I AM HERE. Alexander Campbell.
I am the founder of the Campbellites.
(Isn’t that an incorrect spelling?)
Well, I have spelled it as it should be spelled. I know my followers are sometimes called Camellites, but that is not correct.
I merely want to say that I did not understand the Plan of man’s salvation when on earth, and I taught erroneous doctrines as to this matter. I now see the great harm that I did. But, nevertheless, there was some good done also, for my people worshiped God as their Heavenly Father, and prayed to Him; and many of them received the ministrations of the Holy Ghost. So, I am grateful for what I taught, but also very sorry for the errors that I taught.
I am now in the Celestial Heavens and know that Jesus is a spirit and not God, and that his great work is still going on.
So, when I say that I am a follower of Jesus, I mean that I follow his teachings and try to imitate his life here as on earth. I am a stranger to you, but I felt that I must write to you and, so, took this opportunity.
So, thanking you, I am,
ALEXANDER CAMPBELL.
