Lorenzo Hatch said: when saints !
have the spirit of the work they can
comprehend its magnitude. The test
imony of the spirit of God is all that |
we can rely on. Friedrich civilians, |
who was once a leader in the church, |
lost this spirit and his mind became
darkcned. | went through the Nau-
VOC Temple and can testify that the
ordinances today are the same as were
administered in carly days and as
they were revealed to the Prophet
Joseph. Young men, be liberal in
doing good and you VIII be rewarded

stated he would not be fully known

Apostle ClawSon said Logan is a
h great educational center and a tenn
c pie city. The residents here should
o feel highly favored. The Lord does not
e approve of ignorance for he desires his
J. children to become intelligent. The
z. work performed on the farm, in stores
e as merchants or in professions per-
Il tain to time, and at the time of dissO.
luton these labors will change. Per
d sons should not devote. all of their
y energies pertaining to worldly affairs;
/ but to the cultivation of their spirit
9 ual development. Our temple work
Y should be attended to- The floating
J. element amongst the people are
l. blind to their own interests in not be-
5. ing identified with some ward. They
= cannot have the privileges Of the tenn
pie. 1t appears that such characters
? do not desire to participate in the
labors of the church. This being
their feelings the Lord may possibly
consider that all such will have no
claim upon his blessings. People who
lived before the gospel dispensation
are as dear to the Lord as we are, for
all are his children. They stand as
our ancestors and temple work should
be done for them There is too much
indifference amongst the people in
this regard. In the day Of Judgment

will be shining stars in eternity.
