chersfirea Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 but the strength Behold, am but a man, and I have but the strength of a man, and I cannot any longer enforce my commands ; and they have become strong in their perversion; and they are aiike brutal, sparing none, neither old nor young; and they delight in everything save that which is good; and the sufferings of our women and our children upon all the face of this land, doth exceed everything; yea, tongue cannot tell, neither can it be written.And now, my son, I dwell no longer upon this horrible scene. Behold, thou knowest the wickedness of this people ; thou knowest that they are without principle, and past feeling; and their wickedness doth exceed that of the Lamanites. Behold, my son, I cannot recommend them unto God lest he should smite me. But behold, my son, I recommend thee unto God, and I trust in Christ that thou MBT Shoes wilt be saved; and I pray unto God that he would spare thy life, to witness the return of his people unto him, or their utter MBT destruction; for I know that they must perish, except they repent and return unto him; and if they perish, it will be like unto the Jaredites, because of the wilfulness of their hearts, seeking for blood and revenge. And if it so be that they perish, we know that many of our brethren have dissented over unto the Lamanites, and many more will also dissent over unto them; wherefore, write somewhat a few things, if thou art spared; and I shall perish and not see thee; but I trust that Imay see thee soon; for I have sacred records MBT Shoes Clearance that I would driver up unto thee. My son, be faithful in Christ; and may not the things which I have written grieve thee, to weigh thee down unto death, but may Christ lift thee up, and may his sufferings and death, and the shewing his body unto our fathers and his mercy and long suffering, and the hope of his glory and of eternal life,. rest in your mind for ever.
