BECAUSE OF THE INCREASE OF WICKEDNESS, THE LOVE OF MOST WILL GROW COLD, OUR MESSIAH WILL SEND HIS MESSENGER, WHO WILL PREPARE THE WAY IN ANTICIPATION OF THE LORD OF HOSTS. THEN WILL OUR MESSIAH, WHOM WE AWAIT, SHALL OCCUPY THE HOLY TEMPLE. FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONE AND ONLY SON, THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT THAT DAY OR HOUR, NOT EVEN THE ANGELS IN HEAVEN, NOR THE SON, BUT ONLY THE FATHER. THEREFORE KEEP WATCH, BECAUSE YOU DO NOT KNOW ON WHAT DAY YOUR LORD WILL COME. BUT UNDERSTAND THIS: IF THE OWNER OF THE HOUSE HAD KNOWN AT WHAT TIME OF NIGHT THE THIEF WAS COMING, HE WOULD HAVE KEPT WATCH AND WOULD NOT HAVE LET HIS HOUSE BE BROKEN INTO. SO YOU ALSO MUST BE READY, BECAUSE THE SON OF MAN WILL COME AT AN HOUR WHEN YOU DO NOT EXPECT HIM.

THE NEXT DAY WHEN INBREA BECAME CONSCIOUS, SHE WAS OVERWHELMED WITH FEAR, KNOWING THE PEOPLE OF THE LAND WOULD CURSE HER FOR WHAT SHE DID TO THE TREE, SHE HURRIED TO THE GARDEN READY TO CARE FOR THE TREE BUT INSTEAD FOUND JUST THE SEED OF ONE OF ITS FRUITS, IT WAS AT THIS MOMENT THAT SHE CRIED OUT TO THE LORD AND SAID: "WHERE IS THE TREE YOU PROMISED I WOULD FIND IN THE GARDEN? ALL I HAVE FOUND IS THIS SINGLE SEED" IT WAS AT THIS VERY MOMENT THAT OUR CREATOR REVEALED HIMSELF TO INBREA AND SAID: "AS SURELY AS I AM YOUR CREATOR, SO IS THAT SEED, THE FRUITFUL TREE I PROMISED YOU". IT WAS AT THIS MOMENT THAT INBREA FELL ON HER KNEES AND KNEW AS OUR CREATOR DID. SEEK OUR CREATOR AND HIS STRENGTH, SEEK HIS FACE CONTINUALLY, HE GUIDES THE HUMBLE IN WHAT IS RIGHT AND TEACHES THEM HIS WAY, WHO IS THE MAN WHO FEARS OUR CREATOR?

AND IT CAME TO PASS THAT THEIR WAS A VERY SICK WOMAN WITH ALL KINDS OF DISEASES NO ONE IN HER FAMILY WOULD GO NEAR HER, AFRAID THEY WOULD BE STRICKEN WITH HER ILLNESSES, THEY ALL STAYED AWAY. ONE DAY HER ILLNESS BECAME UNBEARABLE AND FROM HER HEART SHE CRIED OUT TO GOD "LORD HELP ME PLEASE" GOD WHO HEARS ALL HIS CHILDREN SENT HIS ONLY SON TO HER HOME. WHEN THE SON OF GOD ARRIVED AT HER DOOR HER FAMILY GREETED HIM AND INVITED HIM IN, THE SON OF GOD TOLD THE SICK WOMAN "I WAS SENT BY GOD WHO HAS HEARD YOUR PLEA FOR HELP, I AM HERE TO RID YOU OF ALL THAT'S AFFLICTING YOU", THE SON OF GOD SAID TO HER FAMILY "HOLD OUR SISTER AND SHORTLY AFTER SHE WILL BE CURED" HER FAMILY HELD HER SO TIGHT THAT MOMENTS AFTER, THE WOMAN CRIED OUT "YOU ARE IN DEED GOD'S SON FOR YOU HAVE CURED ME, TO WHICH THE SON OF GOD REPLIED "I HAVE NOT CURED YOU, IT WAS YOUR FAMILY'S LOVE AND YOUR FAITH IN GOD THAT HAS RID YOU AND YOUR HOUSEHOLD OF YOUR DISEASES".

BROTHERS AND SISTERS, THE ANOINTING MAKES WHAT IS BLURRY BECOME CLEAR, KNOW THAT THE SERPENT CONVINCED WITH WORDS THE INNOCENT WOMAN, THE SERPENT SAID, YOU WILL NOT SURELY DIE, I TELL YOU, AS SURELY AS GOD IS OUR CREATOR. BROTHERS AND SISTERS KNOW THAT LYING LIPS ARE AN ABOMINATION TO OUR CREATOR, AND THOSE WHO ACT FAITHFULLY ARE A DELIGHT TO OUR CREATOR, KNOW NOT TO PERMIT YOUR TONGUE TO PLOT DESTRUCTION, AND TRANSFORM YOU INTO A WORKER OF DECEIT, KNOW THAT WE ARE FROM GOD, AND WHEN THE WHOLE WORLD LIES, IT WILL BE LYING IN THE POWER OF THE EVIL ONE, DO NOT BE DECEIVED, GOD IS NOT MOCKED, FOR WHATEVER ONE SOWS, THAT WILL HE ALSO REAP.

KNOW TO BE READY, OUR CREATOR WILL REVEAL HIMSELF AT AN HOUR YOU DO NOT EXPECT, KNOW TO STAY AWAKE, FOR YOU DO NOT KNOW ON WHAT DAY OUR CREATOR WILL BE HERE, KNOW THAT NO ONE CAN SERVE TWO MASTERS, FOR EITHER HE WILL HATE THE ONE AND LOVE THE OTHER, OR HE WILL BE DEVOTED TO THE ONE AND DESPISE THE OTHER. IN THE ANOINTING, A TRUTH HAS BEEN REVEALED TO ME, NOW AWARE THAT WE HAVE BEEN CALLED TO SERVE OUR CREATOR, WE MUST KNOW TO PUT OUR CREATOR'S WILL BEFORE THAT OF ANY MAN OR WOMAN, KNOW THAT IT WAS OUR CREATOR WHO RAISED UP OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST AND MADE HIM OUR SAVIOUR, THIS WOULD SERVE AS A BLESSING FOR THOSE WHO DID NOT OBEY GOD, AND DID EVIL ONTO JESUS IN THEIR CARE, NOW IN JESUS NAME MUST THEY REPENT AND OBTAIN THE PARDONING OF THEIR SINS BY OUR CREATOR, FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONE AND ONLY SON, THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE, OUR CREATOR PROMISES TO PROSPER US AND NOT TO HARM US, PLANS TO GIVE US HOPE AND A FUTURE AND WE KNOW THAT IN ALL THINGS GOD WORKS FOR THE GOOD OF THOSE WHO LOVE HIM, WHO HAVE BEEN CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE, WE CAN DO EVERYTHING THROUGH HIM WHO GIVES US STRENGTH, KNOW TO TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND LEAN NOT ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING, AACKNOWLEDGE OUR CREATOR, AND HE WILL MAKE YOUR PATHS STRAIGHT, DO NOT CONFORM ANY LONGER TO THE PATTERN OF THIS WORLD, BUT BE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, THEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO TEST AND APPROVE WHAT GOD’S WILL IS—HIS GOOD, PLEASING AND PERFECT WILL, DO NOT BE ANXIOUS ABOUT ANYTHING, BUT IN EVERYTHING, BY PRAYER AND PETITION, WITH THANKSGIVING, PRESENT YOUR REQUESTS TO GOD, THEREFORE GO AND MAKE DISCIPLES OF ALL NATIONS, BAPTIZING THEM IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER AND OF THE SON AND OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. BROTHERS AND SISTERS, I URGE YOU, TO KNOW OUR CREATOR, TO REFLECT IN YOUR EVERY ACTION THE TEACHINGS OF OUR CREATOR, AS PEOPLE WHO KNOW THE WISDOM OF OUR CREATOR'S LOVE, KNOW THAT OUR CREATOR REJOICES WHEN HIS CHILDREN ACT ON HIS TEACHINGS, KNOW NOT TO CONFORM TO THE PATTERN OF THIS WORLD, BUT INSTEAD TRANSFORM INTO A RIGHTOUS PEOPLE BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, SO THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO DISCERN AND KNOW THE WISDOM, GOODNESS, LOVE AND WILL OF OUR CREATOR, THE AUTHOR OF CREATION MANIFESTS INTO OUR EVERYDAY LIFE AS A PLEASING AND PERFECT WILL, IN THE ANOINTING AND IN OBEDIENCE TO OUR CREATOR'S WILL I SAY TO EVERY ONE OF YOU: NEVER HOLD IN YOUR MIND THE IDEA OR DECEIVE YOUR HEART TO KNOW THAT YOU, A MEMBER OF THE BODY, A PART OF THE WHOLE, A PIECE OF THE ENTIRE, CAN EVER BE MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR BROTHER OR SISTER, KNOW TO THINK OF YOURSELF AS ONE WHO IS HUMBLE, CARING, OF SOBER JUDGMENT, OBIDIENT TO LOVE, OF GOOD FAITH, A CHILD OF OUR CREATOR, WHO'S PERFECT LOVE HAS MADE ALL HIS CHILDREN EQUAL TO EACH OTHER. KNOW THAT EACH OF US HAS ONE BODY WITH MANY MEMBERS, AND THESE MEMBERS DO NOT ALL HAVE THE SAME FUNCTION, IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST WE KNOW THAT MANY FORM A SINGLE BODY, AND THAT EACH MEMBER BELONGS TO ALL THE OTHERS, KNOW THAT WE HAVE DIFFERENT GIFTS, EACH WITH A PURPOSE SET FORTH BY THE AUTHOR OF LIFE, IF YOUR GIFT IS PROPHESYING, THEN PROPHESY IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR FAITH, IF IT IS TO SERVE, THEN SERVE; IF IT IS TO TEACH, THEN TEACH; IF IT IS TO ENCOURAGE, THEN ENCOURAGE; IF IT IS TO BE A GIVING MEMBER, THEN GIVE GENEROUSLY; IF IT IS TO LEAD, THEN LEAD HONORABLY; IF IT IS TO SHOW MERCY, DO IT CHEERFULLY, KNOW TO HAVE ALL YOUR ACTIONS REFLECT THE LOVE GIVEN TO YOU, KNOW TO ALWAYS BE SINCERE AND HATE WHAT IS EVIL, WRONG, BAD, CORRUPT, INCOMPLETE, DECEITFUL; KNOW TO ALWAYS BE GOOD, KNOW TO BE DEVOTED TO ONE ANOTHER IN LOVE, KNOW TO HONOR ONE ANOTHER, KNOW TO NEVER HONOR YOURSELF BEFORE YOUR BROTHER AND SISTER, KNOW TO NEVER LACK IN ZEAL, BUT KEEP YOUR SPIRITUAL FAITHFUL ALWAYS SERVING OUR CREATOR, KNOW TO BE JOYFUL, HOPEFUL, PATIENT, FAITHFUL, LOVING, KIND, A MEMBER OF THE WHOLE AND A BLESSING TO OUR CREATOR, KNOW TO ALWAYS SHARE WITH YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS, KNOW TO BE HOSPITABLE, KNOW TO ALWAYS BLESS THOSE WHO PERSECUTE YOU, TO NEVER CURSE YOUR BROTHER AND SISTER, KNOW THE IMPORTANCE OF THE WHOLE, THE ENTIRE, THE BODY, YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS, REJOICE WITH THOSE WHO REJOICE, MOURN WITH THOSE WHO MOURN, LIVE IN HARMONY WITH ONE ANOTHER, DO NOT BE PROUD, BUT BE WILLING TO ASSOCIATE WITH PEOPLE DEEMED BY THE UNWISE TO BE OF A LESSER POSITION, KNOW NOT TO BE CONCEITED, KNOW NEVER TO REPAY ANYONE EVIL WITH EVIL, KNOW THE IMPORTANCE TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT, JUST, WISE AS INSTRUCTED BY OUR CREATOR IN THE EYES OF HIS CHILDREN, KNOW TO LIVE PEACEFULLY WITH ALL YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS, KNOW NOT TO TAKE REVENGE, KNOW THAT ONLY OUR CREATOR CAN JUDGE, KNOW OUR CREATOR'S WRATH IS HIS AND HIS ALONE, IT IS THE LAW OF OUR CREATOR: “IT IS MINE TO AVENGE; I WILL REPAY,” SAYS OUR CREATOR, KNOW THAT HIS LAW TEACHES US TO UNDERSTAND THAT IF AN ENEMY IS HUNGRY, FEED HIM, IF HE IS THIRSTY, GIVE HIM SOMETHING TO DRINK, IN DOING THIS, YOU WILL HEAP BURNING COALS ON HIS HEAD, AND HAVE PROVEN TO BE OBIDIENT TO OUR CREATOR, KNOW NOT TO ALLOW EVIL TO OVERCOME YOU, RATHER TEACH IT WHAT IS GOOD, SO YOU MAY OVERCOME IT, AS INSTRUCTED IN THE LAWS GIVEN TO US BY OUR CREATOR. THE SPIRIT OF OUR CREATOR IS UPON ME, THIS ANOINTING HAS BROUGHT FORTH WISDOM TO THOSE WITH LITTLE KNOWLEDGE, PEACE TO THOSE WITH TROUBLED HEARTS, LIBERTY TO THOSE CAPTURED, RELEASE FOR THOSE WHO ARE BOUND.

WHAT IF HE SHOULD ASK FOR FISH, WILL YOU HIS FATHER GIVE HIM A SERPENT? IF YOU THEN, WHO ARE EVIL, KNOW HOW TO GIVE GOOD GIFTS TO YOUR CHILDREN, HOW MUCH MORE WILL OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN THE AUTHOR OF CREATION GIVE TO THOSE WHO NEED FROM HIM, KNOW TO BE TO OTHERS THAT WHICH YOU REQUIRE OF THEM, THIS IS THE LAW OF OUR CREATOR. YET A TIME IS COMING AND HAS NOW COME WHEN THE TRUE WORSHIPERS WILL WORSHIP OUR CREATOR IN THE SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH, FOR THEY ARE THE KIND OF WORSHIPERS THE FATHER SEEKS. OUR CREATOR IS SPIRIT, AND HIS WORSHIPERS MUST WORSHIP IN THE SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH.” MAY OUR CREATOR WHO GIVES ENDURANCE AND ENCOURAGEMENT GIVE YOU THE SAME ATTITUDE OF MIND TOWARD EACH OTHER THAT CHRIST JESUS HAD, SO THAT WITH ONE MIND AND ONE VOICE YOU MAY GLORIFY OUR CREATOR FATHER OF OUR SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST. THE PERSON WITHOUT THE SPIRIT DOES NOT ACCEPT THE THINGS THAT COME FROM THE SPIRIT OF OUR CREATOR BUT CONSIDERS THEM FOOLISHNESS, AND CANNOT UNDERSTAND THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE DISCERNED ONLY THROUGH THE SPIRIT. THE PERSON WITH THE SPIRIT MAKES JUDGMENTS ABOUT ALL