“WrTH
patient
heart
thy
course
of
duty
ran,
God
nothing
does
nor
suffers
to
be
done,
But
thou
wouldst
do
thyself,
if
thou
couldst
only
see
The
end
of
all
he
does,
as
well
as
he,”
Ir
loving
hearts
were
never
longly,
If
all
they
wish
might
ever
be,
Accepting
what
they
look
for
only,
They
might
be
glad,
but
not
in
Thee.
We
need
as
much
the
cross
we
bear,
As
air
we
breathe—as
light
we
see;
It
draws
us
to
thy
side
in
prayer,
It
binds
us
to
our
strength
in
Thee.
—
Mrs.
Waring.

InN

But

Endless
peace

joy.”

THE
LAW
PROPERLY
UNDERSTOOD.
22.
Even
in
the
law,
if
the
people
had
only
understood
it,
they
could
have
seen
the
Christ,
the
Savior.
It
is
a
fact
that
there
is
not
one
attribute
that
the
Bible
gives
to
the
law
of
God,
but
what
is
also
inherent
in
Jesus
Christ.
He
was
simply
the
law
of
God
in
the
flesh*®
We
shall
now
consider
some
of
the
attributes
of
God’s
law,
and
compare
them
with
the
character
of
Christ.
Thus
we
shall
sce
that
if
the
law
of
God
were
only
rightly
understood
by
the
pecple
then,
by
their
successors
later,
and
even
by
the
people
of
the
present
day,
they
would
see
some
wonderful
light
and
revelation
in
the
life
and
character
of
Jesus
Christ.
David's
words
would
then
be
appreciated
:
*
How
love
I
Thy
law!
it
is
my
meditation
all
the
day.”

From
this
we
see
that
the
law
of
God
is
simply
an
expression
of
the
character
of
Jesus
Christ.
Hence
David
prophesied
of
Him,
through
the
Spirit:
“I
delight
to
do
Thy
will,
©
My
God:
yea,
Thy
law
is
within
My
heart.”

The
FIELD
VIRGINIA
CAMP-MEETING.
Tue
Virginia
Conference
and
an-
nual
camp-meeting
were
held
accord-
ing
to
appointment
August
8-18
at
Lynchburg
in
a
park
about
four
miles
from
the
city.
Although
the
distance
from
the
city
was
really
too
great,
yet
the
ground
being
at
the
terminal
of
the
electric
line,
the
meeting
was
largely
attended
by
the
people
of
the
city
from
the
first,
and
their
numbers
increased
to
its
close.
The
Virginia
Conference
is
small,
but
our
people
from
the
different
parts
of
the
State
were
numerically
well
rep-
resented
on
the
ground.
The
minis-
ters
in
the
conference
were
all
present,
Professor
Griggs
and
Professor
Neff,
Brother
S.
N.
Curtiss
and
the
writer
were
in
attendance
from
outside
the
conference.
We
were
much
disap-
pointed
in
not
having
Elders
S.
M,
Cobb
and
O.
O.
Farnsworth
with
us,
but
circumstances
were
such
in
their
home
conferences
that
it
was
not
con-
sistent
for
them
to
be
present.
The
third
angel’s
message
was
pre-
sented
straight
and
simple
to
the
gen-
eral
congregation,
as
it
was
presented
to
the
world
in
1844.
The
truths
were
thus
made
to
stand
out
in
clear
and
distinct
lines.
The
greatest
inter-
est
to
hear
was
at
the
breaking
up
of
the
encampment.
A
company
of
workers
were
left
to
follow
up
the
in-
terest
with
a
series
of
tent
meetings
and
house-to-house
Bible
work.
It
is
hoped
that
we
may
have
a
strong
church
of
Christian
Sabbath
reformers
established
in
Lynchburg
to
reflect
the
light
of
present
truth.
Much
practical
work
was
done
for
our
people,
which
was
responded
to
by
them.
At
the
close
of
the
morning
service
on
the
second
Sabbath
twenty
persons
presented
burial
with
Christ.
ber
of
these
were
young
people
just
entering
the
service
of
Christ.
None
themselves
