PROMISE FOR SEPTEMBER 30TH

"Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth." Rev. 3:10

"The word of my patience,"--or, the patience which my Word inculcates....This word patience has the thought of an endurance of evil in a cheerful, willing, patient manner....Such a development of heart and character as manifests itself in an endurance of wrong or affliction with contentment, without rebellion of will, with full acquiescence in the Divine wisdom and love. ...If ever patient endurance was necessary it is necessary now; if ever it was true, "In patience possess ye your souls," it is so now. Those running the race acceptably, and possessing this patient endurance, will be able "to stand in this evil day," and no others will be able to stand. R2790,c2,p6; R2792,c1,p6; c2,p1
