Woodhull, N. Y.

By John Lindsey; S. A. H. Lindsey

SINCE our meetings in this place last summer, two families have commenced keeping the Sabbath of the Lord. Jan. 26 to 30, held meetings here again, and presented the claims of the moral law, showing its connection with prophecy, especially the third angel’s message. Our meetings were solemn and interesting. Several are carefully investigating; among them, an Adventist minister who appears to be very honest and candid.

As we were about to leave, we received a challenge for discussion from a preacher near Woodhull village. His position is, that the law of the Lord has been abolished. We did not reject his challenge lest he should boast. We did not engage to discuss with him, because we were desirous of first conferring with those of experience in this kind of labor.

The Lord is evidently at work here. His Spirit is moving the hearts of some, to take hold of the whole truth. Many profess to be looking for the Saviour’s coming; they feel the need of a speedy preparation, and are seeking for light. May the Lord grant them this one of his most precious blessings, a willing heart to receive and obey it.
