DEAR TOMMY, So you have reason to acknowledge that God has not forgotten to be gracious. If you can build preaching-houses without increasing the General Debt, it is well; but otherwise it will eat us up. But I have no more to do with these matters. I have appointed a Building Committee, and shall leave to them everything pertaining to building for the time to come. In all these parts of the kingdom there is a fair measure of the work of God. There will be so everywhere if the preachers are holy and zealous men. I am, dear Tommy, Your affectionate friend and brother.","word_count":112,"source_url":null,"themes":["free-will","reign-of-god","trinity"],"created_at":"2026-01-30T05:25:53.300246"}]}