THINGS, BUT SUCH A PERSON IS NOT SUBJECT TO MERELY HUMAN JUDGMENTS, FOR, “WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF OUR CREATOR SO AS TO INSTRUCT THE AUTHOR OF CREATION?” BUT WE HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST. “THIS IS WHAT OUR CREATOR YOUR REDEEMER, WHO FORMED YOU IN THE WOMB SAYS: "I AM THE CREATOR, THE MAKER OF ALL THINGS, WHO STRETCHES OUT THE HEAVENS, WHO SPREADS OUT THE EARTH BY MYSELF, WHO FOILS THE SIGNS OF FALSE PROPHETS AND MAKES FOOLS OF DIVINERS, WHO OVERTHROWS THE LEARNING OF THE WISE AND TURNS IT INTO NONSENSE, WHO CARRIES OUT THE WORDS OF HIS SERVANTS AND FULFILLS THE PREDICTIONS OF HIS MESSENGERS, WHO SAYS OF THE HOLY LAND, ‘IT SHALL BE INHABITED,’ OF THE TOWNS OF JUDAH, ‘THEY SHALL BE REBUILT,’ AND OF THEIR RUINS, ‘I WILL RESTORE THEM,’ WHO SAYS TO THE WATERY DEEP, ‘BE DRY, AND I WILL DRY UP YOUR STREAMS,’ WHO SAYS OF CYRUS, ‘HE IS MY SHEPHERD AND WILL ACCOMPLISH ALL THAT I PLEASE; HE WILL SAY OF HIS HOLY FIELD, “LET IT BE REBUILT,” AND OF THE HOLY TEMPLE, “LET ITS FOUNDATIONS BE LAID.”’ “BUT I HAVE BEEN THE CREATOR YOUR GOD EVER SINCE YOU CAME OUT OF EGYPT. YOU SHALL ACKNOWLEDGE NO GOD BUT ME, NO SAVIOR EXCEPT ME. I CARED FOR YOU IN THE WILDERNESS, IN THE LAND OF BURNING HEAT. I FED YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS, AND THEY WERE SATISFIED; WHEN THEY WERE SATISFIED, THEY BECAME PROUD; THEN THEY FORGOT ME. SAY TO YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS: "LET'S RETURN TO OUR CREATOR. EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE BEEN TORN TO PIECES, OUR CREATOR WILL HEAL US. EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE BEEN WOUNDED, OUR CREATOR WILL BANDAGE OUR WOUNDS." AND THE CREATOR OF HUMANITY SAID TO NOAH: 'YOU AND ALL THOSE YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR WILL I ALLOW INTO THE ARK; I HAVE WITNESSED YOU TO BE A RIGHTEOUS MAN IN THIS GENERATION. I WILL ALLOW IT TO RAIN UPON THE EARTH FOR FORTY DAYS AND FORTY NIGHTS; SO THAT ALL LIVING SUBSTANCE THAT I HAVE MADE WILL I ERASE FROM THE SURFACE OF THE EARTH. NOAH DID ACCORDING TO ALL THAT THE CREATOR OF HUMANITY COMMANDED HIM TO DO. SO IT BEGAN, THE FLOOD WATERS WERE RELEASED UPON THE SURFACE OF THE EARTH. AND NOAH, AND ALL HE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR ENTERED THE ARK, AND THE CREATOR OF HUMANITY SEALED THEM IN THE ARK. WHEN THE WATERS INCREASED, IT BORE UP THE ARK, AND THE ARK WAS LIFTED UP ABOVE THE EARTH. THE WATERS PREVAILED, AND INCREASED GREATLY UPON THE EARTH; AND ALL THE HIGH MOUNTAINS THAT WERE UNDER THE WHOLE HEAVEN WERE COVERED. FIFTEEN CUBITS UPWARD DID THE WATERS PREVAIL; AND THE MOUNTAINS WERE COVERED. WHATSOEVER WAS IN THE DRY LAND, DIED. THE WATERS PREVAILED UPON THE EARTH A TOTAL OF A HUNDRED AND FIFTY DAYS. "NO ONE CAN SERVE TWO MASTERS. EITHER HE WILL HATE THE ONE AND LOVE THE OTHER, OR HE WILL BE DEVOTED TO THE ONE AND DESPISE THE OTHER. YOU CANNOT SERVE BOTH GOD AND (GOLD, SILVER, MONEY, IDOLS, EARTHLY POWERS)" LEARN FROM JUDAS WHO RETURNED THE THIRTY SILVER COINS TO THE CHIEF PRIESTS AND THE ELDERS, AFTER BETRAYING JESUS CHRIST, HE REPENTED AND INFORMED THEM THAT HE HAD SINNED AND HAD BETRAYED INNOCENT BLOOD. BROTHERS AND SISTERS, BECOME WISE PEOPLE FOR THE SAKE OF OUR CHILDREN. "AGAIN I TELL YOU, IT IS EASIER FOR A CAMEL TO GO THROUGH THE EYE OF A NEEDLE THAN FOR A RICH MAN TO ENTER THE KINGDOM OF GOD." I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD, WHO BROUGHT YOU UP OUT OF THE LAND OF EGYPT, OUT OF THE HOUSE OF SLAVERY; DO NOT HAVE ANY OTHER GODS BEFORE ME. YOU SHALL NOT MAKE FOR YOURSELF AN IDOL, WHETHER IN THE FORM OF ANYTHING THAT IS IN HEAVEN ABOVE, OR THAT IS ON THE EARTH BENEATH, OR THAT IS IN THE WATER UNDER THE EARTH. YOU SHALL NOT BOW DOWN TO THEM OR WORSHIP THEM; FOR I THE LORD YOUR GOD AM A JEALOUS GOD, PUNISHING CHILDREN FOR THE INIQUITY OF PARENTS, TO THE THIRD AND THE FOURTH GENERATION OF THOSE WHO REJECT ME, BUT SHOWING STEADFAST LOVE TO THE THOUSANDTH GENERATION OF THOSE WHO LOVE ME AND KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS. YOU SHALL NOT MAKE WRONGFUL USE OF THE NAME OF THE LORD YOUR GOD, FOR THE LORD WILL NOT ACQUIT ANYONE WHO MISUSES HIS NAME. REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY AND KEEP IT HOLY. FOR SIX DAYS YOU SHALL LABOUR AND DO ALL YOUR WORK. BUT THE SEVENTH DAY IS A SABBATH TO THE LORD YOUR GOD; YOU SHALL NOT DO ANY WORK—YOU, YOUR SON OR YOUR DAUGHTER, YOUR MALE OR FEMALE SLAVE, YOUR LIVESTOCK, OR THE ALIEN RESIDENT IN YOUR TOWNS. FOR IN SIX DAYS THE LORD MADE HEAVEN AND EARTH, THE SEA, AND ALL THAT IS IN THEM, BUT RESTED THE SEVENTH DAY; THEREFORE THE LORD BLESSED THE SABBATH DAY AND CONSECRATED IT. HONOR YOUR FATHER AND YOUR MOTHER, SO THAT YOUR DAYS MAY BE LONG IN THE LAND THAT THE LORD YOUR GOD IS GIVING YOU. YOU SHALL NOT KILL/MURDER. YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY. YOU SHALL NOT STEAL. YOU SHALL NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS AGAINST YOUR NEIGHBOR. YOU SHALL NOT COVET YOUR NEIGHBOR’S HOUSE; YOU SHALL NOT COVET YOUR NEIGHBOR’S WIFE, OR MALE OR FEMALE SLAVE, OR OX, OR DONKEY, OR ANYTHING THAT BELONGS TO YOUR