Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Great Temperance Controversy: Comprising Pearl Series of Lectures
Let not the arch-enemy of the happiness and well-being of mankind be deceived with the thought that the siege of battle against his armies will fail or be withdrawn until God shall send forth judgment unto victory.
Finally, a victory for temperance is a victory for Christ and the interest of His Kingdom. This country for Christ is the motto faith has nailed to its mast. And in the work for its realization the Christian soldier, and the distinctive temperance worker, can join hands. So this work has a two-fold significance, as has well-nigh every work. But let no one be deceived, this great work in none of its bearing is not nearly accomplished yet. Reformers have thrown one single pebble into the expansive ocean of temperance work, and, from the shore of time, are watching with patient solicitude the deepening and ever-widening circle of the waves it has set in motion. But it is more than probable that temperance 'reformers have formed a misconception of the extent and magnitude of the work yet to be performed. And it is also pos sible that the work in hand may extend far into the centuries yet to come.
