocities against their 
 own flesh and blood, since which time the mills of 
 God have surely been grinding out the Almighty's 
 judgment as foretold in the following verses of 
 Obadiah's single chapter devoted to Turkey's 
 downfall, and confirmed by Isaiah 31 and Jere- 
 miah 49. 
 
 If you read of the sacking of Jerusalem, 
 you will have some idea what Jacob 's children had 
 to suffer at Esau's hands. The Armenians in our 
 day have met with a similar fate by Talaat Bey, 
 the Armenian murderer who ordered that they be 
 robbed of their substance and be cut off at the 
 crossways and murdered. But the time of judg- 
 ment has arrived — the judgment which the mills 
 of the Kuler of the Universe has been grinding 
 out for the O'Themans since then. 
 
 15. "For the day of the Lord is near upon all 
 the heathen: as thou [O'Teman] hast done, it shall be 
 done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine 
 own head." 
 
 Ferrar Fenton's translation puts it: 
 
 But the day of the Lord will come on every Nation 
 [not Turkey alone] ; — 
 
220 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 And as you have done, He will do to yourselves ; — 
 Your crime will return on your head ! 
 
 17. "But upon mount Zion [the hill of Jerusalem] 
 shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and 
 the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions/' 
 
 Now what are the facts that will enable us 
 to judge if these predictions were just so much 
 east wind or if they were based on an understand- 
 ing of divine law? Has Turkey's crime turned 
 on her own head? Has the day of the Lord, the 
 day of right and justice as opposed to might, come 
 upon nations? Has there been deliverance upon 
 Mount Zion or Jerusalem? Has the House of 
 Jacob possessed their possessions? 
 
 To me all these questions are to-day an- 
 sw^ered in the affirmative and that without any 
 spiritualizing of God's real promises to Israel, 
 right here on earth. This spiritualizing our 
 blind shepherds find so necessary to use to explain 
 Bible prophecies, because, when they get you sky- 
 piloting and have your feet and your reason off 
 the solid ground and they state that this means 
 that, and that means something else ^*in the spir- 
 itual sense'' and in the world to come, you cannot 
 usually argue back, because you don't know, 
 neither do they; they are only guessing, and 
 guessing wrong at that and telling you only what 
 they have been taught, like the doctors who used 
 leaches a hundred years ago and bled everyone — 
 they were wrong, but they knew only what they 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 221 
 
 had been taught. IVe never yet heard a church- 
 man, high or low, who could explain God's prom- 
 ises to Israel intellingently, save by this sane and 
 logical identity method. They can all see the 
 propehcies about Judah and the Jews coming 
 true to the letter through real people, some fif- 
 teen million Jews ; but when you ask them, what 
 about the kingdom, Israel, who were ten times as 
 many, where they are, they hum and haw and say, 
 ** Israel is God's church!'' Has God's church 
 b^en the Creator 's battle-axe and weapons of war 
 with which he was to smash nations? If so, what 
 nations has the church smashed! Does God's 
 church possess the **gate of his enemies'?" If so, 
 what gate, what enemy and where? Has God's 
 church become a nation, a great nation, and a 
 company of nations ? Not on your life ! And the 
 church never will and never can fulfil those grand 
 prophecies foretold of national Israel, in the isles 
 of the sea. The church sees the Cross of Christ 
 
 but fails to see that He left His Kingdom on earth 
 
 to His ten servants, the Ten Tribes of Israel, my 
 
 chosen. My dispersed. My outcasts. My sheep. My 
 
 witnesses. Mine elect. My nation. My servants and 
 
 My people Israel who were to '' occupy' ' until He 
 
 comes as foretold by Jesus in Luke 19 : 11-13. 
 
 In my humble opinion, the allwise Creator 
 caused the Bible to be written for the common 
 
222 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 ordinary everyday variety of men and women 
 whom Abraham Lincoln said God must have loved 
 because he made so many of them — just plain 
 folks. We, not particularly the parsons or Uni- 
 versity professors, are bidden to search the Scrip- 
 tures and to read God's Word. Surely then, that 
 Word that we are bidden to search is understand- 
 able by the ordinary man — we, us and company — 
 else why are we bidden to read it ? Abraham Lin- 
 coln when he was without education read it by the 
 light of a pine knot and absorbed into his very 
 soul the wisdom contained in its pages. 
 
 In one of the messes I was in, in 1917, we 
 were blessed with three Oxford graduates, two 
 of them parsons, one a don ; and believe me, the 
 higher critics had nothing that Oxford in their 
 day had not swallowed hook, line and sinker! 
 They were chuck full of it, and yet, they used to 
 lament the condition of the church — as if you 
 could grow oaks from thistle seed ! I often won- 
 dered how they expected to inspire Tommy with 
 faith in the Bible that they were in doubt about 
 themselves. They lacked what they tried to pass 
 on to the army, faith. 
 
 I used to console myself with the fa^ct that 
 when the Master was on earth, there must have 
 been the Oxford professors of that day, though I 
 failed to remember his having picked any of them 
 to carry his Gospel to the people and to be the 
 light that was to lighten the world. Eather he 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 223 
 
 chose fishermen, and carpenters and tax collectors 
 to be his fishers of men. It is possible, and I 
 think most probable, if my mess mates were fair 
 samples, that when He comes again to His King- 
 dom right on this earth, this time to rule, and 
 when His feet in that day stand on the Mount of 
 Olives and it cannot be so very many years ere 
 He does this — for He is coming in just the same 
 manner that he went, — it is possible that Oxford 
 and many seats of so-called higher education will 
 have much to answer and some of them will be 
 lucky if they don't get a goat tag tied on them 
 because so many of our students when they go 
 through our Universities have lost their early 
 belief in our Bible being inspired by the Creator 
 and Euler of His Universe. 
 
 I remember once being asked by one of 
 these Oxford chaps if I really believed that Christ 
 was coming back to this earth. I said, 
 
 **Well, what does the Bible say? *Ye men 
 of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? 
 this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into 
 heaven shall so come in like manner as ye have 
 seen him go into heaven.' (Acts 1:11.) Sure, He 
 is coming back to this earth and He is coming back 
 this time to rule His Kingdom of Israel and we 
 Anglo-Saxons are Israel," I said. 
 
 The glance of surprise mixed with pity 
 that he bestowed on me expressed his feelings 
 fully; a man who thought as I did was too simple 
 
224 DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 for this enlightened age. They (the Oxford 
 bunch) know so much better than that now, that 
 it was not worth while discussing further the mat- 
 ter with a chap like myself. Higher education 
 should enable men to see God's goodness to all 
 those who ask for His guidance and help, but 
 many students going to our seats of higher edu- 
 cation lose much of the faith they had, after a few 
 years there. 
 
 Well, I'm thankful I never knew enough 
 for the higher critics to get **my goaf and I still 
 retain my absolute belief in the Bible and the 
 more sure word of prophecy contained therein, 
 because anyone can see prophecy becoming his- 
 tory year after year just as foretold. 
 
 Well, again I am drifting away from my 
 theme and in danger of getting **het up.'' Let's 
 go back to Obadiah! 
 
 **The house of Jacob shall possess their 
 possessions," The whole of the Promised Land 
 from the Nile to the great river Euphrates, the 
 territory promised to Abraham, has now floating 
 over it the ensign of Jacob,* the Union Jack. This 
 land promised to Israel is possessed by Britain. 
 Are we then not Israel? Judah (the Jew) is 
 joined to us under King George V. of Brith-ain 
 (Covenant Land) — and they shall be no more two 
 people. 
 
 *or St. James. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 225 
 
 18. ''And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and 
 the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for 
 stubble/' 
 
 Stubble is straw that has had the grain and 
 top cut off. It still stands up, and Ephraim, 
 Joseph, is the flame to consume it as they did after 
 the Turk was chased out of Jerusalem. Ephraim, 
 Britain, was like a flame among the stubble, burn- 
 ing them up all along the line until the Turks quit 
 fighting and got an armistice ; but the end of Tur- 
 key is not yet. She will be finished with many 
 others at Armageddon. 
 
 Did it ever strike you as strange that 
 neither France, Italy, or Belgium sent troops to 
 help in the campaign in the Holy Land? It was 
 left to the British alone, as it was in 1882, when 
 they took the Egypt end of their possessions, to 
 possess their (Jacob's) possessions — though 
 America should have and will yet come in on it 
 as she did in 1882. 
 
 The Ephraimites always had trouble with 
 
 their H's. See Judges 12: 5 and 6 where it cost 
 them the lives of forty-two thousand because of 
 this peculiarity. Not being able to pronounce 
 ** Shibboleth," they all said Sibboleth and it is a 
 strange thing that down through the ages that 
 characteristic has stuck to the sons of Ephraim. 
 The cockney of London will say ^^horanges'' and 
 
226 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 ** 'orses*' to this day and it was the cockneys of 
 London who took Jerusalem and who held it, and 
 they are Ephraim, the English, who were to be 
 the head of the tribes, this stubborn stiff-necked 
 people with the bull's head emblem under which 
 they marched when Moses brought them out of 
 Egypt, and now known as Brother John of the 
 Isles. 
 
