_OBSERVATION._
It is not doubtful, (_as it is a common method in this world_,) that
my life, and all what is contained therein, will be contradicted and
criticised; but as it hath pleased GOD to reveal unto me the mystery
of the way of the truth, (_of which I hope I am not ignorant_;)
therefore I expect persecutions, contradictions, and criticism to take
place; knowing, that whosoever will live according to the Gospel of
CHRIST, must while in this vale of tears go through much sufferings
and pains: for thus is the road that leads to everlasting happiness.
Therefore let every true born soul know, that as our SAVIOUR suffered
for us: so must we in return for the blessing of Redemption, suffer
for his sake, _for unto us it is given, in the behalf of CHRIST, not
only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake. phi. chap. 1.
ver. 29_. I therefore leave to the public to say what they please of
this book; but the GOD in whom I have trusted shall be the judge of
it.
Finally, the decisive day of our LORD, will put a determination to all
our works, whether they be acceptable, or not.