NEIGHBOR. - I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD, WHO BROUGHT YOU UP OUT OF THE LAND OF EGYPT, OUT OF THE HOUSE OF SLAVERY; YOU SHALL HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME. YOU SHALL NOT MAKE FOR YOURSELF AN IDOL, WHETHER IN THE FORM OF ANYTHING THAT IS IN HEAVEN ABOVE, OR THAT IS ON THE EARTH BENEATH, OR THAT IS IN THE WATER UNDER THE EARTH. YOU SHALL NOT BOW DOWN TO THEM OR WORSHIP THEM; FOR I THE LORD YOUR GOD AM A JEALOUS GOD, PUNISHING CHILDREN FOR THE INIQUITY OF PARENTS, TO THE THIRD AND FOURTH GENERATION OF THOSE WHO REJECT ME, BUT SHOWING STEADFAST LOVE TO THE THOUSANDTH GENERATION OF THOSE WHO LOVE ME AND KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS. YOU SHALL NOT MAKE WRONGFUL USE OF THE NAME OF THE LORD YOUR GOD, FOR THE LORD WILL NOT ACQUIT ANYONE WHO MISUSES HIS NAME. OBSERVE THE SABBATH DAY AND KEEP IT HOLY, AS THE LORD YOUR GOD COMMANDED YOU. FOR SIX DAYS YOU SHALL LABOUR AND DO ALL YOUR WORK. BUT THE SEVENTH DAY IS A SABBATH TO THE LORD YOUR GOD; YOU SHALL NOT DO ANY WORK—YOU, OR YOUR SON OR YOUR DAUGHTER, OR YOUR MALE OR FEMALE SLAVE, OR YOUR OX OR YOUR DONKEY, OR ANY OF YOUR LIVESTOCK, OR THE RESIDENT ALIEN IN YOUR TOWNS, SO THAT YOUR MALE AND FEMALE SLAVE MAY REST AS WELL AS YOU. REMEMBER THAT YOU WERE A SLAVE IN THE LAND OF EGYPT, AND THE LORD YOUR GOD BROUGHT YOU OUT FROM THERE WITH A MIGHTY HAND AND AN OUTSTRETCHED ARM; THEREFORE THE LORD YOUR GOD COMMANDED YOU TO KEEP THE SABBATH DAY. HONOR YOUR FATHER AND YOUR MOTHER, AS THE LORD YOUR GOD COMMANDED YOU, SO THAT YOUR DAYS MAY BE LONG AND THAT IT MAY GO WELL WITH YOU IN THE LAND THAT THE LORD YOUR GOD IS GIVING YOU. YOU SHALL NOT KILL/MURDER. NEITHER SHALL YOU COMMIT ADULTERY. NEITHER SHALL YOU STEAL. NEITHER SHALL YOU BEAR FALSE WITNESS AGAINST YOUR NEIGHBOR. NEITHER SHALL YOU COVET YOUR NEIGHBOR’S WIFE. NEITHER SHALL YOU DESIRE YOUR NEIGHBOR’S HOUSE, OR FIELD, OR MALE OR FEMALE SLAVE, OR OX, OR DONKEY, OR ANYTHING THAT BELONGS TO YOUR NEIGHBOR. JESUS HAS BEEN FOUND WORTHY OF GREATER HONOR THAN MOSES, JUST AS THE BUILDER OF A HOUSE HAS GREATER HONOR THAN THE HOUSE ITSELF. FOR EVERY HOUSE IS BUILT BY SOMEONE, BUT GOD IS THE BUILDER OF EVERYTHING. IN HIM THE WHOLE BUILDING IS JOINED TOGETHER AND RISES TO BECOME A HOLY TEMPLE IN THE LORD. IN HIM YOU TOO ARE BEING BUILT TOGETHER TO BECOME A DWELLING IN WHICH GOD LIVES BY HIS SPIRIT. DO NOT YE YET UNDERSTAND, THAT WHATSOEVER ENTERETH IN AT THE MOUTH GOETH INTO THE BELLY, AND IS CAST OUT INTO THE DRAUGHT. BUT THOSE THINGS WHICH PROCEED OUT OF THE MOUTH CAME FORTH FROM THE HEART; AND THEY DEFILE THE MAN. FOR OUT OF THE HEART PROCEED EVIL THOUGHTS, MURDERS, ADULTERIES, FORNICATIONS, THEFTS, FALSE WITNESS, BLASPHEMIES. THESE ARE THE THINGS WHICH DEFILE A MAN; BUT TO EAT WITH UNWASHEN HANDS DEFILETH NOT A MAN. HOW FORTUNATE ARE THE POOR; THEY HAVE GOD'S KINGDOM. HOW FORTUNATE THE HUNGRY; THEY WILL BE FED. HOW FORTUNATE ARE THOSE WHO ARE CRYING; THEY WILL LAUGH I AM TELLING YOU, LOVE YOUR ENEMIES, BLESS THOSE WHO CURSE YOU, PRAY FOR THOSE WHO MISTREAT YOU. IF SOMEONE SLAPS YOU ON THE CHEEK, OFFER YOUR OTHER CHEEK AS WELL. IF ANYONE GRABS YOUR COAT, LET HIM HAVE YOUR SHIRT AS WELL. GIVE TO ANYONE WHO ASKS, AND IF SOMEONE TAKES AWAY YOUR BELONGINGS, DO NOT ASK TO HAVE THEM BACK. AS YOU WANT PEOPLE TO TREAT YOU, DO THE SAME TO THEM. IF YOU LOVE THOSE WHO LOVE YOU, WHAT CREDIT IS THAT TO YOU? EVEN TAX COLLECTORS LOVE THOSE WHO LOVE THEM, DO THEY NOT? AND IF YOU EMBRACE ONLY YOUR BROTHERS, WHAT MORE ARE YOU DOING THAN OTHERS? DOESN'T EVERYBODY DO THAT? IF YOU LEND TO THOSE FROM WHOM YOU EXPECT REPAYMENT, WHAT CREDIT IS THAT TO YOU? EVEN WRONGDOERS LEND TO THEIR KIND BECAUSE THEY EXPECT TO BE REPAID. INSTEAD, LOVE YOUR ENEMIES, DO GOOD, AND LEND WITHOUT EXPECTING ANYTHING IN RETURN. YOUR REWARD WILL BE GREAT, AND YOU WILL BE CHILDREN OF GOD. FOR HE MAKES HIS SUN RISE ON THE EVIL AND ON THE GOOD; HE SENDS RAIN ON THE JUST AND ON THE UNJUST DON'T JUDGE AND YOU WON'T BE JUDGED. FOR THE STANDARD YOU USE (IN JUDGING) WILL BE THE STANDARD USED AGAINST YOU. CAN THE BLIND LEAD THE BLIND? WON'T THEY BOTH FALL INTO A PIT? A STUDENT IS NOT BETTER THAN HIS TEACHER. IT IS ENOUGH FOR A STUDENT TO BE LIKE HIS TEACHER. HOW CAN YOU LOOK FOR THE SPLINTER IN YOUR BROTHER'S EYE AND NOT NOTICE THE STICK IN YOUR OWN EYE? HOW CAN YOU SAY TO YOUR BROTHER, 'LET ME REMOVE THE SPLINTER IN YOUR EYE', WHEN YOU DO NOT SEE THE STICK IN YOUR OWN EYE? YOU HYPOCRITE, FIRST TAKE THE STICK FROM YOUR OWN EYE, AND THEN YOU CAN SEE TO REMOVE THE SPLINTER THAT IS IN YOUR BROTHER'S EYE. A GOOD TREE DOES NOT BEAR ROTTEN FRUIT; A ROTTEN TREE DOES NOT BEAR GOOD FRUIT. ARE FIGS GATHERED FORM THORNS, OR GRAPES FROM THISTLES? EVERY TREE IS KNOWN BY ITS FRUIT. THE GOOD MAN PRODUCES GOOD THINGS FROM HIS STORE OF GOODS AND TREASURES; AND THE EVIL MAN EVIL THINGS. FOR THE MOUTH SPEAKS FROM A FULL HEART. WHY DO YOU CALL ME, 'MASTER, MASTER', AND NOT DO WHAT I SAY? EVERYONE WHO HEARS MY WORDS AND DOES THEM IS LIKE A MAN WHO BUILT A HOUSE ON ROCK. THE RAIN FELL, A TORRENT BROKE AGAINST THE HOUSE, AND IT DID NOT FALL, FOR IT HAD A ROCK FOUNDATION. BUT EVERYONE WHO HEARS MY WORDS AND DOES NOT DO THEM IS