For this cause, I Paul the _prisoner_ of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles, if ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God, which is given me to you ward. How that by _revelation_ he _made_ _known_ unto me the mystery (as I wrote afore _in_ _few_ _words_, _whereby_, _when_ _ye_ _read_, _ye_ _may_ _understand_ my knowledge in _the_ _mystery_ of Christ) _which_ in other ages _was_ not _made_ _known_ _unto_ _the_ _sons_ of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy Apostles and Prophets by the Spirit, that the Gentiles should be _fellow-heirs_, and _of_ the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ, by the Gospel whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the _grace_ of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power. Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: to the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly] It was but one of many, and you can imagine how difficult I found it to continue with the service and put the subject from my mind till the funeral was over and I could return to solitude and my third and final examination into the meaning of this mysterious gift. You can also imagine my wonder when by following out the plan I have indicated, the subjoined sentences appeared, which, if somewhat incoherent at times--as could only be expected from the limited means at his command--certainly convey a decided meaning, especially after receiving the punctuation and capital letters, which, after long study and some after-knowledge of affairs, I have ventured upon giving them: "My sin is ever before me. "Correct, lest thou bring me to nothing. "Do those things which are requisite and necessary for a pure and humble one, Grace by name, begotten by son, he born of first wife and not obedient to the law abroad, a prisoner. "Revelation made known in few words whereby when ye read ye may understand the mystery which was made known unto the sons, fellow-heirs of Grace. "Go and search diligently for the young child. "The higher powers resist and are a terror to good works. "Do that which is good and thou shalt have praise, minister of God. "Wherefore ye must needs be subject for wrath, for they are attending continually upon this thing. "Render therefore to all their dues; tribute to whom tribute; honor to whom honor. "Two possessed of devils, exceeding fierce of the household, hope Grace may evermore be cast away. "They murmur against the good man of the house, and do not agree to mercifully defend against perils in the city an honest and good heart. "My will leave(s) heritage to Grace. "The devil is against me. "Behold a woman grievously vexed with lost sheep of the house.
