Oneness of Spirit

IN his prayer, as recorded in the seventeenth chapter of John, our Saviour prays that his disciples might be one, even as he and his Father were one. This spirit of oneness is seen among the people connected with this movement. Wherever we go among Seventh-day Adventists we see manifested the same spirit of hope and faith and activity. This is emphasized in a recent letter received from Elder A. G. Daniells. Speaking of the general meetings he has been attending in Europe, he says:—

“We are having good meetings, and it is surely a great pleasure to meet these people in these different countries who have embraced the message that is so dear to us. There is no question that the message is doing exactly for them what it has for us who have had it so long in America. It transforms all people, of every nationality, just the same. It puts a certain stamp upon them which is perfectly plain to those who know it. I have now met our people in Germany, Belgium, German and French Switzerland, and France, besides England, and they are all exactly alike. Their complexion, language, and national characteristics differ widely, yet in spirit and soul they are exactly alike. This is a marvelous thing; it shows that the message speaks the same thing to every heart and does the same molding, transforming, regenerating work in all.”