LIKE A MAN WHO BUILT A HOUSE ON SAND. THE RAIN CAME, THE TORRENT BROKE AGAINST IT, AND IT COLLAPSED. THE RUIN OF THAT HOUSE WAS GREAT. WHEN SOMEONE SAID TO HIM, 'I WILL FOLLOW YOU WHEREVER YOU GO,' JESUS ANSWERED, 'FOXES HAVE DENS, AND BIRDS OF THE SKY HAVE NESTS, BUT THE SON OF MAN HAS NOWHERE TO LAY HIS HEAD.' WHEN ANOTHER SAID, 'LET ME FIRST GO AND BURY MY FATHER,' JESUS SAID, 'LEAVE THE DEAD TO BURY THEIR DEAD.'YET ANOTHER SAID, 'I WILL FOLLOW YOU, SIR, BUT FIRST LET ME SAY GOODBYE TO MY FAMILY.' JESUS SAID TO HIM, 'NO ONE WHO PUTS HIS HAND TO THE PLOW AND THEN LOOKS BACK IS FIT FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD'. SELL YOUR POSSESSIONS AND GIVE TO CHARITY (ALMS). STORE UP TREASURE FOR YOURSELVES IN A HEAVENLY ACCOUNT, WHERE MOTHS AND RUST DO NOT CONSUME, AND WHERE THIEVES CANNOT BREAK IN AND STEAL. FOR WHERE YOUR TREASURE IS, THERE YOUR HEART WILL ALSO BE. SEEK AFTER THE TREASURE WHICH DOES NOT PERISH, WHICH ENDURES IN THE PLACE WHERE NO MOTH COMES NEAR TO DEVOUR, AND NO WORM RAVAGES. SOMEONE FROM THE CROWD SAID TO HIM, 'TEACHER, TELL MY BROTHER TO DIVIDE THE INHERITANCE WITH ME.' BUT HE SAID TO HIM, 'SIR, WHO MADE ME YOUR JUDGE OR LAWYER?' HE TOLD THEM A PARABLE, SAYING, 'THE LAND OF A RICH MAN PRODUCED IN ABUNDANCE, AND HE THOUGHT TO HIMSELF, "WHAT SHOULD I DO, FOR I HAVE NOWHERE TO STORE MY CROPS?" THEN HE SAID, "I WILL DO THIS. I WILL PULL DOWN MY BARNS AND BUILD LARGER ONES, AND THERE I WILL STORE ALL MY GRAIN AND MY GOODS. AND I WILL SAY TO MY SOUL, SOUL YOU HAVE AMPLE GOODS STORED FOR MANY YEARS. TAKE IT EASY. EAT, DRINK, AND BE MERRY." BUT GOD SAID TO HIM, "FOOLISH MAN? THIS VERY NIGHT YOU WILL HAVE TO GIVE BACK YOUR SOUL, AND THE THINGS YOU PRODUCED, WHOSE WILL THEY BE?" THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS TO THE ONE WHO STORES UP TREASURE FOR HIMSELF AND IS NOT RICH IN THE SIGHT OF GOD'. GO. LOOK, I SEND YOU OUT AS LAMBS AMONG WOLVES. DO NOT CARRY MONEY, OR BAG, OR SANDALS, OR STAFF; AND DO NOT GREET ANYONE ON THE ROAD. WHATEVER HOUSE YOU ENTER, SAY, 'PEACE BE TO THIS HOUSE!' AND IF A CHILD OF PEACE IS THERE, YOUR GREETING WILL BE RECEIVED. BUT IF NOT, LET YOUR PEACE RETURN TO YOU. AND STAY IN THE SAME HOUSE, EATING AND DRINKING WHATEVER THEY PROVIDE, FOR THE WORKER DESERVES HIS WAGES. DO NOT GO FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. AND IF YOU ENTER A TOWN AND THEY RECEIVE YOU, EAT WHAT IS SET BEFORE YOU. PAY ATTENTION TO THE SICK AND SAY TO THEM, 'GOD'S KINGDOM HAS COME NEAR TO YOU.' BUT IF YOU ENTER A TOWN AND THEY DO NOT RECEIVE YOU, AS YOU LEAVE, SHAKE THE DUST FROM YOUR FEET AND SAY, 'NEVERTHELESS, BE SURE OF THIS, THE REALM OF GOD HAS COME TO YOU'. I AM TELLING YOU, DO NOT WORRY ABOUT YOUR LIFE, WHAT YOU WILL EAT, OR ABOUT YOUR BODY, WHAT YOU WILL WEAR. ISN'T LIFE MORE THAN FOOD, AND THE BODY MORE THAN CLOTHING? THINK OF THE RAVENS. THEY DO NOT PLANT, HARVEST, OR STORE GRAIN IN BARNS, AND GOD FEEDS THEM. AREN'T YOU WORTH MORE THAN THE BIRDS? WHICH OF YOU CAN ADD A SINGLE DAY TO YOUR LIFE BY WORRYING? AND WHY DO YOU WORRY ABOUT CLOTHING? THINK OF THE WAY LILIES GROW. THEY DO NOT WORK OR SPIN. BUT EVEN SOLOMON IN ALL HIS SPLENDOR WAS NOT AS MAGNIFICENT. IF GOD PUTS BEAUTIFUL CLOTHES ON THE GRASS THAT IS IN THE FIELD TODAY AND TOMORROW IS THROWN INTO A FURNACE, WON'T HE PUT CLOTHES ON YOU, FAINT HEARTS? SO DON'T WORRY, THINKING, 'WHAT WILL WE EAT?', OR 'WHAT WILL WE DRINK?', OR 'WHAT WILL WE WEAR?' FOR EVERYBODY IN THE WHOLE WORLD DOES THAT, AND YOUR FATHER KNOWS THAT YOU NEED THESE THINGS. INSTEAD, MAKE SURE OF HIS RULE OVER YOU, AND ALL THESE THINGS WILL BE YOURS AS WELL. HE WHO WISHES TO FOLLOW ME MUST KNOW HIMSELF AND BEAR MY YOKE. JESUS SAID: HE WHO WOULD KNOW EVERYTHING, BUT FAILS TO KNOW HIMSELF MISSES THE KNOWLEDGE OF EVERYTHING. NO ONE LIGHTS A LAMP AND PUTS IT UNDER A BUSHEL BASKET, BUT ON A LAMPSTAND. AND THOSE IN THE HOUSE SEE THE LIGHT. THE LAMP OF THE BODY IS THE EYE. IF YOUR EYE IS GOOD YOUR WHOLE BODY WILL BE FULL OF LIGHT. BUT IF IT IS BAD YOUR WHOLE BODY WILL BE FULL OF DARKNESS. IF THE LIGHT IN YOU IS DARKNESS, HOW GREAT IS THAT DARKNESS. BECAUSE OF THAT I SAY THIS: WHOEVER IS EMPTIED WILL BE FILLED WITH LIGHT; BUT WHOEVER IS DIVIDED WILL BE FILLED WITH DARKNESS. STRIVE TO ENTER BY THE NARROW DOOR, FOR MANY, I TELL YOU, WILL TRY TO ENTER BY IT AND WILL NOT BE ABLE. ONCE THE OWNER OF THE HOUSE HAS LOCKED THE DOOR, YOU WILL STAND OUTSIDE, KNOCK AT THE DOOR, AND SAY, 'WE ATE AND DRANK WITH YOU, AND YOU TAUGHT IN OUR STREETS.' BUT HE WILL SAY TO YOU, 'I DO NOT KNOW WHERE YOU ARE FROM. GET AWAY FROM ME, ALL YOU UNRIGHTEOUS PEOPLE'. NO MAN CAN SERVE TWO MASTERS. EITHER HE HATES THE ONE AND LOVES THE OTHER, OR HE IS LOYAL TO ONE AND DESPISES THE OTHER. YOU CANNOT SERVE GOD AND WEALTH (MAMMON). THEN JESUS WAS LED INTO THE WILDERNESS BY THE SPIRIT FOR TRIAL BY THE ACCUSER. HE FASTED FOR FORTY DAYS AND WAS HUNGRY. THE ACCUSER SAID, 'IF YOU ARE THE SON OF GOD, TELL THIS STONE TO BECOME BREAD.' BUT JESUS ANSWERED, 'IT IS WRITTEN, "NO ONE LIVES BY BREAD ALONE."' THEN THE ACCUSER TOOK HIM TO JERUSALEM AND PLACED HIM AT THE HIGHEST POINT OF THE TEMPLE AND SAID TO HIM, 'IF YOU ARE THE SON OF GOD, THROW YOURSELF