 Even the "Word of God must be confirmed 
 by two witnesses. Obadiah mentioned that when 
 Esau should have dominion, he would break his 
 brother Jacob's yoke from off his neck and he 
 did. Jeremiah 49 :2 predicts : * ' Then shall Israel 
 be heir unto them that were his heirs, saith the 
 Lord.'' Read that whole chapter through as it 
 confirms Obadiah, they being contemporaries. 
 Well, Israel to-day is heir to what the Ottomans 
 had in the Holy Land. 
 
 Ferrar Fenton translates Jeremiah 49: 
 19-22 as follows : 
 
 "See he was like a lion coming up from the swell- 
 ing of Jordan to the permanent meadows: ^I will be 
 sly with them/ he said, 'I will assail from behind them, 
 — what hero can defend them ? f (5r who is equal to me, 
 and who expects me? and what S'hepherd can stand 
 before mef 
 
 "Therefore hear the intent of the Ever-living, 
 which He intends against Edom, and the plans He has 
 planned against the people of Theman, if they do not 
 withdraw the young of the flock; if they do not put 
 them in the Fold, 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 227 
 
 "The earth shall shake at the sound of her fall ;— 
 the voice of his shriek to the Sea of Weeds ! 
 
 "Look! He comes like an eagle, and flies! and 
 spreads his wings over Bozrah, — and the heart of the 
 heroes of Edom in that day will be like the heart of a 
 woman in terror \" 
 
 Well, Jeremiah wrote that description of 
 how Israel was to take this land before 597 B.C., 
 and strange as it may seem, the troops of the old 
 British lion were sly in exactly the manner pre- 
 dicted. They broke through and assailed the 
 Turks from behind and took the heart out of the 
 sons of Esau. In Jeremiah's day there were no 
 aeroplanes, yet with the vision of the prophet and 
 seer, he looks forward 2,500 years and says: **He 
 shall come up and fly as the eagle, and spread his 
 wings over Bozrah''; and our fighting units with 
 their flying squadron attachments did just that 
 and uncovered the hidden places of Esau. 
 
 And yet unwise people pooh-pooh Bible pro- 
 phecy ! 
 
 You will remember that Turkey at Ger- 
 many's staff suggestion, started a campaign for 
 the taking of Egypt and of the Suez Canal from 
 Britain. Look up Isaiah 31 for a description of 
 that campaign. 
 
 1. "Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help ; 
 and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they 
 are many; and in horsemen, because they are very 
 strong ; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, 
 neither seek the Lord ! 
 
228 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 2. "Yet He also is wise, and will bring evil, and 
 will not call back His words : but will arise against the 
 house of the evildoers, and against the help of them 
 that work iniquity/' 
 
 Well, the workers of iniquity and their 
 helpers who banked on their numbers and 
 strength, were the recipients of woe ere they got 
 back from that good sized expedition. 
 
 3. "Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; 
 and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the Lord 
 shall stretch out His hand, both he that helpeth shall 
 fall, and he that is helpen shall fall down, and they 
 all shall fall together. 
 
 The Egyptians who were stirred up into 
 revolting and the Germans and Ottomans who 
 went down to help them all fell together in that 
 particular **show.'' 
 
 4. "For thus hath the Lord spoken unto me. Like 
 as the lion [the old British Lion] and the young lion, 
 [Australia, New Zealand, etc.] roaring on his prey, 
 when a multitude of shepherds [leaders or generals] 
 is called forth against him, he [the lion] will not be 
 afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise 
 of them : so shall the Lord of hosts come down to fight 
 for mount Zion and for the hill thereof. 
 
 5. "As birds flying, so will the Lord of hosts de- 
 fend Jerusalem ; defending also he will deliver it ; and 
 passing over he will preserve it." 
 
 Well, reader, what is the answer to verse 
 four? 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 229 
 
 Like as a lion, the old British Lion and the 
 young lions which came from Australia, New Zea- 
 land, etc., to help the old lion redeem Jerusalem, 
 were not afraid of the multitude of shepherds or 
 generals opposed to them; but like lions all, they 
 went for the Turks and their Hun masters, and 
 they certainly put the fear of God into their 
 hearts after their first encounters. How Jersa- 
 lem Was Won, written by W. T. Massey, who was 
 with Allenby's army, gives a splendid account of 
 it. So did the Lord of Hosts **come down to fight 
 for Mount Zion and for the hill thereof. ' ' 
 
 I cannot do better than quote from the 
 Covenant People, November, 1920, issue, extracts 
 from a lecture by the Kev. Commander L. Q. A. 
 Roberts, E.N. 
 
 "The Word of God is true ! 1917 is exactly seven 
 times [the times the prophet foretold]' from the 
 Babylonian captivity of Judah, and in that year the 
 Hol}^ City was delivered. Obadiah gives yon exactly 
 the strategical method in which their deliverance took 
 place. Isaiah 31:5 tells you exactly how God de- 
 livered it 'As birds flying, so will the Lord of Hosts 
 defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver it; 
 and passing over he will preserve it. 
 
 'When General Allenby came over the Mount 
 Gerizim — the Mount of Blessing — the Turks were 
 fleeing over Mount Ebal — the Mount of Cursing. 
 
 "When Allenby came to Jerusalem the Turks 
 were convinced that the Holy City never could be taken 
 because it had been predicted that, unless the waters 
 
230 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 of the Nile flowed into Palestine, the Turks would 
 hold Jerusalem. What occurred? When crossing the 
 desert our gallant engineers laid a water-line — a pipe- 
 line from the Nile — right across the desert, and near 
 Jerusalem, they connected it through into the Holy 
 City. When the Turks saw the fulfilment of their own 
 prophecy — the waters of the Nile mingling with the 
 waters around them — they knew all was lost. 
 
 "The Arabs had also a prophecy. They said that 
 Jerusalem would one day be delivered by the hand of 
 a Prophet of God. General Allenby's name, in Arabic, 
 is "Allah-Nebi,' which means a 'Prophet of God.' These 
 two things coinciding the Turks were quite nonplussed. 
 
 "Remember how Jerusalem was taken. General 
 Allenby did not want to fire a shot at the sacred city. 
 He telegraphed home to the Premier to know what he 
 should do. Bombard Jerusalem or not ? The Premier's 
 reply was that he must be left to do as he thought 
 right. That did not satisfy Allenby. He telegraphed 
 home to the King and the King told him to make it a 
 matter of prayer. Well, they had a service; the 
 whole of the officers went to prayer. As they were 
 rising from their knees a herald from Jerusalem ar- 
 rived with a flag of truce, and the Governor of 
 Jerusalem surrendered to the British forces. 
 
 " 'Before they call I will answer, and while they 
 are yet speaking I will hear.' 'Call upon me in the day 
 of trouble and I will deliver thee and thou shalt 
 glorify me.' What was the result? Instead of going 
 into Jerusalem like that proud Kaiser, General Allen- 
 by went in as if he understood it was a Holy Mission, 
 on his feet in humble submission. 
 
 "It was not he or the British army, but the act 
 of God; and Allenby went in, not for the conquest of 
 Jerusalem, but for its deliverance. 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 231 
 
 "Now the Turks were very sorry they had left 
 and thought they would come baok. They placed their 
 guns and prepared to bomhard. Suddenly the areo- 
 planes appeared, and then the Turks finally retreated. 
 Not a shell was fired against the sacred city. 
 
 We have God's two witnesses, the Bible 
 and the Pyramid and both were correct. We 
 have also God's two national witnesses who bear 
 the Union Jack, the older glory, and the other 
 *^01d Glory," the Stars and Stripes; and the na- 
 tions they represent will continue to be used for 
 God's glory throughout the world. 
 
 W. T. Massey writes: 
 
 "The troops of the Turks and Germans who were 
 entrenched on the hills beyond Jerusalem, when pre- 
 paring to attack it were told that when Jerusalem 
 was recaptured they were all going to have a free day 
 to do as they liked in the City and so we saved Jerus- 
 alem from being pillaged." 
 
 On December 27th the Turks delivered 
 thirteen attacks towards the city for the purpose 
 of capturing it ; but the British gained seven miles 
 in these attacks, and the end of the day found 
 Jerusalem defended by four strong lines so they 
 made true the words of the ** Unseen Strategist 
 of the Universe ' ' — * * Defending also he will deliver 
 it ; and passing over he will preserve it. " 
 
232 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 In the face of this absolute fulfilling of 
 
 prophecy how do men doubt the reality of God's 
 
 promises to His servant, Israel, who was to win 
 
 the Holy Land and who did win it in the year and 
 
 in the manner predicted in those prophetic words 
 
 describing how the Lord would defend and deliver 
 
 Jerusalem, the city of which it is written in 2 
 
 Kings 21 : 4: **In Jerusalem will I put my name/' 
 
 These words were uttered over 2,520 years ago 
 and in 1917 they came true, seven ^Himes'' from 
 the destruction of Jerusalem and the taking of 
 Judah captive. 
 
