Verily I say unto you concerning your brethren who have been afflicted and persecuted and cast out from their the land of their . I the Lord have Suffered the affliction to come upon them wherwith they have been afflicted in consequence of their transgressings— yet I will own them and they Shall be mine in that day when I shall come to make up my Jewels. therfore they must needes be Chastened and tryed eaven as Abraham who was commanded to offer up his only Son. for all those who will not endure [p.
