He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and -the isles shall wait for his law.
Page 77 - Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
