I truly hope that all the families involved can get their lives back on track.
Joseph Smith
If thou art called to pass through tribulations if thou art in perils among false brethren if thou art in perils among robbers if thou art in perils by land or by sea if thou art accused with all manner of false accusations if thine enemies fall upon thee if they tear thee from the society of thy father and mother and brethren and sisters and if with a drawn sword thine enemies tear thee from the bosom of thy wife, and of thine offspring, and thine elder son, although but six years of age, shall cling to thy garments, and shall say, My father, my father, why can't you stay with us O, my father, what are the men going to do with you and if then he shall be thrust from thee by the sword, and thou be dragged to prison, and thine enemies prowl around thee like wolves for the blood of the lamb and if thou shouldest be cast into the pit, or into the hands of murderers, and the sentence of death passed upon thee if thou be cast into the deep, if the billowing surge conspire against thee if fierce winds become thine enemy if the heavens gather blackness, and all the elements combine to hedge up the way and above all, if the very jaws of hell shall gape open the mouth wide after thee, know thou, my son, that all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good. The Son of Man (Jesus Christ) hath descended below them all art thou greater than he.
Joseph Smith
I saw a pillar of light exactly over my head... When I came to myself again, I found myself lying on my back, looking up into heaven.
Joseph Smith
That they (the powers of heaven) may be conferred upon us, it is true but when we undertake to cover our sins, or to gratify our pride, our vain ambition, or to exercise control or dominion or compulsion upon the souls of the children of men, in any degree of unrighteousness, behold, the heavens withdraw themselves the Spirit of the Lord is grieved.
Joseph Smith
The Standard of Truth has been erected. No unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing. Persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, armies may assemble, calumny may defame. But the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and dependent till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, until the purposes of God shall be accomplished and the Great Jehovah will say, The work is done.'
Joseph Smith
