The Salamanca Vision and the 1890 Diary

Salamanca, New York, Sabbath, November 1, 1890

The cold is very severe upon me. I shall attempt to speak but it will be with difficulty. We have the Congregational church. SVD 19.1

The Lord did indeed help and strengthen and bless me in speaking to the people, dwelling largely upon the necessity of faith and love for one another as followers of Christ, which has been almost extinct in our churches. The words spoken were heartily received, and the seed sown I sincerely believe will start a train of thought that will result in the cultivation of greater love and increased faith in the rich promises of God.—Ms. 44, 1890, pp. 2-3 (Diary 16, p. 285).
