to forgive our Brother on ther first intimation of repentance
and asking forgiveness for our Heavently Father will be equilly
as merciful unto us also we ought to be willing to repent
of ^and confess^ all of our own sins and keep Nothing back and Let
the be humble and not be , and beware
of pride and not seek to excell one above another but act
for each others good and honirably make mention of each
others names ^in prayer^ before the Lord and before our fellow men
do not back bite or devour our brother. The Elders of Israel
should seek to learn by precept & example in this late age
of the world and be oblieged to learn ery thing we know
by sad experience trust the remainder of the Twelve will
learn wisdom & not follow the example of those who have
fallen. When the Twelve or any other witness of Jesus Christ
stands before the congregations of the earth and they preach
in the power and demonstration of the Holy Ghost and the
people are asstonished and confounded at the doctrin and
say that that man has preached a powerful discourse,
a great sermon then let that man or those men take
care that they do not ascribe the Glory unto themselves but
be careful that they are humble and ascribe the praise &
Glory to God and the Lamb for it is by the priesthood and the Holy Ghost that they have power
thus to speak, who art thou O man but dust, and
from whom dost thou receive thy power and blessings but
from God Then let the Twelve Apostles and Elders of Israel
observe this
key and be wise, ye are not sent out to be
taught but to teach. Let every man be sober be be
vigilent and let all his words be received with Grace
