By Helen Chamberlain

From Sr. Chamberlain.

Bro. Smith: It is now nearly a year since I commenced keeping the Sabbath of the Lord; for by searching the Scriptures I could not find truth to sustain Sunday-keeping. I now rejoice that I ever heard the Third Angel's Message; yet by observing it, I have had to leave a nominal church, and come out from the world and be separate. I do not regret it. I love the blessed hope and glorious appearing of the Saviour. I want to be one among that number that shall stand upon mount Zion, to sing the song of Moses and the Lamb. I believe the saints are soon to take the kingdom and possess it under the whole heaven.

It appears evident that the testimony to the Laodiceans applies to those who profess the Third Angel's Message. O may we one and all arouse from our drowsy slumbers, and buy gold tried in the fire, white raiment that we may be clothed, and annoint our eyes with eye-salve that we may see, and consecrate ourselves wholly to the Lord and his service, that we may be prepared when he shall come, to say Lo, this is our God, we have waited for him.

Yours in hope of eternal life.
