### Let us not say that our Father is with God, and will plead Jor us at the Day of Judgement, For I know that a Father cannot help.his Son, nor a Son a Father

[¶1] 1 And now, my children, do not say; Our father.

[¶2] 2. You see how I have written down all the works of every man before his creation, which 15

[¶3] 5 done in the case of all men for ever”.. And no man can say or unsay what I have written with my hand. For God sees all things, even the thoughts of wicked men, which lie in the storeplaces of the heart.. And now, lief early in the second century B.C. The next mention of this belief is to be met with in my children, pay attention to all the words of your father which I say to you’: that ye may not grieve afterwards and say: Our father for some cause or other, never told them to us, in the time of this folly.
