Encouragement in the Truth
By E. Chapman
DEAR BRO. WHITE:—It rejoices our hearts to hear from the brethren and sisters who are keeping the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. Dear brethren and sisters, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might: we shall soon reap if we faint not. A few more days and he that shall come will come and will not tarry. The signs our Saviour gave of his second coming are fulfilled and he is even at the door. O let us rejoice knowing that our redemption draweth nigh. Let us be faithful a little longer. Our Lord said, In the world ye shall have tribulation, but be of good cheer. I have overcome the world. If the Lord is for us who can be against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, will he not with him freely give us all things? We have nothing to fear: if we are faithful unto the end we shall receive a crown of life that fadeth not away. We have not heard a lecture since Bro. Waggoner was here a year ago last December. We should be glad if some of our traveling brethren would come this way. Our trust is in the Lord and he will never leave nor forsake those who put their trust in him. O let us rely on his promises, being assured that none of them can fail. Your sister in the Lord. E. CHAPMAN.
