To all those that fear not the sudden appearing of JESUS CHRIST.

BRETHREN,

IT is a great pleasure to the only true Church of Christ, to see so great a progress, in not only re-printing but also putting in print what never was before, things of the highest eternal consequences to the seed of faith, at a vast expence. It is surprising how it is so far accomplished, considering what a handful we are, and how few of that handful have substance sufficient to support so great an undertaking. Notwithstanding all this, love hath carried on the work, insomuch, that within these seven years, we have printed, besides this, The Interpretation of the Eleventh Chapter of the Revelations, The Divine Appendix, The Soul's Mortality, The Answer to William Penn, the volume of Spiritual Epistles, [never printed before], The Transcendent Spiritual Treatise, The Looking-Glass for George Fox, and The Neck of the Quakers Broken.

So there is nothing now scarce, except The Acts, and The Divine Looking Glass. And if we are preserved in the same love and harmony we are in at present, their printing will soon be effected also. For no other way can we serve God, than by making The Third Record on Earth public to his friend, the captive seed of faith. For a candle is not lighted to be put under a bushel; and what is done to his seed, he accounts it as done to himself.

So wishing love may increase in the Church, as without that no heavenly virtue can inhabit the soul, I subscribe myself an unmoveable believer of these glorious truths, which will remain unshaken to eternity.

JOHN PEAT.
