And measures and matters of The Truth of the "time" we are in ...how "man" ..."thought to change time and times ... Dearly beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, how that one day is with the Lord, as a thousand year, and a thousand year as one day.
The Lord is not slack to fulfil his promise, as some men count slackness: but is patient to us ward, and would have no man lost, but would receive all men to repentance.
creteis@yahoo.com Behold in a dream during the dread nightmare of the dark season ...of the times and time ..of the season of man ...see son of man ...
and i was taken and shown a woman who could sing ...
and her voice was so wonder full ...it was as though one in ten thousand ...
and she was to audition for a choir in Texas ...
and there would be much honor and praise and fame in the UNGodlie world of the worldly ...
and there was a mighty wondering within her ...
and that if she would sing UNGodlie Heathenish worldlie songs ...
and or songs that gave glory to rule and power and rulers of darkness ...
even masked as though for Heavenly things ...
and the woman with the wonder full voice ...must choose ...
evenso it was not shown what she chose ...
and scripture came back to remembrance ...
But the serpent was subtler than all the beasts of the field, which the Lord God had made: and said unto the woman: you, hath God said in deed, you shall not eat of all manner trees in the garden? And the woman said unto the serpent, of the fruit of the trees in the garden we may eat, but of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden ( said God ) see that ye eat not, and see that ye touch it not, lest ye die. Then said the serpent unto the woman: tush ye shall not die: but God doth know that whensoever ye should eat of it, your eyes should be opened, and ye should be as God, and know both good and evil. And the woman saw that it was a good tree to eat of, and lusty unto the eyes, and a pleasant tree for to give understanding. And took of the fruit of it and ate, and gave unto her husband also with her, and he ate. And the eyes of both of them were opened, that they understood how that they were naked. Then they sewed fig leaves together and made them aprons.
And they heard the voice of the Lord God as he walked in the garden in the cool of the day. And Adam hid himself and his wife also from the face of the Lord God, among the trees of the garden. And the Lord God called Adam, and said unto him: where art thou? And he answered: Thy voice I heard in the garden, but I was afraid, because I was naked, and therefore hid myself. And he said: Who told thee that thou wast naked? hast thou eaten of the tree, of which I bade thee that thou shouldest not eat? And Adam answered: The woman which thou gavest to bear me company, she took me of the tree, and I ate. And the Lord God said unto the woman: Wherefore didest thou so? And the woman answered: The serpent deceived me and I ate.
And the Lord God said unto the serpent: because thou hast so done most cursed be thou of all cattle and of all beasts of the field: upon thy belly shalt thou go: and earth shalt thou eat all days of thy life. Moreover I will put hatred between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed. And that seed shall tread thee on the head, and thou shalt tread it on the heel.
And unto the woman he said: I will surely increase thy sorrow, and make thee oft with child, and with pain shalt thou be delivered: And thy lusts shall pertain unto thy husband, and he shall rule thee.
And unto Adam he said: Forasmuch as thou hast obeyed the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee, saying: See thou eat not thereof: cursed be the earth for thy sake. In sorrow shalt thou eat thereof all days of thy life: And it shall bear thorns and thistles unto thee. And thou shalt eat the herbs of the field. In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, until thou return unto the earth whence thou wast taken: for earth thou art, and unto earth shalt thou return.
And Adam called his wife Heva, because she was the mother of all that liveth. And the Lord God made Adam and his wife garments of skins, and put them on them. And the Lord God said: Lo, Adam is become as it were one of us, in knowledge of good and evil. But now lest he stretch forth his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat and live ever. And the Lord God cast him out of the garden of Eden, to till the earth whence he was taken. And he cast Adam out, and set at the entering of the garden Eden, Cherubim with a naked sword moving in and out, to keep the way to the tree of lifeTHE EPISTLE OF ST. JAMES Chpt 4
From whence cometh war and fighting among you: come they not here hence? even of your voluptuousness, that reign in your members. Ye lust, and have not. Ye envy and have indignation, and cannot obtain. Ye fight and war and have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask and receive not, because ye ask amiss: even to consume it upon your voluptuousness. Ye *advouterers, and women that break matrimony: know ye not how that the friendship of the world is enmity to God ward? Whosoever will be friend of the world, is made the enemy of God. Either do ye think that the scripture saith in vain: The spirit that dwelleth in you, lusteth even contrary to envy: but giveth more grace.
