''The church teaches the whole truth
about God, and God is fully and complete
ly revealed in Jesus Christ. We are not
left in any state OF uncertainty as to
the nature OF God because OF the reve
lat,ons which have been handed down to
us. After reading a part of the Reve-
latiouS, he continued
In God We live and move and have
our being. Man Is that lie might have
Joy. the latter quotation being from
the Book of Mormon, according 10 the
speaker. Union has been accomplished
through Revelations. God has not wasted
his efforts through any man dying as We
call It prematurely. Therefore, you
should endure the death OF your loved
ones knowing the designs Of God.