 What does this mean to you? Since these 
 material, earthly, and national promises dated 
 for 1917 and all previous dates have been fulfilled, 
 what about those for 1921, 1922, and 1923, and so 
 on to 1936 when Armageddon is to be finished? 
 You can depend upon it that every divinely in- 
 spired prophecy from 1917 to 1936 will come true 
 and at the allotted time. * ' The arm of the Creator 
 is not shortened.'' ^ ^Behold, he that keepeth 
 Israel [and we are Israel] shall neither slumber 
 nor sleep." 
 
 George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and 
 others of your wisest leaders have told you in 
 their national proclamations what God has done 
 for America, and you let it slide like water off a 
 duck's back. How much are you doing towards 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 233 
 
 carrying on your share of the Creator *s work? 
 You have a large share to carry on, for you are a 
 large part of His executive nation and company 
 of nations and there are punishments which you 
 or your children will receive just as surely as the 
 sun rises if your share of the job is not performed. 
 
 Good thoughts that are not transferred in- 
 to good actions are not worth two hoots in the hot 
 place. If the foregoing statements) are facts, 
 then you personally have a job, a divine job, that 
 you cannot pass over to your parson ^s shoulders. 
 He is already overstocked with troubles and 
 doubts of his own just now, since the German 
 higher critics are in the discard. 
 
 Armageddon will be upon us about eleven 
 j'-ears from the time we took Jerusalem. We will 
 need in that day a United Empire and a United 
 States free from hyphenates, though there are 
 world-wide forces to-day at work internally and 
 externally trying to disrupt both these mighty 
 nations who are destined to carry **good will'' to 
 the whole world. They were both given the di- 
 vine commission to **push the people together to 
 the ends of the earth" and they have been carry- 
 ing it out and will continue to do so, imperfectly 
 of course, but still heading in the right direction. 
 
 The late Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, that 
 outstanding American and apostle of good will, 
 whose autographed photograph I am proud to 
 look at hanging on my wall, believed that the man 
 
234 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 who was opposed to cultivating the warmest 
 friendship between the Anglo-Saxon nations was 
 no friend of the world. 
 
 Let us carry on the divine command with 
 truth, justice and good will to all men, pushing 
 peoples together, first among the English-speak- 
 ing peoples and continuing until the whole world 
 is one in aim. 
 
 There are papers and institutions in all 
 countries devoted to stirring up trouble and strife 
 between us. Knowing that their aim is to breed 
 '^contention,'' let us not reply in kind, and when 
 you see quoted in a paper a strife-breeding para- 
 graph against your nation, just remember the 
 class of people who are interested in propagating 
 that strife and smile and remember that One 
 greater than all has His hand on the helm, even 
 if you and I do not and cannot understand the why 
 and the wherefore of all *Hhe mystery of God.'' 
 
 How many men do you suppose there are 
 in the steel business who understand what is go- 
 ing on in the mind of that master of steel, Charles 
 M. Schwab — even men helping him to run his big 
 plants? Then what about His workmen, how can 
 they understand the Master Mind? Should we, 
 then, be surprised that so few know and under- 
 stand the Creator's plan? They ask why He per- 
 mits wars, famine, pestilence, and social disturb- 
 ances, forgetting that the prophets saw and fore- 
 told that just these things must come to pass as 
 
DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 235 
 
 the result of the nations not carrying out His 
 laws which have never been abrogated, as were the 
 ecclesiastical laws, but which were confirmed by 
 Christ when he was on earth and they have been 
 waiting ever since for our Israel nations to accept. 
 
 The world has got to reap what the world 
 sows; they can no more duck it than they can 
 stop the sun from shining. The hatred of Prus- 
 sian Germany against God's chosen people, 
 Israel (The Anglo-Saxon-Celts) dates from the 
 time they took Hebrew Israel captive 720 years 
 before Christ, so 'tis fairly well ingrained. Kussia 
 has been taught for years by those apostles of 
 light and Soviet learning — Lenine and Trotsky 
 (organized in New York and sent through Ger- 
 many) — to hate the Covenant men, the Brith-ish 
 (and Americans are as much Brith-ish as are 
 Canadians), with a hatred that will not die, but 
 will continue until they are almost wiped out at 
 Armageddon ; but there will be enough left to take 
 the news back to their people, that God not only 
 rules in heaven, but also on earth as in heaven 
 and that the Christ has come again to rule. 
 
 Germany was pretty busy through all the 
 underground and above ground channels before 
 1914, stirring up strife between us all and prepar- 
 ing for ''der Tag/' Prussia, Kussia and other 
 unseen forces to-day are busier than ever before 
 
236 DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 along the same lines in India, China, Persia, Tur- 
 kestan, Egypt and all the uneducated heathen 
 nations. Prussia is prohibited from doing any- 
 thing by the sea because of the navies of Britain, 
 United States and Japan, and so that genial advo- 
 cate of **good will on earth'' (f) Vor. Tirpitz by 
 name, advises the U.S.A. to build a big fleet of 
 dreadnoughts, hoping that some day the Huns 
 may be able to stir up strife between America 
 and Britain and have them destroy each other — 
 when Germany would step into ^^her place in the 
 sun'' that we hear so little about these days. 
 Before your big and growing navy is complete 
 you will be again harboring the German type of 
 embassy with Von Bernsdorf and Von Papen at- 
 tachments for blowing up your munition plants 
 and stirring up Mexico and Japan to attack you. 
 
 The papers last week reported a certain 
 Hugo Stinnes as buying up manufacturing plants 
 in Bussia. Prussia will eventually reorganize 
 Eussia. France will see that they do not manu- 
 facture armaments in Germany, but she cannot 
 prevent her from doing so in Eussia and all the 
 Armageddon war material required will be made 
 in Eussia. 
 
 The Bible says the Army of the Chief 
 Prince of Eosh are all to be mounted on horses, 
 and it is interesting to note that in 1901 Eussia 
 had thirty million horses, America about eight 
 million and the rest of the world about eight mil- 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 237 
 
 lion, so the *' Chief Prince of Rosh'' and his mil- 
 lions will not have to hoof it as we did in Belgium 
 along the pave. 
 
 I think the **day of the Lord'' is come 
 upon all nations and the almost unexpected wiping 
 the slate clean of licenses for men to sell fire- 
 water and the prohibiting of its being openly 
 drunk in the United States and Canada is a de- 
 finite mile-post showing how near is the approach 
 of that ** great day/' because ere that day many 
 things that offend have to be put into the discard. 
 
 Still again I Ve drifted from my text. The 
 prophet Isaiah said: 
 
 8. "Then shall the Assyrian [Prussian] fall with 
 the sword, not of a mighty man ; and the sword, not of 
 a mean man, shall devour him : hut he shall flee from 
 the sword, and his young men shall be discomfited. 
 
 9. "And he [the Assyrian] shall pass over to his 
 strong hold for fear, and his princes shall be afraid 
 of the ensign, saith the Lord [what ensign?], whose 
 fire is in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem/' (Isa. 
 31:8, 9.) 
 
 Did these things come true? Did the 
 sword of General AUenby (unlmown as a ^'mighty 
 man," and not a **mean man") devour the Hun 
 and Turkish troops'? and did the Huns pack up 
 and beat it back to Germany, their stronghold 
 for fear, leaving poor Turkey to fight it out alone, 
 which they proceeded to do ? The history of this 
 campaign shows these verses have come true to 
 the letter. 
 
238 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 **And his princes [German or Prussian] 
 shall be afraid of the ensign [that grand old cove- 
 nant banner which was to be set up, the Union 
 Jack], saith the Lord, whose fire is in Zion.'^ 
 **And the house of Jacob,'' said Obadiah, ** shall 
 be a fire" — to burn up Edom, or Turkey, (for he 
 says the house of Esau shall be for stubble) so 
 that they could *^ possess their possessions in 
 Zion,'' and, according to Isaiah, the Lord said 
 this ensign whose fire is in Zion (our Union Jack 
 which Jacob sets up), will make the Assyrian or 
 Prussian princes afraid. Certainly it did put the 
 fear of God in their hearts when they saw it 
 floating over Jerusalem. See Isa. 11 : 12 : 
 
 "And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and 
 shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather to- 
 gether the dispersed of Judah [the Jews] from the 
 four corners of the earth.^' 
 
 It is also predicted in this chapter that the 
 envy of Ephraim (the English) should depart, 
 which will be a fine thing for Britain, when Judah 
 will no longer vex Ephraim, because the ^* inter- 
 national Jew'' has given Brith-ain (Covenant 
 land) many a sore touch and has vexed Hebrew 
 Ephraim (Britain) more ways than you have 
 fingers and toes. When all of Hebrew Judah 
 works together with Hebrew Ephraim instead of 
 partly with the Prussian Assyrian, their ancient 
 enemy, for whom the ^international Jew" worked 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 239 
 
 during the war, a change will come over Jewry 
 the world over. 
 
