A young man walked into a gospel meeting one night. During the service his attention, was attracted, by a black banner hanging up in front of the audience with these words on it:— “The coming of the Lord draweth nigh.” (James 5:8.) During the meeting the banner was turned, and these words confronted him: “Prepare to meet thy God.” (Amos 4:12.) God spoke to that young man in awfully solemn tones by that banner, and his conversion soon followed.