Submit your selves to God, and resist the devil, and he will fly from you. Draw nigh to God and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands ye sinners, and purge your hearts ye wavering minded. Suffer afflictions: sorrow ye and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. Cast down yourselves before the Lord, and he shall lift you up. Backbite not one another, brethren. He that backbiteth his brother, and he that judgeth his brother, backbiteth the law, and judgeth the law. But and if thou judge the law, thou art not an observer of the law: but a judge. There is one law giver, which is able to save and to destroy. What art thou that judgest another man?
Go to now ye that say: today and tomorrow let us go into such a city and continue there a year and buy and sell, and win: and yet cannot tell what shall happen tomorrow. For what thing is your life? It is even a vapor that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away: For that ye ought to say: if the Lord will and if we live, let us do this or that. But now ye rejoice in your boastings. All such rejoicing is evil. Therefore to him that knoweth how to do good, and doth it not, to him it is sin
THE FIRST TO THE CORINTHIANS Chpt 11
I commend you brethren that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances even as I delivered them to you. I would ye knew that Christ is the head of every man. And the man is the womans head. And God is Christs head
Therefore holy brethren, partakers of the celestial callings consider the ambassador and high priest of our profession Christ Jesus, which was faithful to him that made him, even as was Moses in all his house. And yet was this man counted worthy of more glory than Moses: In as much as he which hath prepared the house, hath most honour in the house. Every house is prepared of some man. But he that ordained all things, is God. And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a minister, to bear witness of those things which should be spoken afterward. But Christ as a son, hath rule over the house, whose house are we, so that we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of that hope, unto the end.
Wherefore as the *holy ghost saith: today if ye shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts, after the rebellion in the day of temptation in the wilderness, where your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years long. Wherefore I was grieved with that generation and said: They *erre ever in their hearts: they verily have not known my ways so that I sware in my wrath, that they should not enter into my rest. Take heed brethren that there be in none of you an evil heart in unbelief, that he should depart from the living God: but exhort one another daily, while it is called today, lest any of you wax hard hearted through the deceitfulness of sin.
We are partakers of Christ if we keep sure unto the end the first substance, so long as it is said: today if ye hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as when ye rebelled. For some, when they heard, rebelled: how be it not all that came out of Egypt under Moses. But with whom was he displeased forty years? Was he not displeased with them that sinned whose carcasses were overthrown in the desert? To whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest: but unto them that believed not? And we see that they could not enter in, because of unbelief.THE GOSPELL OF ST. MATTHEW Chpt 6
See that ye gather you not treasure upon the earth, where rust and moths corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal. But gather ye treasures to gether in heaven, where neither rust nor moths corrupt, and where thieves neither break up nor yet steal. For where soever your treasure is, there will your hearts be also.
The light of the body is thine eye. Wherefore if thine eye be single, all body shall be full of light. But and if thine eye be wicked then all thy body shall be full of darkness. Wherefore if the light that is in thee, be darkness: how great is that darkness.
No man can serve two masters. For either he shall hate the one and love the other: or else he shall lean to the one and despise the other: ye cannot serve God and *Mammon. Therefore I say unto you, be not *careful for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more worth than meat, and the body more of value then raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither reap, nor yet carry into the barns: and yet your heavenly father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
Which of you (though he took thought therefore) could put one cubit unto his stature? And why care ye then for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They labor not neither spin. And yet for all that I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his royalty was not arrayed like unto one of these. Wherefore if God so clothe the grass, which is today in the field, and tomorrow shall be cast into the furnace, shall he not much more do the same unto you, O' ye of little faith?