 I have been interested reading Mr. H. G. 
 Wells ^ articles, entitled The Salvaging of Civiliza- 
 tion, in the Saturday Evening Post. He like many 
 authors. Sir Philip Gibbs included, cannot see 
 daylight out of the present troubled world condi- 
 tions and suggests, as a partial improvement, re- 
 writing the Bible, because he thinks its not up to 
 date. Its too redundant, too much information 
 about minor Kings of Israel and Judea, too much 
 Obed begat Jehu, etc., etc., and it doesn't say any- 
 thing about modern history! Too bad, isn't it, 
 and nothing about elections! 
 
 Well, when Mr. H. G. Wells can write a 
 condensed history of the world covering over 
 4,000 years and can foretell accurately what will 
 happen to nations and people from 2,000 to 3,000 
 years before it does happen; when he can accur- 
 ately foretell the work the American and British 
 sections of Israel will do several thousand years 
 ahead of the time they are to do it, then, and not 
 till then, should he have the temerity to rewrite 
 the Bible. 
 
 Because Mr. Wells does not know or under- 
 stand why the redundancy in Leviticus, why the 
 information about minor Kings of Israel and be- 
 cause his pulse stirs feebly over the date that 
 Nathan begat Zabad, etc., is not a good or a logical 
 reason for cutting them out, but is rather a reasoji 
 
240 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 why Mr. Wells should study why they were put 
 in. 
 
 One might as well argue that because 
 junior students do not understand the books of 
 Euclid when they read them over, therefore, they 
 ought to be scrapped ! 
 
 There are probably a whole lot of things 
 Mr. H. Q. Wells does not understand about other 
 things as well as the Bible, but to my unsophisti- 
 cated mind that does not appear a good reason 
 why they should be scrapped but rather why we 
 should study them and become more proficient 
 in knowledge about them. 
 
 I may be wrong, but it seems to me that 
 before any man, even with the abundant knowl- 
 edge Mr. Wells may possess, decides that he or a 
 committee should meet and trim down our Bible, 
 which has been handed down through the ages, 
 they should first read the last chapter of Eevela- 
 tion and the warning contained in it as translated 
 by Ferrar Fenton which is as follows : 
 
 The Last Solemn Warning. 
 
 "I certify to every one listening to the statements 
 of the prophecy of this book — If any one shall make 
 an addition to it, God shall lay upon him the plagues 
 which are recorded in this book; and if any one shall 
 take away from the statements of the book of this 
 prophecy, God will take away his portion from the tree 
 of life, and from the city of holiness described in this 
 book/' 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 241 
 
 Men who place themselves on a par with 
 the divinely inspired prophets of old who wrote 
 our Bible, which has proven so true down through 
 the ages, and who think it can readily be improved 
 by their scissors, paste pot, and pen have an 
 opinion of their qualifications that, to say the 
 least, would not be condemned for modesty. 
 
 Mr. H. G. Wells agrees that the Bible has 
 held together the fabric of western civilization 
 which could not have come into existence and 
 could not have been sustained without it; but he 
 says it no longer grips the community, so he'd 
 scrap parts of it and chuck in some up-to-date 
 **stuph'' compiled by modest prophets like him- 
 self! 
 
 Is it the fault of the community that the 
 Bible no longer grips it? or is it the fault of the 
 Bible? This same Bible gripped Oliver Cromwell 
 and the men of all ages when the Anglo-Saxons 
 everywhere were at their best. It gripped George 
 Washington, it gripped Abraham Lincoln, and it 
 has gripped every great leader the English-speak- 
 ing world has ever had — this same old-fashioned 
 Bible. The wisest men down through the ages 
 have absorbed wisdom from its pages, and to-day 
 it will grip men who study it with a stronger grip 
 than it has ever had before, because to-day they 
 can see how its prophecies have been fulfilled in 
 the British Empire and the United States of 
 America; and they can see many things that our 
 
242 DESTINY OR BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 forefathers took by faith that have now been made 
 facts of present day history in national Israel — 
 facts which can be seen plainly, though most peo- 
 ple condemn them before they have given ten 
 minutes to study it. 
 
 The power that is to rule the world — ^which 
 Mr. Wells discusses at length — was settled and 
 ordained thousands of years ago and given by the 
 Creator through the mouths of His Hebrew pro- 
 phets to Israel. Mr. Wells writes about the 
 foundations of a world state, and discusses pro 
 and con whether it should have a president or a 
 king. If he knew his Bible better he would know 
 that these questions were decided and settled 
 thousands of years ago. There will be a world 
 state. Its foundations were laid thousands of 
 years ago in Jerusalem. *^In Jerusalem wdll I 
 put my name." (2 Kings 21:4.) A king will rule 
 this world state and Christ will be that king and 
 Britain and America will be large factors in that 
 world state. 
 
 Mr. Wells refers to **that strange book, 
 the Kevelation of St. John the Divine, it comes to 
 an end, it leaves off in the middle of the Roman 
 Imperial and social conflicts, ' ' etc. Now the facts 
 are that it does nothing of the sort. The Book of 
 Revelation is exactly what it professes to be. It 
 reveals or is a Revelation in synopsis form and 
 in Hebrew symbolical langauge of the world his- 
 tory from the time of Christ's appearance on 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 243 
 
 earth, when he was crucified, until he shall come 
 again to His Kingdom on this earth. 
 
 Further, when Mr. Wells understands his 
 Bible better, he will find that there is not a ques- 
 tion before any nation or nations to-day, neither 
 of elections, independence, self determination nor 
 anything else that is not amply provided for in 
 our present Bible without its being added to or 
 scissored away. Bibles are so cheap — yet so 
 little read in the so-called Christan nations of to- 
 day that they fail to grip ; but that is the fault of 
 the people who do not study them. They contain 
 all the wisdom of the ages, and there is no single 
 question that I know of on the political horizon 
 to-day that cannot be solved, properly and perma- 
 nently solved, by applying the laws laid down in 
 its pages. 
 
 President Harding understood this when 
 he was sworn in with his finger on the passage : 
 
 "What doth the Lord require of thee, but to do 
 justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with 
 thy God r 
 
 If people would only get it into their heads that 
 the l^rge world problems are being worked out by 
 Israel according to God's plan and that the Cre- 
 ator has His hand on the helm! The Brith-ish 
 commonwealth, because it is not an Empire, and 
 her offspring would have been on the scrap heap 
 ages ago but for the guiding hand of Providence 
 time after time; and this same unseen hand will 
 
244 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 continue to protect His chosen people, the Anglo- 
 Saxon-Celts, in the future, provided they continue 
 to seek the help of the Almighty God from whom 
 George Washington and Abraham Lincoln sought 
 daily help and received it in full measure. 
 
 When we had our back to the wall in front 
 of Amiens, and every Anglo-Saxon nation the 
 world round sought God's help, we received it in 
 full measure and our arms prospered and we won 
 through. Our Nations' prayers won the day! 
 
 Would to-day that we had a Moses in 
 Israel, who would speak unto the people *'that 
 they go forward," as when the Eed Sea was in 
 front of them and Pharaoh behind, they went for- 
 ward dry shod. Moses adhered to the plans laid 
 down by God. Would that our leaders and your 
 leaders could see God's national plan, adhere to 
 it, and go forward! Then would God prosper 
 your undertakings, as your Great Seal proclaims 
 to the world. 
 
 Gentlemen of the short-haired variety, its 
 up to you for decision! If you will apply the 
 horse sense and reasoning business ability you use 
 daily, to this subject, you can absolutely wipe out 
 sickness, disease and poverty in Anglo-Saxon 
 countries by working to the Creator's plan and 
 you can permanently solve every question now 
 troubling your nation and the whole world. Isn't 
 that a desirable basis for even the highest grade 
 captains of production to aim for ? 
 
IN CONCLUSION 
 
 As one looks over the field of foreign af- 
 fairs in so many nations and sees the vain striv- 
 ings, leading in many cases to headlong national 
 destruction, one wishes at times there was a power 
 that would take some of our Secretaries of State 
 for Foreign Affairs by the hand and instill some 
 of this wisdom and light contained in our Bible 
 into their perhaps not unwilling ears. 
 
 How many Secretaries of State in the 
 world are there, do you suppose, who realize that 
 God the maker and ruler of this Universe laid 
 down his plan in His Book for them to follow? 
 How many men in the Cabinets of the world 
 know there is a plan laid down for them to hew 
 to? Don't all answer at once! Yet . . . 
 
