36. But now, in these last days, I
have condescended to visit the earth with my holy Angels, in a more accessible manner than
I ever before have done; by reason that the foundation and order of my kingdom is now
completed thereon.
37. But if souls refuse to hearken
to my word, earth's cup of judgment is filled to running over, and this she shall surely
drink, saith the God of Heaven.
38. And I do require, saith the
Lord, that all nations, and in a special manner, those calling themselves civilized and
christianized, cultivate the principles of peace, at home and abroad, by sea and by land.
39. Would ye be more willing to
believe this, my requirement, should I bury your fleets in the bosom of the deep, and
sweep your land forces from the face of the earth by pestilential diseases?
40. Like causes produce like
effects, throughout all created things: principles of peace produce their like, and
principles of war their like. War and bloodshed among the objects of my creation, are
entirely contrary to every precept or example, ever taught by my blessed Son while on
earth; they have proceeded from no other source than from man's fallen nature.
41. If mankind will learn in mercy,
they will not be compelled to hearken in judgment: but they must speedily learn to hearken
to my voice, where they never have, or they cannot escape the awful stroke they have
merited.
42. And those who stand as heads and
rulers of the nations, consider well; feel not yourselves too great and high to read this
plain, but solemn warning, and consider well every sentence therein contained; for by it
ye shall shortly be judged in the eternal world. And, as ye treat this warning so shall
ye, in like manner, be treated.
43. If ye humble yourselves, and
counsel your people to do the same, by ceasing from violence and injustice, dealing
uprightly one with another, laboring so far as is in your power, to suppress all haunts of
infamy and lewdness, I will notice you in mercy for the same: and when my judgment's are
rolling through your lands, you may, with confidence, pour forth your souls in prayer to
Me for mercy.
44. But if you slight, disregard, or
contemptuously treat this my word, and regard it not yourselves, nor counsel others so to
do, in the days of your calamity you will pour out your cries to Me in vain, saith the
Lord.
45. And let these, the forewarning
words of kindness, sink deep in every heart; read them in your palaces, and practice them
in your courts; and keep this volume sacred, throughout your realms.
46. And again, hear my words saith
your God; Whosoever shall destroy this book, out of contempt, derision or ridicule, I will
blot out their names from the book of my mercy, and mete to them their portion in [the
place of] eternal misery, where torments shall be their food, and the gall of bitterness
their drink; for the mouth of the Lord of hosts hath spoken it.

24. And now, my last and closing
word in this sacred and solemn Roll of my mercy, I do send forth to all nations, kindreds,
tongues and people, that dwell upon the face of the whole earth.
25. As you deal with one another, so
will your God deal with you; as you treat this, his sacred and solemn word, so will He
treat you, in the dispensation of his judgment, and of his mercy. As you regard the laws
of nature herein required to be kept, so will He regard you.
26. As you regard the law of grace,
or order of his new creation herein required to be kept, by all who feel their souls
called upon to advance forward into this perfect order, so will his Almighty hand regard
you, with his blessing and protection.
27. As you regard the requirement of
Me, your God, respecting the reading of this solemn Roll of my word, and Book of
everlasting truth, to the inhabitants of earth, in your solemn assemblies, so
will the Lord your God, in the day of his heaviest visitation in judgment, regard, and
cause his holy Angels to regard you.
28. As you regard, and treat the
operations of my spirit, which shall go forth abroad in the world, of which I have before
told you, so shall you be treated, by the over-ruling hand of your God.
29. According as you believe and
obey, or disbelieve and disobey, the words contained in this Sacred Roll [and Book,] so
shall the sincerity of your cries and lamentations, in the day that you are constrained to
pour them forth for my mercy, be regarded or disregarded by your God.
30. And according to the zeal,
enterprise and sincerity of such as are required to correctly translate and circulate this
Book through different nations and languages, so shall their days of my notice, in peace
and blessing, be prolonged.
31. It is my requirement, saith the
Lord, that in two years from the commencement of the year One thousand eight hundred
and forty four, copies of this, MY SOLEMN WARNING, be circulated
throughout all professed christendom on the face of the whole earth; and as far among the
heathen nations, as missions for civilization and for instruction have been extended.
32. And so far as the inhabitants of
the earth regard, in truth, the sacred requirements contained in the holy scriptures, and
in this my Sacred Roll, now sent forth directly from my eternal throne, in the age and day
in which they live, so far are they justified in my sight.
33. And by laboring, as fast as
possible, to settle all feelings of collision, both in their own realms and kingdoms, [and
with other nations,] without hostilities being commenced, or blood being shed, and to
cease learning the arts of war, and cultivate the principles of peace, they will, so far,
stay the heavy judgments which are already poured out without mixture, into the cup of the
wrath of my indignation, to be sent forth upon the earth.
34. But this effort to do away the
cause of war, and establish conciliatory measures, that justice, in all cases, may be
done, and the effusion of blood, and the destruction of human life be prevented, I
require, saith the Lord, should be made by nations, as well as by individuals.
