Words in Season

1909? to 2008?

Edited by:  Dr E.A. Martin (firstly). Laters Charles R. Keller, Samuel C. Keller.

Published by\in: Charles R. Keller, 6672 Chew Street, Philadelphia, Pa. (by 1938)


Extolled 'Old Paths' around the time of the 1914 division. I'm told "Ended in rancor due to its unyielding conservatism being no longer palatable to the most of the upcoming generation of Gospel Hall brethren, whose organ is now only Truth & Tidings."

Since April 2010 a magazine "Truths for our Day" truthsforourday.com has been published that is in some respects, intended to carry on the direction of WIS, and it has the index to all the articles since the beginning. This magazine is also translated and published in Spanish as "Verdades para Nuestros Días" and is available at verdades.mysitecreations.com/

Have quite a lot of single issues from 60s and 70s too but I'll leave off adding for now unless anyone particularly interested in them.

Tom, do you have the 1960 issue of Words in Season? I am looking for an obituary of Oliver Smith of Waterloo, Iowa.

The enquiry about Oliver G. Smith has revealed some moving tributes to this servant of God who loved sinners (as our Lord did!).

“He had a great love for sinners. He told me before he was out entirely in the work (for brother Smith farmed and preached some years before he started out entirely in the Gospel-Editor), that many a time when following the team working in the fields, he would weep as he thought of poor sinners going to Hell, and he would stop the team.”

It was Charles Spurgeon who said (I paraphrase) that if sinners would go to hell, then let them go, but over our bodies as we try to prevent them.
