A New Believer’s Testimony
By J. M. Ferguson
Bro. Smith: Permit me to say a few words through the Review. It has been but a short time since I started in this cause; but by the aid and prayers of my companion, and good brethren around me, I have seen my naturally lost condition, and the speedy preparation that should immediately be made. I see that I ought to be up and doing while it is called to-day. I believe that God's word is truth. I believe that the ten commands are binding on all persons. I thank the Lord for sending his messengers, M. E. C. and M. H., this way two years ago to spread his truth. It was so plain my companion could not resist, although I did. I am now thankful to God that she did receive it with all her heart. I believe that all who resist this truth will not escape the plagues that shall soon fall upon the wicked. I am going to make every exertion to effect my escape and have a part in the first resurrection. I ask my brethren to remember me in their prayers; for I feel weak and unworthy. I remain yours seeking to be one of the hundred and forty four thousand that shall ascend to meet the dear Saviour at his coming. J. M. FERGUSON.
