Hope in God’s Invitation
By K. S. Pettibone
DEAR BRO. WHITE:—The Review I read with interest and comfort. The subjects therein treated are subjects that will bear criticism, being sustained by the word of Inspiration. The signs of the times, the scenes of the earth as they are unfolding and being developed by the nations of the earth, doubly confirm the truths of Inspiration, and loudly calls on man to turn to God and seek salvation, immortality, eternal life. But will they take heed. They have been enjoying the mercy of God long. Will the judgment, famine, sword, or pestilence awaken? No. But God will receive all that come to him. This invitation inspires me with hope and confidence, and begets within me an earnest of my inheritance. Yours truly, K. S. PETTIBONE. Grand Rapids, Mich., Apr. 23d, 1854.
