Now the inspiration of the Lord will reveal to any person which course wisdom would dictate us to persue And the Latter day Saints throughout Israel should understand that the first Presidency of the Church And the Twelve Apostles are ledof and guided by the inspiration of the Lord And the Lord will not permit me nor any other man to lead the People Asstray)
