142 RELIGION Joel 1:10 up, and the politicians, with the clergy, shout: “Give us more religion.” Jehovah describes the situation in these words: “For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing [cursing | the land mourneth; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course [violence] is evil, and their force is not right. For both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, saith the Lord. Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery ways in the darkness; they shall be driven on, and fall therein; for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the Lord.”—Jeremiah 23: 10-12, margin. In “Christendom” there is no substantial, basie food available: “For the corn is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the [olive] oil languisheth.” Such is the present-day condition of “Christendom”. She is without spiritual nourishment, and hence the religionists look to the politicians and the money-changers to hold “Christendom’s” organization together. There is no more “joy of the Lord” amongst the religionists, because now they are against Jehovah God and against his King and kingdom and have gone entirely away to Satan and his world and have become a part of it. The Lord is revealing these truths today for the special aid and benefit of the people of good will, the Jonadabs, and, this information coming to them, they discern the miserable situation of religion and religionists, and they are fieeing to God’s kingdom that they might there find protection and refuge before and during Armageddon. Many sincere people have been under the influence and control
