Meeting Days.
That is a creeping spirit that would go to alter the usual and constant meeting days under pretence to prevent people from the corruptions of observing a constant day.
(Works, VIII., p. 81.)
To all the Children of God in all Places in the World.
Keep all your meetings in the name of the Lord Jesus that be gathered in his name by his light, grace, truth, power and spirit, by which you will feel his blessed and refreshing presence among you, and in you to your comfort and God’s glory.
And now all friends, all your meetings, you do know that you have felt both His power and spirit and wisdom and blessed refreshing presence among you and in you to his praise and glory and your comfort so that you have been a city set on a hill that cannot be hid.
And although many loose and unruly spirits have risen betimes to oppose you and them both in print and other ways, but you have seen how they have come to nought.
And therefore all to stand steadfast in Christ Jesus your head, in whom you are all one, male and female and knoweth his government, and the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end.
And let no man live to self, but to the Lord, as they will die in him and seek the peace of the church of Christ, and the peace of all men in him, for blessed are the peacemakers. And dwell in the pure peaceable heavenly wisdom of God that is gentle and easy to be entreated, that is full of mercy; all striving to be of one mind, heart, soul and judgment in Christ, having his mind and spirit dwelling in you, building up one another in the love of God.
And Christ is not divided, for in him there is peace. Christ saith, in me you have peace and he is from above and not of this world. But in the world below, in the spirit of it there is trouble. Therefore keep in Christ and walk in him. Amen.
