SLOTH AND DESPONDENCY ACCOMPLISH, NOTHING.
By P. T. Magan
Sloth and despondency accomplish nothing, is a sentence in the preceding article from the pen of Sister White, and in the Bible we are told to be “not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord.” Moses believed that God had a hand in the smallest details and experiences of life, and every man who would be a Moses in belief and experience must believe the same. Seventh-day Adventists have only one reason for an existence,— to tell the people that Christ is coming again, by our lives, by our testimonies, by Bible readings, and missionary visits. By prayers, by gifts, by sacrifices, by faithful, holy, and never-ceasing service in all these things we must push the battle to the gate. Our institutions are in peril. If they fail and go into bankruptcy, the name of God will be dishonored. Come along, brethren, let us come up to the help of the Lord against the mighty. P. T. Magan.
