Discourse 1868-02-09
Elder W. Woodruff. Remarked that we are in a great school, the principals of which are numerous & important We should prize our liberty, our priviledges, the gospel of life and salvation, the holy priesthood, the living oracles, the written word, and the promise of eternal life. We should labor to build up the Kingdom of God, to overcome the world, the flesh and the Devil The more of the spirit of God a prson has the more they are like Him. We are under obligations before the Lord to live so as to possess enough of the Holy spirit to keep his com- mandments and the counsels given to us by His servants
