The Review For 1903

The editors of the Review unite in expressing the hearty wish that all the members of the Review family may enjoy an ever-new and blessed experience in the Christian life during the year upon which we are just entering. This will certainly make it “A Happy New Year” for all.
In all the families where this paper is a weekly visitor, we shall try to make it contribute as much as possible toward the realization of this wish. We earnestly desire that it shall be a bearer of “good tidings of great joy” to all its readers.
We pledge our best endeavor to make the Review an exponent of the vital truths of this message, and an inspiration to a complete consecration of heart and life to the work of hastening the coming of the blessed Master.
We hope to make it so valuable to all those who love his appearing, and who have identified themselves with this great movement to give the advent message to all the world in this generation, that they will regard it as indispensable to the carrying out of their purpose to co-operate intelligently with other believers in this closing work.
The senior editor, Elder Uriah Smith, will contribute a series of articles, beginning at once, which will deal with the early experiences in this message. There are lessons in these experiences which need to be emphasized at this time when an effort is being made to revive the early advent faith. The spirit of unity, of consecration, and of self-sacrifice which filled the hearts of those who led out in the establishment of this work ought to be revived in the hearts of those who now bear the standard of truth. Elder Smith is one of the few men left in the ranks now who was associated with the pioneers in this message, and we believe that such a series of articles from his pen as is proposed will be an encouragement and a blessing to many advent believers of this day.
We enter upon the new year with hope and courage in the Lord. We are thankful for the many indications of the more rapid progress of this work, and we believe in times of refreshing just at hand. May the blessed Lord hasten the day.