Therefore take no thought saying: what shall we eat, or what shall we drink, or wherewith shall we be clothed? After all these things seek the gentiles. For your heavenly father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But rather seek ye first the kingdom of heaven and the righteousness thereof, and all these things shall be ministered unto you.
Care not then for the morrow, but let the morrow care for itself: for the day present hath ever enough of his own travail*Mammon: to serve for gain. *careful: that is full of care.
Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song unto the Lord and said: Let us sing unto the Lord, for he is become glorious, the horse and him that rode upon him hath he overthrown in the sea. The Lord is my strength and my song, and is become my salvation. He is my God and I will glorify him, he is my fathers God and I will lift him up on high. The Lord is a man of war, Jehovah is his name: Pharaos chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea. His jolly captains are drowned in the redd sea, the deep waters have covered them: they sunk to the bottom as a stone. Thine hand Lord is glorious in power, thine hand Lord hath all to dashed the enemy. And with thy great glory thou hast destroyed thine adversaries, thou sentest forth thy wrath and it consumed them, even as stubble. With the breath of thine anger the water gathered together and the floods stood still as a rock, and the deep water congealed together in the midst of the sea.
The enemy said: I will follow and overtake them, and will divide the spoil: I will satisfy my lust upon them: I will draw my sword, and mine hand shall destroy them.
Thou blewest with thy breath and the sea covered them, and they sank as lead in the mighty waters. Who is like unto thee O Lord among gods: who is like thee, so glorious in holiness, fearful, laudable and that showest wonders? Thou stretchedest out thy right hand, and in the earth swallowed them. And thou carriedest with thy mercy this people which thou deliveredest, and broughtest them with thy strength unto thy holy habitation. The nations heard, and were afraid, pangs came upon the Philistines. Then the dukes of the Edomites were amazed, and trembling came upon the mightiest of the Moabites, and all the inhabiters of Canaan waxed faint hearted. Let fear and dread fall upon them through the greatness of thine arm, and let them be as still as a stone: while thy people pass through O Lord, while the people pass through, which thou hast gotten. Bring them in, and plant them in the mountains of thine inheritance, the place Lord which thou hast made for to dwell in, the sanctuary Lord, which thy hands have prepared. The Lord reign ever and all way. For Pharao went in on horseback with his chariots and horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought the waters of the sea upon them. And the children of Israel went on dry land through the midst of the sea. And MirJam a prophetess the sister of Aaron took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women came out after her with timbrels in a dance. And MirJam sang before them: sing ye unto the Lord, for he is become glorious indeed: the horse and his rider hath he overthrown in the sea. Moses brought Israel from the redd sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Sur. And they went three days long in the wilderness, and could find no water. At the last they came to Mara: but they could not drink of the waters for bitterness, for they were bitter. Therefore the name of the place was called Mara. Then the people murmured against Moses, saying: what shall we drink? And Moses cried unto the Lord, and he showed him a tree: and he cast it into the waters, and they waxed sweet.
There he made them an ordinance and a law, and there he tempted them and said: If ye will hearken unto the voice of the Lord your God, and will do that which is right in his sight and will give an ear unto his commandments, and keep all his ordinances: then will I put none of these diseases upon thee which I brought upon the Egyptians, for I am the Lord thy surgeonTHE THIRD BOOK OF ESDRAS Chpt 5
And the priests stood, and had their garments and trumpets, and the Levites, the sons of Asaph had Cymbals, giving thanks and praises unto the Lord, and ordaining as David the King of Israel had ordained. And the song that they did sing unto the Lord, was after this manner: O' sing unto the Lord, for he is gracious, and his goodness upon Israel endureth for ever. And all the people blew out with trumpets, and sung with loud voice, praising the Lord together in the rearing up of the house of the Lord. There also came from among the Priests and Levites the rulers and elders, according to the tribes and kindreds, ( such as had seen the house afore ) to the building of this temple with great cry and great mourning, many also with trumpets and great joy: Insomuch that the trumpets might not well be heard for the weeping and mourning. For the common people blew goodly upon the trumpets.
