Journal Entry

June 29, 1851 ~ Sunday

289th Sunday President Young remarked I Join in testimony
with the Brethren I wish to be a doer of the word I feel the import
ance of the remarks of the last speaker Brother Spencer those
who are not ready to meet the Bridegroom will not be invited
to the supper and the time is near. Jesus Christ is an ensam-
ple to all Saints, He was filled with wisdom in his youth but in
his childhood & infancy He was like other children. It has
been said that He was in infancy wise as in manhood but this
is not the case He was subject to temptation as we are but was
not overcome by it. If we have become acquainted with our follies
let us put them away & apply our hearts unto wisdom. let us have
compassion on others as we wish God to have compassion
on us we should increase in wisdom untill the day of redemption
No person can receive all at once but increase little by little untill
the day of perfection. Apply our hearts to wisdom & it will produce
peace, health, wealth & evry good thing. should you see a people
carry out the principles of wisdom peace would be the fruit &

It is a startling Idea to think we are worshiping a God that once was once in the situation that we are in ourselves they had to pass through a probation of pain, suffering & the fall like ourselves & He made perfect through sufferings. The Son of God passed through it & the Father would not require of a son what He would not do Himself. All our sufferings will exhalt us in the presence of God if we endure them patiently.
~ Brigham Young
if all men would do right & were saints but the net has gathered all kinds good bad & worse let twelve men get drunk in this community & it ruins the place in the estimation of of good men we have to bear the character of the drunkard a few stinking fish in the net defile it. & the whole net stinks and it creates a prejudic against it.
~ Brigham Young
it is now but I say unto all men who are saints put to your hands & help build up Zion & the Kingdom of God we are scholars in the great school & must learn we are a kingdom & must bring the kingdom in subje[c]tion to the will of God

Those who are not ready to meet the Bridegroom will not be invited to the supper; and the time is near. Jesus Christ is an example to all Saints He was filled with wisdom in his youth; but in his childhood and infancy he was like other children. It has been said that he was in infancy wise as in manhood but this is not the case He was subject to temptation as we are but was not overcome by it. If we have become acquainted with our follies let us put them away and apply our hearts to wisdom.

Apply your hearts to wisdom and it will produce peace health wealth and every good thing. Should you see a people carry out the principles of wisdom, peace would be the fruit and you would never see contention unto the day of your death. Ask the world if they do not like a people who live in peace and are
