The word of the Lord in this though violently opposed by the Priests of the day and their adherents, has assumed a position, that astonishes while it alarms the minds of many— Individuals of a highly repectable sphere are beginning to be interested, and to join the Church, and while many cry delusion, fanaticism, madness, &c— it is manifest to friend and foe, that the Saints have “a method in their madness”— that inspired them with a go-a-head principle that no power can stay
In conclusion I pray that the Lord God may preserve you and deliver you from the hands of your enemies, and enable you finish the work he has give you to do in all faithfulness to him and honour to yourself
Amen
