"Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another"

From Bro. Colvin.

I PRAISE the Lord that he ever caused me to see the present truth. I firmly believe that the Sabbath of the fourth commandment is, and will be a testing truth while time lasts, and that all of God's chosen people will soon become one in faith and practice. I believe that the kingdoms of this world are by the gift of the Father already become the kingdoms of Jesus; that Christ will soon leave the Most Holy Place in which he now ministers for the justification of his people. I am looking for the wrath of God to be poured out upon the wicked and rebellious of this world, in the seven last plagues mentioned in Revelation xvi.
The nations are angry, men have invented and are inventing and bringing into use weapons of the most destructive nature, calculated to destroy men by scores and thousands. But while wickedness reigns in most every form, and a fallen church are trying to palm off for truth the commandments of men, and are defacing the truth of God in various ways, God has got a people that are waiting for Christ's second advent, and are keeping the Commandments of God, and the Faith of Jesus; and are holding up to view the last message of mercy to a guilty and fallen world; that men may seek pardon for breaking God's holy law, have faith in Christ, and be saved when he shall appear.
I believe the work is of God and will succeed. The cause is rising. Praise the Lord!
B. F. COLVIN.
