Phục truyền luật lệ ký 24:8

Verse 8. Take heed and beware of the danger of profanation or of sinning against knowledge, and watch diligently against it, and do everything that good from the Lord and the truths that minister thereto shall teach you; as directed by perception or conscience through the Word to the soul, to avoid it. [Note.—The directions about cleansing from leprosy are given in Leviticus 8:0, 14:0, and refer in general to discriminations between profanation from ignorance, and profanation after faith and acknowledgement; and to the cleansing of the soul that is necessary to remove it; that it must be apparently from one's selfhood, though in reality from the Lord; that it must be full and complete, till horror is excited by evil, and till evils are driven without the soul by serious repentance, and till genuine truths are implanted. To simulate a good life in externals, and to will evil internally, is profanation. (See Apocalypse Explained 1045-1064.)
