To the Presiding Elder and Members
of the Denver District Conference:
The subject that has been assigned
10 me is one which | consider to be of
vital Importance, as it pertains to our
Christian life. The Christian is com
manded by the great Teacher to let
his light shine before men that his
good works may be seen and his
Father in heaven glorified. The Bible
affords general rules Of duty in all the
ordinary circumstances Of life nor
can we easily conceive of any situa-
ton in which Christian can be
placed where the lamp Of revelation
sheds no radiance upon his path. The
path of the just is as the shining light
that shineth more and more unto the
perfect day he who walks in the light
