戰鬥爭競、何自而來、非欲戰於中而生乎、

愛友乎、爾若客旅、若寄居、我勸爾戒形軀之慾、即攻爾心者也、

然覺肢體中別有一律、與我心志之律戰、擄我服於肢體中之罪律、

蓋形軀之慾禦乎神、神禦形軀、二者相敵、俾爾不行其所欲行、

凡為己慾所誘惑者、乃見試也、

爾求而不得、以爾妄求、欲用之於爾慾也、

人心詭詐、逾於萬物、其疾甚重、誰能洞識、

蓋自內即自人心出諸惡念、如苟合、盜竊、兇殺、淫亂、貪婪、惡毒、詭騙、邪侈、妒嫉、訕謗、驕傲、狂悖、凡斯惡行皆自內出而污人也、○

蓋我儕素亦無知、悖逆、迷惑、役於情慾佚樂、以狠毒媢嫉度生、見惡於人、亦彼此相惡、

俾不再循人慾、惟循上帝之旨、以度餘年、爾往時從異邦人之欲、而行邪侈、縱恣、沉湎、荒宴、盤樂、及違理拜像之事亦足矣、

惟遠愚詰、譜系、爭辯、及由律之競端、以其無益而虛妄也、

而不眷顧該隱、與其祭品、該隱盛怒變色、耶和華曰、爾怒奚為、變色曷故、苟爾行善、豈不懽顏、苟行不善、孽伏於門、彼必戀爾、爾其制之、該隱以告弟亞伯、在於田間、攻而殺之、○

勿愛斯世與在世之物、人若愛世、則父之愛不在其衷、蓋凡在世者、如形軀之慾、眼目之慾、並此生之驕矜、皆非由父、乃由世也、且世漸逝、其慾亦然、惟行上帝旨者永存、○

蓋其言矜誇虛誕、由形軀之慾、以淫邪誘惑甫脫妄行者、

故當滅爾在地之肢體、即淫亂、污穢、邪情、惡慾、及貪婪、貪婪與拜像一也、

如順命之子、不狥昔時無知之慾、

蓋惡念、兇殺、淫亂、苟合、盜竊、妄證、訕謗、

斯人依慾而行、訾議怨尤、口出誇張、為利判人、○愛友乎、當憶我主耶穌基督使徒之預言、語爾曰、末時將有戲謔之徒、依己不虔之慾而行、

若心懷嫉很朋黨、則勿誇勿誑、以敵真理、此智非自上而來、乃屬地與慾與魔也、蓋媢嫉朋黨所在、必有紛亂與諸惡行、惟自上之智、則首貞潔、次和平、溫良、柔順、充以矜恤與善果、無貳無偽、仁義之果、乃以和致和者之所播也、

蓋我儕徇形軀時、其由律之惡慾動於肢體、厥果維死、

蓋形軀之志、敵乎上帝、以其不服上帝律、且不能服也、

首焉者、宜知季世將有戲謔者出而戲謔、從己慾而行、

乃自衒無知、惟務言詞之爭辯、致生媢嫉、爭競、訕謗、妄疑、及壞心志喪真理者之紛爭、彼以敬虔為利途也、然敬虔而知足、其利大矣、蓋我儕入世、無所攜來、逝世亦無所攜去、惟有衣食即當知足、圖富有者、乃陷於誘惑機檻、及無知有害之諸慾、溺人於滅亡者也、蓋好利為萬惡之根、有慕之者、迷失乎信、以多苦自刺、○

爾由爾父、即魔也、爾父之慾、爾欲行之、彼自始為殺人者、不立於真理、以其衷無真理也、其言誑、乃由己而言、蓋彼為誑者、且為誑者之父、
