he felt all the hell in his precious soul and sacred body, which we had deserved, and he left nothing for us to do, but to believe and to take the comfort of it. And here it is we want much light, life, and power; that we may be able to receive this great work in such a way, as to produce peace, love, and joy. We want the heart persuaded into this truth; hence the Saviour said, Receive the truth, and the truth shall make you free. And these are some of the many precious truths we want power to receive—I have blotted out as a thick cloud thy transgressions. In the Lord shall thou be justified, and shall glory. Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love. Having begun the good work, he will finish it. I will never leave thee nor forsake thee. The Lord give my much loved friend power to take, receive, and enjoy these precious truths in her own soul. I am much melted into wonder, and gratitude, and praise, when I hear the Lord has ever blessed my poor message to any of his dear people, that he ever gave testimony to the word of his grace, by my feeble instrumentality—glory be to his name, he has made me manifest to your soul that he sent me to preach; and having experienced his love, you are enabled to prove it, by sympathising with me in my sorrows, and helping to comfort me in tribulation. May the dear Lord bring me back in the fulness of the blessings of the gospel of Christ, truly humbled in spirit, and with a heart and a mouth full of Christ, that I may yet praise him who is the health of my countenance, and my merciful God. Grace, mercy, and peace be your’s, in enjoyment and dependence, and God be glorified in your present and your eternal salvation.—I remain, Your affectionate and grateful Friend, _Ruhamah_. LETTER XLVII. _Achor’s Vale_, _March_ 5th, 1819. Mr. FRIMBLEY. MY DEAR SIR,