35. And so far as mankind turn their
attention to cultivate the soil and procure their subsistence by their own honest
industry; so far will they evidently feel, as nations, the blessings of an over-ruling
providence smiling upon them.
36. But let all nations and kingdoms
remember, saith the God of Heaven, that they have advanced in wickedness, against the laws
of their God and Creator, on to the very last stage in which his Almighty hand, in offers
of mercy, can he extended towards them.
37. And if they refuse, as nations,
to hearken and take warning, sure destruction is their certain and final doom. Herein is
contained my word, the only true GOD, the ALMIGHTY
POWER of Heaven and earth, the Over-ruling and Great first
Cause of all created things. The GOD who was, the GOD who is, through endless worlds made known.
38. Therefore, unto that God give
thanks, whose omniscient eye is not confined to certain limits of time and space.
39. Trouble ye not the little few
from whence this, my word, at my command, has now come forth: for I, the God of all,
have commanded their seclusion, as a body, for a short season, from all public gaze and
throng; that I may scourge them in my mercy, and teach them how, in tribulation's vale, to
walk softly before Me their God.
40. Trouble ye not the mortal hand,
or Instrument of flesh and blood, through whom I caused my holy and mighty Angel of
eternal light, power and truth, to move and guide the pen in truth to write this, my Holy
and Sacred Roll, for mortal eyes to view; for he is but mortal flesh and blood, like unto
each one of you.
41. No honor there belongs, but that
of obeying Me, the Lord his God, regardless of all other personal views or consequences.
Holy and sacred things I do require, saith the Lord, to be kept holy and sacred, practiced
in both heart and hand; and not to be made the daily subject of comment, yet still
unheeded.
42. But when souls converse together
on sacred subjects, let them be sincere in heart, possessing a degree of fear and
reverence to that God by whom they were created, and before whose eternal throne of
judgment and true justice, each soul must soon appear.
43. And thus endeth the Roll, sent
forth from Me, the God of Heaven and earth, consigned to all possessing mortal clay, saith
the AL FIŽ NO of all creation, the Beginning and the Ending;
even so, eternally it shall stand, Amen.

11. As a new era from the Lord God
of Heaven with all the inhabitants of earth, hath now commenced, and no human wisdom or
mortal power, by natural calculation, can tell the order of his work, any further than He
sees fit in his own wisdom, to reveal it unto mortals, that they may be prepared, day by
day, to do his will and pleasure; and then they are sure that his protection will
overshadow them, and they will run and not be weary; yea, they will walk in the
commandments of their God, and faint not, saith the Holy Angel.
12. What God now requires of the
inhabitants of the earth, is to return immediately to the strictness of the law and order
of nature, in all their goings forth. This you can all easily understand; it is that which
is required in your Sacred Bibles, and that which is required in this Sacred Roll; that
is; Deal justly, love mercy, walk humbly, fear God and keep his commandments; do by others
as you would have them do unto you; labor to dwell in peace, and break off as fast as
possible, from the practice of going to war, and shedding each other's blood.
13. Indulge not the vile passions of
nature, further than is necessary to propagate your own offspring. And cease, says the
Angel, from that habit which is accursed in the sight of your God, of keeping houses for
debauchery and prostitution.
14. For I, the Angel of the
Almighty, will surely mark all such places for utter destruction, if they repent not at
the warning of their God, by ceasing from these habits of abomination.
15. Let mortals, before judging or
condemning, candidly read this Sacred Book from beginning to end; then pause, and consider
whether it contradicts, in any way, the sacred writings of the scripture, or is in any way
prejudicial to the principles of your Lord and Savior, in his first appearing; or in any
way tends to operate against the principles of justness, morality, virtue, uprightness and
goodness, or the well being of any good and wholesome society.
16. I proclaim to all people, saith
the Angel, that this is written as handed unto me from the throne of the Almighty. I have
not suffered the inspired writer to have recourse to any books, save the Bible, to
transcribe those passages of scripture, word for word, here inserted, as the Lord
commanded me to have done, that mankind might see, in substance, what He required of them
in past dispensations, and how exceedingly contrary to his requirements they had gone.
17. But I have compelled the
Instrument to draft this, word for word, as I read it unto him, as ye would transcribe a
writing by the sight of your natural eyes; save the former is brought to the view and
hearing of the spirit yet in a mortal body, by the immediate influence and interposition
of the Almighty, (through us, his holy Angels;) while the latter is transcribed by the
direction of the natural organs of sight only.
18. But the sufferings of soul that
God requires instruments to pass through, to prepare them for this holy and sacred
calling, of speaking or writing by the immediate influence of direct revelation, is that
which no tongue or pen can correctly describe.
19. For they who are called to heavy
duties in this line, saith the Angel, are required to feel an inexpressible something, to
them the nearest like a consuming fire or breath, which runneth all over and through them,
both soul and body, until they have done the duty that God requireth of them [in that
line.]
