“Beloved in our dearest Lord, Christ, the Scripture, your own hearts, and Satan’s
devices, are the four prime things that should be first and most studied and searched.

If any cast off the study of these, they cannot be safe here, nor happy hereafter.

It is my work as a Christian, but much more as I am a Watchman, to do my best to
discover the fullness of Christ, the emptiness of the creature, and the snares of
the great deceiver.”
