And he said unto me, Awake; and I awoke, and behold, he stood before me. And he said unto me, Awake, and hear the words which I shall tell thee: for behold, lam come to declare unto you the glad tidings of great joy. For the Lord hath heard thy prayers, and hath judged of thy righteousness, and hath sent me to declare unto thee that thou mayest rejoice; and that thou mayest declare unto thy people, that they may also be filled with joy. For behold, the tim cometh, and is not far distant, that with power, the Lord Om: nipotent who reigneth, which was, and is from all eternity (0 all eternity, shall come down from Heaven, among the clil- dren of men, and shall dwell ina tabernacle of clay, and shal go forth amongst men, working mighty miracles, such as he ling the sick, raising the dead, causing the lame to walk, the blind to receive their sight, and the deaf to hear, and curing all manner of diseases; and he shall cast out Devils, or the evil spirits which dwelleth in the hearts of the children of mcr lo, he shall suffer temptations, and pain of body, hunget; hirst, and fatigue, even more than man can suffer, except lt e unto death: for behold, blood cometh from every pore, ° great shall be his anguish for the wickedness and the aboml nations of his people.

Yet the Lord God saw that his people were a stiffnecked peo- \ ple, and he appointed unto them a law, even the law of Moses, And many signs, anid wonders, and types, and shadows. shewed he unto them, concerning his coming; and also Holy Prophets spake unto them concerning his coming; and yet they hardened their hearts, and understood not that the law of Moses availeth nothing, except it were through the atonement of his blood; and even if it were possible that little children could sin, they could not be saved; but I say unto you, they are blessed: for behold, as in Adam, or by nature they fall, even Soithe blood of Christ atoneth for their sins. And moreover, I say unto you, that there shall be no otber name given, nor no other way nor means whereby salvation can come unto the children of men, only in and through the name of Christ, the Lord Omnipotent.
