love for our fellow men, evinces love to God. We may make a high
profession, yet without this love it is nothing. Our faith may lead
us to even give our bodies to be burned, yet without self-sacrificing
love, such as lived in the bosom of Jesus and was exemplified in His
life, we are as sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal.
There are families that receive spiritual strength by moving to
Battle Creek. It is just the place to help some, while it is the wrong
place for others. Brother and Sister A are a sample of the class who
may be benefited in moving to this place. The Lord directed them
to take this course. Battle Creek was just the place to benefit them,
and has proved a blessing to the entire family. They have, in coming
here, gained strength to plant their feet firmly upon the platform of
truth, and if they continue in the path of humble obedience they may
rejoice for the help they have received in Battle Creek.
