for thou also art under no condemnation, and thy heart is opened, and thy
tongue loosed; and thy calling is to exhortation, and to strengthen the
church continually. Wherefore thy duty is unto the church forever, and this
because of thy family. Amen. |

the world. Amen. |

pray vocally before the world as well as in secret, and in your family,
and among your friends, and in all places. |
|

And, behold, it is your duty to unite with the true church,
and give your language to exhortation continually, that you may receive
the reward of the laborer. Amen. |
