Yes, dear children, behold what beautiful promises
are given to those who overcome. Hence, fear
not men, who can afflict us here for a short time
only; for after this tribulation we shall rest from all
our labors, under the altar, with those who were
also slain for the word of God, and shall appear
with many thousand saints, clothed with white
robes, and palms in their hands, crying with a loud
voice, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the
throne, and the Lamb. They shall hunger no more,
neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light
on them, nor any heat; for the Lord will be their
light, and shall wipe away all tears from their eyes;
and there shall be no night there; and they shall
need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the
Lord God shall give them light, and they shall
reign forever and ever. Rev. 14:13; 6:9; 7:9,10,16,17;
22:5.

Therefore, dear children, lay this to heart; look
to these beautiful promises given to them that overcome,
and not to those who apostatize, for these
are written in the earth. Rev. 2:7; Jer. 17:13.
Hence, dear children, see that you fear the Lord,
while he gives you time; for he shall come when it
is not expected. Watch therefore, and wait for his
coming. Is. 55:6; Matt. 25:13.

This is the testament I leave you. Written at
Antwerp, in prison, where I was confined for the
testimony of Jesus. By me, your father,

LENAERT PLOVIER.
