The s :"Jfct Kt'lwlcil by the lesson
commltt Is "The Lnst Judgment,'
btit this is tin ?*rrnr. According to
legitimate ti'Xluiil and contextual slg
nltlcntlon' It Is the Judgment of the
llvlnir nations which still lies In the
future (v. ?2). The Idea of a general
Judgment which I* of such frequent
OfiJiiri'nrc In religious literature and
teaching Is a fundamental error. It
Is not once found in the Hlhie, neither
the idea which It 1* Intended to con
vey. Doctor Pentecost most truthful
ly f\vs. "II is a mischievous habit that
tins led the f'hrlstlnn world to speak
of the Judgment as being one great
event taking place nt the end of the
world when nil humnn beings, saints
and sinners, Jews and Gentiles, the
living and the dead, shall stand up be
fore the great white throne and there
?>e Judged. Nothing can be more wide
bf the Scriptures." The lllble speaks
Of several Judgments, different In re
ject to the subjects to be Judged,
the plnce of Judgment, the time of
jtidgmcnt and the result of Judgment.
I. The Judge (v. HI).
It Is the Son of CJod who came and
JSled to redeem the human race. He Is
feow seen clothed with majesty and
power sitting upon His throne acting
os Judge. Those who accept Jesus
fHirlst now as their Savior shall not
come Into Judgment (John {1:24).
; II. The Time (v. 31).
?f ThlH Judgment will take place when
|he Lord comes In His glory accom
panied with a retinue of glorious
angels. This will take place after He
lias gathered the elect remnant of Is
rnel. There will be no resurrection
In connection with this Judgment.
III. The Plaoe (v. 31).
The prophecy of Joel, the third chap
ter, and Zecharlah 14:1-5, show that
Jt Is to be In or near Jerusalem. The
angel Said to Mary, "Thop glial t cull
Bis name Jesus. He shall be great and
?hall be called the Son of the Highest:
and the I,ord Clod shall give unto Him
the throne of His father David. And
tie shall reign over the house of Jacob
forever; and of His kingdom there
fhall he no end." (Luke 1:31-33). As
David was n literal king and reigned

wont for nianv years. The town was
not large en<yjjh to be classic! a city,

the secretary, as she glanced over her

Ntw Study Of Navy Determined Upov
At White Mouae?Saya Speech
Waa Misinterpreted
Washington.?At Che suggestion ot
President Coolldge. Secretary Wilbur
has begun a comprehensive study of
the relative value of each arm of the
national defense under the navy de
partment with a view to recommend
ng a co-ordinated program for develop
ment during the next several years.
The work is to be taken up later by
a board of experts, which probably will
Include representatives of the other
services as well as key civilian indus
tries.
The new study of the navy was d^
termlned upon at a white bouse con
ference which lasted about an hour.
Mr. Wilbur, at its conclusion, said he
had rendered a report on his five
weeks' Inspection of the fleet and na
val shores stations on the west coast
and of the political situation there as
he had observed it.
The secretary declared his speeches
during the period had not been dis
cussed at the conference, and the only
explanation given for the president's
request that he return to the capital
was that a new valuation of air. sub
marine and surface craft of the navy
was necessary with a view to adjust
ing the sums to he sought for each
from the budget.
Being certain that this was the
matter in view Mr. Wilbur said, he
had instructed Walter R. Gherardi.
his aide, who Is recognized as an ex
pert upon aviation, t to prepare a
memorandum during the return trip
letting forth the accepted view of the
Bervice. It drew the conclusions that
the fleet should be maintained at top
efficiency, with the strength allotted
In accordance with the limitation of
ftrms treaty while every effort was
made to develop and organize the air
forces as a concrete auxiliary.
In explanation of his own opinion,
the secretary referred to a receqt
ipeech 1n which he declared "the bat
tleship stlil is the backbone of na
tional defense." This was the view
sxpressed two years ago by the joint
.irmy and navy board headed by Gen
eral Pershing and Is said to be ad
hered to by veteran strategists in both
departments, despite the progress in
aviation.
Secretary Wilbur declared much of
the7adverse comment regarding his re
cent speeches was the result of mis
Quotations. No criticism of the Japa
nese had been voiced in his address at
Seattle, he asserted, but, on the con
iry, the entire speech was designed
be "conciliatory."
Similarly, he said, the Catallna
,>eech had been misinterpreted as an
ttack upon prohibition, when it was
itended merely^ to point the ex
?eme to which non - observance of
olitical rights could be carried. That
ddress was made, he said, to an as
emblage of lavyyers who clearly per
eived its import.