 When the Most High divided unto the Na- 
 tions their inheritance, when He separated the 
 sons of Adam, He set the hounds of the people 
 according to the numbers of the children of Israel. 
 For the Lord's portion is His People; Jacob is the 
 lot {Cord. -mar gin) of his Inheritance. Deut. 32: 
 8-9.

 And he hath made of one blood all nations

246 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 and-hath determined the times before appointed, 
 and the hounds of their habitation. Acts 17 : 26. 
 
 Well it seems to me, that as the Creator has 
 taken the trouble to state that He set the bounds 
 of the nations and hath determined the times be- 
 fore appointed, that the mse thing for our States- 
 men and Eulers, our League of Nations, etc., to do 
 is to try and learn what that plan is : unless like 
 
 Lenine and Trotsky with their New York Jewish 
 backers who think they are w^iser than Jehovah 
 and will make a plan of their own that will assur- 
 edly come to naught carrying with it all the 
 workers of iniquity. 
 
 Yet that is unwittingly what we have for 
 ages been trying to do and what a hideous, ghastly 
 failure man-made laws and plans have made of 
 this glorious old world of ours. 
 
 Do you realize Mister Business Man that 
 the God of Heaven laid down national laws. 
 Statutes and sample judgments for use on this 
 earth for all the Anglo-Saxon-Celtic nations and 
 they were given by his servant Moses to Israel 
 and that they were given to be used for a thousand 
 generations [which time has not yet elapsed] and 
 that they have never been abrogated except when 
 reviewed by Christ who abrogated one statute, 
 strengthened six and then adopted the whole of 
 the law thus making the commandments, statutes 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 247 
 
 and judgments an integral part of His New Testa- 
 ment gospel and of His new covenant. 
 
 I noticed in an American newspaper some 
 months ago that there were 79,422 new laws 
 passed in America 1900-1920. I wrote to your 
 Congressional Library to see if they could give me 
 the numbers of laws, statutes and man-made judg- 
 ments that have been ground out since 1776 and 
 which were still in operation in U.S.A., but he 
 could not say, neither can any one — ^but — there 
 must be millions of them and no one knows or 
 understands them, yet we wonder that people to- 
 day have little or no respect for law. 
 
 How could it be otherwise? How can we 
 have respect for what neither you, we nor anyone 
 else can know is the law? 
 
 T\Tien the United States of America and 
 the other Saxon nations see that they are Israel 
 and adopt Israel's National Constitution, laws 
 and statutes, and follow the sample judgments, 
 all three of which are contained in about 50 pages 
 of the Bible, there will never be any question about 
 the Judges giving right decisions, because anyone 
 can study those pages as well as the Judges, and 
 then you will appoint Judges for and only because 
 of their character and ability to give justice and 
 equity their proper place in the U.S.A. 
 
 Speaking to an old friend connected with 
 the law department of one of our governments 
 some time ago, I asked how many laws we were 
 
248 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 operating under now, how many statutes and how 
 many judge-made decisions that had the force of 
 law did wo have ? 
 
 He could not say (but admitted that law in 
 Canada was in an absolute condition of chaos), 
 neither can anyone else say but there are thou- 
 sands upon thousands of volumes on hand to dig 
 into and try and find some Judge who has ruled 
 on a point that will help your client. How can 
 we have respect for such man-made law and for 
 the men who to-day are working to make black 
 appear white and who to-morrow are working to 
 make it appear green and the next day to make 
 it appear yellow or whatever particular color that 
 day's client pays them for trying to make it! 
 
 Eespect? respect for that type of law is 
 dead, dead as a door nail, never to return in this 
 world, but the new Era, thank God, now on the 
 way, will bring back to National Israel its God- 
 given constitution, the honoring of which is again 
 and again insisted upon in our Bible, (the last 
 chapter and last verses in it specifically tell you 
 not to forget the law of Moses) and upon the 
 honoring of that Constitution and the keeping of 
 its statutes, commandments and judgments, hangs 
 the cure for every trouble that to-day afflicts man- 
 kind in the United States of America. 
 
 That sounds a bit unreal, a bit overdrawn, 
 doesn't it? And yet it is true. Rev. Wm. Pascoe 
 Goard of Vancouver, author of *^New Light on 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 249 
 
 Old Paths,'' has printed a pamphlet ''The Na- 
 tional Message of the Bible'' that is absolutely 
 astounding and illuminating in what it points out 
 with reference to this matter. 
 
 After careful perusal of his basis of argu- 
 ment and the basic facts contained therein, taken 
 solely from the Bible, I have no hesitation in de- 
 claring that within 16 years the United States of 
 America as well as Canada, Australia and the 
 Mother Country, will each have repealed all their 
 man-made laws and will nationally have adopted 
 the digest of Constitutional law given to Moses 
 by Jehovah, as laid down in Deuteronomy, in 
 which you wiU notice there are 7to ordnances, they 
 being ecclesiastical and pertaining to the Altar 
 and the ecclesiastical duties of the Priesthood. 
 
 How did this Divine Constitution get mis- 
 laid after it was given to Israeli Well, Jeroboam, 
 whom you will remember as the first king of the 
 ten tribes of Israel, abrogated the ecclesiastical 
 law, and Omri, one of his successors, tiring of 
 Jehovah's digest of laws and statutes put them 
 aside, so causing Israel to sin, and then legislated 
 to suit his own ideas (Micah 6:16), since which 
 time the laws and statutes of Omri and his suc- 
 cessors have ruled the world and a pretty mess 
 they have made of it. 
 
 My friend, Henry Ford, would try to cor- 
 rect U.S.A. judgments by paying Judges from 
 $25,000 to $75,000 per annum for passing out 
 
250 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 judgment, and so make them independent of the 
 big interests, but it won't do Henry. YouVe got 
 to go back to the basic trouble which is not salary. 
 If your engine is missing: fix your engine, don't 
 waste time playing with the horn (or mouthpiece), 
 it won't get the flivver running. No Judge, I 
 care not how able he is, can assure anyone Justice 
 under the present system or lack of system of 
 man-made law, ''so scrap the lot," its the only 
 remedy that will bring results, and take on those 
 unchangeable eternal laws laid down for us, appli- 
 cable both on earth and in Heaven, which can no 
 more be changed than can the immutable laws of 
 nature laid down by the same author. 
 
 AVhat has it cost America for not taking 
 on and obeying these immutable laws! Well I 
 am certain that it is many billions of dollars 
 each and every year that you are giving them the 
 go-by. 
 
 The principles of right action, as Mr. 
 Goard points out are few: "They are all includ- 
 ed in the Constitution, they cannot be changed, 
 added to, or repealed: they are each one illustra- 
 tively applied in the Constitution; thereforo, the 
 Constitution is perfect in our age and is capable 
 of full application under our complex life." 
 « * # # 
 
 Constitutional legislation belongs to God 
 only and whenever a man or nation claims the 
 right to make laws, whether autocratic or demo- 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 251 
 
 cratic, he or it is trespassing upon the divine pre- 
 rogative, for God has not trusted men or nations 
 to mahe laws for the government of their 
 fellows/'* 
 
 Now you wise men of all our governments 
 who are turning out the everlasting grist of Omri- 
 made laws by the seventy-nine thousand per 20 
 years in one nation, which no one knows about, 
 which not one in a hundred thousand would un- 
 derstand if they knew of them, and which no one 
 obeys. Suppose you take a day oif and study 
 those simple laws laid down in the 50 pages of 
 our Bible for we-us-and-company the Anglo- 
 Saxon-Celtic nations and all others who will take 
 them on. 
 
 If my friend Samuel Gompers and the Am- 
 erican Federation of Labor, which he has guided 
 so ably these many years, would put a little time 
 in on this subject they would get the sure remedy 
 for all poverty, for all sickness, for all disease, 
 that now bears so hard on millions of the working 
 people in America: because most of us work on 
 this continent. 
 
 How many hundreds of millions of dollars

 buildings for these necessary [at present] public

 What does it cost America, in hundreds of 
 
 millions per annum for cattle diseases, for hog 
 fever, for tubercular cattle, for ticks, for the boll 
 weevil, for wheat rust, for the corn borer and the 
 hundreds of other blights and things that afflict 
 this present generation? 
 
 What is Afflicting America? 
 
 Listen you cool-headed business man and 
 you more hot-headed leaders of labor and you 
 chaps now being ground between the upper mill- 
 stone of Capitalism and the lower millstone of 
 Autocratic Unionized Labor. 
 
 The cure for all your ills has been awaiting 
 your acceptance three thousand years — ^but ye 
 would not. Look up Deut. 7 : ^ ^ Thou [Israel] shaU 
 therefore keep the commandments, and the 
 statutes, and the judgments which I command you 
 this day to do them." Verse 15: ^^And the Lord 
 will take from thee all sickness .... and mil put 
 none of the evil diseases of Egypt upon thee." 
 
