The Sufficiency of God’s Promises
By J. M. Lenhart
Bro. Smith: For the first time I take up my pen to address to you a few lines. I thank God through Jesus Christ that I ever heard the truth of the Bible. I thank him that the scales of tradition have fallen from my eyes, and by grace divine I can see the truth as it is in Christ Jesus my Lord. There are four of us here that keep the Commandments of God and the Faith of Jesus. I am not discouraged, for I know that the means which God has provided for my journey are sufficient to carry me through if I only lawfully use them. It is the obedient and the believing that will go through; but the doubtful and unbelieving never. They distrust the promises of God. They place themselves in an attitude that God cannot impart unto them spiritual strength. May God deliver us from unbelief, and keep us by his power through faith unto salvation, is my prayer.
