The Journeys of Gubir and Jaresh

Chapter 2

1And Karatang did ask them, What must I do be saved from my sins. And Gubir and Jaresh did speak unto him and they did say, There is nothing that a man can do to save himself. For surely the works of man are nothing to the works of God. But only those who may be saved are those who believe in Him. And those who believe in Him shall obey His commandments. And a man must die and come alive again in the Lord. And Karatang spoke unto them, how can a man die and take up again his life, for no man in all the world has done this. And they knew that the understanding of Karatang was imperfect, but he had a desire to know the truth of God. And they said unto him, the death that must come upon a man is not a death of the body but is a death of the evil within a man. For surely a man must put off his evil and take upon himself a righteous life. And it is in this way that a man can die and come alive again. But behold a man must die in the water and come up again out of the water alive again. For the waters doth symbolize the living water that is the Lord. And behold Karatang did know that the things which they taught were true. And He desired to follow the Lord and to die and live again through baptism. And yea even all his family desired it. And Gubir and Jaresh took Karatang and his family to a body of water, even the river of Lar. And they did baptize him and his family in the name of God the Father, and His Son, and the Holy Spirit. And this Karatang did become a righteous man and even all his family did become righteous. And Gubir and Jaresh went forth among the people of this place and did teach them of God and the Law. And even Karatang did aid in teaching and did gather people together to hear their words. And it came to pass that they did bring all those people unto the Lord and did baptize them.
