ith the breath of His mouth.'

"We preach not the gospel of the grace of God which, aforetime, before
'The Rapture,' was preached, that gospel which was good news of glad
tidings to all sinners. That gospel told how He had lived on earth for
over thirty-years--God inhabiting a human body, for God was in Christ
reconciling the world unto Himself--it told how He died a death of
shame and agony, a substitute for sinners, so that whosoever should
believe on Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life. And as

faithful witnesses to His coming, all such we proclaim, shall live the
glorious life which He has for such."

The crowd numbered a hundred thousand now, and the majority of them
kept up a sullen murmur against the preaching.

A native prince of a notable eastern realm, plucked a javelin-type of
weapon from his cumberband and hurled it full into the face of the
preacher. It never reached its mark, but, boomerang like, it returned
to the thrower and shattered and entered his right temple.

But for the density of the crowd, the eastern would have dropped to the
earth like a stone--for he was dead.

A way was made for a few to drag the body clear of the mob, then, once
clear, those who dragged it thence returned to the crowd. "Without