DOWN, FOR IT IS WRITTEN, "HE WILL COMMAND HIS ANGELS TO PROTECT YOU", AND "THEY WILL CARRY YOU WITH THEIR HANDS SO THAT YOUR FOOT WILL NOT STRIKE A STONE."' BUT JESUS ANSWERED HIM, 'IT IS WRITTEN, "YOU SHALL NOT PUT THE LORD YOUR GOD TO THE TEST."' THEN THE ACCUSER TOOK HIM TO A VERY HIGH MOUNTAIN AND SHOWED HIM ALL THE KINGDOMS OF THE WORLD AND THEIR SPLENDOR, AND HE SAID TO HIM, 'ALL THESE I WILL GIVE YOU IF YOU WILL DO OBEISANCE AND REVERENCE ME.' BUT JESUS ANSWERED HIM, 'IT IS WRITTEN, "YOU SHALL REVERENCE THE LORD YOUR GOD AND SERVE HIM ALONE."' THEN THE ACCUSER LEFT HIM. AND WHEN THE DEVIL HAD ENDED ALL THE TEMPTATION, HE DEPARTED FROM HIM FOR A SEASON. FOR WHAT IS A MAN ADVANTAGED, IF HE GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD, AND LOSE HIMSELF, OR BE CAST AWAY. FOR WHAT IS A MAN PROFITED, IF HE SHALL GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD, AND LOSE HIS OWN SOUL?. SHAME ON YOU PHARISEES! FOR YOU CLEAN THE OUTSIDE OF THE CUP AND THE DISH, BUT INSIDE YOU ARE FULL OF GREED AND INCONTINENCE. FOOLISH PHARISEES! CLEAN THE INSIDE AND THE OUTSIDE WILL ALSO BE CLEAN. SHAME ON YOU PHARISEES! FOR YOU LOVE THE FRONT SEATS IN THE ASSEMBLIES AND GREETINGS IN THE MARKETPLACES. SHAME ON YOU! FOR YOU ARE LIKE GRAVES, OUTWARDLY BEAUTIFUL, BUT FULL OF POLLUTION INSIDE. JESUS SAID, 'GO AND TELL JOHN WHAT YOU HEAR AND SEE: THE BLIND RECOVER THEIR SIGHT, THE LAME WALK, LEPERS ARE CLEANSED, THE DEAF HEAR, THE DEAD ARE RAISED, AND THE POOR ARE GIVEN GOOD NEWS'. JESUS SAID, 'GO AND TELL JOHN WHAT YOU HEAR AND SEE: THE BLIND RECOVER THEIR SIGHT, THE LAME WALK, LEPERS ARE CLEANSED, THE DEAF HEAR, THE DEAD ARE RAISED, AND THE POOR ARE GIVEN GOOD NEWS'. THE KINGDOM IS SPREAD OUT OVER THE WHOLE WORLD, AND PEOPLE DO NOT SEE IT. ASK, AND IT WILL BE GIVEN YOU. SEEK, AND YOU WILL FIND. KNOCK, AND THE DOOR WILL BE OPENED. JUDAS ASKED, "HOW DOES ONE BEGIN TO WALK THE WAY?" JESUS ANSWERED, "BY DEVELOPING LOVE AND COMPASSION.". THE KINGDOM IS NOT COMING WITH SIGNS TO BE OBSERVED. THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU. THIS WAY YOU HAVE FOUND, EVEN THE ANGELS DO NOT KNOW IT. IT COMES FROM THE UNITY OF THE FATHER AND THE SON, FOR THEY ARE ONE. TRAVEL THIS PATH YOU HAVE FOUND. IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD, AND THE WORD WAS WITH GOD, AND THE WORD WAS GOD. HE WAS IN THE BEGINNING WITH GOD; ALL THINGS THROUGH HIM CAME INTO BEING. IN HIM WAS LIFE, AND THE LIFE BECAME THE LIGHT OF MEN. AND THE LIGHT APPEARS IN THE DARKNESS, AND THE DARKNESS HAS NOT APPREHENDED IT. BEFORE THAT WHICH IS VISIBLE CAME INTO BEING, ALL EXISTED IN HIM, HE EMBRACES ALL, NOTHING EMBRACES HIM. I AM THE ONE WHO IS WITH YOU ALWAYS. I AM THE FATHER, THE MOTHER, THE SON. I CANNOT BE DEFILED OR CORRUPTED. I HAVE COME TO TEACH YOU THOSE THINGS THAT ARE, AND THOSE THINGS THAT WILL BE, SO THAT THROUGH THIS REVELATION YOU WILL PERCEIVE THE PERFECTION OF HUMANITY. ORIGINAL MAN HAD A SINGLE MIND WITHIN HIM. BE AWARE OF WHICH IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU; THEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO GRASP WHAT IS OUT OF YOUR SIGHT. FOR THERE IS NOTHING HIDDEN THAT WILL NOT BE KNOWN. I (MARY MAGDALENE) SAW THE LORD IN A VISION AND I SAID TO HIM, "LORD, I SAW YOU IN A VISION." HE ANSWERED ME, SAYING "YOU ARE BLESSED BECAUSE YOUR VISION OF ME DID NOT FALTER. WHERE THE MIND IS, THERE IS YOUR TREASURE." I SAID TO HIM, "LORD, WHAT ALLOWS ONE TO SEE A VISION? DO WE SEE IT WITH THE SOUL OR WITH THE SPIRIT?" THE LORD ANSWERED AND SAID TO ME, "ONE SEES NOT THROUGH THE SOUL OR THE SPIRIT, BUT THROUGH THE MIND-WHICH IS BETWEEN THESE TWO." YOU RECOGNIZED SPIRIT AND BECAME SPIRIT. YOU SAW CHRIST, AND YOU BECAME CHRIST. YOU SAW THE FATHER AND YOU WILL BECOME THE FATHER. AND YET, IF YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE THESE THINGS AS YOUR SELF, YOU WILL NOT BECOME WHAT YOU SEE. BUT IF YOU RECOGNIZE YOUR SELF, THAT WHICH YOU SEE, YOU WILL BECOME. THERE WAS A MAN OF GREAT WEALTH WHO SAID TO HIMSELF: "I WILL FILL MY STOREHOUSES WITH ALL MY PRODUCE, AND THEN I WILL BE SECURE." THIS IS WHAT MAN THOUGHT, BUT THAT VERY NIGHT BE DIED. THOSE WHO HAVE EARS TO HEAR, SHOULD HEAR. SENDING OUT HIS DISCIPLES, JESUS SAID, "TALE NO GOLD, NOR SILVER, NOR SOPPER IN YOUR BELTS, NO BAG FOR YOUR JOURNEY, NOR TWO TUNICS, NOR SANDALS, NOR A STAFF; FOR THE LABORER DESERVES HIS FOOD. DO NOT ACCUMULATE EARTHLY POSSESSIONS, WHICH MOTHS AND RUST CAN DESTROY, AND WHICH ROBBERS CAN STEAL. RATHER, STORE UP HEAVENLY TREASURES WHICH CANNOT BE DESTROYED OR STOLEN. FOR WHEREVER YOU HEART IS, THERE IS YOUR TREASURE AS WELL. IT IS EASIER FOR A CAMEL TO GO THROUGH THE EYE OF A NEEDLE THAN FOR A RICH MAN TO ENTER THE KINGDOM OF GOD. TRUTH FINDS THOSE WHO ARE VIRTUOUS AND WISE. THOSE WHO ARE WISE ARE LIKE THE FISHERMAN WHO CAUGHT MANY FISH. HE CHOSE THE LARGEST FISH TO KEEP, AND THREW THE SMALL FISH BACK INTO THE SEA. HOW FORTUNATE IS THE WISE MAN WHO SEEKS AFTER TRUTH. WHEN HE FINDS IT, NO ONE CAN DISTURB HIS PEACE. UNDERSTAND WHAT IS HERE AND NOW, AND YOU ALSO UNDERSTAND THE MYSTERIES. LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF. YOU HAVE HEARD IT SAID THAT, "YOU