Chapter 1 1-4 Those who were descended from Jacob were instructed in the things of the church, from the very beginning, but in vain. 2 5, 6 Therefore what happened to them was according to the Word. 2 7-10 The successive states of the church even to the end are represented, and the nature of their understanding of the Word is described. 2 11 It is found that there is no church. 2 12, 13 A new church which will be from the Lord. 11 14-16 The Lord will institute a new church when the former church has been completely perverted. 11, 3 17 He will institute it in place of the former. 11, 3 A new church from the Lord. 11 18-21 (H.B. 2:1-4) Falsities of evil which have destroyed everything of the church. 3