20. But mortals are not allowed to
make these things matters of speculation, although they appear to every human being,
strange and unaccountable, especially so, at their first acquaintance; and always to those
who possess any degree of the fear of God, or the presence of his Angels, strikingly
solemn, though many times cheerful.
21. This much, says the Angel, I was
required by the Almighty, at this time, to make known to the children of men, respecting
this strange, and, (to mortals,) singular manifestation that He has commenced on the earth
in these latter days.

1. Bow down, all ye inhabitants of
earth; hearken and hear the word of the living God. For lo! I am an holy Prophet of the
Lord, who in ancient time, prophesied many years, of the purposes of God that would in
after days take place; and because it did not come to pass immediately, the inhabitants of
the earth disbelieved the warnings of God, and mocked and derided his mercy unto their
needy souls, and would not be persuaded to believe, till the flood came and swept them
from the face of the earth.
2. But verily, God wrought by means
of his own choosing, and at his own appointed time; and all nations, kindreds and people,
were compelled, by his judgments, to believe that his word was to be listened to and
obeyed: for none, save the righteous few that were sheltered in the ark, were saved from
the flood of waters that He sent upon the face of the whole earth, to destroy his
creation, both man and beast, because of the abominations that were in her.
3. Therefore, be not likened unto
those who lived in the past ages of the world, by refusing to comply with his terms of
equity and justice, lest He again stretch out his heavy hand of judgment, and ye suffer
like unto them; But lend a listening ear unto the sacred warnings which the Lord my God
hath seen fit, through his tender mercy, to unfold in these last days, to the nations,
that they may repent, believe and obey; that ye may escape the second flood, (though not
of waters,) that He hath designed to send upon the abominable and polluted of this world.
4. For verily, as the Lord, in the
days of old, spake unto the children of men through mortal clay, even now He doth, by the
mouths of holy messengers, make known his decrees; and as truly as He fulfilled his
purposes in former ages of the world, so true He will bring about every decree that has
been spoken by the mouths of Prophets in this, his last display of his grace to the
inhabitants of earth.
5. Therefore be persuaded to fear
God and love mercy, that wisdom may dwell within your hearts, that ye may not be left to
reject the word of the Almighty God, to your own destruction. For surely as the Lord has
spoken by me, He hath written this Holy Roll and Book of warnings and instructions to the
nations of the earth, that they may be left without a cloak to hide their iniquities, when
He, by the aid of Eternal Wisdom, shall accomplish the work which is already begun.
6. How can frail mortals think to
change the purposes of God, or alter the least command He has given to his creatures? And
if any slight this, his word of warning and invitation unto them, because it did not come
in a way that is pleasing to the carnal senses of vain mortals, then they must inevitably
fall under loss, and be accountable for this, as all other transgressions.
7. But suffer not, O frail man, thy
immortal soul to be guided by a spirit of opposition, or incline thy heart to the vain
clamor of the caviler upon this solemn and sacred truth of the Most High God; but deal
with the same, in that way that ye are willing to give an account for in the day of
judgment.
8. And think not to veil thy doings
from the All-seeing eye of Jehovah, who watches around the whole human family, as a tender
parent watches his own household. Neither flatter yourselves that this is the planning of
mortal man, to obtain a high name, or gain applause; for verily it was the express command
of the Almighty: and in his solemn and holy fear, through tribulation and sufferings it
has been written, to obey his requirement.
9. Again I warn all who are favored
with a privilege of seeing or hearing this Holy Roll, that they handle it not without the
fear of God, nor treat it with levity; for verily the Lord will not hold guiltless those
who reject this, his offer of mercy unto them.
10. The Lord hath purposed to make
an end of sin, and to put down every system of Antichrist. And He hath already established
in his Zion upon earth, a permanent foundation, where his holy fear is kept and his
righteous laws maintained. So let the solemn feelings of your souls be increased, by this
Holy Roll of light and truth; and let it be an ensign to the inhabitants of earth,
throughout every generation; that the designed purposes of God in blessing may be
fulfilled, and lasting good gained.
11. This is the word of the ancient
Prophet Noah: and if the Lord failed not to speak through me in former days, I am still
inspired with the same holy power, alive in the spirit, and persevering in the work of the
Eternal Father. And by his spirit I have written this short word of tender charity and
love to the kindreds of the earth.
12. For the powers of earth shall be
shaken; truth shall stand, and falsehood shall flee as dew before the sun. Though kingdoms
and cities be dashed in pieces, and rent as a filthy garment, yet not one soul that walks
in the true fear of the Lord, shall perish.

1. Thus saith the holy Angel,
Beware, all ye children of men, how ye judge these things; for ye know not that in this,
ye handle living embers, which may yet become your trouble; for God is not to be mocked,
nor his word and work trodden under feet of men; for truly He has begun to work his
strange work, and to fulfill his act, his strange act; therefore be ye not mockers lest
your bands be made strong.
