Since the meeting held in Grand Rapids in November, I have been working with the book “Christ’s Object Lessons,” and I never engaged in any work that has brought more of the blessing of God. The Testimony says that we should take hold of that work now, and that the angels will go with us. A power goes with the one who carries those books. Brethren and sisters, if you want better success in your work, take hold as the Lord has said, and victory will be yours.
As I have read to the people some of the precious truths the book contains, they have said, We want one of those books. Many a heart has been touched while I have talked about the blessing in selling this book. One woman became interested in reading it, and sent word for me to come and give her a Bible reading on the Sabbath question. I did so, and she was convinced of the truth. A young man bought a copy of the book, read it half through, and then returned it. Two days later he came to my house, and with tears said, “I want that book again.” He is now rejoicing in the truth.
I called at a place where I had been holding readings, expecting to sell one of these books, and found that a friend in Battle Creek had sent this woman one. She is using it in the Sunday-school, and others have become interested. One man asked her where he could get one of them, and she referred him to me. This book is doing a grand work in removing prejudice.
If all will take hold of this work, they will become more spiritual, more Christlike. The Lord has enabled me to circulate two hundred copies. My courage in the message was never better than at this time.