Then came the enemies of the tribes of Judah and BenJamin, to know what that trumpeting and noise of the *shawmes might be. And they perceived that it was they which were of the captivity, and would build the temple up anew unto the Lord God of Israel. So they went to Zorobabel and Jesua, and to the rulers of the villages, and said unto them: Shall we will build with you also? For we likewise have heard your Lord, and we walk after the same manner, from the days of Asbazareth the King of Assyria, which brought us hither. Then Zorobabel and Jesua and the Rulers of the villages of Israel said unto them: It is not *mete that you should build the temple of our God with us: We ourselves alone will build unto the Lord, like as Cyrus the King of the Persians hath commanded us.
But the Heathen in the land laid themselves against those that were in Jewry, held up the building from them, laid wait upon them privately, stopped such as brought any thing to them, forbade them to build, and hindered those that made them passage, that the building should not be finished: and this continued so long as King Cyrus lived: and so they put off the building for the space of two years, until the reign of King Darius*beiastes (supports, posts?) *shawmes (reed instrument maybe: oboe like)
*mete (worthy)Then sung Judith this song unto the Lord: Began unto the Lord upon tabernettes, sing unto the Lord upon the cymbals. O' sing unto him a new song of thanksgiving, be joyful and call upon his name. It is the Lord that destroyeth wars, even the Lord is his name. Which hath pitched his tents in the midst of his people, that he might deliver us from the hand of all our enemies. Assur came out of the mountains in the multitude of his strength. His people stopped the water brooks, and their horses covered the valleys. He purposed to have burnt up my land, and to slay my young men with the sword.
He would have carried away my children and virgins into captivity, but the Allmighty Lord hurt him, and delivered him into the hands of a woman, which brought him to confusion. For their mighty was not destroyed of young men. It was not the sons of Titan that slew him, neither have the great giants set themselves against him: but Judith the daughter of Merari with her fair beauty hath discomfited him, and brought him to naught. For she layed away her widows garment, and put on the apparel of gladness in the rejoicing of the children of Israel. She anointed her face, and bound up her hair in a *hoove to beguile him. Her slippers ravished his eyes, her beauty captivated his mind, with the sword she smote off his neck. The Persians were astonished at her steadfastness, and the Medes at her boldness. Then howled the armies of the Assyrians, when my simple appeared dry of thirst. The sons of the daughters have pared them through, and slain them as fugitive children: they perished in the battle, for the very fear of the Lord my God. Let us sing a song of thanks giving unto the Lord, a new song of praise will we sing unto our God. Lord, Lord, thou art a great God, mighty in power, whom no man may overcome. All thy creatures should serve thee: for thou spakest but the word, and they were made: thou sentest thy spirit, and they were created, and no man can withstand thy voice. The mountains shall move from the foundations with the waters, the stoney rocks shall melt before thee like wax. But they that fear thee: shall be great with thee in all things. Woe unto the people that rise up against my generation, for the Almighty Lord will avenge himself of them, and in the day of judgement will he visit them. For he shall give fire and worms in to their flesh, that they may burn an feel it forevermore.
After this it happened, that after the victory all the people came to Jerusalem, to give praise and thanks unto the Lord. And when they were purified, they offered all their burnt sacrifices and their promised offerings. And Judith offered all of Holofernes weapons, and all the Jewels, that the people had given her, and the canopy that she took from his bed, and hanged them up unto the Lord. The people was joyful, as the use is: and this joy by reason of the victory, with Judith endured three months.
So after these days every man went home again, and Judith was in great reputation at Bethulia, and right honorably taken in all the land of Israel. Unto her virtue was chastity joined, so that after her husband Manasses died, she never knew a man all the days of her life. Upon the high solemn days she went out with great worship. She dwelt in her husbands house an hundred and five years, and left her handmaiden free, and died, and was buried beside her husband in Bethulia. And all the people mourned for her seven days. So long as she lived, there was none that troubled Israel, and many years also after her death.