 Then see, in chapter 28, the benefits that 
 would accrue if we kept these laws and statutes 
 and the troubles that would afflict us if we did not 
 
DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 253 
 
 keep them. Verse 1 : ** And it shall come to pass if 
 thoii shall harken diligently unto the voice of the 
 liord thy God to observe and to do all his com- 
 mandments which I command thee this day that 
 the Lord thy God will see thee on high above all 
 the nations of the earth. ' ^ 
 
 Then are shewn all the blessings due law- 
 keeping Israel. 
 
 Well ! We have not kept them but have been 
 running along since Omri's time under man-made 
 laws of several million sorts. No one knows how 
 many! and one is entitled to ask if we have re- 
 ceived the punishments promised and due us for 
 our neglect along this line. 
 
 In verses 16-22 some of the curses or disa- 
 bilities under which we shall labor are specified 
 and it is due us to look into them and see if we are 
 afflicted by them in America and Anglo-Saxondom, 
 at this time; because, if we are, the remedy is so 
 simple that the nation, were it so minded, could 
 correct all sickness, all disease, both of man and 
 beast; all influenza, all consumption and all pov- 
 erty through-out the land in very short order. 
 
 In verse 22: ^^The Lord shall smite thee 
 with a consumption, and with a fever, and with an 
 inflamation, and with an extreme burning, and 
 with the sword, and with blasting, and with a mil- 
 dew; and they (or these) shall pursue thee until 
 thou perish.'' 
 
254 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 Well gentlemen there they are ! Consump- 
 tion at the head of the list, the white man's plague. 
 Have we got it? and got it bad? ''With a fever/' 
 Hay fever claims its victims by the million and our 
 cities and farms are afflicted with scarlet, typhoid 
 and other fevers like smallpox, diphtheria, etc. 
 Over 50 per cent, of our population is afflicted with 
 catarrah of various kinds, and so on down the 
 line. 
 
 These and other diseases are pursuing us 
 until we perish by the hundreds of thousands. 
 Take the ''Flue'' alone, it hilled more people than 
 the Great War. As foretold, we have acquired all 
 the penalties mentioned by Moses fourteen hund- 
 red and fifty years before Christ. 
 
 ''It is well to note that these physical 
 troubles are not associated with the system of wor- 
 ship but with the system of government, and also 
 that the punishments are physical and not spirit- 
 ual," and it would seem possible for the nation to 
 accept the divine challenge and obtain freedom 
 from all its physical ills. 
 
 To-day the whole world is upset by reason 
 of the war debts and the dislocation of trade, and 
 the consequences — exchange troubles. Well, Mr. 
 Business Man, that was provided for in our 
 statute on credits in Deut., chapter 51. 
 
DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 255 
 
 ^*At the end of every seventh year thou 
 shalt make a release and this is the manner of the 
 release : Every creditor that lendeth ougJit to his 
 neighbour shall release it ; he shall not exact it of 
 his neighbour or of his brother because it is call- 
 ed the Lord's Release/' 
 
 This would seem a pretty fair authority to 
 quote (providing we really believe our Bibles are 
 the word of God) for the settlement of war debts 
 due by France and other nations all over the 
 world, which everyone knows can never be paid. 
 We seem to have adopted it as far as ordinary 
 debts are concerned, which are outlawed after 
 seven years in Anglo-Saxondom. 
 
 The highest authority in Heaven and on 
 earth laid down this law for us and for our 
 guidance. I wonder if we will accept it and ob- 
 tain the blessings pertaining thereto? 
 
 The reason why you are to do this releasing 
 of debts is also specified in verse 4, marginal read- 
 ing : ^ ^ To the end that there shall be no poor among 
 you, ' ' and also in verse 6 : ^ * For the Lord thy God 
 blesseth thee, as he promised thee, and thou shall 
 lend unto many nations, but thou shall not borrow, 
 and thou shall reign over many nations, but they 
 shall not reign over thee.'' 
 
 God gave America the natural wealth that 
 Ch'as. M. Schwab says put her as the foremost 
 commercial nation of the world and God also com- 
 
256 DESTINY OF BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 manded her to release her debtors every seventh 
 year. 
 
 Is America going to obtain her God-given 
 wealth and then duck the obligations laid down 
 for her guidance in our credit statues? Not on 
 your life. Not when she knows it! America re- 
 
 sponds quicker when her statesmen point the way 
 than any nation on earth. It's up to you states- 
 men! 
 
 Well, gentlemen, that's my story. 
 
 Thus endeth the first epistle of the Road- 
 builder to his friends in the United States of 
 America, to his friends in France, Britain and the 
 Dominions of Israel beyond the seas, whom he met 
 in those years of service at the Front. 
 
 Just note, that the two Frenchmen most re- 
 sponsible for winning the war, Clemenceau and 
 Foch, whose autographed photographs look down 
 at me as I write, both seem to be of Covenant 
 stock from Brittany, where the early Britons 
 settled and where the Normans (Benjamin tribe) 
 invaded, A.D. 1000, and nearly all the French 
 Navy are Bretons. I wonder how many more! 
 Israel was to be among all nations and, after 
 Armageddon, was to be drawn from the North, 
 South, East and "West to Jerusalem. I think all 
 nations who have the Lion of Judah on their na- 
 tional coat of arms are portions of Israel.

 If there are things herein that hurt, kindly 
 bear in mind that they were written with the best 
 intentions and with good will to stir people, par- 
 sons and professors to action and not to give pain. 
 If some of these words seem to bite and sting, 
 kindly look them over and see if it is not the facts 
 that hurt, facts that are, but should not be, that

 My most candid critic, my *^ better half,'' 
 says I am too hard on the English and Scotch. 
 Well, my mother came from Suffolk, England, of 
 Norman or Benjamin (the light bearing) stock — 
 hence, perhaps, why I'm impelled to send this, my 
 candle of light, and in a small way try to help light 
 the high road for wandering feet. My father came 
 from Glasgow; so, I have no natural prejudice 
 against my own forebears from the Isles. Being an 
 optimist and Scotch, I have hopes that I've not 
 wasted my time and my winter holidays as well, 
 for I have spent my spare hours and days for the 
 past year writing, rewriting and rearranging this 
 material by hand. If you haven't grasped and 
 absorbed the fact that national Israel's history is 
 foretold down through the ages in our Bible and 
 that the Anglo-Saxon-Celts fill every particular 
 prophecy, and that we are the Israel of the Bible, 
 I sure have misspent my time. 
 
 I feel, however, like the optimist who fell off 
 the fifty-fifth story of the Woolworth building in 
 New York, as he was falling through the air he 
 
258 DESTINY OP BRITAIN AND AMERICA 
 
 shot past a friend who was standing at his open 
 office window on the eleventh story and was heard 
 to say, **Well, I'm alright so far!'' 
 
 I wonld like to put this book into print used 
 by the blind, and present every soldier of the late 
 war who lost his sight fighting for God, for free- 
 dom, and for his country, with a copy of it, so 
 that each blind soldier in America may know and 
 understand the part he took with Israel as God's 
 battle axe and as His weapons of war, to bring 
 peace to this trouble-stricken world.

APPENDIX 
 
 WHAT OF JAPAN? 
 
 If Americans knew their future as laid down in 
 the Bible they would fear Japan as little as they now 
 do Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, because the 
 Samurai and up, or the white Japanese, are apparently 
 our own people of Joseph's seed who dwelt in Samaria, 
 before the dispersal of the ten tribes, hence their name, 
 Samurai. 
 
 These Samurai, like the New England stock in 
 America, have always ruled and are as thrifty, high 
 spirited and liberty-loving as are the Americans or the 
 English. They possess all those sturdy characteristics 
 that your Forefathers of Brith-ish stock possessed and 
 I do not wonder that their blood boils when for years 
 they have been referred to as a "yellow" race, by Pro- 
 Germans and your trouble breeding yellow sheets, as 
 well as this year by some people and newspapers who 
 should know better. The Samurai are no more "yellow" 
 than are the citizens of your Southern States, black, 
 though the labor in the South is done by the colored 
 sons of America, so also in Japan the labor is performed 
 by the Malay peoples or Yellow Japanese, but that does 
 not make the white folks of the Southern States black 
 any more than it makes the white peoples of Japan 
 yellow. If the Americans in the Southern States were 
 referred to and talked about as black men by Europeans, 
 they would then understand how these Japanese (who 
 can trace their descent farther back than can one in a 
 thousand of American or Enf?:lish-speaking peoples) feel 
 when they are spoken of and about as an inferior and 
 "yellow" race and as a "yellow peril." 
 
