Lord an house whereby he could reveal
unto his people the ordinances of his house
and glories of his kingdom & teach the peopl
the ways of salvation for their are certain
ordinances & principles that when they are
taught and practized, must be done in a place
or house built for that purpose this was
purposed in the mind of God before the
world was & it was for this purpose that God
designed to gather together the Jews oft
but they would not it is for the same
purpose that God gathers together the people
in the last ^days^ to build unto the Lord an house to
prepare them for the ordinances & endowments
washings & anointings &c one of the
ordinances of the house of the Lord is Baptism
for the dead, God decreed before the foundation
of the world that that ordinance should
be administered in a house prepared for that
purpose. If a man gets the fulness of God he has
to get [it] in the same way that Jesus Christ obta-
ined it & that was by keeping all the ordin-
ances of the house of the Lord. Men will
say I will never forsake you but will
stand by you at all times but the moment
you teach them some of the mysteries of God
that are retained in the heavens and are
to be revealed to the children of men when
they are prepared, They will be the first
to stone you & put you to death. It was the
same principle that crusified the Lord
Jesus Christ. I will say sumthing about the
Spirits in prision, theire has been much
said about the sayings of Jesus on the cross
to the thief saying this day thou shalt
be with me in paradise. The commentators
