Sept 10^th 1843 Sunday Morning

Conference met according to adjournment
Meeting was opened by singing & Prayer By Elder
Magin after which Elder W. Woodruff arose
& addressed the assembly from Amos 3 ch 7 ve[rse]
'Surely the Lord God will do nothing dut [but] he
revealeth his secrets ^un^to his servents the Prophets'
The speaker Remarked that according to the
Testimony of the scriptures in all ages of the world
whenever God was abot to Bring a Judgment upon
the world or accomplish any great work, the first
thing the Lord has done has been to raise up a prophet
& reveal unto him his secrets & send him to warn the
people, that they may be left without excuse. This
was the case in the days of Noah & Lot. God was
about to Bring Judgments upon the people & he raised
up prophet & warned them of it but they did not
give heed to them But rejected their Testimony
& the Judgments came upon them & they were
destroyed, while the prophets were saved by persui-
ng the course marked out by the Lord. Jesus Christ
Testifyed to the Jews of the things that awaited
them as a nation the fall of Jerrusalem & their
dispersion among the gentile world but they did
not believe it yet the secret of all these things
was revealed to the Prophet & Apostles & they
Believed it & looked for its fulfillment, & it
came to Pass as it was predicted, though conterary
to the expectations of the Jewish Nations. In like
manner do we look for the certain fulfillment of
those tremendous events upon the heads of the
gentile world, which have been spoken of & pointed
out by all the Holy Prophets & Apostles since the world
began who have spoken as they were moved upon
by the power of God & the gift of the Holy Ghost
