A Man Is Saved No Faster Than

I Am Tired Of The Misrepresentation, Calumny And Detraction, Heaped Upon Me By Wicked Men; And Desire And Claim, Only Those Principles Guaranteed To All Men By The Constitution And Laws Of The United States And Of Illinois.

All Your Losses Will Be Made Up To You In The Resurrection, Provided You Continue Faithful. By The Vision Of The Almighty I Have Seen It.

We Are Looked Upon By God As Though We Were In Eternity; God Dwells In Eternity, And Does Not View Things As We Do.

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.

Seek To Know God In Your Closets, Call Upon Him In The Fields. Follow The Directions Of The Book Of Mormon, And Pray Over, And For Your Families, Your Cattle, Your Flocks, Your Herds, Your Corn, And All Things That You Possess [see Alma 34:18-27]; Ask The Blessing Of God Upon All Your Labors, And Everything That You Engage In.