2. For lo! I work a work in your day
which many will in no wise believe, although a man, yea, and although the voice of God
declare it unto them. Therefore shall they be given up to hardness of heart to believe a
lie.
3. And thus will the Lord suffer
strong delusions to come upon those who seek to climb to Heaven some other way, save by
that which God has laid out for all souls; yea, strong delusions, that they may believe a
lie, and in the end fall under the condemnation of their own sins, which have not gone, in
mercy, beforehand to judgment, but followed after, to condemnation and wrath.
4. So be warned, all ye children of
men, who may hereafter be favored to read the solemn word of God, given in great mercy and
loving kindness to the inhabitants of the earth, who wander upon every high hill of
imagination concerning the things of God; and know not that they must come down into the
lowest valley of humiliation and self-reproach, even like the prodigal son, ere they can
find God or his infinite mercy.
5. So again do I the holy Angel of
eternal truth, solemnly and in the fear of God my Heavenly Father, warn all, as ye wish to
be treated in the day when the fierceness of his wrath shall deluge the earth, and its
inhabitants; I say, as ye wish to be treated in this eventful day, which is now at hand,
so in like manner treat ye the word which He giveth unto you;
6. And if ye cannot comprehend it,
neither wish to become enlightened in the matter, take heed that ye do not rashly judge or
oppose it; lest ye be found fighting even against God, and his holy work.
7. And this is my solemn warning
unto one and all who may hereafter be favored with the word of God, sent forth directly
from his mouth; wherein are contained his mind and will, and also his positive commands to
the children of men; a solemn warning which will yet meet many of you in judgment.
From the holy and proclaiming Angel of Eternal truth.

1. I am a holy Prophet of the Lord,
sent forth by his mighty hand, to witness the work which He is about to perform in the
earth: for the time hasteneth when the power of salvation will be sounded in his loving
mercy, to every son and daughter of his creation. I was a true Prophet of the Lord when I
inhabited mortal clay, and I still remain the Lord's Prophet.
2. Lo, all ye nations, give ear
while the truth of the living God is sounded in your ears: for his sacred word He has sent
forth in his Holy Roll. This I did witness, and this I saw before it was delivered to
mortals on the earth; and know it contains the sacred truths of the living God, written by
his own hand and sealed with true wisdom and love.
3. Ho, all ye people who dwell upon
the face of the whole earth; know ye the Lord is performing a work by mighty signs and
wonders. But marvel ye not at this; although his word will go forth as fire in the midst
of stubble, to destroy all that is corruptible or unclean in his sight, yet know ye, it is
by his All-righteous hand; for in his loving mercy hath He condescended to send his word
unto you.
4. But with a warning voice do I
warn every soul, when ye receive this sacred and holy word of salvation, to consider well
from whom it was sent forth, and for what purpose it was intended.
5. It is not to build up the pride
of self-exalted man, and set one above another; but it is to set free oppressed souls, and
remove the yoke of bondage from their necks, that they may obtain true freedom and
salvation; this He hath intended for every soul.
6. There will be various opinions
concerning the Lord's work, but this does not alter it: He will do his work in his own
time, in a manner of his own choosing. I say, let every soul beware how they slight,
misuse or destroy this sacred word of the living God. If there be any that do these
things, his judgments shall follow them; but unto those who give a listening ear and a
heart to obey, the blessings of the living God shall be abundant.
7. As a friend to the lost children
of men, and in love to the Father of light, have I written at this time; that it may be
known that we, the Prophets, foresaw this very work, long ere this time; and now we do
make it manifest to those who dwell on the earth, and in a way of God's own choosing.

1. Thus saith the holy Angel,
I will sound my ter're vac' le o' ne trumpet to the nations of the earth, in my own
appointed time; and they shall hear the sound of this ever blessed gospel, for it shall be
sounded throughout all the earth. For lo, the inhabitants thereof are laden with sin and
iniquity, and fierce judgments are awaiting them.
2. Therefore, saith the Lord, my
word shall surely go forth from my Zion on earth, to the inhabitants of a sinful world;
that they may take warning thereby, and be awakened before my heavy judgments roll on. For
lo, the inhabitants of earth are filled with sin and abomination; and if they hearken not
to my warning voice when they hear the sound thereof, I will meet them with heavy
judgments, for these shall roll and roll through the land, in my own appointed time, and
in the way of my own choosing, and they shall sweep down the haughty nations of the earth;
yea, the wicked and rebellious shall feel my over-flowing scourge, saith the Almighty.
3. O hearken again ye children of
men, and give heed to my warning voice, while I entreat you in mercy and loving kindness;
O hearken and give ear to my solemn warnings, lest my heavy judgments fall upon you. For I
will, in my own time, visit the earth; yea, through every empire, kingdom and city, shall
my holy word be sounded; for I am the Lord God of Heaven and earth, and all nations shall
bow before Me, and tremble at my presence.
