L. M. EATON

From Sister Eaton.

BRO. SMITH: As others are giving in their testimony for the truth, I feel that I want to add mine with theirs, to let those brethren who labored in Milford know that their labor has not been in vain in the Lord. We are a little band who meet for worship every Sabbath, and feel that the promises of our High Priest are fulfilled to us, that where two or three are gathered in his name there he is in the midst. We are striving together for that inheritance promised to the faithful. Although taunted with cries of Millerism, yet we bless God for the doctrine of the Bible which makes our hearts burn within us. There is a joy in believing the truth as it is in Jesus.
It is but a short time since I embraced the doctrine of the Bible, always having believed in the eternal torment of the wicked. I had never given my attention to the subject until Bro. Frisbie and Lawrence came here. I went to hear, became interested, and gave up my predetermined opinion, and by the help of the Lord, concluded it was better to fear God and keep his commandments than to obey men. In doing this I have not denied my faith, but have added more to my faith. Lord, send forth thy truth with power, is my prayer.
Your unworthy sister striving to overcome.
