CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

I know times are tough, don’t you think I don’t know it. God knows it, too. He’s standing there beside you when you’re looking for honest work, trying to feed your babies, trying to pay your rent. He’s got His hand on your back, propping you up in these hard times and you know it’s true. We’ll get through this, friends, like we got through the war and the influenza. We’re not going to be like some around us, some I won’t name—but surely God knows their names, knows the filthy cabins in which they sleep—stealing and cheating and fornicating and cursing the Lord’s name. What does it say, friends, in The Book? It says, “Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the spark of his fire shall not shine.” That’s Job 18:15. He knew a thing or two, did old Job.

—REVEREND CLARENCE GOODALL,

CHURCH OF CHRIST RETURNING, 1936
