The New Year

By Editor

THIS number completes Volume 88. Another year has been numbered with the past. We believe that our readers have obtained real spiritual food, and in consequence help and strength, from the excellent matter which has been placed before them in the columns of the REVIEW during the past year. Surely no one can read our general church paper, from week to week, without feeling his heart thrill as he notes the onward sweep of this great movement with which we are connected, and the marvelous and unmistakable ways by which, in the providence of God, openings have been created in every land. God's wondrous working is not confined to the past. He is working in behalf of his truth to-day as wondrously as he did for Israel of old in opening before them the Red Sea. His workings are not always in the same channel. He does not move always in the same path, and that is the reason we fail to recognize what he is doing.
The editors of the REVIEW will seek to make the coming year, as far as possible, one of faithful record in the onward progress of the work. Some excellent things will be presented in articles which have already been arranged for, from some of our leading brethren. We earnestly ask the cooperation of our workers throughout the field, and of all of our readers, in making the paper what it should be in God's great purpose in the year to come. Write and tell us what the Lord is doing in your field, of the living experience he is giving you or your associates. Pass on to others the revelations of God to your own soul. This will prove a word fitly spoken and seed planted in good ground, which will spring up in some heart unto life eternal. We heartily wish and pray for all our readers a happy and blessed new year.
ELDER C. P. LILLIE reports the arrival of himself and Mrs. Lillie at Shanghai, China, after a fair voyage across the Pacific. “We were most cordially received by the brethren,” he writes, “and feel wonderfully at home and of good courage.”
