is the work Of God, and re-
joce to know it, Amen.
Elder Misner Of American Fork, just
returned missionary from the state OF
New York, said :: The happiest time OF
my life has been spent on my mission.
There are about seven millions Of peo-
pie in that state, and about twenty
elders. just think OF the work needed
to warn that number. always looked
forward 20 the coming OF new elders
and new help. The church was organ
ized in that state and the work is pro-
crossing theie, il slowly. When 8 years
OF age ! went on a visit to Ohio, and
the people there asked me many ques-
tons, being but n boy, vet they asked
more Of me than of the elders. Let us
be prayerful and depend upon God and
He will aid us. l testify to the truth Of
this work. Amen.
Duet, "0ver the Stars There Is Rest"
Elder McMurrin We do not believe
that any man can teach the gospel by
his own wisdom, nor can any school
qualify one for that work, but follow
ing the plan OF the Savior. Not many
great or wise have been chosen, but the
weak OF the world chosen to confound
the wise. This is true OF us in our day
as Of old. Sometimes this is referred to
by the world with regard to us Some
think this is against the work, but we
find it has always been God's plan, and
1t proves this is Gods work now as in
the past. rejoice with our returned
brethren, but they did not find the
world in love with them. This was re-
ierred TO yesterday by Elder Jensen
This is strange thing that we should
be singled cut from all the rest, but IL
Is a proof that we are not OF the world
therefore the world hates US as the
Savior said thoy would. We do not he
-lieve it to be in the power OF man to
convert ANY one, we believe that TO bo
Gods work. Quoted from Matt. 9th,
Blessed are YOU when they shall reyile
you and prosecute you" Aud seeing
we have the sumo truths we should not
be surprised that they draw the line in
the same manner. IL may seem
strange that men protesting to be
Cody should speak evil OF us, but un-
der the Sayior's rule it would be stran-
ger still il they did not. Quoted Jesus
'Ii you were G1 the word the
world would love you, but being
chosen out OF the world therefore the
world hates US" This was true Of
Christ himself and therefore cannot
vary, and this opposition is not going
to change, but will continue az long as
Gods work shall continue.
