6017. About Moravians

I was with Moravians who confessed their errors, and who began to want to receive truths, because they see that they are in a miserable state and thus [it was not happening] as they believed, which was that they were going to come into heaven before others. I spoke with them about the Lord, whose Divine they did not yet want to accept. They wish to call Him God, as men [did], scarcely as the angels [do]. They acknowledge that living well brings about [salvation], not faith alone, and that what is good must be done is if from oneself. I spoke with them about baptism, that they had made it unimportant, but still had retained it on account of the reformed, and that [for them] the holy supper was only a token, and that they did not regarded it holy, as others do.
