CONCERNING THE LORD^S SUPPER. 
259 
LETTER XL 
FROM HENRY AND REBECCA WAHANGA, 
Father, Mr. Yate — Is the sacred Supper a remem- 
brance of J esus the Saviour’s dying upon a tree for us — - 
for me, and for my wife Rebecca, and for you? My 
soul is happy, because it knows something of the love of 
God : and I wish to know more, and to remember more 
of the great and good things which God hath done for 
me by Jesus Christ; and I want more to fulfil His will, 
and to do His bidding. My old heart is not carried 
away yet ; it remains inside me : and when I am on my 
bed at night, my heart says, “ Henry, do something that 
is not good to-morrow : and then my thoughts think 
about it ; and then to-morrow I think about it again ; 
and my native heart says, “ Do it : and I think again, 
and then I do it : and then my thoughts tell me I was 
wrong ; and my heart tells me I am an unbelieving, bad 
man : and then Satan comes, and tells me I am none of 
Jesus Christ’s, but of his, and shall go to his place, and 
do his work for ever, and ever, and ever. Mr. Yate, what 
do you think ? You have brought the Scriptures, printed, 
from the other side ©f the water, and I have got a book : 
and Rebecca says, I must read it to her when she is ill, 
bringing to the birth ; and I must look into it every day, 
every day, and pray more to God when I am reading ; 
and I shall soon altogether know what I am to do, or to 
be done with. Y our heart, and Mr. Kemp’s, and Mr. 
Davis’s, and all of yours, are always thinking good; but, 
as for ours ! Rebecca says, this is to be Her letter 
and My letter ; for they are our two’s thoughts, and our 
hearts are one. This is all from us two, from Henry 
Wahanga, and Rebecca Wahanga, to our father, Mr, 
Yate, living at the Waimate.