4. O ye proud nations of the earth,
thou wicked generation; shall I suffer you to remain on my footstool, in your corruptions?
I tell you, nay; I will cut you off from the face of the earth; I will send forth famine
and pestilence to destroy you; I will consume the nobles of the earth; I will destroy and
lay low all that do not fear my name, saith the God of Heaven; I will not spare those who
call on my name, and are not doers of my work. Surely, I have always had chosen witnesses
on earth, and still have, even to this day, unto whom I do reveal my holy will; and all
nations shall bow thereunto.
5. O hearken again unto my voice,
and delay not; for the great day of my visitation is come. Ye may think ye lie down in
safety, but I will cause you to rise up under judgment; for with heavy judgments I will
visit you, that you may know that the great I AM speaketh not in vain; but my warning
voice I send forth unto you, that ye may understand and do my holy will.
6. Verily I say unto you, Remember,
the prophets of old I sent forth with my own hand, to warn the people; but they hearkened
not unto Me the God of Heaven. Therefore I cut them off from my holy lan'se va' ne, and
from the face of the earth; and even so I will do in this visitation to man.
7. For I will send forth my word,
and declare unto them, that all nations shall have an offer of salvation, which is free
for all souls; and they shall hear the sound thereof, for this I have declared from the
beginning; and I created man a rational being, capable of choosing the way of life, which
leadeth to happiness, or the way of death, which leadeth to misery. Therefore I say unto
you, harden not your hearts against Me your Creator. For I have sent forth my spirit to
the inhabitants of the earth, to strive with man, that he might, if he would, receive
proffered mercy; for surely my judgments are pending; yea, kingdoms, thrones and
dominions, shall fall at my hand, and desolation fill the land.
8. The earth shall tremble and
quake, the seas roar, and foaming billows shall sweep over the mighty deep; yea, I will
destroy in my own time, kingdoms and nations; and the high and nobles of the earth I will
lay low. I will not stay my hand nor lighten my judgments, saith the Almighty, unless ye
give ear to my solemn warnings.
9. O ye wicked and perverse
generation! how long can ye remain in darkness, groping in sin and iniquity at the risk of
your final salvation! For surely my word has gone forth in ages past, and remains
unalterable, even to this day. Though the Heavens and earth pass away, my word shall not
fail; but I will, in my own time, increase my judgments according to the abominations and
wickedness that are in the land.
10. I will not save by profession; I
will look upon the professor as those that profess not; and upon the rich and great men,
yea nobles, kings and princes, as though they possessed nothing; for in their hidden
treasures are deceit and fraud by speculation and all manner of wickedness which I do
abhor, saith the God of Heaven, and for this cause and many more I have sent forth my
destroying Angels to pull down their lofty towers; yea, to lay low, even to the ground,
their high places.
11. My ter're vac' le o' ne trumpet
shall sound through the land, and many will flock to my Zion on earth for refuge, over
whom I will stretch out my protecting hand, and shield them from harm. But to those that
put far away these solemn warnings, and say; No danger awaits us; on such I will pour out
my wrath and indignation; I will smite them with my rod of justice, which I hold in my
right hand to accomplish this mighty work of the latter day.
12. Therefore, hearken again to my
voice, and repent of your doings, saith the Holy One of Israel; for I am determined on a
decision with the inhabitants of earth. Hence, I entreat you in mercy; and will ye not
hear? Will ye not come forth to the resurrection of life, and escape the awful judgments
that await the sinner?
13. I say unto you, Every knee shall
bow, and every tongue shall confess that I am the Lord. I will, in my own appointed time,
cause my prophecies to be fulfilled, that the inhabitants of earth may know and feel sore
tribulation for the abomination with which the earth is filled.
14. Never was there so great a day
of my visitation to fallen man; and never, according to the truth manifested, was the
earth so laden with sin and wickedness as at the present time. How long shall I suffer the
earth with her heavy burden to cry unto Me? Shall I wait on the sinner that repenteth not?
I tell you, nay;
15. I have appointed my time, and my
work I will do; I will smite the sinner that oppresseth, and confound and bring to nought
the lofty imaginations of men; they shall wander in desolate places, and say to the rocks
and mountains, Fall on us, and hide us from Him that sitteth upon the throne. For great
and terrible, saith the holy Angel, will be the day of the Lord which is declared unto
you.
16. Therefore, I solemnly warn you,
not to treat the things of God as abusing them. For know ye, there is but one true God,
the great Eternal Giver of all good; just and righteous, who will reward every one
according as his works shall be.
17. Therefore saith the Lord,
Hearken again O my people, to my word; prepare ye to sound the ter' re vac' le o' ne
trumpet; for I have not spoken in vain, neither will I pass lightly over those who know my
will and do it not; but those who do my pleasure, I will gather together from the four
quarters of the earth, into my ark of safety.
