    Observers See It

    Observers have noted this aim. In the year of the great Pan-American Missions Conference at Panama, the leading Methodist organ, the New York Christian Advocate, said of the foreign mission aim of Seventh-day Adventists: “Small though the denomination ...is, it has its missionaries scattered through every region of the globe, working ...with a consummate skill that is systematically taught as a part of their regular training.”—Quoted in The Review and Herald, October 11, 1906.SPIAM 92.2

    Referring to statistics of new missionaries sent out, a Baptist organ spoke editorially: “The three largest non-Catholic denominational bodies in the United States, with seventy-two times as many members as the Adventists of the United States and Canada, are doing less altogether in foreign mission work (in some respects at least) than the Adventists are doing.”—Advance, June 30, 1927.SPIAM 92.3

    It sounds like appeal by exaggeration. But let it suffice. This is simply to allow others to say that this advent movement is a serious effort to carry the last gospel message to every nation, as the prophecy foretold.SPIAM 92.4
