Differences of progress among the faithful§1

1Scripture in many places shows differences of progress and merit among the faithful.

Latin · §1

Differentias esse profectus et meritorum in populo fidelium multis locis divinae scripturae ostendunt.

All come to the fire§2

2We must all come to that fire — even a Paul or Peter. Such hear: it will not harm you.

Latin · §2

Omnes nos venire necesse est ad illum ignem; etiamsi Paulus sit vel Petrus. Tales audiunt: non nocebit tibi.

Those who approach Moses§3

3 All the leaders approached Moses. Orders in the church and approach to the word. Glory forever. Amen.

Latin · §3

Accesserunt ad Moysen omnes qui erant principes. Ordines in ecclesia et accessus ad verbum. Gloria in saecula. Amen.
