The Twelve Spies and Conference Proceedings
By Editor
At the suggestion of Sister White we reprint in this issue a part of the chapter from “Patriarchs and Prophets,” entitled “The Twelve Spies.” This will be followed next week with the remainder of the chapter. This instruction should be read as having a special application to the present time, and the warnings and counsel should be applied to our own experiences. The fact that this instruction is suggested for present application increases our confidence that the time has come for us to go in and possess the land. O, let no one take a course which will turn this people back into the wilderness! Let us have faith in God, and go forward. We are informed by the secretary of the East Michigan Conference that a report of the proceedings of that conference was sent to the REVIEW some time ago. On learning that this report had not been received at this office, the secretary prepared and forwarded another, which appears in this issue. This will explain the delay in the publishing of the proceedings of this conference.
