for they are the children of the kingdom of the devil.

whosoever denieth this is a liar and a child of the devil.

And now my beloved brethren, I say unto you,
can ye withstand these sayings;
yea, can ye lay aside these things,

and setting your hearts upon the vain things of the world, upon your riches?

doth not watch over them,
that the wolves enter not and devour his flock?

doth he not drive him out?
Yea, and at the last, if he can, he will destroy him.
