to declare the word of God unto my people.

Now, we will compare the word unto a seed.

Now, if ye give place, that a seed may be planted in your heart,

behold, if it be a true seed, or a good seed,

if ye do not cast it out by your unbelief,

that ye will resist the Spirit of the Lord,

behold, it will begin to swell within your breasts;

and when you feel these swelling motions,

ye will begin to say within yourselves —

for it beginneth to enlarge my soul;

yea, it beginneth to enlighten my understanding,

yea, it beginneth to be delicious to me.

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.

and impart of your substance, if ye have,

to those who stand in need —

if ye do not any of these things,

behold, your prayer is vain, and availeth you nothing,

and ye are as hypocrites who do deny the faith.

as ye have had so many witnesses,

therefore, I beseech of you

that ye do not procrastinate the day of your repentance until the end;

behold, if we do not improve our time while in this life,

then cometh the night of darkness wherein there can be no labor performed.