 259 
 
260 WHAT OF JAPAN? 
 
 The Samurai records show they came from 
 Eastern Asia over 2,600 years ago, about the time the 
 Ephraim Tribe dwelt in the City of Samaria, which was 
 the capital of the Ten Tribes, hence the prophets often 
 refer to the Ten Tribes as Samaria. The City was 42 
 miles north of Jerusalem, built 925 B.C. by Omri, and 
 the inhabitants were carried away captive to Media by 
 Shalmaneser B.C. 720. Eev. W. H. Poole, on Page 453,* 
 gives details of a tombstone found in the Crimea — "To 
 one of the faithful in Israel, Abraham-ben-mar-Sinchah 
 of Kertsch, in the year of an exile 1682, when the envoys 
 of the prince of Kosh Mescheck came from Kiow to our 
 Master, Chazar Prince David, Halah and Habor and 
 Gozen, to which place Tiglath-Pileser had exiled the 
 sons of Reuben and Gad and half the tribe of Manasseh, 
 and from which they have been scattered throughout 
 the entire East even as far as China." This date the 
 1682nd year of their captivity equals A.D. 961 and shews 
 that portions of Israel were known to be scattered as 
 far as China. 
 
 Another tombstone inscription of nearly 1,000 
 years earlier states, "This is the grave of Buki, the son 
 of Isaac, the priest, may his rest be in Eden at the time 
 of the deliverance of Israel. He died 702 of our Cap- 
 tivity.'^ This would be about 19 B.C. Hundreds of these 
 tombstones have been found in the Crimea on a high 
 and dry ridge lying east of Sebastopol, on the road from 
 Balaclava to Batshiserai, where tliere is an Israelitish 
 cemetery in close proximity to a fortification called 
 "Israel's fortress" and the entrance to this spot still 
 bears the name the Valley of Jehoshaphat. 
 
 Professor E. Odium, M.A., F.R.C. Inst., etc., who 
 for many years lectured in Tokio University, has given 
 thirty years' study to this question and is enroute to 
 Japan to make further studies along these lines, is cer- 
 tain that these ruling families and their offspring of the 
 
 * Anglo-Israel, W. H. Poole, Albert Britnell: Toronto. 
 
\ 
 
 < 
 
 WHAT OF JAPAN? 261 
 
 white Japanese, the Samurai, are from the same stock 
 as we Anglo-Saxon-Celts. 
 
 In support of this the Professor points out that 
 they trace their descent from the same mother that we 
 do. The Princess of On, whom Joseph married in Egypt. 
 They have among their oldest heraldry the Lion and the 
 Unicorn of the Ephraim Tribe (English) the tribe from 
 which they sprang. They have Moses' fiery serpent of 
 the desert among their ancient relics. In one of their 
 ancient temples they have an exact replica of The Ark 
 of the Tabernacle and once a year with much ceremony 
 the Priests of the Temple carry this ark on poles should- 
 er high, down to the water, stretch their feet over the 
 water and as it does not divide, they return the ark to 
 its resting place in the inner court of the Temple until 
 the next year. They have forgotten now why they do 
 this, and have done it year after year, down through 
 the centuries, the reason thereof having been lost to the 
 present day priests. 
 
 Their Shinto religion he finds after much study 
 to be practically the Hebrew religion of the Desert where 
 Moses lead the children of Israel for 40 years. 
 
 In parts of Japan, far removed from routes of 
 tourist travel, once a year the people are commanded 
 by the priest to stay in doors on a certain night because 
 the evil spirits are abroad and as a protection against 
 same, the aforementioned priest sprinkles the door posts 
 and lintels with a red vegetable stain so that the evil 
 spirits will "pass over.'' I wonder where their fore- 
 fathers first practised this rite? 
 
 If interested readers would look up in the En- 
 cyclopedia Britannica, 11th Edition, from page 206 on 
 they would fiind therein that the Japanese have every 
 outstanding characteristic possessed by Anglo-Saxons 
 and which to-day you claim as typical of America. 
 
 May I enumerate a few of them ? 
 
 Page 208. "Frugality, fealty and filial piety— 
 these may be called the fundamental virtues of the 
 Samurai."

 "Essentially a stoic, he made self-control the ideal 
 of his existence, just as do our unexpressive, unadver- 
 tising, Englishmen and also New England Americans. 
 
 Page 209. "The Samurai entertained a high re- 
 spect for the obligations of truth. "A bushi has no 
 second word was one of his favorite mottoes," just as 
 was and is the Quakers aye and nay in America. 
 
 Page 222. The Shinto religion signifies The 
 Divine Way. 
 
 "Shinto may be said to be entwined about the roots 
 of Japan's national existence. Its Scriptures, as the 
 Kojiki must be considered^ — resembles the Bible in that 
 both begin with the cosmogony.'' 
 
 Page 252. "Japanese annals represent the first 
 inhabitant of Earth as a direct descendant of the Gods." 
 
 Page 220. "While adopting from Confucianism 
 the doctrine of filial piety the Japanese grafted on it a 
 spirit of unswerving loyalty and patriotism and believed 
 that in the life beyond the grave the duty of guarding 
 his country would devolve on every man." . . . the 
 universally underlying principle was "serve the country 
 and be diligent in your respective avocations !" 
 
 Page 222. "Purity and simplicity being essential 
 characteristics of the cult, its shrines are built of white 
 wood absolutely without decorative features of any 
 kind "there are no graven images." 
 
 This is striking evidence that in the land from 
 which they originally came images must have been for- 
 bidden. To whom but our own people have graven im- 
 ages always been forbidden the same now as they were 
 2,600 years ago in Samaria. If they were pagan peoples 
 graven images would be their long suit. 
 
 The tenets of the Shinto creed divided itself 
 into two doctrines that seem fairly close to our own. 
 
 Page 209. Says the tenets of the Shinto creed 
 divided themselves, broadly speaking, into two doctrines, 
 "Salvation by Faith and Salvation by Works." What 
 pagan land did they get this from ? What heathen peo- 
 ple ever had those beliefs as their national religion ?

 Page 206. As in Israel and in America so in 
 Japan, every stalwart man had to bear arms at least as 
 early as the 8th Century. The early English were the 
 greatest long bowmen of Europe: Saxon bowmen won 
 our wars and it was the same in Japan. "The bow was 
 always the chief weapon of the fighting men in Japan. 
 War and bows and arrows were synonymous terms" . 
 . . . "Next in importance to the bow came the sword, 
 which is often spoken of as the Samurai's chief weapon, 
 though there can be no doubt that during long ages it 
 ranked after the bow" as it also did among the Anglo- 
 Saxons." 
 
 Page 207. "The Japanese never at any time of 
 their history used poisoned arrows: they despised them 
 as depraved and inhuman weapons", wherein they differ 
 from a more modern nation of alleged highest Kultur 
 who poisoned men by the thousand, yet we and you ac- 
 cepted Prussia on the basis of what our universities 
 claimed for her and her damnable higher criticism, and 
 where did our Professors of Science and Religion land 
 us with their blind acceptance of those "Made in Ger- 
 many" doctrines. 
 
 Page 207. "Although ambuscades and surprises 
 played a part in all strategy, pitch battles were the gen- 
 eral rule and it was essential that notice of an intention 
 to attack should he given by discharging a singing arrow. 
 Thereafter, the assaulting army, taking the word from 
 it^ Commander, raised a shout of Ei ! Ei ! to which the 
 other side replied, and the formalities having been thus 
 satisfied, the fight commenced. "Generosity to a defeated 
 foe was one of the tenets of the Samurai ethics"; 
 where outside of their Anglo-Saxon brethren will you 
 find generosity to a defeated foe practiced, even in these 
 days ? 
 
 Page 212. It is interesting to note from the En- 
 cyclopedia that Queen Victoria in 1858 presented Japan 
 with one quarter of the nucleus of their first War 
 fleet I wonder why ? Can it be that blood is 
 
264 WHAT OF JAPAN? 
 
 thicker than water and that as John Bull was in Manilla 
 Bay to help just when wanted, so our Queen helped 
 Japan to her feet when she was in swaddling clothes, 
 so to speak, and we have stood by her ever since as 
 Japan has stood by us, because the word of Japan's 
 statesmen is the equal of our own. 
 
 Page 273. "The intense pride of the Japanese 
 in their nationality, their patriotism and loyalty, arise 
 from their history, for what other nation can point to 
 an Imperial family of one unbroken lineage reigning 
 over the land for twenty-five centuries. Is it not a glor- 
 ious tradition for a nation that its emperor should be 
 descended directly from that grandson of "The great 
 heaven illuminating goddess" to whom she said, "This 
 Japan is the region over which my descendants shall be 
 the Lords. Do thou my august child, proceed thither 
 and govern it." Go! The prosperity of thy dynasty shall 
 he coeval with Heaven and Earth/' 
 
 That almost sounds like the promises made to 
 David that his seed shall endure as the sun and the 
 moon before him. 
 
