![^4 ' sing-s th^t are held out to us, what the Lord is about to do for us, we ought to rejoice in the God of our salvation, and thank him for his mercies, in giving us warning, that he is coming to seek and to savea lost world, and to redeem us from the evils of the Fall, that we may not for ever lie under the bondage of sin and Satan. So we ought to rejoice the time is so near, that the chain is to be broken from all those who are now looking for the God of their salvation in heart and life. This is a comfort to every believer that these sorrows will not always last; but the un- believers have no prospect, because they do not know the days of their visitation ; therefore it is written, their hearts will fail them for very troubles, while the just will live by faith : and this hath been a great comfort to me, when my heart ached, ini 759 and 1800, to see the suffering poor, w’hom I had not power to relieve ; yet I rejoiced that the time was so near, that these evils would be done away, which sin is the cause of; and this ought to be the comfort of every believer. Taken'from Joanna Southcott’s mouth, by me, Witness, Jane Townley. Ann Underwood. In order to prove to the world that there is no deceit in Joanna Southcott's former writings, she has tauf'ht me to read her hand-writing : so that I have copied 'all the Communications in this book myself, which are taken from them.
