Barnabas
18:1
But let us pass on to
another lesson and teaching.
There are two ways of
teaching and of power,
the one of light and
the other of darkness; and there is a great difference between
the two ways.
For on the one are
stationed the light giving angels of God,
on the other the
angels of Satan.
Barnabas
18:2
And the one is the
Lord from all eternity and unto all eternity, whereas the other is Lord
of the season of
iniquity that now is.
Barnabas
19:1
This then is the way
of light, if anyone desiring to travel on the way to his appointed
place would be
zealous in his works.
The knowledge then
which is given to us whereby we may walk therein is as follows.
Barnabas
19:2
Thou shalt
love Him
that made thee,
Thou shalt fear Him that
created thee,
Thou shalt glorify Him that
redeemed thee from death;
Thou shalt be simple in heart
and rich in spirit;
Thou shalt
not
cleave to those who walk the way of death;
Thou shalt hate everything that
is not pleasing to God;
Thou shalt hate all hypocrisy;
Thou shalt never forsake the
commandments of the Lord.
Barnabas
19:3
Thou shalt
not
exalt thyself, but shalt be lowly minded in all things.
Thou shalt
not
assume glory to thyself.
Thou shalt
not
entertain a wicked design against thy neighbour;
Thou shalt
not
admit boldness into thy soul.
Barnabas
19:4
Thou shalt
not
commit fornication,
Thou shalt
not
commit adultery,
Thou shalt
not
corrupt boys.
The word of
God shall not
come forth from thee where any are unclean.
Thou shalt
not make
a difference in a person to reprove him for a transgression.
Thou shalt be meek,
Thou shalt be quiet,
Thou shalt be fearing the words
which thou hast heard.
Thou shalt
not bear
a grudge against thy brother.
Barnabas
19:5
Thou shalt
not
doubt whether a thing shall be or not be.
Thou shalt
not take
the name of the Lord in vain.
Thou shalt
love thy
neighbour more than thine own soul.
Thou shalt
not
murder a child by abortion, nor again shalt thou kill it when it is born.
Thou shalt
not
withhold thy hand from thy son or daughter,
but from their youth
thou shalt teach them the fear of God.
Barnabas
19:6
Thou shalt
not be
found coveting thy neighbours goods;
Thou shalt
not be
found greedy of gain.
Neither
shalt thou
cleave with thy soul to the lofty,
but shalt walk with
the humble and righteous.
The accidents that
befall thee thou shalt receive as good, knowing that nothing
is done without God.
Thou shalt
not be
double minded nor double tongued.
Barnabas
19:7
Thou shalt
be
subject unto thy masters as to a type of God in shame and fear.
Thou shalt
not
command in bitterness thy bondservant or thine handmaid
who set their hope on
the same God, lest haply, they should cease to fear the God
who is over both of
you; for He came not to call with respect of persons,
but to call those
whom the Spirit hath prepared.
Barnabas
19:8
Thou shalt make thy neighbor
partake in all things, and shalt not say that anything
is thine own.
For if ye are fellow
partakers in that which is imperishable,
how much rather shall
ye be in the things which are perishable.
Thou shalt
not be
hasty with thine own tongue, for the mouth is the snare of death.
So far as thou art
able,
Thou shalt be pure for thy
soul's sake.
Barnabas
19:9
Be not thou
found
holding out thy hands to receive, and drawing them in to give.
Thou shalt love as the apple of
thine eye every one that speaketh
unto thee the word of
the Lord.
Barnabas
19:10
Thou shalt remember the day of
judgment night and day, and
Thou shalt seek out day by day
the persons of the saints, either labouring
by word and going to
exhort them and meditating how thou mayest save
souls by thy word, or
Thou shalt work with thy hands
for a ransom for thy sins.
Barnabas
19:11
Thou shall
not
hesitate to give,
neither
shalt thou
murmur when giving, but
thou shalt
know who
is the good paymaster of thy reward.
Thou shalt keep those things
which thou hast received,
neither adding to
them nor taking away from them.
Thou shalt utterly hate the
Evil One.
Thou shalt judge righteously.
Barnabas
19:12
Thou shalt
not make
a schism, but
Thou shalt pacify them that
contend by bringing them together.
Thou shalt confess thy sins.
Thou shalt
not
betake thyself to prayer with an evil conscience.
This is the way of
light.
Barnabas
20:1
But the way of the
Black One (Evil One) is crooked and full of a curse.
For it is a way of
eternal death with punishment wherein are the things that destroy
men's souls - idolatry,
boldness, exhalation of power, hypocrisy, doubleness of heart,
adultery, murder,
plundering, pride, transgression, treachery, malice, stubbornness,
witchcraft, magic,
covetousness,
absence of the fear
of God;
Barnabas
20:2
persecutors of good
men, hating the truth, loving lies, not perceiving the reward
of righteousness, not
cleaving to the good nor to the righteous judgment,
paying no heed to the
widow and the orphan,
wakeful not for the
fear of God but for that which is evil;
men from whom
gentleness and forbearance stand aloof and far off;
loving vain things,
pursuing a recompense, not pitying the poor man, not toiling
for him that is
oppressed with toil, ready to slander,
not recognizing Him
that made them murderers of children,
corrupters of the
creatures of God, turning away from him that is in want, oppressing him
that is afflicted,
advocates of the wealthy, unjust judges of the poor, sinful in all things.
Barnabas
21:1
It is good therefore
to learn the ordinances of the Lord, as many as have been
written above, and to
walk in them. For he that doeth these things shall be glorified
in the kingdom of
God; whereas he that chooseth their opposites shall perish together
with his works. For
this cause is the resurrection,
for this the
recompense.
