Chapter 23
You Reap What You Sow
a
Let your words be naturally short
Strong wind does not last all morning
Sudden rain does not last all day
b
What causes this? Heaven and Earth!
If Heaven and Earth do not cause violent things to last,
How much less should you?
c
Those who follow God are with God
Those who follow the Spirit are with the Spirit
Those who follow transgression are with transgression
When you follow God, God is One with you
When you follow the Spirit, the Spirit is One with you
When you follow transgression, transgression is One with you
For whatever your faith lacks, faith cannot provide
