Aggressive Work Begins in Indianapolis
By Arthur W. Bartlett
INDIANAPOLIS.—I have been called by the Lord, through the Indiana Conference, to serve as pastor of this church, and to do aggressive work in this vicinity. The church is composed of about two hundred members. We have begun a series of meetings in West Indianapolis, preaching every night, in a large and commodious store room. We have had an encouraging attendance and interest. Brother Vince is rendering valuable assistance in this work. Desiring greatly to present the message to the twenty-five thousand colored persons of this city, we have obtained, through a sister here, an invitation by one of the leading colored preachers to speak in his church, on condition that we will not say anything about the seventh day. I am glad that I can preach the Sabbath just as powerfully by preaching the Lord of the Sabbath, as I could by directly naming the day. Therefore we will preach the Sabbath to our colored brethren by preaching Christ, and by manifesting Christ in our lives. Only those who have the imparted righteousness of Christ, and who wear that wedding robe all the time, are keepers of the Sabbath. I am of good courage. ARTHUR W. BARTLETT.
