Nine years later, driven away by the Spanish war, he settled in Haarlem, where he again preached. His service there was saddened by strife in the congregation, which he vainly attempted to settle. He then undertook a journey to the Prussian and Austrian congregations in [[Moravia (Czech Republic)|Moravia]]. In 1607 he was appointed as preacher of the United [[Frisian Mennonites|Frisians]], [[High German Mennonites|High Germans]], and [[Waterlanders|Waterlanders]] at [[Danzig (Poland)|Danzig]], and about 1612 became elder at Marcushof, serving with great blessing to Danzig and the neighboring churches until his death on 7 April 1617. During his eldership the Polish Brethren or [[Socinianism|Socinians]] of [[Danzig (Poland)|Danzig]], whose leader was Ulrich Pius Herwart, caused him much concern. They tried to merge with the congregation of Jan Gerrits, but the Mennonites, who rejected Socinian doctrines, tried to keep aloof; Jan Gerrits wrote a number of letters to the Dutch Waterlander leader [[Ries, Hans de (1553–1638)|Hans de Ries]], asking his advice and requesting him to come over to Danzig to aid them in the disputes with the Socinians, which de Ries, however, declined to do. After his death some books and two letters were published, <em>Vijf stichtelijcke predicatien </em>(1st ed. lost; 2nd Amsterdam, 1650). One of the letters is addressed to all his children, the other to his oldest son in Haarlem. "Both letters are full of fatherly, sincere, and emphatic words of comfort." His sermons testify to a zeal to win souls to Christ by God's grace; they deal exclusively with eternal ruin of man and the saving grace of God, based solely on the sacrificial death of Christ. He is also thought to have been the author of <em>Stichtelijke Gebeden en Meditatien, dewelke mede ter zee gebruikt kunnen worden </em>(n.p., n.d.), which others ascribe to Hans de Ries, and of <em>Een Vermaen-Boeckjen . . . met 42 Schriftuurlycke Liedekens </em>(Amsterdam, 1641, 2d ed. 1648, 3d ed. 1655), of which also [[Gerrits, Jan (16th/17th century)|Jan Gerrits]]<del class="diffchange diffchange-inline"><em></del>, <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline"></em></del>the old [[Flemish Mennonites|Flemish]] minister of Amsterdam, is said to have been the author.</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div>Amsterdam: Doopsgezinde Prenten]'']] Jan Gerrits van Emden: born 30 April 1561, probably at [[Emden (Niedersachsen, Germany)|Emden]], was of a serious nature from his early youth; at the age of 36 he was made preacher of the congregation at [[Appingedam (Groningen, Netherlands)|Appingedam]].

'']] Jan Gerrits van Emden: born 30 April 1561, probably at [[Emden (Niedersachsen, Germany)|Emden]], was of a serious nature from his early youth; at the age of 36 he was made preacher of the congregation at [[Appingedam (Groningen, Netherlands)|Appingedam]]. Nine years later, driven away by the Spanish war, he settled in Haarlem, where he again preached. His service there was saddened by strife in the congregation, which he vainly attempted to settle. He then undertook a journey to the Prussian and Austrian congregations in [[Moravia (Czech Republic)|Moravia]]. In 1607 he was appointed as preacher of the United [[Frisian Mennonites|Frisians]], [[High German Mennonites|High Germans]], and [[Waterlanders|Waterlanders]] at [[Danzig (Poland)|Danzig]], and about 1612 became elder at Marcushof, serving with great blessing to Danzig and the neighboring churches until his death on 7 April 1617. During his eldership the Polish Brethren or [[Socinianism|Socinians]] of [[Danzig (Poland)|Danzig]], whose leader was Ulrich Pius Herwart, caused him much concern. They tried to merge with the congregation of Jan Gerrits, but the Mennonites, who rejected Socinian doctrines, tried to keep aloof; Jan Gerrits wrote a number of letters to the Dutch Waterlander leader [[Ries, Hans de (1553–1638)|Hans de Ries]], asking his advice and requesting him to come over to Danzig to aid them in the disputes with the Socinians, which de Ries, however, declined to do. After his death some books and two letters were published, <em>Vijf stichtelijcke predicatien </em>(1st ed. lost; 2nd Amsterdam, 1650). One of the letters is addressed to all his children, the other to his oldest son in Haarlem. "Both letters are full of fatherly, sincere, and emphatic words of comfort." His sermons testify to a zeal to win souls to Christ by God's grace; they deal exclusively with eternal ruin of man and the saving grace of God, based solely on the sacrificial death of Christ. He is also thought to have been the author of <em>Stichtelijke Gebeden en Meditatien, dewelke mede ter zee gebruikt kunnen worden </em>(n.p., n.d.), which others ascribe to Hans de Ries, and of <em>Een Vermaen-Boeckjen . . . met 42 Schriftuurlycke Liedekens </em>(Amsterdam, 1641, 2d ed. 1648, 3d ed. 1655), of which also [[Gerrits, Jan (16th/17th century)|Jan Gerrits]]<em>, </em>the old [[Flemish Mennonites|Flemish]] minister of Amsterdam, is said to have been the author.<br />
<br />
In the 1650 edition of his sermons and letters three other sermons besides a very interesting formulary for [[Baptism|baptism]] and [[Communion|communion]], and several inspirational prayers of unknown authorship have been added. With all his simplicity of spirit he was not hostile to science. Thus, though uneducated, he knew the German and Latin languages in addition to his native Dutch.<br />
