severed from their tabernacles and the devils that are in them shall have no tabernacles
to dwell in

The truth of the matter is there are many places which
we pass through that have been the slaughterin ground of the ancient Nephites
and Lamanites and the spirits of devils are hovering around it and if
you are not on your guard they will enter you and lead you captive at their
will; for if you are not governed by the Spirit of God you will be by the
spirit of the devil. If you are governed by the Spirit of God while in
such places and they cannot enter you ^any of you^ they will try to enter your cattle
your beast for they want to enter some tabernacle as they did the swine in
ancient days [Matthew 8:28-32]

I had rather go to the Mountains with the
Twelve alone and not to have another soul with us than to have those who
will not be subject to the Priesthood but practise wickedness and
serve the devil for if we continue with this company and they do not
repent the righteous will fall with the wicked

There are people in this camp who are stealing
hay and wood and I know who they are. Will I fellowship them?
No I will not; and because we know who is guilty of wickedness they think
we are fellowshiping them and doing the same ourselves but it is not
so. Joseph suffered much from the same cause. Because he
knew of the rascality and wickedness his enemies and many of the
Saints thought he was guilty of it himself. The truth of the matter
is those who are leading the house of Israel while in the path of their
duty know the wickedness that is among the people. It cannot
be hid from them for they are in vision all the time

I will now look a little upon the other
side of the question. I will say however that if we have a
mind to be subject to the will of the Devil—Death Hell and the
grave—we may be and bow down to it all the day long or
we may have perfect power and triumph over it

Who am I surrounded by? By men
who have entered into covenant with God who have received endowments in