 Well reader, here are all these facts that seem to 
 favor Professor Odium's belief that Japan was, and 
 therefore still is, a portion of Israel who took council 
 among themselves when they were captives of the 
 Assyrians saying, "let us go into a far country where 
 never yet men dwelt that they might there keep the 
 commandments that they had not kept in their own 
 land." I have wondered if Isaiah, Chapter 41, which 
 was directed to the Brith Colony of the Isles or Britain, 
 might in verse 25 refer to Japan, also of the Isles, lo- 
 cated in the north and towards the sun-rising, and they 
 have on their banners the rising sun for a totem or way- 
 mark ? The verse reads ; 
 
 "I have raised up one from the North, and he 
 shall come : from the rising of the sun shall he call 
 upon my name; and he shall come upon princes as 
 upon mortar and as the potter treadeth clay." 
 
WHAT OF JAPAN? 265 
 
 If the Samurai of Japan are of Israel from 
 Samaria, then they are of Joseph's seed to whom was 
 given the material blessings and material wealth and 
 the commission to settle the waste places of the earth 
 and to whom also were given the heathen for an in- 
 heritance, then I submit is Japan entitled to take on 
 her share of settling these waste places of the earth 
 adjoining her bailliwick, provided she carries out the 
 God-given instructions of governing with truth and 
 justice that Israel was commissioned to carry to the ends 
 of the earth. 
 
 By their fruits ye shall know them ! Suppose we 
 examine Japan from this angle. This is still the Divine 
 method for judging men, churches and nations. Let us 
 forget the German-made propaganda made against 
 Japan since the day she defeated Russia at Port Arthur, 
 from which day Germany saw a possible rival in the 
 East and commenced to holler 'TTellow Peril" and her 
 minions have been at it ever since, and to-day thousands 
 of our best citizens, as well as yours, believe all the true 
 and all the false things said about Japan by those paid 
 employees of the Von Papen brand of Germans. Where 
 was Japan in the late War? How long did she take to 
 get into the game? These were the fruits she brought 
 forth then and I believe she will do likewise in Armaged- 
 don our next, greatest, and last war. 
 
 What if Japan is a part of Israel? then who are 
 we to deny her that share of God's blessings promised 
 to Joseph's seed, because "when God divided unto the 
 nations their inheritance, he did it according to the 
 numbers of the Children of Israel" who were to be scat- 
 tered among all nations, and if Japan be of Israel stock 
 then room must be found for her or she will find it and 
 take it as God's purpose cannot be defeated ; all sections 
 of Israel must have room to bloom and grow properly. 
 
 America, Canada and Australia do not desire that 
 Japanese immigrants be allowed to enter their ports 
 (at present), though Israel was instructed by the Cre- 
 
266 WHAT OF JAPAN? 
 
 ator to keep their national doors open to all. America 
 has been the melting pot for all nations. To-day she 
 allows Jews from all countries under heaven, good, bad 
 and indifferent, to enter her ports and overflow her 
 cities; and she refuses to receive the clean, thrifty, sav- 
 ing, and hard-working Japanese, who largely works on 
 the land, permission to enter. ... I wonder why ? 
 
 There must be some unpublished reason why the 
 type of Jews who fill the poorer quarters of your big 
 Eastern Cities are preferred as immigrants to the clean, 
 energetic, long-hour workers on the land where workers 
 are so scarce and where more production is so badly 
 needed to keep the working men fed, and such the Japs 
 have shown themselves to be in California and in 
 British Columbia as the vegetable growers in those sec- 
 tions. 
 
 For years I marvelled at the fear expressed by 
 America's papers and politicians at little Japan's designs 
 in the Pacific until I realized 'twas made in Germany 
 to keep Japan from reaping the fruits of her victory 
 over Russia. Germany had intended taking the Philip- 
 pines after your nation won them from Spain, in the 
 same way she took areas in China after making Japan 
 give them up, and that was why the German fleet 
 steamed into Manilla Bay when Admiral Dewey had 
 taken the Islands. Japan having had this humiliating 
 experience does not propose in future to be in such a 
 feeble condition on the sea that any nation can force 
 her to give up what she is honorably entitled to possess, 
 
 Japan would have as much chance in war against 
 the U.S.A. as a Ford flivver would have in a head-on 
 collision with a ten-ton Packard truck; the fliver might 
 dent the radiator in front but that would be the begin- 
 ning and end of the damage done, while it would be 
 smashed in the head-on impact and run over by the 
 truck and the Japanese are wise enough to see that, and 
 I believe they have no more idea of fighting with U.S.A. 
 than has Canada your northern neighbor. 
 
WHAT OF JAPAN? 267 
 
 If Japan is a section of Israel then she as much 
 as we, was promised the heathen for an inheritance and 
 the waste places of the earth, and we should therefore 
 treat her accordingly and judge her by her fruits, and 
 by her past performance of her engagements. 
 
 As another way-mark of where Japan is heading 
 I noted in a Boston Herald, Sept. 15, 1921, issue, that 
 learning to read English is now one of the requirements 
 in Japanese schools and so it is being taught in all 
 Japanese schools. Only ten per cent, of Japanese are 
 illiterate, a much lower percentage than war tests found 
 in America in 1917. When Japan acquires English 
 how long will it be before she nationally adopts our 
 Bible and becomes our Brother in language and ideals? 
 
 The U.S.A. years ago served notice by one Mim- 
 roe to all European Nations "Hands Off America." 
 Has Japan not quite as much right to-day to say to the 
 world "Hands Off Asia" and if not, why not ? America 
 had a Bible authority for her action in that respect. What 
 if Japan has the same authority ? Japan does not treat 
 her engagements as scraps of paper. She came to the 
 world's assistance in the world's hour of need. She did 
 everything she was asked to do, did it surprisingly well 
 and was willing to do more, and now we are told Amer- 
 ica has asked Britain to throw her friend of yesterday 
 overboard after using her and not to renew the treaty 
 she has with her comrade in arms, Japan, and the present 
 mouthpiece of Canada's Government says "Me Too." 
 But John Bull, Australia and New Zealand are in the 
 right this time and will, I think, prevail and a renewed 
 treaty made with, I hope, the U.S.A. included. 
 
 During the war, when Canada, Australia, New 
 Zealand and South Africa asserted their right as 
 equal partners in the Brith-ish Commonwealth of 
 nations and were granted the same, the nation to 
 object was their brother, the United States of America, 
 who had had to fight against and not for Great Britain 
 to receive the same rights, all of which were God-given 
 
268 WHAT OF JAPAN? 
 
 rights laid down thousands of years ago and now being 
 put into practice. 
 
 America fears five votes to one when, as a matter 
 of fact, the chances are that the younger nations of the 
 Commonwealth (because it is not an Empire governed 
 from a central point) are much more apt to vote with 
 U.S.A. and against Great Britain, as all these young 
 nations have a freedom of thought and a vision of the 
 mind that is given to but few Englishmen in the tight 
 little Isle, but is characteristic of the broad acres of the 
 U.S.A., Canada, Australia and South Africa. 
 
 At any rate they are nations the equal of and 
 as self-governing as is America. 
 
 Yet America stood against our signing the Peace 
 Treaty and to-day we are not invited to take part in 
 the November 11th disarmament conference, unless in- 
 vited by Britain to make up part of their delegation. In 
 other words we can only get in by crawling under the 
 protecting wings of Mother Britain as little chicks do 
 under the mother hen. 
 
 How long Will it be ere Brother Jonathan realizes 
 that we are full grown nations with a large following 
 of our own and to ask us to crawl under any shelter- 
 ing wings is belittling to the dignity that we in com- 
 mon with all other Israelitish nations possess as their 
 birthright. 
 
 If Japan is of Israelis brotherhood they must be 
 treated as such or we and you will pay the penalty for 
 standing in the way of the Creator's designs. 
 
 If your Government and ours were only wise to 
 what was coming during the next 15 years they would 
 bind Japan to them with bands of steel at the coming 
 conference, because they will need Japan as Japan will 
 never need the U. S. A., because if they are not for us 
 they will be against us in Armageddon. I, however, 
 have every confidence in Japan being with us just as 
 they were in the late war. 
 
WHAT OF JAPAN? 269 
 
 Instead of asking Britain to break with her friend 
 who came to the help of the world in the time of the 
 world's greatest need, which is an evidence of who they 
 are, America should join with the Brith-ish Common- 
 wealth of Nations and Japan in a triple open and above 
 board covenant and then all quit building super-dtead- 
 noughts and build ships for carrying aeroplanes instead, 
 and fast up-to-date cruisers, etc., because the time is 
 coming when five men shall chase an hundred, but you 
 must be ready to transport your series of fives in a 
 hurry. 
 
 The world witnessed its last big sea war, when 
 the Battle of Jutland was fought in 1917.
