Purified by the Present Truth

From Sister Leadbeater.

DEAR BRO. WHITE:—I feel to thank and praise my Saviour that he has opened my eyes to the present truth. It seems plain that Jesus is beginning to reach out his arms to gather his people into one spirit and one faith; and it becomes us to keep pace with the unfolding truth of the blessed Bible.
I received my last paper yesterday, and was greatly strengthened and encouraged in reading so many interesting letters from the brethren scattered abroad. Truly, the Lord is at work, and blessed be his name. Although it is not my privilege to meet with them, yet it rejoices me very much to hear from them through the Review and Herald.
Dear brethren and sisters, having the hope we profess, let us purify ourselves even as he is pure. We should be following the Lord fully, as did Caleb and Joshua, and walking with him as did Enoch and Elijah. Holiness becometh thy house, O Lord. Without it we shall not see thee.
My prayer is, revive us, cheer us, strengthen us, and purify us, and save us at thy coming, and kingdom.
I approve very much of your idea of getting up a paper for the children. I hope God will enable you to be instrumental in his hands of doing much good to the household of faith. MARY LEADBEATER.
