As Man Now Is, God Once Was;

The Severest Prosecutions Have Never Been Followed By Revelations Changing A Divine Law, Obedience To Which Brought Imprisonment Or Martyrdom. Though I Go To Prison, God Will Not Change His Law Of Celestial Marriage.

There Are Some Who Do Not Learn, And Who Do Not Improve As Fast As They Might, Because Their Eyes And Their Hearts Are Not Upon God; They Do Not Reflect Neither Do They Have That Knowledge Which They Might Have; They Miss A Good Deal Which They Might Receive. We Have Got To Obtain Knowledge Before We Obtain Permanent Happiness; We Have Got To Be Wide Awake In The Things Of God.

A Man's Mind Should Be Single To The Glory Of God In Everything That He Starts To Accomplish. We Should Consider That Of Ourselves We Can Do Nothing. We Are The Children Of God. We Are In Darkness, Only As God Enlightens Our Understanding. We Are Powerless, Only As God Helps Us. The Work That We Have To Do Here Is Of That Nature That We Cannot Do It Unless We Have The Assistance Of The Almighty.

As Man Now Is, God Once Was; As God Is Now Man May Be.

We Ought To Feel In Our Hearts That God Is Our Father, And That While We Make Mistakes And Are Weak Yet If We Live As Nearly Perfect As We Can All Will Be Well With Us.
