desires and Interests would be Judged
accordingly and would not be prepared
for n more advanced condition OF the
future and would be debafred the en-
joymont Of its blessings. This pco-
pie arc In training for the glorious
work OF the redemption OF Zion. III
the hearts OF the people were riEhttheir
acts would correspond with that mental
condition. rhe time would come when
the pure In heart would 10 back TO
the land Designated as the future cen-
trail location OF Zion. Blessed are they
who are preparing TO be numbered
among those who shall enjoy that great
privilege. Those who did not pay their
tithcs would not reach position when
they would be- prepared 10 lay all they
possessed on the altar. Without COM
plying with the word ~ the Lord az u
II given. no person could go forward,
line upon line. step by step. toward
a complete salvation. Tho actions ~
men were the product of their thoughts.
How necessary. therefore. that our
thoughts should be the pfOmptinsa OF
tho spirit Of revelation.
The speaker here read from a revela-
tinn given through the Prophet Joseph
on September % md 90 1852. The
pansase cmhodics mn Injunction TO the
people 10 live by every word that
proceeds from the mouth Of God for
that word II given by the Spirit OF God.
II also procinima TINT 'Ne covenant OF
the pricathood had been revealed to
the Saints not only for their rnkca
WIN had received n. but also for the
snke ~ the whole world. u likewise
dates that those who are not acuualnt-
cd with the voice 81 the Lord are uns
der the bondage ~ sin. and In this way
the wicked and the righteous could be
distinguished from cnrh other. The
speaker testified that the church wis
growing. lie prayed for the triumph
Of the Kingdom of God.
PRESIDENT LORENZO SNOW
was the closing speaker lie expressed
his pleasure with the blessings mani
tested during the Conference. II had
occurred 10 him that two very strong
temptations troubled Va from ''.re to
time. and tended 20 draw our hearts
from the idea ~ duty one was the
question, What will people say OF me.
" do ~ and sa7" lie had experienced
'"i- temptation Ia receiving the Cos
pei. n should be cast aside ~ soon ~
possible. and We should do right not
withdrawing the opinions ~ men.
the other question was, How much
shall 7 riva1' There Was tendency to
he penurious In giving, and that which
was RUSTY withheld would be a
scvrce Of anxiety. The safe plan was
10 rive n little more than the required
amount. and by this means the tempta-
tion would be- vanauished. The safe
course for all. was TO retain the Spirit
81 God. and walk under IL direction.
Under these conditions. no one would
need Ia walk In darkness, and all would
be- guided IN the affairs " life. THIS
Spirit should not be baniahcd from ua
By the sins to which We are liable.
The blessing of God was pronounced
upon tho SnintE and the world. 20 prc-
pare them for the Kingdom Of God.

Abraham'r great trial was not placed

test the extent to which he was willing
10 obey God An honest tithing was
onc-tenth OF what the individual
earned. The speaker. IN his childhood.
had seen his ideal In regard TO tithing
carried out by the widow who had been
driven into the wilderness by the
ruthless hand Of persecution. She paid
n tenth OF all her property, without
deductions of any kind. sh. had
never asked for help. because God had
assisted her and lie would do the same
ny others who took n similar course.
u II too often the case that when men
become rich they become too poor-in
their minds-to pay tithing. The great
principle associated with this law was
that OF obedience To the VIII OF our
heavenly Fathcr,without which neither
Jesus. Jacob. Abraham nor Joseph
Smith could have maintained the POSI-
lions they now occupy.

to minglr with the Saints in Zion. but
too often they received cold treatment
from those OF their brethren and sis
tcrs. which sometimes caused them TO
feel that their company was not APP
precinted. Elder Wells endorsed the
remarks OF Elder kimbali with refer
encc TO the shaking Of hands. and urged
the Saints TO be more confederate Of
their brethren and sisters that unity
and love might prevail among them.
such was the aim Of tho Savior when
he was upon earth. He taught the peo.
pie to love one another. and to do good
10 those who hated them. In this way
the people would demonstrate their love
Of God. and show that In reality they
were striving TO follow In the footsteps
Of their Savior. Elder Wells exhorted
the Saints TO give heed to the .instric-
lions received from those IN authority
In the Church. for they werc men Of
God. and were inspired to give such
admonitlon M the Saints were In need
OF from time 10 time.
