I give unto you a commandment that ye shall do these things.

And if ye shall always do these things blessed are ye, for ye are built upon my rock.

Ye must watch and pray always,

lest ye be tempted by the devil, and ye be led away captive by him.

And as I have prayed among you even so shall ye pray in my church,

among my people who do repent and are baptized in my name.

Behold I am the light;

I have set an example for you.

Ye must watch and pray always lest ye enter into temptation;

for Satan desireth to have you, that he may sift you as wheat.

Pray in your families unto the Father, always in my name, that your wives and your children may be blessed.

And behold, ye shall meet together oft;

and ye shall not forbid any man from coming unto you when ye shall meet together,

but suffer them that they may come unto you and forbid them not;

I give unto you another commandment,

and then I must go unto my Father

that I may fulfil other commandments which he hath given me.

And now behold, this is the commandment which I give unto you,

that ye shall not suffer any one knowingly to partake of my flesh and blood unworthily, when ye shall minister it;

Nevertheless, ye shall not cast him out from among you,

but ye shall minister unto him and shall pray for him unto the Father, in my name;

For ye know not but what they will return and repent, and come unto me with full purpose of heart,

and I shall heal them;

and ye shall be the means of bringing salvation unto them.

I give you these commandments because of the disputations which have been among you.

And blessed are ye if ye have no disputations among you.
