Go unto Eastern lands. Bear testimony in every place, unto every people and in their sinagogues: reasoning with the people. Let my servant go with you; and forsake him not, and give him thine instructions: and he that is faithful shall be made strong in every place. And I the Lord will go with you. upon the sick and they shall recover. Return not until I the Lord shall send you. Be patient in afflictions. Ask and ye shall receive.— Knock and it shall be opened unto you. Seek not to be cumbered. Forsake all unrighteousness. Commit not adultery. (A temptation with which thou hast been troubled.)— Keep these sayings true and faithful and thou shalt magnifiy thine office and push many people to , with songs of everlasting Joy upon their heads.
