"... the Standard of Truth has been erected; no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing; persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, armies may assemble, calumny may defame, but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent, till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished, and the Great Jehovah shall say the work is done."*
The truth of God is going forth boldly throughout the world. The purposes of God will be accomplished. What a great day it will be when the Great Jehovah says "the work is done."
When we were missionaries, this statement was used at our weekly missionary meetings. What a wonderful feeling it was then to be part of spreading the Lord's word and doing His work. It still is a good feeling.
