Keeping All the Commandments
By P. Robinson
Dear Brethren and Sisters: I am striving to keep all the commandments of God that I may enter that glorious city where all the care-worn, weary saints will find rest. My heart leaps for joy as I contemplate the reward of the finally faithful. O shall we not be willing to suffer the scorn of a wicked world? Shall we not be willing to be anything or nothing for Christ's sake, knowing if the world hate us, it hated him before it hated us? I think the brethren and sisters in this part of the State are trying to arise and gird on the armor, and prepare to meet the King when he comes. I feel to praise the Lord for the light of the Third Angel's Message, which I have been trying to heed since last October. I can truly say with David, How love I thy law? O let us lay all on the altar, self and all, and die a greater death to the world than we ever have done. If Christ should come and find us loving the world, would he say, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world? Let us endeavor to keep all the commandments, fearless of what mortals can say or do. We shall ere long enter into that rest that remains for the people of God. Your sister striving for the kingdom.
