20a Therefore, take with you those who are ordained unto the lesser priesthood, and send them before you to make appointments, and to prepare the way, and to fill appointments that you yourselves are not able to fill.
20b Behold, this is the way that mine apostles, in ancient days, built up my church unto me.
21a Therefore, let every man stand in his own office, and labor in his own calling; and let not the head say unto the feet it hath no need of the feet, for without the feet how shall the body be able to stand?
21b Also, the body hath need of every member, that all may be edified together, that the system may be kept perfect.
22 And, behold, the high priests should travel, and also the elders, and also the lesser priests; but the deacons and teachers should be appointed to watch over the church, to be standing ministers unto the church.
23a And the bishop, Newel K. Whitney, also, should travel round about and among all the churches, searching after the poor, to administer to their wants by humbling the rich and the proud;
23b he should also employ an agent to take charge and to do his secular business, as he shall direct;
23c nevertheless, let the bishop go unto the city of New York, and also to the city of Albany, and also to the city of Boston, and warn the people of those cities with the sound of the gospel, with a loud voice, of the desolation and utter abolishment which awaits them if they do reject these things;
23d for if they do reject these things, the hour of their judgment is nigh, and their house shall be left unto them desolate.
23e Let him trust in me, and he shall not be confounded, and an hair of his head shall not fall to the ground unnoticed.
24a And verily I say unto you, the rest of my servants, Go ye forth as your circumstances shall permit, in your several callings, unto the great and notable cities and villages, reproving the world in righteousness, of all their unrighteous and ungodly deeds, setting forth clearly and understandingly the desolation of abomination in the last days;
