We, the dissenters and worshipers of God, have fallen from the Lords grasp. We have fallen from his land and are due to suffer in hell. We have begun to follow ourselves by slaving for money, by purchasing land, by working for the present world. Instead we should be working with each other to follow God, to do his biddings, to please him. Not to mention how unfair and unkind we are to each other, we determine each other’s fate in court instead of letting God persecute those who have wronged him. We have given men God’s power when he does not deserve it. Since we have not been working for our saviour, God, and have not been following his rules we all will suffer in hell, the world will burn in his wrath, and we shall cease to exist in his loving embrace.
