THE WORK PROGRESSING—PROPHECY FULFILLED—WE SHALL ALL OBEY
THE LAW OF DEATH.
It was with pleasure I listened
this morning to the remarks of bro-
ther Snow, and wish that all the
people in this Stake had heard them.
We have had a great deal of preach-
ing, and need a great deal, and I
don't know that a people ever lived
who had more.
We are in the valleys of the
mountains for a special purpose—to
establish righteousness and live in
accordance with the principles of
truth. There never was a generation
of people who had so much to per-
form as the Latter-day Saints have.
This work is progressing, and it will
continue to advance. I have seen
the time when you could get the
whole Church into this room—when
there were a few High Priests, no
Apostles or Seventies, and only a few
Elders. I am as thoroughly satisfied
now as I ever was in my life, that
this is the kingdom of God. I am as
firm a believer in God, in the reve-
lations of God, in the Books of Mor-
mon and Doctrine and Covenants, as
I ever was. I have read the prophe-
cies of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and
other inspired writers, and have seen
some of them fulfilled, and expect
to see others have their literal ful-
fillment. God worked with the
children of men through revelation,
and he will continue to do so in this
generation. With him there is no
change; his ways are one eternal
round.
The Lord has directed and guided
this work from the beginning. The
prophecies relating to the present
dispensation—to Zion being estab-
lished in the tops of the mountains—
to the building of cities and Temples
