l rise again, and they that are
in their graves shall awake: and they that have kept the commandments
of Christ, and have departed this life in the true faith shall inherit
eternal life, and they, that have died in their sins, and have turned
aside from the right faith, shall go away into eternal punishment.
Believe not that there is any true being or kingdom of evil, nor
suppose that it is without beginning, or self-originate, or born of
God: out on such an absurdity! but believe rather that it is 'the work
