If, Therefore, A Man Will So Live

Reading Is Good, Hearing Is Good, Conversation And Meditation Are Good; But Then, They Are Only Good At Times And Occasions, In A Certain Degree, And Must Be Used And Governed With Such Caution As We Eat And Drink And Refresh Ourselves, Or They Will Bring Forth In Us The Fruits Of Intemperance.

The Prophet Had Made Dishonorable Proposals To My Wife... Under Cover Of His Asserted 'revelation.'... Smith Told His Wife Jane The Lord Had Commanded That He Should Take Plural Wives, To Add To His Glory... Joseph Asked Her To Give Him Half Her Love; She Was At Liberty To Keep The Other Half For Her Husband.

We May Justly Condemn Ourselves As The Greatest Sinners We Know Because We Know More Of The Folly Of Our Own Heart Than We Do Of Other People's.

If Religion Commands Universal Charity, To Love Our Neighbors As Ourselves, To Forgive And Pray For All Our Enemies Without Any Reserve; It Is Because All Degrees Of Love Are Degrees Of Happiness, That Strengthen And Support The Divine Life Of The Soul, And Are As Necessary To Its Health And Happiness, As Proper Food Is Necessary To The Health And Happiness Of The Body.

We Have All Of Us Free Access To All That Is Great, And Good, And Happy, And Carry Within Ourselves A Key To All The Treasures That Heaven Has To Bestow Upon Us. We Starve In The Midst Of Plenty, Groan Under Infirmities, With The Remedy In Our Own Hand; Live And Die Without Knowing And Feeling Anything Of The One Only God, Whilst We Have It In Our Power To Know And Enjoy It In As Great A Reality As We Know And Feel The Power Of This World Over Us; For Heaven Is As Near To Our Souls As This World Is To Our Bodies; And We Are Created, We Are Redeemed, To Have Our Conversation In It.
