Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Affectionate Farewell Address to Friends in North America Dear Friends, Being about to return to my native land, I believe it will contribute to my peace, if I salute you in this way, and express a little of those feelings with which I have been often seriously impressed during my sojourning amongst you. Although I have traveled about five thousand miles, and attended a great many meetings in America, there are many settlements of friends, and probably thousands who are members of our religious society, where it has not been within the limits of my concern to go, and whose faces, of course, I have never seen. Notwithstanding these circumstances, I have known no bounds to my solicitude and frequent, earnest desire, that, however my dear Brethren may be outwardly scattered over this vast continent, they may be all built on the one only true foundation, and inwardly gathered to the one Shepherd, and into the one only true sheepfold; that so, as a people, we may continue to be one indiscipline, in faith, and doctrine; harmoniously labouring together, that the pure testimonies of truth maintained by our worthy predecessors, may be handed down unsullied to posterity; that so, ages to come and generations yet unborn, may be encouraged to build on the same sure foundation, Christ Jesus, the eternal rock of ages; who by the inward revelation of his power, can and will, as we are obedient, and as far as is needful for us in the way and work of salvation, unfold, from time to time, the mysterious operation of his redeeming love and power. My mind hath been often deeply tried while my lot hath been cast in this land, under the painful consideration, that there are many in our day, who are soaring with airy notions far above the simplicity of the truth as it is in Jesus, and who are endeavouring to climb up some other way than that in which the way-faring men though fools (as to this world´s wisdom) shall not err.
