Let the saints remember
the great things depend on their individual exertion, and
that they are called to be co-workers with us and with the
holy spirit in accomplishing the great works of the last
days, and in consideration of the extent, the blessings, and
the glories of the same let every selfish feeling be not
only buried, but anihalated, and let love to God and man,
predominate and reign triumphant in every mind, that their
hearts may become like unto Enoch's of old so that they may
comprehend all things, present, past, and future, and "come
behind in no gift waiting for the coming of the Lord Jesus
Christ." The work in which we are unitedly engaged in, is
one of no ordinary kind, the enemies we have to contend
against are subtle and well skilled in maneuvering. It
behooves us then to be on the alert, to concentrate our
energies, and that the best feelings should exist in our
midst, and then by the help of the Almighty we shall go on
from victory to victory and from conquest unto conquest, our
evil passions will be subdued, our prejudices depart, we
shall find no room in our bosoms for hatred, vice will hide
its deformed head, and we shall stand approved in the sight
of heaven and be acknowledged "the sons of God." Let us
realize that we are not to live to ourselves but to God. By
so doing the greatest blessings will rest upon us both in
time and in Eternity.
