SINCE the Home-call of God’s beloved servant, so mane have expressed their desire to know something of his Life and work that we have felt constrained to write a little of what we know, with the heartfelt prayer that God will bless this little narrative to many of His own, as well as to those who are still unsaved.
What a wonderful warrior of the Cross Dr. Wreford was! His greatest joy was in making known the unsearchable riches of His grace, who had “called him out of darkness into His marvelous light.” It is, indeed, impossible to give you but a very small estimate of what his life was, but when we think of his untiring energy, and the fervor of tireless days and nights spent in the work of the Lord; of the editing of “A Message from God” year after year for fifty years; of the numbers of Gospel booklets he wrote and circulated; of his enormous correspondence; besides the years of his public preaching, and the spiritual help he gave in private, we stand in the shadow of this great loss, and feel that it is irreparable. But he will still live in his works, and thousands, we trust, will yet find the Saviour through them.
