Standing Firm in the Third Angel’s Message
Sister O. A. Wheeler writes from Lowell, Mass.: "It is nearly five years since my views became in accordance with the doctrines advocated by the Review; and notwithstanding all the confusion that has been abroad in consequence of opposition, I have seen no cause to change. And I would ask, Who, that has had the understanding enlightened by the Spirit of God to discern the perfect harmony in the three angels' messages, and that has felt the power and spirit of the Third Angel's Message, can deny its being a work of the Lord, and put the Third Angel's Message in the future, and advocate the Age-to-Come doctrine? But I would not be uncharitable, but consider that our heavenly Father knows all the temptations that his children have to endure, and I trust he will save his honest ones, but yet I desire, if I have any influence, that it may be turned upon the side of truth. "I have been much comforted, and sometimes shed tears of gratitude, while reading communications from the dear brethren and sisters in the Review; and as I am (as I suppose) nearly alone in this city, trying to keep the Sabbath, I think I should receive it with double gratitude."
