Last Great Day - Richard D Armstrong - October 17, 1957

Richard D Armstrong

Well, this is the Last Great Day, and it's no longer the Feast of Tabernacles. This is another day entirely. We usually call it the Last Great Day, and in a way, this is a very sad day. Yet, in another way, it's the happiest day of all too. It's sad because we can realize that as we're all gathered here, we'll be leaving tonight after sundown, as the Sabbath ends. And we won't - some of us won't see each other again until next year. Perhaps there are some who will even drop out, whom we don't see again from time to time. We're rather sad at having to leave all of our brothers and sisters in the church, to know that now we go back out. We have another year before we'll meet again. Yet, what this day symbolizes is perhaps one of the happiest things and one of the most joyous hopes that we have. And it's something that this world is totally without, that no other church understands, that no other group, denomination, or sect, or any other people, has any faith in or hope toward, knows, or any knowledge of. Now, the Holy Days, as you've had explained, picture God's plan to us. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
