Appreciative Words

By F. W. Paap

In our desire to increase the circulation of the REVIEW, and to get it into the home of every family of Seventh-day Adventists, a personal letter was addressed to many thousands of our people. As a result of this, many new subscriptions are coming in, and many expressions of appreciation. We feel sure you will enjoy reading at least a few of these good words. The following are very brief, but represent quite generally, we believe, how this faithful pastor of the flock is regarded by the sheep of the fold:—
“I cannot see how any member of the church can get along without it.”
“As regards the REVIEW, it is meat and drink to my soul.”
“It helps me to keep pace with the message.”
“I wish I were able to tell you the worth of the REVIEW to me, but I cannot. It is our best paper.”
“The REVIEW helps me in my home, in all branches of my work.”
“To me the REVIEW is one of the essentials to spiritual growth. It keeps us all united in this world-wide work.”
“The REVIEW is everything to me. I have never heard a Seventh-day Adventist minister preach, but by reading the REVIEW I keep up.”
“I have read the REVIEW for forty years, and I could not do without it. It has been a great help and comfort to me.”
“I know I could not be a true Seventh-day Adventist long, nor could I teach the message, if I did not take the REVIEW.”
“I have been a subscriber for the REVIEW for over five years. I would not do without it. I would rather go hungry than do without the REVIEW.”
“The REVIEW is to me meat in due season. I look with longing for the day of its coming, and I do rejoice for thegood news of the rapid spread of this precious message.”
“DEAR BROTHER: Yours received. I am a subscriber to the REVIEW. I love to read the paper, though I am not a Seventh-day Adventist.”
“I have been twenty-six years in this message, and during that time I have been a constant reader of the REVIEW. I love it more and more. We shall need its help to enable us to stand the coming storm.”
“I certainly love the dear old REVIEW. It brings so much cheering news from all parts of the world. Its weekly visits are appreciated as those of a very dear friend.”
“Every Seventh-day Adventist ought to take this good paper, this voice of the message, into his home. Personally I cannot get along without it.”
“I love it. It cheers me on my way. It tells me Christ is soon to come in all his glory, and all the holy angels with him. Then my poor old limbs will not be tired any more. I am sixty years of age. I have taken the REVIEW for twenty-one years. I have walked over 20,000 miles selling our literature. Tramping through the snow and climbing the hills make me very tired at times.”
Are you a subscriber? Does every family in your church receive the benefits of this mighty unifying factor? Won’t you help to place the REVIEW in every family of Seventh-day Adventists?
