MORE TRUTH FOR THE DANES.
By JOHN MATTESON
For the past two months I have attended mostly to the writing of my manuscripts, and I feel thankful to our heavenly Father for the blessing I have enjoyed in that time, and his gracious assistance in compiling the work. I am now in Battle Creek, and have commenced setting the type. I propose to have three books printed, all in the Danish language. 1. Life and Death, a book containing about 220 pages. It will embrace three subjects, The Nature of Man; The Reward of the Saints; and The Punishment of the Wicked. 2. Scripture References, 16 pages. 3. Forty Questions on Immortality, 4 pages. We have thought of issuing 1500 copies of the first and of the second, and 2000 copies of the last mentioned tract. We have prayed and labored that the work of God may prosper also among our Danish and Norwegian friends. The Lord has graciously heard our prayers and blest our labors so far, but we need more of his blessing that the work may go on, and for this we still pray and work. It is our honest conviction that these books, under the blessing of God, may be made instrumental in saving souls, wherefore we would invite our brethren and friends, who may be interested in this branch of the cause, to lend a helping hand, by sending in their contributions. We have ventured out so far, spending our time and strength, and believing this to be in the providence of the Lord, we hope that others will join with us. The expenses of printing will be about $450.00. We have in the Danish Tract fund, left from the Sabbath Tract about $60.00. Contributions should be addressed to the Review Office. If we receive donations and sell books enough to cover more than the expenses, the surplus will be used for future publications in the same language. I have found a kind reception among my brethren here at Battle Creek. The Lord is still with them, and they enjoy some of the blessing of his holy Spirit. Bro. Loughborough has been laboring for some time here, and a good work is going on. May the Lord lead his people to final victory, and we find a place with them in the kingdom of God. Battle Creek, Mich., March 29, 1867.
