I have very plainly showed to you the work of the prince, and have told you of his power.
Gold and silver money, the fruits of all evil, are the valuable things in his kingdom; that is what he puts up such a terrible fight against the God-heads with; that is what he betrayed Christ with; that is what he is buying the ministers and kings, presidents and judges with, and the supposed to be christian churches with, but some of them are a devil’s hell, and the world would be better off without them and their leaders. That is what buys a human life. The lust for money causes our ministers and leaders and the great trust companies to feather their own nest by taking the last penny from a poor starving family without mercy. The prince knows that you want it and would do any crime to get it, so you rob the poor, you are branded in God’s sight as a thief, and that is against the Golden Rule.
What does the race need? We want leaders, men who are manly enough not to throw themselves on a weak race and make them take care of them and their families who are not able to take care of themselves.
The greatest progress of the world has been built upon the poor and unfortunate race. They have been drove, and whipped, and sold, and robbed of their rights before a just God by man. The negro leaders have taken up the plan of the white man. I will add with a few exceptions, the height of their manhood and education is to fool the weaker of their race, and make them take them for their leaders whether they want to or not; they are not willing to sacrifice one hour for the race unless they can get paid for it, they study the Gospel of Jesus Christ and sell it for a large sum of money, when the gospel is free for all. Their ambition is to build a fine church and tax a poor race to pay for it.

What should they do? They should teach the congregation to save their pennies for a rainy day, for they have nothing to give; any man that has not saved from two or five hundred dollars has nothing to give to a world’s church. Where can we meet in order to worship our God and praise to Him? He tells us wheresoever two or three of His children meet there shall be a God in their midst and some soul shall be blessed.
We first should run the prince out of our homes and dedicate them to God, and make a church there; when that gets too small, He will find a larger place for us.
The strong race that has robbed us, according to the Bible, knows of their crime, and knows that no thief can enter Heaven.
If we prove ourselves worthy of taking care of what God has intended for all men, their rights, the white race is willing to give it to us.
