    Foreword<\/h3>\n

    The “Three Freds\u201d both in life and death, showed that certain strong principles governed their lives. We would do well to consider these in relation to our own lives, as we read this book.<\/p>\n

    They did not say with Jacob, “If God\u2026 will keep me in the way… so that I come again in peace\u2026 then shall the Lord be my God.” But in glad abandon they committed their lives to do His will, although it meant death.<\/p>\n

    These men, seeing the possibility of death, bequeathed their kit to those who should follow them and evangelise the Kayapo. They understood the value of the souls of the wild Indians of the forest for whom Christ died.<\/p>\n

    They realised they might never complete, or even begin, the work; so great was the danger. Yet they believed God would fulfil His promise that some from every tribe would be around the Throne; and were ready to die in faith, not having received the promises but being persuaded of them. They considered obedience to God’s call their duty; and they left the issue with Him to raise up others to fulfil the work.
