Excerpt from Periodical Accounts, Vol. 6: Relating to the Missions of the Church of the United Brethren, Established Among the HeathenIn 1765 my master died, and'i obtained leave to move to Herrnhut. My joy on coming to live in a settlement of the Brethren was inexpressibly great; and in the beginning I eu joyed a great share of happiness, through the mercy of my Saviour. But not yet knowing myself, though I admired the order and excellent regulations among the Brethren, I did not feel the necessity of strict attention to my own heart, and daily dependance upon the strength and grace of our Saviour. In the same year, I was received into the congregation; and March 19, 1766, became a partaker of the Lord's Supper. What I experienced on this solemn occasion, no tongue can tell. I again devoted myselfto my crucified Redeemer with my whole heart, and He graciously gave me to know that He had entered into a covenant with me, which amidst all subsequent deviations and unfaithfulness on my part, he has kept unbroken. The Holy Spirit always reminded me of the promise I then made, to live, not unto myself, but unto Him in the world, and to abide faithfully cleaving to Him.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

If anything in us appears Unlike to Jesus' mind, To own it with repenting tears, Ah, may we be inclin'd. 4. A child of God for ever pants More like his Lord to be; Tho' with conviction still he grants, That none is good but He. 6. Oft as in spirit Christ he views, This is his humble cry, Which he continually renews: "As thou wast, O were I! 6. ' Whate'er is carnal, through thy In me be mortified; (grace Thus, clothed in thy righteousness, I shall in thee abide." LouUa v. Hayn. 473. T. 185. HE who striveth for sanctification, But is unrenew'd in heart, Feeling yet a secret condemnation, Since with sin he still takes part; He who hath not yet in Christ be-lieved, Pardon in his blood, and peace re-ceived; Hath not found that holiness Which adorns a child of grace. 2. But how happy is the sonl that cleaveth To the Friend of sinners poor; And with "humble confidence believeth, My diseases he con cure: While with shame confessing, that by nature He throughout is a corrupted creature, By the blood of Christ applied, He is clcans'd and sanctified.

Not illustrated. 1842 Excerpt: ...Lord comes from on high, Watch in prayer and ne'er be weary, But await the midnight cry: Haste to meet him,:f; Lo, the Bridegroom draweth nigh. 6 On that day of consummation May we sinners mercy find, Saved with complete salvation, And not one be left behind; As wise virgins:f: May we then before thee stand. DRAW nigh to Christ your broiher, Let no distrust take place; He 's lovely ns none other, Draw nigh, receive the grace Which flows from his humanity, To all who with full purpose Like Jesus aim to be. 2 He's yours with all his merit, If you are truly his, And thus become spirit With him who holy is; Who spirit, soul, and body heals, And is that kind physician Who for his patients feels. 3 Whoe'er this truth belreveth, With love to Jesus burns; But none its power perceiveth Until to Christ he turns: O blessed Jesus, grant us grace To grow into thy likeness, And live unto thy praise. 4 Dear Jesus, grant this my request, Be thou my everlasting rest, Protect me by thy saving arm, Secure my soul from every harm. 571 T. 102.

Excerpt from Periodical Accounts Relating to the Missions of the Church of the United Brethren, Vol. 4: Established Among the Heathen We knew nothing of these horrible events, until the evening of the 16th, when a message was brought, that the savages had burnt an Old woman alive, called Caritas, who was baptized by the Brethren in former times, and had frequently visited Bethlehem; and also that our poor JO shua was kept close prisoner. Words are not able to ex press our horror and grief on hearing this account. Though we were told, that perhaps Joshua would not be killed, we were seized with such terror, that we could neither eat, drink, or sleep, and by day and night were overwhelmed with grief; for we could not trust the superstitious and en raged Indians, and well knew the Violence of their hatred against all believers.
