— and the Son of God was the Messiah who should come —

as in the time that he should manifest himself unto the children of men.

which he hath made unto the house of Israel;
and it also containeth many of the prophecies of the holy prophets;
and it is a record like unto the engravings
which are upon the plates of brass,

which he hath made unto the house of Israel;

thou seest — because of the many plain and precious things
which have been taken out of the book,
which were plain unto the understanding of the children of men,
according to the plainness which is in the Lamb of God —

who have gone forth out of captivity,
and have been lifted up by the power of God
above all other nations, upon the face of the land
which is choice above all other lands,
which is the land that the Lord God hath covenanted with thy father
that his seed should have for the land of their inheritance;

that the Gentiles will utterly destroy the mixture of thy seed,
which are among thy brethren.

and smitten them by the hand of the Gentiles,
and after the Gentiles do stumble exceedingly,
because of the most plain and precious parts of the gospel of the Lamb
which have been kept back by that abominable church,
which is the mother of harlots, saith the Lamb —

according to the captivity of the devil, of which I have spoken.

which thou beheld proceeding out of the mouth of the Jew;

the things which were written were plain and pure, and most precious
and easy to the understanding of all men.

are many things which thou hast seen;

unto the house of Israel.

the things which I have written are true.
And thus it is.
Amen.
