The Testament of Our Lord
II. 26
And thou ” especially John, and Andrew and Peter, even now ye know all [the things] which I have spoken to you while I am with you, as also that which [is] in this Testament, in order that when ye deliver [them] to the nations the will of My Father may alway be accomplished, abiding’ firm in carefulness, so that there may be good fruits in them that hear.
Ye know that I have spoken with you that a good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit.2 All [things], then, that I have commanded you openly and secretly, do. And the God of tranquillity be with you.’