The day wherein this victory was gotten, was solemnly holden, and reckoned of the Jews in the number of the holy days, and it is yet greatly holden of the Jews ever since unto this day*hoove (a covering for the head;)
ST. PAUL TO THE ROMANS Chpt 15
We which are strong, ought to bear the frailness of them which are weak, and not to stand in our own conceits. Let every man please his neighbor unto his wealth and edifying. For Christ pleased not himself: but as it is written. The rebukes of them which rebuked thee, fell on me. Whatsoever things are written afore time, are written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scripture, might have hope.
The God of patience and consolation, give unto every one of you, that ye be like minded one towards another after the example of Christ *Jesu: that ye all agreeing together, may with one mouth praise God the father of our Lord Jesus. Wherefore receive ye one another as Christ received us, to the praise of God. And I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers. And let the gentiles praise God for his mercy, as it is written: For this cause I will praise thee among the gentiles, and sing in thy name. And again he saith: rejoice ye gentiles with his people. And again, praise the Lord all ye gentiles, and laud him all nations. And in another place Esaias saith: there shall be the root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the gentiles: in him shall the gentiles trust. The God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing: that ye may be rich in hope through the power of the holy ghost.
I myself am full certified of you my brethren, that ye yourselves are full of goodness and filled with all knowledge, and are able to exhort one another. Nevertheless brethren I have somewhat boldly written unto you, as one that putteth you in remembrance, through the grace that is given me of God, that I should be the minister of *Jesu Christ among the Gentiles, and should minister the glad tidings of God, that the gentiles might be an acceptable offering sanctified by the holy ghost. I have therefore whereof I may rejoice in Christ *Jesu, in those things which pertain to God. For I dare not speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, with word and deed, in mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the spirit of God: so that from Jerusalem and the coast round about unto Illyricum, I have filled all countries with glad tidings of Christ.
So have I enforced myself to preach the Gospell, not where Christ was named, lest I should have built on another mans foundation: but as it is written: To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that heard not, shall understand. For this cause I have been often let to come unto you: but now seeing I have no more to do in these countries, and also have been desirous many years to come unto you, when I shall take my journey into *spaine, I will come to you. I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, after that I have somewhat enjoyed you.
Now go I unto Jerusalem, and minister unto the saints. For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain distribution upon the poor saints which are at Jerusalem. It hath pleased them verily, and their debtors are they. For if the Gentiles be made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is to minister unto them in carnal things. When I have performed this, and have brought them this fruit sealed. I will come back again by you into Spaine. And I am sure when I come, that I shall come with abundance of the blessing of the Gospell of Christ. I beseech you brethren for our Lord Jesus Christs sake, and for the love of the spirit, that ye help me in my business with your prayers to God for me, that I may be delivered from them which believe not in Jewry and that this my service, which I have to Jerusalem, may be accepted of the saints, that I may come unto you with joy, by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed. The God of peace be with you. Amen.*Jesu: Jesus from the Hebrew. *spaine (Spain)
THE FIRST TO THE CORINTHIANS Chpt 14
Labour for love and covet spiritual gifts: and most chiefly for to prophesy. For he that speaketh with tongues, speaketh not unto men, but unto God. For no man heareth him. How be it in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. But he that prophesieth, speaketh unto men, to edifying, to exhortation and to comfort. He that speaketh with tongues, profiteth him self: he that prophesieth edifieth the congregation. I would that ye all spake with tongues: but rather that ye prophesied. For greater is he that prophesieth, than he that speaketh with tongues, except he expound it also: that the congregation may have edifying. Now brethren if I come unto you speaking with tongues: what shall I profit you, except I speak to you, *other by revelation or knowledge, or prophesying, or doctrine?
Moreover when things without life, give sound: whether it be a pipe or an harp: except they make a distinction in the sounds: how shall it be known what is piped or harped? And also if the trumpet give an uncertain voice, who shall prepare himself to fight? Even so likewise when ye speak with tongues, except ye speak words that have signification, how shall it be understood what is spoken? For ye shall but speak in the air.
