A Good Word from Memphis.

There is quite a good interest in this place. A number have sought the Lord and found peace in believing, and are uniting their influence to the cause of present truth. Backsliders are waking up, and the Spirit of the Lord is moving them out to lay hold of eternal life. There is no undue excitement, but a candid, gradual, calculative work. We trust it will prove permanent. And still the good work is progressing.
The church in this place is rising and girding on strength. Some have a good working spirit which is so much needed in these last days. I greatly rejoice in the good work here. But it must not stop at this point. Others must be reached and brought to a more full consecration to God. Short of this, we cannot rest. The prospect of eternal life in a little while is glorious beyond description. All things are ready. We will hasten to the marriage supper of the Lamb.
