A Young Sabbath Keeper’s Testimony

From Bro. Rust.

BRO. WHITE : I feel as though I would like to add my feeble testimony to the truth. I have been reading the Review, which my brother takes, also a number of small books, which have given me much comfort and satisfaction, and great light on the subject of religion. I feel that we are living in perilous times, and need to have our lamps trimmed and burning. I have been trying to live a Christian for four or five years; but since I have been keeping the Sabbath of the Lord for about five weeks, I have received more light and happiness than ever before, though I am only about sixteen years of age, and live in a new country where there are no meetings nor Sabbath-schools, I hope by the grace of God to become a true saint, that I may abide the day of the coming of our Saviour.
I never heard any Sabbath-keeper preach. There are but four in this place who keep the Sabbath; my mother, brother, sister-in-law, and myself. My father has been dead about two years. My mother and I have searched the Scriptures to see if these things were so. We feel that this is the only true and acceptable way. May the Lord direct and overrule all things for our good and his glory.
Yours striving to overcome. Emory G. Rust. Winfield, Mich.
