Chapter 14

← Chapter 13
1

First, freedom to all people on earth, and to the angels of heaven, to think and to speak whatever they will.

2

Second, that since no man can acquire knowledge for another, but that each and all must acquire knowledge for themselves, you shall dispose of whatever is before you in your own way.

3

Remembering that one man sees Jehovih in the leaves and flowers; in the mountains and skies; in the sun and stars; or hears Him in the wind and all corporeal sounds; yes, he knows his Creator in the presence of everything under the sun. And he is happy.

4

Another does not see Jehovih, nor does he know Him. No, he denies there is any All Person in the universe. He is not happy.

5

One man distinguishes the harmony of sounds, and he is delighted.

6

Another man cannot distinguish the harmony, and he finds no delight in them.

7

So, of the words of your God, one man can distinguish, and another cannot.

8

The revelations of your God portray the harmony and glory of Jehovih’s creations including the organic heavens of His holy angels.

9

Whether you yourself, or your brother, or your neighbor, shall profess to reveal the words of your God—it is well.

10

Strive in this, and you shall improve yourself in the attempt.

11

The recognition of my authority rests in the preservation of my words for thousands of years.

12

I call all people to me and my kingdom; I proclaim that right-doing and good works result in happiness; whoever does these are one with me in the framing of words.

13

To be one with Jehovih, this is Godliness; to be one with your God, the way is open to all men.

14

To be organic for love and good works—this is like the fraternities in heaven.

15

Whoever strives for this has my authority already; in time, his words shall become one with me and my works.

16

To improve yourself in these holy things is to discipline yourself to become a glory to your Creator.

17

Let any who will, say: Thus says God, or thus says Jehovih, or thus say I. Truth expounded shall never die; the discrepancy from truth is short- lived.

18

Improve yourself, O man: Be sincere in yourself and in all you do, and, when you have attained this, your words shall be with power.

19

Remember your Creator and seek to discover Him in the best perfections; remembering that darkness does not know Him, but Light proclaims Him forever.

20

For on the foundation of an All Person, and believing in Him, lie the beginning and the way of everlasting resurrection. Without Him, none have risen.

21

These are the words and discipline; your God shapes the thoughts of millions in this direction. The two (words and discipline) are the authority vested in me, your elder brother, by Jehovih, Creator, Ruler and Dispenser, worlds without end. Amen! END OF BOOK OF DISCIPLINE Book of Inspiration
