Dear Brethren The study we have been assigned can be controversial and we hope we can come to some conclusions by the consideration of the following Reprint Articles: 497 and R509 on the 'Seven Last Plagues' and also R 4057 'The Voice of the Three Signs'.
We would like to determine some of the following points:

- What relationship does the call 'come out of her my people, that ye be partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.' (Rev. 18:4) have to our study?
- What is suggested in R 4057 as the 'Voice of the Three Signs' and when do they apply?
