Love Is One Of The Chief Characteristics

I Am The Greatest Advocate Of The Constitution....the Only Fault I Find With The Constitution Is, It Is Not Broad Enough To Cover The Whole Ground. Although It Provides That All Men Shall Enjoy Religious Freedom, Yet It Does Not Provide The Manner By Which That Freedom Can Be Preserved, Nor For The Punishment Of Government Officers Who Refuse To Protect The People In Their Religious Rights, Punish Those Mobs, States, Or Communities Who Interfere With The Rights Of The People On Account Of Their Religion. Its Sentiments Are Good, But It Provides No Means Of Enforcing Them.

Happiness Is The Object And Design Of Our Existence.

It Is Said That Brother Joseph In His Lifetime Declared That The Elders Of This Church Should Step Forth At A Particular Time When The Constitution Should Be In Danger, And Rescue It, And Save It. This May Be So; But I Do Not Recollect That He Said Exactly So. I Believe He [joseph] Said Something Like This - That The Time Would Come When The Constitution And The Country Would Be In Danger Of An Overthrow; And Said He, If The Constitution Be Saved At All, It Will Be By The Elders Of This Church. I Believe This Is About The Language, As Nearly As I Can Recollect It.

Search Your Hearts, And See If You Are Like God. I Have Searched Mine, And Feel To Repent Of All My Sins.

The Heads (plural) Of The Gods Appointed One God For Us; And When You Take That View Of The Subject, It Sets One Free To See All The Beauty, Holiness And Perfection Of The Gods.
