apostates in this Church. they never scease to try
to hurt me. they have got the same spirit the devil
had. you cannot save them. they make open
war like the devil. stay all that hear. dont make
any hasty mooves you may be saved. if a spirit
of Bitterness is in you, dont be in haste. Say you
that man is a sinner. well if he repents he
shall be forgiven. I could go back and trace evry
subject of interest concerning the relationship of
man to God if i had time. their is many mansions
in my fathers Kingdom. [John 14:2] what have we to console
us in relation to our dead. we have the greatest
hope in relation to our dead of any people on
earth we have seen them walk worthy on earth
and those who have died in the faith are now
in the selestial kingdom of God. they have gone
to await the resurrection of the dead to go to
the celestial glory, while their is many who die
who will have to wait many years. But I am
authorized to say to you my friends in the name of
the Lord that you may wait for your friends to come
forth to meet you in eternity in the morn of the
celestial world. those Saints who have been murdered
in the persecution shall triumph in the celestial
world while their murderers shall dwell in torment
untill they pay the utmost farthing.
I have Fathers, Brothers, children, that are gone to
eternity soon to meet me. the time will soon be
gone, the trump will soon be blown. A question
will Mothers have their children in Eternity
yes, yes, you will have the children ^But^ as it falls
so it will rise. It will never grow. It will be
in its precise form as it fell in its mothers
arms. Eternity is full of thrones upon which
dwell thousands of children reigning on thrones
of glory not one cubit added to their stature
