Bro. Smith

From Bro. Brown.

BRO. SMITH:—I feel to praise the Lord that he has opened my eyes in these last days to let me see, and not only me, but my companion and daughter the truth of the Third Angel's Message. The Lord is calling out a people to stand before him at his coming; and the dragon is wroth with them for keeping the Commandments and having the Faith of Jesus; but Satan with all his hosts cannot hinder them, for Christ is their leader and Israel will surely prevail.
They are going forward in the strength of the Lord. He is the hope of his people, and they will come off conquerors through him who has died to redeem them and is alive forevermore.
We feel determined to press our way on towards the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. We have come out before the world and profess to keep all the Commandments of God, and the Testimony of Jesus—the law and the gospel. It is a perfect work: it will prepare a people to enter in through the gates into the city.
I feel to praise the Lord for what he is doing for his people in this place. There are six of us, Sabbath-keepers here. Five commenced to keep the Sabbath last Fall; we have Bro. Daniels to preach to us occasionally. Bro. Barr was with us a few days in the Winter.
