[MUSIC PLAYING]
Observe the performances of the
church, to continue in prayer and supplication unto
God daily, that ye might not enter into temptation. And what shall these
my brethren do? They are despised of all men
because of their poverty, especially by our priests. They have cast us
out of our synagogues which we have labored abundantly
to build with our own hands. They cast us out because
of our exceeding poverty. Now we have no place
to worship our God.
What shall we do? Do ye suppose that ye cannot
worship God save it be in your synagogues only?
Do ye suppose that ye
must not worship God only once in a week? It is well that ye are cast
out of your synagogues, that ye may learn wisdom; for
it is because ye are cast out, that ye are brought to
a lowliness of heart; for ye are necessarily
brought to be humble. And now, because
ye are compelled to be humble blessed are
ye; for a man sometimes, if he is compelled to be
humble, seeketh repentance; and now surely, whosoever
repenteth shall find mercy; and he that findeth mercy
and endureth to the end, the same shall be saved.
And because ye were compelled
to be humble ye were blessed; do ye not suppose that they are
more blessed who truly humble themselves because of the word? Yea, he that truly humbleth
himself, and repenteth of his sins, and endureth to the
end, the same shall be blessed.
