The Lord Gave Enough to Joseph Smith to Take Us to the Highest Degree of Glory in the Celestial Kingdom; The Lord Handles the Apostleship; Must Be Able to Stand in the Presence of the Savior; Love One Another The few moments that I stand before you, I pray that what I may say may be dictated by the Holy Ghost, for I know that unless we teach by the Spirit of the Holy Ghost, we don?t amount to much. I know one time down in Short Creek, one certain man got up and said certain things about me. I sat there and let them go. But I had brethren there that would not stand for it, and this brother was one of them, Brother Lawrence Stubbs. I had a man say to me the other day, ?Are you a legal successor?? I said, ?It does not matter who I am, just as long as I am set apart to teach this people. What does it matter to me about these things?? Now that is a question to all of us. Are we living these laws that will gain eternal life? That is what we are after, and don?t care how it comes or where it comes from. If we don?t teach the plan of life and salvation that has been laid down?let me tell you one thing, God gave a revelation to Joseph Smith, and He gave other revelations that we should teach the things that Joseph Smith gave to us. Another revelation was given to Hyrum Smith in which he said that the Lord had given all the principles and all the revelation that He would give to this dispensation. He gave us enough to get us into the highest degree of glory. After these things have been given, we go out into the highway and don?t follow the track. Why? Because one of our leaders said that the Church was on a detour. There is no detour in the Gospel plan, and when men say that, it comes from man and not from God, for God will not accept any man or anything that He has not called or ordained or appointed. I bear you my testimony that these men here have been called of God by direct revelation from God, and through the Prophets of God. Brother Woolley said, ?Now brethren, you pray for some good men, and I will pray. This quorum has got to be filled up.? A messenger was sent to Lorin Woolley and told him that that was none of his business and to keep out, that that was God?s business. Brothers and sisters, just as soon as God says, ?Fill up this quorum,? we will do it, but not until. We can see today what is coming. You don?t need much of a Prophet today to see what is coming, because it is here. What are we doing? You people are sent here. Fifteen thousand children are being sent here. Are we prepared to feed them? We heard them [the prophecies] with our ears, but never heard them. Brother Jedediah M. Grant killed himself trying to get the people to see these things. Save your grain; keep your grain. What is the result? There is nothing saved up. God has said His judgment is on the ground. We used to get seventy-five or a hundred bushels to an acre. Now we get ten bushels. Why is it? It is because we won?t listen, we won?t take any counsel. Brother Pratt said that he didn?t think that this law could be lived unless we took a choice people and went off to ourselves and lived it, and even then it would be very hard. But what are we going to do? Are we going to get ourselves prepared and live these laws of God? I will show you my faith with my works. If anything is wrong, we run to the doctors here and there. But when are we ever going to get so that we are going to the Elders who can lay their hands upon us and restore us? Do you think you could stand the Savior?s presence? When you go back to Jackson County, you are going to live so that the Savior is going to be with you in your midst. Now, if we will get the Spirit of God around us and take care and see what we do, and keep the Lord?s commandments, these things will come to us. We will be that way, and above all get the selfishness out. I think that nearly every one of us is like the poet says. He says, ?Of all the men, I love myself the best.? But the commandments say you have got to love your brother as yourself. Then when you get that way, you will say it is a different thing, because then you would just as soon they would have it as yourself. I am well pleased with the way that some are doing,
