How Precious Are The Souls Of Men!

Hence We Say, That The Constitution Of The United States Is A Glorious Standard; It Is Founded In The Wisdom Of God. It Is A Heavenly Banner; It Is To All Those Who Are Privileged With The Sweets Of Liberty, Like The Cooling Shades And Refreshing Waters Of A Great Rock In A Thirsty And Weary Land. It Is Like A Great Tree Under Whose Branches Men From Every Clime Can Be Shielded From The Burning Rays Of The Sun.

That Which Is Wrong Under One Circumstance, May Be, And Often Is, Right Under Another. God Said, 'thou Shalt Not Kill'; At Another Time He Said, 'thou Shalt Utterly Destroy.' This Is The Principle On Which The Government Of Heaven Is Conducted—by Revelation Adapted To The Circumstances In Which The Children Of The Kingdom Are Placed. Whatever God Requires Is Right, No Matter What It Is, Although We May Not See The Reason Thereof Till Long After The Events Transpire.

Take Away The Book Of Mormon And The Revelations, And Where Is Our Religion? We Have None.

Every Man Should Esteem His Neighbor As Himself.

The Things Of God Are Of Great Import; And Time, And Experience,and Careful, And Ponderous, And Solemn Thoughts Can Only Find Them Out. Thy Mind, Oh Man, If Thou Wilt Lead A Man Unto Salvation, Must Stretch As High As The Utmost Heavens, And Search Into And Contemplate The Darkest Abyss, And The Broad Expanses Of Eternity; Thou Must Commune With God!
