    “Only a Shadow” The Signs of the Times, 23, 21.

    E. J. Waggoner

    Only a Shadow. —Every shadow of darkness, every cloud of gloom, every fear of whatever kind, is simply the shadow of death and of the devil. He has cast his hellish shadow over the world. Now, as Zacharias prophesied by the Holy Ghost, at the birth of his son, the Lord has visited us and delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, that we “might serve him without fear.”SITI May 27, 1897, page 323.1

    He has delivered us from every tremor of fear, and hath sent the Dayspring from on high “to give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death.” If you have his life, you have his light. What is there to be afraid of? To the one in Christ, death itself is only a shadow. The sting is gone. Satan can cast the shadow over him, but there is nothing in a shadow to be afraid of. He is delivered from the power of darkness. He is going through an enemy’s land, whose weapons are all broken. He is going into a nest of scorpions, whose stings have been removed. He is going into a prison-house, the key of which is held by One who loves him. E. J. W.SITI May 27, 1897, page 323.2
