A Call for Advent Preachers
Bro. O. Heffer writes from Attica, Ohio: “It is only a few weeks since I commenced to take the Review, but I am well pleased with its contents so far and hope that its usefulness may continue and increase. I was so prejudiced against the Adventists through the influence of their opponents, that I would scarcely read their paper. I also opposed the doctrine which they held to be Bible doctrine, wherever I went. I formerly preached the immortality of the soul, the eternal, unending punishment of the wicked; but God had mercy upon me because I did it ignorantly. There were no Advent preachers here, neither have I ever seen one. There are about a dozen brethren in this section that believe the doctrine as far as they are able to comprehend it. We would be very glad if some one of the preachers could come over and help us. We want light. We desire to keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus; therefore we say again, Come over and help us. There are many here that would be glad to hear an Advent preacher.”
