14c I am he who said, Other sheep have I which are not of this fold, unto my disciples, and many there were that understood me not.
15a And I will show unto this people, that I had other sheep, and that they were a branch of the house of Jacob; and I will bring to light their marvelous works, which they did in my name;
15b yea, and I will also bring to light my gospel, which was ministered unto them, and, behold, they shall not deny that which you have received, but they shall build it up, and shall bring to light the true points of my doctrine; yea, and the only doctrine which is in me;
15c and this I do, that I may establish my gospel, that there may not be so much contention;
15d yea, Satan doth stir up the hearts of the people to contention, concerning the points of my doctrine; and in these things they do err, for they do wrest the Scriptures, and do not understand them;
15e therefore, I will unfold unto them this great mystery; for, behold, I will gather them as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, if they will not harden their hearts; yea, if they will come, they may, and partake of the waters of life freely.
16a Behold, this is my doctrine: Whosoever repenteth and cometh unto me, the same is my church;
16b whosoever declareth more or less than this, the same is not of me, but is against me; therefore, he is not of my church.
17 And now, behold, whosoever is of my church, and endureth of my church to the end, him will I establish upon my Rock, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against him.
18 And now, remember the words of him who is the life and light of the world, your Redeemer, your Lord, and your God. Amen.
