19 I was answered that I must join none of them, for they were all ^awrong; and the Personage who addressed me said that all their creeds were an abomination in his sight; that those ^bprofessors were all ^ccorrupt; that: “they ^ddraw near to me with their lips, but their ^ehearts are far from me, they teach for doctrines the ^fcommandments of men, having a form of godliness, but they deny the ^gpower thereof.”

  31 And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee as my people, and they ^ahear thy words, but they will not do them: for with their ^bmouth they shew much love, but their heart goeth after their ^ccovetousness.

  1 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the ^awaters of Judah, which ^bswear by the name of the Lord, and make ^cmention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.

  8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their ^amouth, and ^bhonoureth me with their lips; but their ^cheart is far from me.

  13 Bring no more ^avain ^boblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and ^csabbaths, the calling of ^dassemblies, I cannot ^eaway with; it is ^finiquity, even the ^gsolemn meeting.
