O that none of these may ‘draw back to perdition’

Mon 10 Jan 1743. I preached at five, at eight, and at three. In the intervals of preaching I spoke to all who desired it. Last night twenty-nine of them were joined together, Tuesday 11 about an hundred. O that none of these may ‘draw back to perdition’! Let these ‘believe, unto the saving of the soul’!
Wed. 12. I took my leave of them in the morning by showing the difference between the righteousness of the law and that of faith; and in the evening explained to a large congregation at Evesham, ‘So is everyone that is born of the Spirit.’
