God reveals unto us light and truth and brings to our remembrance things which are according to the will of God which we should teach.

Every thing that God has made keeps the law of its creation and honors it except man. I have always marveled at this. Man- kind, who are made after the image of God to answer a high and noble purposes are the only beings in creation that will blaspheme his name and set at naught his authority. They have an agency, and the Spirit of God is of- fered to them as freely as the light of the sun, which shines on the just and on the un- just, if they would receive it.

No man ever did or ever will obtain salva- tion only thorugh the ordinances of the gospel, and through the name of Jesus. There can be no change in the gospel; all men that are saved from Adam to in[fi]nitum are saved by the one system of salvation. The Lord may give many laws, and many commandments to suit the varied circumstances and conditions of his children throughout the world, such as giving a law of carnal commandments to Israel, but the laws and principles of the gospel do not change. If any portion of this generation is saved it will be because they receive the gospel which Jesus Christ and his apostles preached. When the Lord inspires men and sends them to any generation, he holds that generation responsible for the manner in which they receive the testimony of his servants.
