The sign of Peter was, to repent & be baptized
for the remission of sins, inowith the promise tof the
gift of the Holy Ghost & in no other way is
the gift of the Holy Ghost obtained. [Acts 2:38] Their is a
difference between the Holy Ghost & the gift of the
Holy Ghost. Cornelius received the Holy Ghost before
he was Baptized which was the convincing power
of God unto him of the truth of the gospel, but
he could not receive the gift of the Holy Ghost
untill after he was Baptized, [Acts 10:44-48] & had he not taken
this sign [or] ordinances upon him the Holy Ghost
which convinced him of the truth of God would
have left him, untill he obeyed these ordin-
ances & received the gift of the Holy Ghost by the
laying on of hands according to the order
of God he could not have healed the sick or
command an evil spirit to come out of a
man & it obey him for the spirit might
say to him as he did to the sons of Scavey
Peter I know & Christ I know but who
are ye [Acts 19:13-15]

It matereth not whether we live long
or short after we come to a knowlede of these princi-
ples & obey them. I know that all men will be
damedned if they do not come in the way which God
has appointed

As concerning the resurrection I will
merly say that all men will come from the grave
as they layie down, whether old or young their
will not be added unto ther stature one cubit neither
taken from it. All being raised by the power of God
having the Spirit of God in their bodies & not Blood
Children will be enthroned in the presence of God
& the Lamb with bodies of the same stature that
were on earth. Having been redeemed by the
Blood of the Lamdb they will there enjoy a fulness
of that light Glory & intelligence which is receiv-
ed in the celestial kingdom of God. "Blessed are the
dead who die in the Lord, for they rest from their [Revelation 14:13]
