JULY 1ST, 1941

BELOVED BROTHER, — I thank you for your letter, and count it a privilege to be able to pray for you in view of the Tribunal tomorrow. It is a very great comfort to see how the brothers have been helped on these occasions. And I cannot doubt that the effect of the testimony goes out much more widely than we think. And the opportunity of declaring publicly how we stand in relation to the Lord Jesus, as confessors of His Name, is truly an honour from God. I trust you will have a very distinct sense of support in answering any questions, and that the Lord may overrule all so that it may work out for His praise and for your gain. It is encouraging to think of the affectionate interest with which thousands of saints are concerned about those thus called upon to take up entirely new exercises. The Lord has not given such a universal spirit of prayer without meaning to give a very gracious answer to it, as you and many others will, I trust, fully prove....

With much love in the Lord to your dear wife and yourself,

Yours affectionately in Him,

July 1st, 1941.
