Church. I see some going to the right some to the left some after
gold and the riches of this life I said I would tell the
Brethren my feelings I said I would go to work &
build a Tabernacle & worship the Lord so that we
would not be driven home by a storm I saw also
that some would say I cannot go for I must take care
of my cattle my farm my fields &c But I said I would
go & worship God as long as I wished If the whole
Earth sunk. Some delight in a fine Horse farm or
House or good things ofin this life But this is nothing to
you it is good in its place. But you cannot pray because
you cannot spend time. Some women cannot spend
time to have prayers you know it is your duty to pray
& dedicate yourselves to God & your family & all you
possess Some feel as though they must go to night to
the canyons. But if you will harken to council you will say
to all the world Stand By I am going to worship the Lord
let the dead Bury the dead and dedicate myself & family &
all I have to the Lord. No matter whather the Lord sets
you about go at it & do it. Their is a great change with
this people we have been sick now are well have been
poor now are rich. Have been distressed & mobed norw
have peace How long will it last as long as this people
do right It has been 22 years since this Church was
organized we should serve the Lord Love the Lord with
all our heartts scease to do wrong or find fault with any
of the Saints if they do wrong chastize them & not
hate them. are the people prepared to make a covenet
to dedicate themselves & their hearts to God from
this hour I feel to urge all the Brethrn & Sisters to
dedicate themselves unto the Lord. If we can
gain the victory & say I will do the work of the Lord in
all things. If He will make his will known I will
perform it Not ownly say but perform it dedicate our
our affections unto the Lord. we may find some that
cannot feel it. they say I want some gold or somthing
to help myself with to get out of difficulty what will
be done in such a case. I will tell you what I would do If
I had got but one cow & she plagued me I would
give her away if you have any thing that is in your way
give it away to the public works Let nothing get between
you & God And I will tell you what to do if any thing
gets between you & God give it to the service of God for
you cannot get through the gate of the Celestiacl city
why are you not as pure as the Church of Enoch because
you are not a mind to be I will make my hands do the will
of God & my heart will go with it. The spirit of envy will
not obey then unite your interest with this kingdom for
this kingdom will stand forever then put your inter
est with it so that you cannot get away then you will
stick to the kingdom but if your purse of gold is in your
pocket & you Apostitize you will go away but if your interest
is in the church & do wrong you may stay untill you get
the spirit of God again & may be saved we must build
