WM. BELLAMY

By Wm. Bellamy

From Bro. Bellamy.

Bro. WHITE: For the first time I try to contribute a few lines to the pages of the Review as I many times have been encouraged by reading the cheering letters from brethren and sisters scattered abroad. I am striving to be an overcomer through the blood of the Lamb and the word of my testimony. I am glad that the Lord ever permitted me to hear the sound of the third angel’s message and gave me a willing heart to turn my feet into his testimonies. Once his word was all a dark mystery to me. Now it is a glorious lamp to my feet and light to my path. I am trying to let its sacred truths have a sanctifying effect upon my daily walk and conversation.
A few of us in this place are striving to go forward having union for our strength, love for our banner, and eternal life for our motto, while our watchword is, The commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
Our hearts beat in unison with those in the third message: for we believe that the Lord is leading out a people zealous of good works and preparing them for translation. We want to go with the remnant to the kingdom.
We are satisfied that we are living in a very important period of the world’s history, and we believe also, that we are living in the time when the last state of the church is being manifested. How important then it is that we heed fully the counsel of the faithful and true Witness.
We have been striving to arise and come up to the help of the Lord, and, bless his holy name, we have had a refreshing season. The Lord has poured out his Spirit upon us and every soul has been encouraged to persevere. Pray for us that we may stand fast in the faith, and that there be no divisions among us.