18. Therefore, I say unto the
children of Zion, Gird on your helmet, sword and shield, and be ye strong in the Lord; for
lo, the time cometh when many will flock to Zion, some for good and some for evil. But I
say unto you, stand ye firm and unshaken, and I will be your God and ye shall be my
people, forever more: Amen.

2. Know ye, that I am Wisdom,
eternal and unchangeable Wisdom; one with God I am, ever was and always shall be; even as
He is your Eternal Father, so do I Eternal Wisdom, stand as your everlasting Mother. With
Him I sound forth mercy, with Him judgment proclaim; We stand as one, and work as but one
alone; nothing doth He send forth upon the earth, either in mercy or judgment, without my
everlasting seal, ETERNAL WISDOM; and nothing
do I sound, or cause to be sounded forth, without his everlasting sign and approval.
3. Therefore marvel not that my
words are sounded unto you, O ye of little faith and weak understanding; for even as He
has condescended to stoop from his throne in Heaven, to notice his creature man now
dwelling upon the earth, his footstool; even so do I accompany Him, to bless the word of
his mouth, and bear witness to the truth contained in the Holy Roll, sent forth by his
Almighty power, mercy and justice; and many times have I placed my seal thereon, and
pronounced it wholesome and good, to stand unaltered and unchanged, till He in his
infinite goodness, sees fit to send forth a further decree.
4. So beware, all who are called to
read or to handle this word, in any way, shape or manner; for I have said and again say,
that whosoever will, knowingly, alter, add or diminish one word contained in the Holy
Roll, shall feel the judgments of God, and the heavy displeasure of Me, Eternal wisdom;
and whosoever will destroy, or cause to be destroyed, this holy Book, or any part therein
contained, O car' bo hes' per larth vile, and de veen' through tem' po ha' vo a' zen; I
say,
5. Though you burn this Book, the
truth thereof shall burst forth in your souls, as an unquenchable fire and a tormenting
flame; and if you bury it in the earth, the power of God shall cause it to breathe forth
the curses and the heavy judgments which are written therein; yea the earth itself shall
breathe forth plagues, pestilence and sore diseases, upon those whose hands or voices were
raised, or whose hearts rejoiced, to have this the holy word of the Lord buried in the
earth, to be trampled upon; and thus cause it to be a curse instead of a blessing unto
you.
6. Therefore be wise, all ye
inhabitants of the earth; and consider, ye cannot hide from the All-seeing eye of your
God.
7. But why should man seek to
destroy the word of Heaven, sent unto him from his God, given for his eternal good and
happiness? It is because it strikes at the root of all evil, which is the lust of the
flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life; yea, because he is required to live
strictly according to the law of grace, or strictly to the law of nature.
8. It is, saith Wisdom, for these
reasons that he will seek to destroy this holy word; but know ye, all who hear my word,
that ye cannot now, nor ever will be blessed, in any other way. Walk strictly according to
the principles of one or the other, or you will merit the displeasure of your God.
9. Let those extensive buildings in
which you have spent so many precious hours of your life in the filthy and obscene works
of darkness, now be changed into houses of solemn prayer, or of honest employment; no more
to be set apart for such foul and base purposes. There let holy songs of thanksgiving and
praise, be sung unto the Lord for his long forbearance; there let solemn and sacred fear
fill every soul;
10. There let the cries of the
penitent, the humble, true seeker after righteousness, and the broken hearted, ascend to
the throne of God, from the deepest recesses of your hearts; yea, bathe your floors with
tears of true repentance and thankfulness, that He has seen fit to notice you in mercy,
and warn you of his heavy judgments, which He will pour upon you, unless you quickly
repent.
11. O may sweet repentance soften
each heart, that the words of Heaven may sink deeply therein; which will cause you to be
bowed down with fear and reverence, and filled with deep tribulation, that you may be
prepared to meet your God in his mercy, and share in his forgiving love; for He will have
mercy on the faithful, and compassion for the contrite spirit; those who regard Him, He
will regard; but those who scorn his words, and disregard his sayings, He will scourge
with his judgments, and meet them in his fury; yea, He will disregard them in their
calamity, and withhold his protection when their fear cometh.
12. So beware how ye walk, and how
ye use the givings of your God; for know ye, it is an awful thing to fall into the hands
of the Almighty, to feel his judgments and heavy displeasure. Carefully use the words of
Heaven at all times, wherever they may be revealed; through whatever means they may come,
it matters not; if it pleaseth your God, you have no reason to complain.
13. But when you hear or see them,
or even have them in your presence, the eye of the Lord is continually upon you, to behold
the manner in which you regard them. Therefore be ye cautious how you use the things of
God, and how you speak of the same.
14. And I do forbid, that any should
take expressions or sentiments written in the Holy Roll, and use as common bywords, either
in a light carnal way, or in any other, save with sacred reverence; for they are solemn
indeed, and should not be used or blended with your own carnal words and ways, to express
your ideas or feelings in any manner; but preserve them in their order, by themselves,
solemn, sacred and divine; yea, preserve them as you would the most valuable treasure of
silver or gold, for they are of much more importance.
