My Confession

"This is my Confession before I die" he wrote. "It lies on me as a duty to make known to you the gift of God "to spread His blessed Name everywhere confidently and without fear, so that even after my death I may leave a legacy to my brethren and my sons whom I have baptised in the Lord, many thousands of them.... There is no other God' but God the Father, without beginning, to Whom all things belong; and Jesus Christ, His only Son, Whom we declare to have always existed with the Father before the beginning of the world, having been begotten of the Father ineffably after the manner of a spirit. Who was made Man, and having overcome death was received s Man into Heaven by the Father.

And we look to Him to come again as the Judge of the living and the dead. And He hath poured out on us abundantly the Holy Ghost, the gift and pledge of immortality, Who maketh us to be sons of the living God and joint-heirs with Christ—one only God in the Trinity of the Sacred Name, to Whom be glory for aver and ever, Amen."
