COMMANDS TO THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL

1. Keep the men at work inside of the church every working day, besides your night work, until the inside is finished.

2. Finish this church in 1894, even if you have to give up some of your gods such as mosaic floor in the auditorium or other decorations. You can hold services in the vestry this year.

3. Retain your present architect by destroying the influence of hypnotism and then his sense of what can be done will be enlarged. Remember he has not been taught as you have been.
