in The Messenger of Peace (Oct. 1896)
[W]HEN GOD’S SPIRIT COMES to the man then all is changed. His self satisfaction departs in the presence and voice of God, and while despising himself none the less, he sees the vileness of that influence which led him from rectitude and into disobedience and disregard of God’s laws and hates it. This is the first evidence to a soul that the Lord has come in presence and power to bless and cleanse, that there is hatred for sin. |
