It traces the salvific necessity of Jesus sacrifice, the Lamb of God, and the transforming effect on believers while warning against unbelief and emphasizing preaching the cross as the sole true gospel.

Crown Prince’s Cab Fare Sticks, Kingly Gesture In Copenhagen
A London paper recounts the Danish crown prince hailing a cab in ordinary dress at Copenhagen station. The cabby refuses extra pay from sightseers, the prince pays with a ten krones piece he cannot change and tells him to keep it. The prince’s courteous gesture contrasts with the crowd funneled by royal watchers.
