PROMISE FOR APRIL 28TH

"There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." 1 Corinthians 10:13

Our LORD'S words respecting the temptations and trials of the Church assure us that this class shall have nothing to fear, that they will be kept, that it will not be possible for them to be tempted, for with every temptation the LORD will provide a way of escape.... What we do desire is that each consecrated child of God may see the way of escape which God has provided and may use the same, and thus be in line with the LORD'S provision and amongst those shielded ones, the very elect--"called, chosen, faithful." ... We believe that many of our readers will agree with us that the LORD'S special provision for keeping us from the power of the Evil One is the Present Truth, which he has supplied largely through the Studies in the Scriptures. R. 4253, c.1, p.2,3.
