Behold, ye have said that ye could not worship your God

because ye are cast out of your synagogues.

if ye suppose that they have taught you this,

ye do not understand them.

that I will repent,

that I will return to my God.

for that same spirit which doth possess your bodies

at the time that ye go out of this life,

that same spirit will have power to possess your body in that eternal world.