Many kinds of voices are in the world, and none of them are without signification. If I know not what the voice meaneth, I shall be unto him that speaketh, an alien: and he that speaketh shall be an alien unto me. Even so ye (for as much as ye covet spiritual gifts) seek that ye may have plenty unto the edifying of the congregation.
Wherefore let him that speaketh with tongues, pray that he may interpret also. If I pray with tongues my spirit prayeth: but my mind is without fruit. What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and will pray with the mind also. I will sing with the spirit, and will sing with the mind also.
For else when thou blessest with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned, say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest? Thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified. I thank my God, I speak with tongues more then ye all. Yet had I lever in the congregation, to speak five words with my mind to the information of others rather than ten thousand words with the tongue.
Brethren, be not children in wit. How be it as concerning maliciousness, be children but in wit be perfect. In the law it is written with other tongues, and with other lips will I speak unto this people, and yet for all that, will they not hear me, saith the Lord. Wherefore, tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe: but to them that believe not. Contrariwise, prophesying serveth not for them that believe not: but for them which believe.
If therefore when all the congregation is come together, and all speak with tongues, there come in they that are unlearned or they which believe not: will they not say that ye are out of your wits? But and if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is rebuked of all men, and is judged of every man: and so are the secrets of his heart opened, and so falleth he down on his face, and worshippeth God, and saith that God is with you indeed.
How is it then brethren? When ye come together, every man hath his song, hath his doctrine, hath his tongue, hath his revelation, hath his interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. If any man speak with tongues, let it be two at once or at the most three at once and that by course, and let another interpret it. But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the congregation, and let him speak to him self and to God.
Let the prophets speak two at once, or three at once, and let other judge. If any revelation be made to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace. For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may have comfort. For the spirits of the Prophets are in the power of the Prophets. For God is not causer of strife: but of peace, as he is in all other congregations of the saints.
Let your wives keep silence in the congregations. For it is not permitted unto them to speak: but let them be under obedience, as saith the law. If they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is a shame for women to speak in the congregation. Sprang the word of God from you? Either came it unto you only? If any man think himself a Prophet either spiritual: let him understand, what things I write unto you. For they are the commandments of the Lord. But and if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant. Wherefore brethren covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues. And let all things be done honestly and in order*other (either)
THE EPISTLE OF ST. JAMES Chpt 5
Go to now ye rich men. Weep, and howl on your wretchedness that shall come upon you. Your riches is corrupt, your garments are motheaten. Your gold and your silver are cankered, and the rust of them shall be a witness unto you, and shall eat your flesh, as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together in your last days: Behold the hire of the laborers which have reaped down your fields (which hire is of you kept back by fraud) crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped, are entered into the ears of the Lord Sabbaoth. Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth and in wantonness. Ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter. Ye have condemned and have killed the just, and he hath not resisted you.
Be patient therefore brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold the husbandman: waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience thereupon, until he receive the early and the latter rain. Be ye also patient therefore and settle your hearts, for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. Grudge not one against another brethren, lest ye be *dampned. Behold the judge standeth before the door. Take (my brethren) the Prophets for an example of suffering adversity, and of long patience, which spake in the name of the Lord. Behold we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have known what end the Lord made. For the Lord is very pitiful and merciful.
But above all things my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by earth, neither by any other oath. Let your yee be yee*, and your nay, nay: lest ye fall into hypocrisy. If any of you be evil vexed, let him pray. If any of you be merry, let him sing Psalms. If any be diseased among you, let him call for the elders of the congregation, and let them pray over him, and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord: and the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up: and if he have committed sins they shall be forgiven him.
Knowledge your faults one to another: and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man availeth much, if it be fervent. *Helias was a man mortal even as we are and he prayed in his prayer that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.
Brethren if any of you *erre from the truth and another convert him, let the same know that he which converted the sinner from going astray out of his way, shall save a soul from death, and shall hide the multitude of sins*dampned (dampened, damned?) * yee =yes and nay =no. period. *Helias (Elias)
*erre (error) then is plain; against the very truth and verity (realness) of God and Christ.
