43 Why have ye transfigured the holy word of God, that ye might bring damnation upon your souls?

44 Behold, look ye unto the revelations of God. For behold, the time cometh at that day when all these things must be fulfilled.

45 Behold, the Lord hath shewn unto me great and marvelous things concerning that which must shortly come at that day when these things shall come forth among you.

46 Behold, I speak unto you as if ye were present, and yet ye are not.

47 But behold, Jesus Christ hath shewn you unto me, and I know your doing; and I know that ye do walk in the pride of your hearts.

48 And there are none, save a few only, who do not lift themselves up in the pride of their hearts, unto the wearing of very fine apparel, unto envying, and strifes, and malice, and persecutions, and all manner of iniquity;

49 And your churches, yea, even every one, have become polluted because of the pride of your hearts.

50 For behold, ye do love money, and your substance, and your fine apparel, and the adorning of your churches, more than ye love the poor and the needy, the sick and the afflicted.

51 O ye pollutions, ye hypocrites, ye teachers, who sell yourselves for that which will canker, why have ye polluted the holy church of God?

52 Why are ye ashamed to take upon you the name of Christ?

53 Why do you not think that greater is the value of an endless happiness, than that misery which never dies, because of the praise of the world?