SHOULD LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AND HATE YOUR ENEMY." BUT I SAY TO YOU, LOVE YOUR ENEMIES AND PRAY FOR THOSEWHO PERSECUTE YOU, SO THAT YOU MIGHT BE CHILDREN OF YOUR FATHER WHO IS IN HEAVEN. FOR I WAS HUNGRY AND YOU GAVE ME FOOD, I WAS THIRSTY AND YOU GAVE ME DRINK, I WAS A STRANGER AND YOU WELCOMED ME, I WAS NAKED AND YOU CLOTHED ME, I WAS SICK AND YOU VISITED ME, I WAS IN PRISON AND YOU CAME TO ME...WHAT YOU DID TO ONE OF THE LEAST OF THESE, MY BRETHREN, YOU DID ALSO TO ME. LOVE YOUR ENEMIES. PRAY FOR THOSE WHO PERSECUTE YOU. YOU WILL THEN BECOME CHILDREN OF YOUR FATHER IN HEAVEN. BLESSED ARE THE MERCIFUL, FOR THEY WILL RECEIVE MERCY. BE CAREFUL THAT YOUR SPIRITUAL PRACTICE IS NOT PUBLIC, SO THAT OTHERS KNOW THAT YOU ARE SPIRITUAL. WHEN YOU GIVE TO CHARITY, DO NOT ANNOUNCE IT LIKE THE HYPOCRITES DO, SO THAT OTHERS MAY PRAISE THEM. THEY ALREADY HAVE THEIR REWARD. DO NOT LET YOUR LEFT HAND KNOW WHAT YOUR RIGHT HAND IS DOING. DO CHARITY IN SECRET, AND YOUR FATHER WILL REWARD YOU IN SECRET. NOT EVERYONE WHO SAYS TO ME "LORD,LORD" WILL BE SAVED, BUT ONLY THOSE WHO DO WORKS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. KEEP AWAY FROM THOSE WHO CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE LEARNED, AND LIKE TO PARADE AROUND IN THEIR FINE VESTMENTS, AND WHO LOVE TO BE NOTICED AND HONORED IN PUBLIC - THOSE WHO TAKE THE SEATS AND HONOR IN THE SYNAGOGUES, AND AT FEASTS. THESE HYPOCRITES STEAL FROM WIDOWS EVEN WHILE THEY SAY LONG PRAYERS. THE JUDGMENT WHICH COMES UPON THEM WILL BE GREAT. LEARN TO HATE THAT HYPOCRISY, WHICH IS PRODUCED BY EVIL INTENTIONS. HYPOCRISY NEVER COMES CLOSE TO TRUTH. IF YOU KNEW OF TO SUFFER, YOU WOULD HAVE THE POWER NOT TO SUFFER. KNOW HOW TO SUFFER, THEN YOU WILL HAVE POWER NOT TO SUFFER. BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO ARE PERSECUTED; THEY WILL REST IN THE LIGHT. I (JOHN) SAW HIS SUFFERING AND COULD NOT BEAR IT. I TURNED AWAY AND WEPT. BUT THE LORD STOOD BEFORE ME IN A VISION OF LIGHT AND SAID, "JOHN, THOSE BELOW US SEE ME AS BEING CRUCIFIED, PIERCED, AND GIVEN BITTERNESS TO DRINK. BUT HEAR ME-THE ONE WHO STANDS BEFORE YOU- AND HEAR WHAT I SAY...IT WAS NOT I WHO WAS ON THE CROSS. MY TRUE BEING IS NOT THE BODY THAT SURROUNDS ME. THEREFORE, I DID NOT SUFFER, NOR WAS I IN ANGUISH AT ANY TIME. THESE PEOPLE DID NOT HARM ME. RATHER, THE RULERS OF THE UNIVERSE DESTROYED MY BODY, AND IT IS FITTING THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE SO. BE MERCIFUL THAT YOU MAY OBTAIN MERCY; FORGIVE THAT YOU MAY BE FORGIVEN. WHAT YOU DO IS WHAT WILL BE DONE TO YOU. AS YOU GIVE, SO IT WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU; AS YOU JUDGE, SO YOU WILL BE JUDGED; AS YOU SERVE, SO WILL SERVICE BE DONE TO YOU; WITH WHAT YOU MEASURE OUT, IT WILL BE MEASURED OUT TO YOU IN RETURN. JUDGE NOT, THAT YOU NOT BE JUDGED. FOR WITH THE JUDGMENT YOU PRONOUNCE, YOU WILL BE JUDGED. AGREE WITH YOUR ADVERSARY QUICKLY WHILE YOU ARE ON THE WAY WITH HIM, LEST YOUR ADVERSARY DELIVER YOU TO THE JUDGE, AND THE JUDGE DELIVER YOU TO HIS OFFICER, AND YOU BE CAST INTO PRISON. AMEN, I SAY UNTO YOU, YOU WILL NOT COME FORTH FROM THERE UNTIL YOU HAVE PAID THE LAST FARTHING. THE SOUL WILL BE PUNISHED...ACCORDING TO TRANSGRESSIONS OF WHICH IT IS GUILTY...THEN THE VIRGIN OF LIGHT WILL BIND THAT SOUL AND HAND IT OVER TO ONE OF HER JUDGES TO HAVE IT CAST INTO A BODY WHICH IS APPROPRIATE FOR ITS CRIMES. WHEN WHAT ANIMATES A PERSON IS REMOVED, THAT PERSON IS CALLED DEAD, AND WHEN WHAT IS ALIVE LEAVES WHAT IS DEAD, THAT WHICH IS ALIVE WILL BE SUMMONED. DO NOT RUN FROM DEATH, BUT SEEK IT OUT. FOR WHEN YOU LOOK AT DEATH CLOSELY YOU WILL DISCOVER WITHIN YOUR SALVATION. FOR NO ONE WHO FEARS DEATH WILL BE SAVED FROM IT. SCORN DEATH AND TAKE THOUGHT OF LIFE! THE SOULS OF EVERY HUMAN GENERATION WILL DIE. WHEN THESE PEOPLE, HOWEVER, HAVE COMPLETED THE TIME OF THE KINGDOM AND THE SPIRIT LEAVES THEM, THEIR BODIES WILL DIE BUT THEIR SOULS WILL BE ALIVE, AND THEY WILL BE TAKEN UP. I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD. DO NOT LET THE WORLD OVERCOME YOU. I HAVE BECOME FREE OF THE WORLD. YOU TOO BECOME FREE OF IT. EVERYONE WHO HAS HEARD AND LEARNED FROM THE FATHER, COMES TO ME. WHEN ALL THE TRIALS OF LIFE ARE ENDED, AND ONE AWAKENS, HE SEES NOTHING LIKE IT WAS BEFORE. SUCH A PATH IS ATTAINED BY THOSE WHO HAVE ENDED IGNORANCE, LETTING IT GO AS IF IT WAS NOTHING MORE THAN A DREAM. NO LONGER DO THEY VALUE THOSE THINGS OF THE MATERIAL WORLD. THEY LLEAVE IGNORANCE BEHIND LIKE SLEEP. BECAUSE YOU HAVE RENOUNCED ALL, AND HAVE ENDURED ALL SUFFERINGS, AND BECAUSE OF YOUR REBIRTH FROM ONE BODY TO THE NEXT, YOU HAVE BECOME PURE LIGHT. YOU WILL ASCEND AND BE KING OF THE KINGDOM OF LIGHT. AND IT CAME TO PASS THAT, THEY'RE ONCE WAS A KING WHO HAD A GREAT FIELD OF BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS OF EVERY KIND ON HIS FIELD, MANY CAME TO HIS FIELD TO GAZE AT THE BEAUTY OF THE FLOWERS ON HIS FIELD, ONE DAY THE KINGS SON WENT INTO HIS FATHERS FIELD AND BECAUSE OF THE BEAUTY OF THE FLOWERS ON HIS FATHERS FIELD HE BECAME DISTRACTED AND GOT LOST, DAYS AND NIGHTS WENT BY AND THE KINGS SON BECAME PAINFULLY THIRSTY AND HUNGRY, ON THE