Pressing Onward in the Truth
By M. G. Bartlett
BRO. SMITH: Good is the word of the Lord, and how great will be the reward of those servants who are found giving meat to God's household, proclaiming in due season to the scattered flock the truth as it is in Christ! How satisfying it is to the hungry soul! I have been privileged with the Review almost eight years, and have never had reason to regret that I became acquainted with its teachings. They were applied to my heart as truth when I was seeking and saying "O where can truth be found?" I have not found it in creeds of different denominations; but by searching the word of God I have found that truth is mighty and will prevail. I feel that my delight is in God, and in doing his will, and I feel comforted by his promises. He has said that in the world we should have tribulation, but in him we might have peace. I find it hard to brave the current unless I have on the whole armor; but I do not feel like looking back, for the prize is ahead, and this is my watchword, Onward! I believe that Christ's coming is near, and mean to be of that number who will get the victory over the beast, and over his mark, and the number of his name. Praise the Lord, victory will be on Zion's side. Yours in love of the truth, M. G. BARTLETT.
