ALEX. ROSS

By Alex. Ross.

From Bro. Ross.

Bro. Smith:—I would esteem it a privilege to say through the Review to the dear saints scattered abroad, that I believe it to be of the utmost importance to give good heed to the testimony of the faithful and true Witness, to be zealous and repent of all our errors and wrongs, that they may go beforehand to judgment, lest we be finally weighed in the balance and found wanting.

In looking over my past experience I find I have been a poor erring creature, and a very unprofitable servant; and ere I was aware I found myself miserable, blind, and wretched. One great cause of my present lukewarmness has grown out of unwisely giving heed to peculiar impressions and dreams, which I am fully persuaded are not from the right source. I do therefore lay them entirely aside; and humbly ask pardon of my brethren who have been grieved, or in any manner been deceived or led astray by me or my wrong influence. My prayer to the Lord is, that he will pardon and lead me in the right way, that I may with the saints have life, eternal life, in the kingdom of God. Pray for me that I may escape the snares that are set around me.

Yours in hope.