THIRD DAY THE KINGS SERVANTS FOUND THE PRINCE AND BROUGHT HIM BACK TO HIS FATHER, FILLED WITH JOY THE KING ORDERED HIS SERVANTS TO PLANT A FRUIT TREE IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS GREAT FIELD THAT WOULD QUENCH THE THIRST AND HUNGER OF ANY THAT SHOULD EVER GET LOST ON HIS FIELD, WHEN THE KING WENT IN SEARCH OF FRUIT AND FOUND NONE GROWING FROM IT, THE KING SAID TO HIS SERVANTS 'I HAVE COME IN SEARCH FOR FRUIT THAT WOULD QUENCH MY THIRST AND HUNGER AND HAVE FOUND NONE GROWING FROM THIS TREE, CUT IT DOWN, WHY SHOULD IT EXHAUST THE SOIL?, THE KINGS SON WAS WITH HIM WHEN THE KING GAVE HIS ORDER TO HAVE THE FRUIT TREE UPROOTED AND HE SAID TO HIS FATHER, "FATHER, ALLOW IT TO LIVE ONE MORE SEASON, I WILL CARE FOR IT AND CULTIVATE ITS GROUND WITH MANURE SO THAT IT MAY PROVIDE FRUIT IN THE FUTURE, IF NOT, ON THE DAY OF THE HARVEST YOU CAN CUT IT DOWN." WHILE COUNTING HIS FLOCK OF 100 SHEEP, THE SON OF GOD DISCOVERED ONE MISSING. IMMEDIATELY, HE LEFT THE 99 SHEEP IN THE SAFETY OF THE FIRST DAY TO GO IN SEARCH OF THE LOST SHEEP, IT CAME TO BE THAT WHILE THE SON OF GOD WAS IN SEARCH OF THE LOST SHEEP, NIGHT FELL UPON THE 99 SHEEP AND IN THE DARKEST PART OF THE NIGHT THE 99 SHEEP BECAME FRIGHTENED AND SEPARATED INTO VARIOUS GROUPS. ON THE SECOND DAY THE SON OF GOD FOUND HIS LOST SHEEP, THE SON OF GOD CARRIED THE SHEEP IN HIS ARMS AND PLACED THE LOST SHEEP AMONGST THE 99 HE HAD LEFT BEHIND, IT WAS AT THIS MOMENT WHEN THE SON OF GOD FILLED WITH LOVE CALLED OUT TO THE EARTH, AND SAID: "SHARE THIS FEELING OF PEACE WITH ME, FOR MY LOST SHEEP HAS BEEN FOUND." I TELL YOU THIS TRUTH: THERE IS MORE REJOICING IN THE HOUSE OF OUR CREATOR OVER ONE WHO IS RECOVERED BY THE SON OF GOD, THEN OVER 99 WHO REMAINED SAFE ON THE LAND OF OUR CREATOR AND WHO IN THE ABSENCE OF THE SON OF GOD SEPARATED. THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS FOR THE SHEPHERD WHO HAS PLANTED GOOD SEEDS OVER THE LAND THAT OUR CREATOR HAS BLESSED HIM WITH. ON THE NIGHT THE LAW OF OUR CREATOR WAS BROKEN, THE DIVIDER AND HIS FLOCK CORRUPTED THE HOLY FIELD BY PLANTING EVIL SEEDS OVER THE HOLY FIELD AND INTO THE SHADOWS THE DIVIDER AND HIS FLOCK VANISHED, IT CAME TO BE THAT THE NIGHT TURNED TO DAY AND BOTH THE GOOD SEEDS AND THE BAD SEEDS SPRANG UP AND BROUGHT FORTH FRUIT TREES, THAT VERY DAY THE SHEPHERDS ONLY SON, SAW THE FRUITS OVER HIS FATHERS LAND AND CONSUMED WITH THIRST AND HUNGER CONSUMED THE FRUIT BORN OF THE BAD SEED AND DIED, WHEN THE SHEPHERDS SERVANTS WITNESSED WHAT HAD TAKEN PLACE THEY INFORMED THE SHEPHERD AND SAID; "YOUR SON HAS DIED AT THE HANDS OF YOUR ENEMY, HE HAS CORRUPTED YOUR FIELD WITH EVIL SEEDS AND IT HAS BROUGHT FORTH DEADLY FRUIT AND YOUR SON HAS CONSUMED ITS FRUIT AND HAS DIED, WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE US DO, SHOULD WE UPROOT THE EVIL TREES AND DESTROY ITS POISONED FRUITS?", BUT THE SHEPHERD SAID:,"NO, FOR IF THE EVIL TREES IS UPROOTED NOW THE GOOD TREES WILL BE DAMAGED, I WILL ALLOW THEM BOTH TO GROW TOGETHER UNTIL THE DAY OF OUR HARVEST, THE SHEPHERD SAID ONTO HIS SERVANTS "EDUCATE YOUR CHILDREN OF WHICH FRUIT THEY MAY EAT AND WHICH FRUIT WILL CAUSE THEM TO PERISH AND IN THE DAY OF THE HARVEST, I WILL TELL THE REAPERS: "GATHER UP THE BAD FRUIT TREES, BIND THEM IN BUNDLES AND DESTROY THEM", TO MY SERVANTS I WILL SAY:, "GATHER THE FRUITS OF THE GOOD TREES, KEEP THEM SAFE IN MY BARN." IT CAME TO PASS THAT AFTER THE DAY OF THE HARVEST OUR CREATOR BLESSED HIS SHEPHERD WITH ANOTHER SON AND SAID TO HIM "MANY SERVANTS WILL COME TO THE GATES OF YOUR FIELD, BUT FEW WILLS BE ALLOWED TO ENTER." AND IT CAME TO PASS THAT A KING HAD A GREAT FIELD FULL OF BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS OF EVERY KIND, MANY CAME TO HIS FIELD TO GAZE AT THE BEAUTY OF HIS FIELD, ONE DAY THE KINGS SON WENT INTO HIS FATHERS FIELD AND BECAUSE OF THE BEAUTY OF THE FLOWERS, HE GOT DISTRACTED AND GOT LOST, SEVERAL DAYS AND NIGHTS WENT BY AND THE PRINCE BECAME PAINFULLY THIRSTY AND HUNGRY, HE PRINCE REALIZED THAT NOWHERE IN THE FIELD COULD HE FIND A TEE TO QUENCH HIS THIRST OR HUNGER, THE PRINCE CALLED OUT TO THE FOUR WINDS IN THE HOPES THAT HE WOULD BE RESCUED AND AT THAT VERY MOMENT THE KINGS SERVANTS FOUND THE PRINCE AND BROUGHT HIM BACK TO HIS FATHER, THE KING FILLED WITH JOY ORDERED HIS SERVANTS TO PLANT A FRUIT TREE IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS FIELD CAPABLE OF SUSTAINING THE LIFE OF ANYONE THAT SHOULD EVER GET LOST ON HIS FIELD, FOR THREE SEASONS THE KING WENT TO THE CENTER OF HIS FIELD IN SEARCH OF FRUIT FROM THE TREE HE ORDERED TO BE PLANTED AND EACH TIME HE FOUND NONE GROWING FROM IT, THE KING SAID TO HIS SERVANTS "I HAVE COME THREE TIMES IN SEARCH FOR FRUIT AND HAVE FOUND NONE GROWING FROM THIS TREE, WHY SHOULD IT CONTINUE TO EXHAUST THE SOIL?, CUT IT DOWN.", THE KINGS SON WHO WAS WITH HIM WHEN THE KING GAVE HIS ORDER TO HAVE THE FRUIT TREE BE UPROOTED SAID TO HIS FATHER, "FATHER, ALLOW IT TO LIVE FOR ONE MORE SEASON, I WILL CARE FOR IT AND CULTIVATE ITS GROUND WITH MANURE SO THAT IT MAY PROVIDE FRUIT THE NEXT SEASON, IF IT DOES NOT BEAR ANY FRUIT AFTER I HAVE CARED FOR IT, ON THE DAY OF THE HARVEST I WILL HAVE IT DESTROYED."
