O my beloved in the Lord, I now experience
how mightily, strongly and fatherly he preserves
those who trust in him, and seek nothing but his
glory; yea, what strength, consolation and joy he
gives them; and how ignominiously he permits
them to fall, who trust in men, and forsake and
deny him; so that they get a torturing conscience,
a sorrowful heart, and dreadful horror, yea, look for
nothing but eternal damnation and the pain of fire,
and expect to hear the terrible words: Depart from
me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire; for the face of
the Lord is against them that do evil. Matt. 25:41;
Ps. 34:16. Behold, therefore, my beloved wife in
the Lord, let us look unto Jesus the Finisher, how
he went before us into death, for our salvation; for,
behold, the crown of life is prepared for us; we shall
sit with him upon his throne; we shall be clothed
in white robes. Herewith I commend you unto the
crucified Christ for consolation and joy; that he
will keep you, satisfy you with his divine word, feed
you with the bread of life and of understanding, and
give you to drink the water of wisdom and the unadulterated
milk, from the fountain of life. May he
keep your soul unto salvation. Amen.
