I don't blame anyone for not believing me, if I had not experienced it myself, I would not have believed it myself.
Joseph Smith, Jr.If you live up to your privileges, the angels cannot be restrained from being your associates.
Joseph Smith, Jr.What is the damnation of hell? To go with that society who have not obeyed His commands.
Joseph Smith, Jr.We think it would be wise in you to try to git [sic] influence by offering to print a paper in favor of the government as you know we are all friends to the Constitution yea true friends to that Country for which our fathers bled.
Joseph Smith, Jr.Great blessings await us at this time, and will soon be poured out upon us, if we are faithful in all things, for we are even entitled to greater spiritual blessings than they [the faithful at the time of Christ] were, because they had Christ in person with them, to instruct them in the great plan of salvation. His personal presence we have not, therefore we have need of greater faith.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
