Discourse 1889-04-29
Pres. W. Woodruff, spoke of the Priesthood not remaining
on the earth longer than one centryury after the death of Jesus.
it is now again restored to the earth, was conferred upon
Joseph and Oliver Cowdery, it is the power of eternal life,
and belongs to the celestial kingdom. spoke of the perfect
unity of the father, son & Holy Ghost, in mind and affinity.
there is no division in them, neither in the celestial kingdom
of God. alluded to the growing disposition in ma[n]y of the
young men to a division especialy in political matters.
I hope never to see the young men drawing off from their
Fathers, and set up an independant position. I expect better
things of them. I trust they will not disappoint the Prophet and
their Fathers wilbut will carry on this work. The judgements
of God await the wicked, and also this nation, if they
repent not. Joseph Smith holds the keys of the Priesthood
in this generation, and will hold the same through eternity.
