Show moreKirkland 9a John Thornton to Samuel Kirkland London, 27th August, 1770 Dear and Reverend Sir - I must now thank you for your letters of the 15th February, and 30th May. I congratulate you on the further light with which you now read the latter part of the last chapter of Proverbs. May the Lord prosper you more and more continually It is very grievous that any misunderstanding should arise between you and Dr. Wheelock . The Enemy has done this, and indeed it must be fine sport to him. What is man? We all expect too much and look more to others than ourselves. Oh that we could but cease from man and put our whole trust in the Lord; none that ever did were confounded; he will never leave them nor forsake them. But we are for inverting that Scripture, Walk by faith and not by light. Our chief business should be with ourselves. It is better for me that hundreds of others make many mistakes than that I make a single one. Let us ever take heed what spirit we are of, for if we have not the Spirit of Christ we are none of his. May we ever drink deep of that blessed Spirit, my dear Sir. I trust a good name is like precious ointment, much to be valued. We can't cherish our reputation (consistent with our duty to God) too highly, but when the Lord calls for it and requires us to become fools for Christ we may cheerfully give it up; but if before we don't value it pray are we not offering the lame and the blind. The great attainment of the Christian is to suffer and place the sufferings to Christ's account. You are called to bear a testimony. Let patience have its perfect work. Testify all forbearance and look steadfastly at the Prince of Suffering and copy him closely. If you are for suffering that you deserve, only remember it is the suffering wrongfully only that has the promise. Be assured none can be your enemy unless you are your own. Those that would be so, you may account your best friends if they bring your graces into exercise. If we love the Lord aright, all necessarily works for our good. May you ever experience this. I have sent you many books, but one I hope will be your chief study, as that alone can make us wise unto salvation, and it gives wisdom for this world as well as for another. Be much in prayer, that every time you open God's Book you may see more of the dignity, completeness, loveliness, and grace of the Redeemer; for our all is in him, and he supplies according to our need. Beware of that selfishness into which we are all fallen, and be seeking that praise that cometh from God only; for how can we believe if we receive honour one of another and seek not the honor that cometh from God only. You'll excuse my entertaining you with a Fable: My waking dreams are best concealed; Much folly, little good they yield But now and then I gain when sleeping A friendly hint that's worth the keeping. Lately I dreamt of One who cried "Beware of self, beware of pride. When you are prone to build a Babel Recall to mind this little Fable." Once on a time a paper kite Was mounted to a wondrous height, Where, giddy with its elevation, It thus expressed self-admiration: "See how yon crowds of gazing people Admire my flight above the steeple! How would they wonder if they knew All that a kite like me can do! Was I but free, I'd take a flight And pierce the clouds beyond their sight; But ah! like a poor prisoner bound My string confines me near the ground. I'd brave the eagle's towering wing Might I but fly without a string." It tugged and pulled while thus it spoke To break the string. - At last it broke. - Deprived at once of all its stay In vain it tried to soar away. Unable its own weight to bear It fluttered downward through the air; Unable its own course to guide, The winds soon plunged it in the tide. Ah, foolish kite, thou hadst no wing; How couldst thou fly without a string! My heart replied: O Lord, I see How much this kite resembles me. Forgetful that by thee I stand, Impatient of thy ruling hand, How oft I've wished to break the lines Thy wisdom for my lot assigns? How oft indulged a vain desire For something more or something higher! And but for Grace and Love divine A fall thus dreadful had been mine. I can't say I am a great friend to fasting where it is not necessary and I should be sorry by looking to your duties and graces you got comfort as I apprehend that is making in some measure a Christ of them; but look to Jesus and admire and adore. He finished the work for us or it would never have been finished. Rejoice and be glad in the Lord and in him only, and if ever you can be pleased with yourself it is a bad sign, for in what single instance can the best of us come up to the just requirements of God's Law? The mystery of Godliness is going out of ourselves and trusting in another, from first to last. Trust in the Lord and you shall be fed. Rely on God's great and glorious promises and remember all is allotted us by an infinite wisdom, and if we show not forth his praise continually in the situation and circumstances he has fixed us, we should not in any other, though we may fondly imagine other ways. If they will not believe Moses and the Prophets, neither will they if one rise from the dead. My dear Sir, I believe you have been hardly used, but consult not flesh and blood; surely your Master was much more so. Be like him an Example of meekness and humility. Provoke not; pray fervently for those that are most unkind to you, and that is the way to the blessing. Get all the support you can. I think you have a fine call of usefulness. May the Lord enable you in every respect to improve it. Be not over anxious about the pence. I am ready to assist you, and if needful I have a hundred pound or two hundred at your service. Let anyone draw on me for you whenever you want, and keep up your hospitality to the Indians. In that matter you have acted very wisely. I trust the Lord has much work for you to do, but don't by going so far beyond your strength incapacitate yourself for farther service, or think that by much speaking the blessing comes. A small blast through the ram's horn will suffice to bring down the walls of Jericho. Remember, it is the Lord gives the efficacy and if he sets home all must prosper. That you may continue to increase with all the increase of God and be crowned and blessed daily and hourly is the fervent prayer of Dear Sir Yours most affectionately John Thornton My respects to Mrs. Kirkland . To The Reverend Mr. Samuel Kirkland at Oneida John Thornton, Esquire 27. August. 1770
