Discourse 1867-03-24
Elder Wilford Woodruff in a few spirited re-
marks showed that individuals or a people who
are led to obey the commandments of God by
seeing miracles, require to be fed with miracles
constantly or they will apostatize and forsake
the truth. Such has been our whole experience,
and so it was with ancient Israel as a people
from the time that Moses led them out of Egypt
until Jerusalem was taken by the Roman arm-
ies and its inhabitants dispersed. [Exodus 14] Their faith
was strong only as the Lord manifested His
power visibly in their behalf. They who embrace
the gospel for love of the truth, receive the Spir-
it of truth and have the testimony abiding with
them; they receive a glory in proportion to their
faithfulness and righteousness.
