‘Prophets’ desired to speak with me

Wed 3 Nov 1742: Two of those who are called ‘prophets’ desired to speak with me. They told me they were sent from God with a message to me, which was that very shortly I should be ‘borned’ again. One of them added that they would stay in the house till it was done, unless I turned them out. I answered gravely, ‘I will not turn you out,’ and showed them down into the society room. It was tolerably cold, and they had neither meat nor drink. However, there they sat from morning to evening. They then went quietly away, and I have heard nothing from them since.
