A revelation from the Lord unto Jos [page damaged] AD 1829
Saying now behold a marvelous work is about to come among the [page damaged] children of men Therefore O ye that embark in the service of God see that ye serve him with all your heart might mind & strength that ye may stand blameless before God at the last day therefore if ye have desires to serve God ye are called to the work for behold the field is white already to harvest & lo he that trusteth in his sickle with his might the same layeth up his store that he perish not but bringeth Salvation to his soul & faith hope charity & love with an eye single to the glory of God constitutes him for the work remember temperance patience humility diligence.
Ask & ye shall receive knock & it shall be opened unto you
Amen
