PRESERVATION
ES'l'nF..B
7
people
at
my
request;
for
we
are
sold,
I
and
my
people,
to
be
destroyed,
to
be
slain,
and
to
perish.
But
if
we
had
been
sold
for
bondmen
and
bondwomen,
I
had
held
my
tongue,
although
the
enemy
could
not
countervail
the
king's
dam
age."-7:
3,4.
Esther
asked
not
only
for
her
own
life,
but
for
the
life
of
her
people
as
well,
thus
disclos
ing
to
the
king
and
to
Haman
that
she
was
a
Jewess.
This
was
the
crucial
hour,
and
she
met
the
test
bravely.
Today
God's
remnant
appeal
to
the
heavenly
King
for
the
preservation
of
God's
people
to
his
own
honor.
They
do
not
appeal
to
Satan's
organization
for
protection
from
their
enemies,
yet
they
are
plainly
telling
the
political
and
commercial
elements
of
the
world
that
the
clergy
of
so-called
"organized
Christianity"
are
hypocrites
and
are
seeking
the
destruction
of
God's
witnesses
who
are
espoused
to
Christ.
The
remnant
must
definitely
identify
themselves
as
members
of
the
Lord's
'elect
serv
ant'
class.
This
they
do
not
do
egotistically,
but
do
so
in
taking
their
firm
and
unequivocal
stand
for
Jehovah.
King
Ahasuerus
then
said
to
Esther:
'Who
and
where
is
he
who
dares
thus
to
do
this
terri
ble
crime

With
emphatic
and
dramatic
speech
Esther
replied:
'There
is
the
man,
the
adversary
and
enemy,
the
wicked
Haman.'
It
was.then
that
Haman
showed
fear.
He
knew
that
"the
jig
was
up"
with
him.
May
it
not
be
that
the
Haman
class
will
show
some
fear
when
they
awake
fully
to
the
fact
that
it
is
by
the
hand
and
power
of
Jehovah
God
that

136 PRESERVATION Esrume 7 people at my request; for we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to ba slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not countervail the king’s damage.”—7 : 8, 4. Ksther asked not only for her own life, but for the life of her people as well, thus disclosing to the king and to Haman that she was a Jewess. This was the crucial hour, and she met the test bravely. Today God’s remnant appeal to the heavenly King for the preservation of God’s people to his own honor. They do not appeal to Satan’s organization for protection from their enemies, yet they are plainly telling the political and commercial elements of the world that the clergy of so-called “organized Christianity” are hypocrites and are seeking the destruction of God’s witnesses who are espoused to Christ. The remnant must definitely identify themselves as members of the Lord’s ‘elect servant’ class. This they do not do egotistically, but do so in taking their firm and unequivocal stand for Jehovah. King Ahasuerus then said to Esther: ‘Who and where is he who dares thus to do this terrible crime? With emphatic and dramatic speech Iisther replied: “There is the man, the adversary and enemy, the wicked Haman.’ It was then that Haman showed fear. He knew that “the jig was up” with him. May it not be that the Haman class will show some fear when they awake fully to the fact that it is by the hand and power of Jchovah God that the witness work of the rem
