 saw; he had been executed by men and was in heaven. Some I had never thought to meet in heaven, I saw. Others who were thought to have died innocent, I did not see.

The Lord said to me, “Go back and warn the people of my coming soon. If they spit in your face, say Amen; and I will be with you. Wonderful things will be done in the meetings at St. Louis. There will be a hard battle, but hold up my power; and sinners, make your peace with me before it is too late.”

We rejoice daily at the marvellous manifestations of the presence of God in our midst.

Yesterday two women were converted sitting in their seats, and got the witness of the Spirit, and knew they were born from above.

All that have had revelations while under the power bring
