 PREFACE

Back to Reference Library

"If I lay down the Book of Mormon, I shall have to deny that Joseph is a prophet; and if I lay down the doctrine and cease to preach the gathering of Israel and the building up of Zion, I must lay down the Bible; and consequently, I might as well go home as undertake to preach without these three items." (Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, Volume 6:279)

Other Interesting Quotes from Volume Six of the Journal of Discourses:

Joseph always told us that we would have to pass by sentinels that are placed between us and our Father and God. Then, of course, we are conducted along from this probation to other probations, or from one dispensation to another, by those who conducted those dispensations. (Heber C. Kimball, 22 November 1857, JD 6:63)