15. And those of you who stand as
rulers, often warn the people to use them carefully, and abuse not the books themselves,
nor the solemn words therein contained; and set ye the same example before them, in all
you say and do. So shall you be blessed, and your people likewise. In obedience to the
words of Heaven, you shall be prospered, and in no other way.
16. Therefore be wise for your own
souls' sake, and for your own prosperity and happiness, take heed how you walk; seek your
God in true humility, and you will find He hath mercy; labor for wisdom, that you may act
wisely.
17. My delight is in the upright
souls; I dwell with the honest heart, and with the true seeker and doer of the Lord's
will. I am not found in the high lofty regions, where dwell pride, arrogance and deceit,
where each one strives to be the highest, where all strive to rule, and none to obey;
18. There I dwell not, saith Holy
Wisdom; but in the lowly vale of humility and sweet repentance do I abide; there I shower
my blessings, and cause every thing to grow in wisdom, and perfect order; there I have
planted my vineyards, and there I have prepared holy fountains of everlasting waters
wherewith to feed my flock. I have there planted beautiful groves, and the blessing of God
has caused them to flourish exceedingly.
19. Come hither all who will, and
walk in my pleasant valley; purify your souls from sin and I will delight in your
offerings; wash in the pool of repentance, and you will be lovely; enter at the gate of
final decision, bid adieu to the world without, take up your cross, no more to put it by,
and you shall be mine forever.
20. My paths are pleasant, and all
who will, may walk therein; but nothing that is sinful or unclean, hath any place in my
valley, saith Wisdom; but straight as straightness, holy and divine are all things which
are under my full blessing.
21. You must bear the cross, if you
would wear the crown; you must lay down your carnal lives if you would share in life
everlasting; you must regard the holy words of your God, and live according to his
requirements, if you would enjoy peace on earth, and eternal happiness forever.
22. Worship your God to his
acceptance, if you would that He receive your offerings; worship Him in spirit, with life
and zeal, in truth and in reality, regardless of certain forms and ceremonies; and it will
be accepted of Him; He will be merciful towards you, in well doing, in loving and obeying
his word. But bow down, and give your ears to hear, and incline your hearts to understand
and obey his holy word.
23. Thus my word is finished unto
you at this time, say I, Holy and Eternal Wisdom.

1. Thus saith the Lord God of hosts;
If any man shall carelessly or purposely add, alter, or diminish this sacred and permanent
word of mine, by writing, printing, translating or reading it in any degree, shape or
manner whatever, I will reward him in judgment seven fold; and he shall feel my anger,
both day and night, for times and seasons, yea, until the sin shall be washed away by the
waters of true repentance, and consumed by the fire of my justice.
2. Cursed shall be the body and soul
that shall alter my Word, or cause it to be destroyed; yea, the tongue that shall
blaspheme it also; and every one who may dare to lift up their voice, or put forth a hand
to aid in burning my word, shall not escape the awful plagues which shall be poured out on
the earth; for with a curse, I, the God of justice, will smite them, from the crown of
their heads to the soles of their feet; and in inexpressible anguish shall they lament
with bitterness their sin.
3. But to those who shall seek to
keep my word holy and safe from all harm, believe, repent and obey in sacred fear; bend
their knees in prayer, bow their souls and bodies low even to the dust, and raise their
feeble voices to my throne, in tears of repentance and entreaty, I will hearken in love,
and like a kind Father draw near and befriend them.
4. I will lead them to the true
light of salvation; make them my holy and well beloved servants, and they shall dwell in
my kingdom forever, saith the Holy and Just One; for I am the Beginning and Ending, and
this is my unchangeable Seal which shall forever stand.
Amen, even so let it be.

Associated with this Sacred Roll. [ Excerpt 10 of 10 ]
1. Give ear unto my voice, all ye
nations of the earth, and listen with attention all ye dwellers in Zion's habitations.
2. By the command of my God have I
been required closely to examine all that enters between the lids of this sacred book,
whether brought forward as testimonies from those who at times had clearly seen it by the
immediate inspiration of God, for many months previous to the writing of this Roll and
Book, in different societies, and in various places, held in my hands or borne upon the
wings of other holy Angels; or whether it be merely as witnesses to the truth of that word
herein contained.
3. My God did require that there
should be many signers to his word, not for the sake of substantiating its truth; for it
hath proceeded and come forth from no other source, than the source of eternal truth
itself; but that all the inhabitants of the earth may know that God has a seed remaining
upon the earth, a little chosen few, a poor afflicted and despised people, yet numbered in
the Zion of his likeness; who are ready and thankful for a privilege to do his will and
pleasure, should it cost them all the enjoyments of life, and even the sacrifice of life
itself.
