to strengthen every pin and pillar of the faith that was established by
the word of God and by the revelations of His Spirit.
The truth that God has given for His people in these last days
should keep them firm when there come into the church those who
present false theories. The truth that has stood firm against the attacks
of the enemy for more than half a century must still be the confidence
and comfort of God’s people.
Our evidence to nonprofessors that we have the truth of the word
of God will be given in a life of strict self-denial. We must not make a
mockery of our faith, but ever keep before us the example of Him who,
though He was the Prince of heaven, stooped to a life of self-denial
and sacrifice to vindicate the righteousness of His Father’s word. Let
us each resolve to do our best, that the light of our good works may
shine forth to the world.—
