Every good thing through Christ

God knowing all things, being
from everlasting to everlasting,
behold, he sent angels to minister
unto the children of men,
to make manifest concerning
the coming of Christ;
and in Christ there should come
every good thing.

And God also declared
unto prophets,
by his own mouth,
that Christ should come.

And behold,
there were divers ways
that he did manifest things
unto the children of men,
which were good; and
all things which are good
cometh of Christ;
otherwise men were fallen,
and there could no good thing
come unto them.

Wherefore,
by the ministering of angels,
and by every word
which proceeded forth
out of the mouth of God,
men began to
exercise faith in Christ;
and thus by faith, they did
lay hold upon every good thing;
and thus it was until
the coming of Christ.

And after that he came
men also were saved
by faith in his name;
and by faith,
they become the sons of God.

For he hath answered
the ends of the law,
and he claimeth all those
who have faith in him;
and they who have faith in him
will cleave unto every good thing;
wherefore he advocateth
the cause of the children of men;
and he dwelleth
eternally in the heavens.
