Sabbath Meetings
101
One brother said that when he listened to the sermon impressing
upon them the necessity of purity and perfection of character, he felt
that he could not be saved; that his case was hopeless. But when it
was stated that sanctification was not the work of a moment, but of a
lifetime, he was encouraged, and determined that day by day he would
pray and watch, and search the Scriptures; he would be an overcomer,
gaining an experience daily, until he should become strong, and be
able to be a blessing to others. With many tears, some expressed their
gratitude for the interest the American brethren had taken in them in
this far-off country.
