[1] [2] [3]I had read these things which were engraven upon the plates of brass [4]by the Spirit are all things made known unto the prophets [5]the house of Israel, sooner or later, will be scattered upon all the face of the earth [6]after they shall be nursed by the Gentiles, and the Lord has lifted up his hand upon the Gentiles and set them up for a standard, and their children have been carried in their arms, and their daughters have been carried upon their shoulders . . . for thus are the covenants of the Lord with our fathers [7] [8]after our seed is scattered the Lord God will proceed to do a marvelous work among the Gentiles . . . unto the making known of the covenants of the Father of Heaven unto Abraham, saying, In thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed [9]Wherefore, the Lord God will proceed to make bare his arm in the eyes of all the nations, in bringing about his covenants and his gospel unto those who are of the house of Israel [10]he will bring them again out of captivity, and they shall be they shall know that the Lord is their Savior and their Redeemer [11]the blood of that great and abominable church, which is the whore of all the earth, shall turn upon their own heads; for they shall war among themselves, and the sword of their own hands shall fall upon their own heads . . . they shall fall into the pit which they digged to ensnare the people of the Lord . . . all that fight against Zion shall be destroyed . . . the time cometh speedily that Satan shall have no more power over the hearts of the children of men . . . he will preserve the righteous by his power, the righteous need not fear . . . blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke must come . . . A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you [12]For the time speedily shall come that all churches which are built up to get gain, and all those who are built up to get power over the flesh, and those who are built up to become popular in the eyes of the world [13]and those who seek the lusts of the flesh and the things of the world, and to do all manner of iniquity; yea, in fine, all those who belong to the kingdom of the devil are they who need fear, and tremble, and quake; they are those who must be brought low in the dust; they are those who must be consumed as stubble [14] [15]the Holy One of Israel must reign in dominion, and might, and power, and great glory . . . he numbereth his sheep, and they know him [16] [17]because of the righteousness of his people, Satan has no power . . . all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people shall dwell safely in the Holy One of Israel if it so be that they will repent [18]a man must be obedient to the commandments of God . . . if ye shall be obedient to the commandments, and endure to the end, ye shall be saved at the last day
