MY DEAR BROTHER, I said nothing, less or more, in Bradford Church concerning the end of the world, neither concerning my own opinion. What I said was that Bengelius had given it as his opinion, not that the world would then end, but that the Millennial reign of Christ would begin in the year 1836. I have no opinion at all upon that head. I can determine nothing about it. These calculations are far above, out of my sight. I have only one thing to do, to save my own soul and those that hear me. I am, with kind love to Sister Hopper, Yours affectionately.","word_count":113,"source_url":null,"themes":["universal-redemption","christology","catholic-spirit"],"created_at":"2026-01-30T05:22:36.702099"}]}
