My dear Brother

I had waited hoping to speak decidedly about my presence with you; but I cannot yet say more than that I desire it much if the Lord make the way. Anyhow I pray that the meeting may be specially blessed. A few disaffected souls who are filled with a spirit of the wildest suspicion & very little balanced on the great foundations of truth are now agitating zealously in all directions; but I look for growth & deepening for all who hold fast & cleave not to a traditional measure of knowledge but to the fresh working of the Holy Ghost through the divine Word. Those who are not so walking must drop {?} off from the testimony; for their heart is untrue to their position & God’s objects in calling us into it.

Whether I can be with you or not, I pray the Lord greatly to cheer you all & to give firmness in opposing the present readiness of the least taught to set themselves up in a fancied infallibility which deals censoriously with those to whom they are most indebted.

Yours ever Affectionately in Christ

W. Kelly
