1And after he had finished the explanations of all the sticks he said to me: “Go and tell all men to repent and live to God, for the Lord sent me in his mercy to give repentance to all, although some are not worthy because of their deeds. But the Lord, being long-suffering, wishes those who were called through his Son to be saved.” 2I said to him: “Sir, I hope that all who hear them will repent. For I am persuaded that each one who recognizes his own deeds and fears God will repent.” 3And he answered me and said: “As many,” said he, “as repent with all their hearts, and purify themselves from the wickednesses which have been mentioned before, and no longer add anything to their sins, shall receive healing from the their former sins, if they are not double-minded as to these commandments, and they shall live to God. But as many,” said he, “as add to their sins, and live in the lusts of this world shall condemn themselves to death. 4But do you walk in my commandments and you shall live to God, and as many as walk in them and do rightly, shall live to God.” 5When he had showed me these things and had told me everything, he said to me: “And the rest I will show you after a few days.”
