At a long blast with the ram’s horn the walls of the city shall fall.
Josh. vi:5.
Fifty loud blasts from The Ram’s Horn will be found in this book of
Cartoons. At their reverberating peal may the walls of Mammon, Rum and
Unbelief fall shattered in the dust.
THE RAM’S HORN,
Chicago, U. S. A.
WANTED! A DAVID.
The church can scarcely be said to be somnolent. It is awake and
active. But its activities are too frequently spent in affairs that
do not relate to its mission which is to fight the hosts of sin in a
wicked world. The giants of iniquity stalk forth boldly. They find the
church not in battle but in the tents, feasting and drinking, planning
for dime socials and not for war against sin. Oh that some modern David
would soon step forth and teach us that it is not shields nor armor nor
tall steeples nor worldly expedients that are to win the day. It is
faith in God. That is what gave aim and speed to the stone that slew
Goliath, and it is what will give efficacy now to work and prayer.
Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand.
_Ephesians 6:11._

It was fortunate that the Savior did not build his church upon a
perishable foundation. When in answer to his inquiry Peter said, Thou
art the Christ the Son of the living God, Jesus had a corner stone for
an edifice whose summit would reach the stars and whose base would
be as broad as creation. The church is founded upon a fact and that
fact is the historic Christ. No lever of human assumption bolstered
by conceit has ever moved that corner stone the breadth of a hair.
The church of Jesus is founded upon the impeccable, the faithful, the
everlasting Christ who is the same yesterday, today and forever. Touch
not the walls of Truth which surround Zion. They are impregnable.
For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is
Jesus Christ. _I Cor. 3:11._
