From Bro. Kenyon.

BRO. SMITH: I feel that we are truly living in a grand and awful time. I have some serious reflections when I consider that we are drawing to the close of this world's history; that soon probation will end, our great High Priest will leave the Sanctuary, and he who is filthy will so remain, and he who is holy will be so still. I feel that I have much to overcome if I am ever counted worthy to stand on mount Zion with the 144000. But this is what I am striving for. I feel a strong determination to hold out to the end, that I may receive a crown of life at the appearing of Jesus.
The church here seems to be rising, and praise God, some are beginning to be free. We have had some blessed seasons of late in meeting together to worship God. We have begun to feel a little of the joys which are laid up for God's dear children.
O blessed hope I believe we shall soon receive what we so earnestly look for now. I feel like bringing all my tithes into the store-house of the Lord that I may get ready to stand in the battle in the day of the Lord.
May God grant that we may all stand to our post till Jesus comes. Amen.
