Col. iii. 4. When Christ who is our life, shall appear then
shall ye also appear with him in glory.
Is. lx. 19.-21. The Lord shall be unto thee an everlasting
light, and thy God thy Glory. Thy sun shall no more go
down, neither shall thy moon withdraw itself.-Thy peo-
ple also shall be all righteous; they shall inherit the land
for ever.

are the temple of it.-For the glory of God did lighten it,
and the Lamb is the light thereof.

FROM

THE BEQUEST OF

EVERT JANSEN WENDELL

1918

THIS rare and excellent work need only to be read, in order to be admired by every lover of genuine piety.

The following recommendations have been cheerfully given by men, who it is well known by all acquainted with their characters, would not lend their names to recommend any work, unless it were highly deserving.

I have been requested to give my opinion about the propriety of reprinting a book, entitled, "Meditations representing a Glimpse of Glory, or a Gospel discovery of Emmanuel's Land, by Andrew Welwood." I am free to say that the truly spiritual and pious man in perusing this treatise, will find his affections elevated above the world, and his heart ravished with the glories of the heavenly country. A strain of piety and heart felt religion runs through the whole work.

The writer is evidently orthodox and generally accurate. Any inaccuracy of expression that may appear, ean be easily remidied if the book be reprinted. The author was a young man preparing for the ministry, but finished his course before he had an opportunity of preaching that gospel in which his soul delighted. He appears to have felt the full force of what he wrote, and being dead he yet speaketh.

JOHN BLACK, Pastor of the Reformed Presbyterian Church in Pittsburgh.

I cheerfully concur in the above recommendation of Welwood's Glimpse of Glory.

FRANCIS HERRON, Pastor of the 1st. Presbyterian Church in Pittsburgh.

I likewise concur in the same recommendation.

ROBERT BRUCE, P. A. C. P.

It will give me great pleasure to see the above work reprinted and widely circulated.

JOSEPH STOCKTON, A. M.

The above recommendations are cordially approved by ROBERT PATTERSON, A M. and

JOSEPH PATTERSON, V. D. M
