Bro. William E. Everett’s Testimony
By Wm. E. Everett
BRO. WM. E. EVERETT writes from Faribault Co., Minn.: I want to acknowledge the receipt of the Review, which comes to me weekly as a very welcome visitor. It has been nearly two years since my mind was first called to the investigation of the Sabbath question. It was by the way of sister Brant's receiving letters from her sister in Wisconsin who was an Adventist, and was trying to show her the light of the present truth. Then Eld. Ingraham came here and preached on the Sabbath, and in the course of the winter a year ago delivered a course of lectures on the prophecies of Daniel and the Revelation, and I never heard the word of God made so plain before, such a complete connection of truth. I gave my heart to God when only ten years of age, and have tried to serve him ever since, over thirty two years. Nine years, I remained with the Methodist church, and then, having learned from the study of God's word that I must follow Christ down into the water, I came out and joined the Baptists, and remained in connection with them until four years ago, when I took a letter from the church, and moved from Freeborn Co., to where we now live, expecting to unite here but this I have not done. I long to be with the people of God, and enjoy the privileges of God's house. Pray for me and my family, that we may all see the light of God's truth and walk therein, and prepare for the coming of Christ, to dwell in his kingdom.
