Charles Finney addresses Sister A's concerns about public duties and the role of women in spiritual gatherings. He emphasizes that the guiding principle should be universal love rather than mere impulses or feelings, cautioning against being led by strong impressions that may come from Satan. Finney encourages her to consider the circumstances and the impact of her actions on others, asserting that true guidance from the Spirit is calm and reasoned. He also discusses the importance of maintaining a balanced approach to diet and health, warning against becoming enslaved to strict dietary rules. Ultimately, he reassures her that acting in love and seeking God's glory should guide her decisions.
