REPORT FROM BRO. RODMAN.
By P. C. Rodman
SINCE the last report from this place I have given ten discourses, held three social meetings; two that embraced the truth have moved to Ohio, one who commenced to keep God's Sabbath has stopped by the way for want of courage to persevere in the midst of the opposition. God pity her and those that influenced her not to obey what they confess is the truth. One more has left the place, being only a transient resident here. Hope he will hold on to the truth and obey the Lord. One more who said he should keep the Sabbath, still waits for a more favorable opening to obey the Lord. How dangerous to neglect to obey God and peril our eternal interests. May the goodness of God lead him to obey his commandments at once, with gratitude that the Lord has borne so long with him, prolonging his life and granting him so many comforts, that he may be a help to his wife in walking the narrow way. Three others hold on and are growing in the truth and grace of Christ. There are others who evidently are more or less convicted of the truth, and my prayer is that they may heartily embrace it and receive the blessing of God's approval in the midst of trials here, and be found among those that shall have right to the tree of life, entering in through the gates of pearl, to dwell forevermore. Rev. xxii, 14. We have stayed most of the time with Bro. Samuel Martin. He and family have made us as comfortable as we could wish to be temporarily, for which we are grateful. May they be recompensed at the resurrection of the just. Others have been very kind. The Lord bless them.