4. My God doth not require, saith
the mighty Angel, that all the inhabitants of Zion should sign this his first word to the
children of men, in this the last dispensation of his grace to them, by affixing their own
personal names; neither does He require that all whom He hath caused to be used as
inspired agents, in this his late manifestation, should sign their names, individually;
but a number sufficient to show the general union and approbation of the body of Zion at
large, are permitted to sign it.
5. And further than this, says the
Angel, is unnecessary, and not, at present, required by your God. But wait God's time for
further requirements. Remember that He hath declared to all nations, that He worketh in a
time of his own appointing, and willeth at his pleasure, the work for mortal man to be
engaged in.
6. Therefore, hear and understand,
all ye inhabitants of the earth, that but a few of those who have forsaken all for
Christ's sake, now in this his second coming, without sin unto salvation, have placed
their individual names in this Book;
7. Yet there are many, not herein
named at this time, who stand equally justified before their God, as those who have
affixed their names. And many there are, of various ages and classes, who have not signed
their names as inspired instruments or agents, although they have had equal evidence in
their own souls, with those who have signed, of the sublime and divine manifestations, for
several years past, of a pure and holy God, to the inhabitants of Zion.
8. I, the Holy and Mighty Angel of
God, do proclaim unto all people, both in and out of Zion, that God is able to make use of
such an agency as He chooses, to convey his word and his will to the people:
9. But remember, that souls may be
blessed with great gifts of discerning spirits, and of inspiration and revelation; yet
lose their own salvation at last. These gifts can save none, any further than they yield
true obedience to the revealed will of God, made known to them for their protection.
10. Again, I do testify unto all,
that the true children of my Heavenly Father's kingdom, take no delight in having their
names sounded abroad in the earth; they had much rather remain through life secluded, and
enter eternity, having been unknown by the world at large. But if by any means, the will
of God requireth their names to go abroad, they yield as rendering obedience, not as
pleasing themselves.
11. God's word is truth, and needeth
not the aid of mortals for its support; yet, for the sake of the unbeliever, He doth
require a short testimony from such as He hath shown the Roll and Book which He was about
to send forth to the inhabitants of earth, and that previous to the time of its being
written.
12. As the inspired writer of the
Roll and Book, was not suffered by his God, to know of these things until after the
requirement of writing this Sacred Word had been accomplished, saith the Holy Angel,
through whom this word has been revealed to man;
13. Therefore, read, and reflect in
solemn silence; for here are truths recorded, that will stand in time and in the endless
ages of eternity; not the "cunningly devised fables" of man or of woman; but
truths of that God, before whom all must shortly appear, in mercy or in judgment.
14. And all that is placed between
these sacred lids, I have closely examined, according to the direction of God, my Heavenly
Father. And the spirit and substance of all herein contained, I pronounce and declare to
all the inhabitants of earth, to be solemn and unalterable truths of God; and that which
will stand for the same, in the endless ages of eternity.
15. Though the mortal writers or
instruments of the word stand or fall from their present faith, and that sincerity of
heart, in which they have written these testimonies, it can alter nothing, as respects the
solemn truths they do contain.
16. They only alter their own
situation; and by denying the sacred truths which, by the spirit of God, have been sounded
through their mouths, they disinherit themselves from his Holy Kingdom; And their
testimonies shall stand before the eyes of all people, as a solemn and awful record
against them, both in time and in eternity, saith the Angel.
17. There never was, and never will
be a dispensation of the mercy and grace of God opened to mankind, that can save them from
their sins while walking in disobedience to its requirements.
18. But the greater the privilege
that God hath granted them, by favoring them with his divine and sacred influence, the
greater must be their horror and condemnation in turning therefrom, and walking again in
open disobedience to that true light and sacred power, which, by the mercy of God, had
once been suffered to rest upon their souls.
19. Therefore, hearken and
understand, all ye nations, kindreds, tongues and people; for I, the mighty, holy and
proclaiming Angel of God, do declare in your ears, and to your understanding, solemn
truths of God.
20. None of the agents nor
instruments that were ever used by the command of God, or in the hands of holy Angels, to
sound forth his word and will to the people, were ever finally saved thereby, short of
walking in strict obedience to that which was required of them, in the order that God had
appointed.
21. But whenever they turn their
feelings in disobedience to these requirements, and reject the same, they rapidly hasten
their own destruction, and separation from the holy spirit of God. Whether they be
instruments that have been used in the Zion of his likeness, or whether they be
instruments that are abroad in the world, it altereth not the path that all must pursue,
to find their own souls' salvation and protection from the power of evil, which is the
path of strict and true obedience to that revealed will and order of God that is
established for their souls' protection in the day and time in which they live.
22. By the fruits shall mankind
discern whether the work be of God, saith the holy and mighty Angel, whose word faileth
not. Therefore read and understand, by holy fear and sacred reverence, the word of that
God who giveth immortality, and eternal life to all who keep his commandments.
