40 Yea, his garments must be purified until they are cleansed from all stain through the blood of Him of whom it hath been spoken by our fathers which should come to redeem His people from their sins.
41 "And now I ask of you my brethren, How will any of you feel if ye shall stand before the bar of God, having your garments stained with blood and all manner of filthiness?
42 "Behold, what will these things testify against you?
43 "Behold, will they not testify that ye are murderers? Yea, and also that ye are guilty of all manner of wickedness?
44 "Behold, my brethren, do ye suppose that such an one can have a place to sit down in the kingdom of God with Abraham, with Isaac and with Jacob? And also all the holy prophets whose garments are cleansed and are spotless, pure and white?
45 "I say unto you, nay, except ye make our Creator a liar from the beginning, or suppose that He is a liar from the beginning; Or also, ye cannot suppose that such an one can have place in the kingdom of heaven, But they shall be cast out, for they are the children of the kingdom of the devil.
46 "And now behold I say unto you my brethren, if ye have experienced a change of heart, And if ye have felt to sing the song of redeeming love, I would ask, can ye feel so now?
47 Have ye walked, keeping yourselves blameless before God?
48 Could ye say, if ye were called to die at this time, within yourselves that ye have been sufficiently humble?
49 That your garments have been cleansed and made white through the blood of Christ which will come to redeem His people from their sins?
50 "Behold, are ye stripped of pride? I say unto you, if ye are not, ye are not prepared to meet God.
