Embracing the Third Angel’s Message
By R. J. Brown
Bro. Smith: I feel to praise the Lord for showing me the light of truth, and the glorious plan of salvation. The Bible is no longer a dark mystery to me, but a bright and shining light. It has been but a few months since I embraced the Third Angel's Message, under the preaching of Brn. Cornell and Lawrence. It found me in one of the Babylonish churches of this place; but when I heard the call I was willing to come out of her. I am determined to press my way on and upward to those mansions our Saviour has gone to prepare for those that love him and keep his commandments. O, this world seems of little account to me when I think of the joys that await the faithful. I am willing to suffer anything for Jesus' sake. I want to live near him and enjoy his approving smile every day, and know that my ways please him. I believe we are living in a solemn time, and that this is the last note of warning this world will ever receive. I am determined by the grace of God to hold out faithful till Jesus comes. Your sister, hoping to stand on Mt. Zion.
