Now to all you who are convinced and have your understandings enlightened. Beware ye enter not in the temptation to lust after the creature and give not way to the lazy dreaming mind for it enters into the temptations. So there thou wilt be polluted with the pollutions of the world; then thou wilt be tempted to despair and the devil there gets power upon thee.
(Works, VII., p. 56.)
The End of Sin.
This spirit baptiseth into the one body and this spirit is the unity of the saints though they be absent in body, yet present in spirit all being made to drink into one spirit. And this spirit circumciseth and puts off the body of sin.
(C. J., I., p. 95.)
IX.
Slavery.
Enslaved Races.
I am moved to write these things to you in all the plantations. God that made the world and all things therein and giveth life and breath to all is the God of spirits of all flesh and is no respecter of persons. He hath made all nations of one blood. And he doth enlighten every man that cometh into the world. And the gospel is preached to every creature under heaven, which is the power that giveth liberty and freedom and is glad tidings to every captivated creature under the whole heavens.
(Works, VII., p. 144, condensed.)
