Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 65: April 2, 1903 In public life, in social intercourse, in the struggle for supremacy, we are constantly lacerating the feelings of others, and the wounds inflicted upon our feelings may be a hundred fold more painful than those that tear asunder the flesh. But the duty of life is ever demanding that wherever wounds are found, be they wounds of the flesh or wounds of the heart, they shall be healed. So the business of life, after all, consists so largely in the duty of making things right, that we cannot permit ourselves to imagine for one moment that we have left nothing undone, or that in the brush and bustle of human activities some tender spot may not have been wounded or some feeling bruised. The cultivation of kindly thoughts towards others is always helpful in the art of healing. It is sometimes helpful to lift ourselves out of our own shells in which, by our surroundings and habits of thought, we are incrusted, and place ourselves in the positions which others occupy in life. Constant con sideration for the welfare and happiness of others is every day imposed upon us by the divine injunction, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 80: April 4, 1918 Satan's plan of compulsion, whereby all would be forcibly guided through mortality. Bereft of freedom to act and agency to choose, so circumscribed that forfeiture of salvation would be impossible and not one soul could be lost, was rejected; and the humble offer of Jesus the Firstborn - to live among men as their Exemplar, observing the sanctity of man's agency while teaching men to use aright that divine heritage - was accepted. The decision brought war, which resulted in the vanquishment of Lucifer and his angels, and they were cast out, deprived of the boundless privileges incident to the mortal or second estate.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 65: July 2, 1903 Then again, where separate organizations have been formed, they are often at war with one another, and employers are made to bear the burden of their contentions. Recently in New York City there was a dispute between the masons and the electricians as to which should place certain holes in the walls to receive the electric wires. The contention stopped the work and the con tractors, by the rules of the labor union, were compelled to pay the men wages while the work was stopped and the contention was under way.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 65: August, 1903 On the way to the hotel We were surprised and interested by a custom that has since grown very familiar to us. Our cabman was evidently religious (though he did not scruple at demanding over twice the agreed and regular price at the end of the drive), and whenever he passed a church or shrine in the street he took off his strange-looking hat with his left hand, and made the sign of the cross with the right by touching his forehead, lower part of chest and shoulders. The falling rain did not deter him. Naturally this is an awkward thing for drivers to do, and many times they drop their reins for the moment while they attend to their worship. A curious coincidence at the hotel was that President Lyman found, shortly after becoming located, that in the adjoining room on one side Elder John F. Home was living and on the other Elder Kenneth Crismon had taken up his abode. These Elders from Germany had attended the dedication services at Christiania, and later visited Stockholm, thence sailing to St. Petersburg. Religious conditions among the Russians are naturally the most interesting subject to us, and to learn these was one of 'the motives President Lyman had for making the journey. There are many and conflicting currents of religion here; many that are deep and hidden which are not learned or understood without intimate association with the people. But in few places is it possible to see and at least partly understand the religion of the great majority. We went into the Kasan cathedral soon after arriving, and there saw a scene of most active worship. Russian churches have no seats, and there is room for the devotee to kneel or prostrate himself if he wishes. People of all classes were there. Beggars in their rags (their purpose being to obtain charity), the lame, the halt, the blind, laboring people, richly clad men and women, officers of the army, all kissed the same icons, made the cross and bowed before the images, and in some cases kneeled and touched their foreheads to the floor. One poor fellow, evidently with a heavy weight on his conscience, we noticed when we entered, making the cross, kneeling, bowing to the floor and rising again only to repeat the movements. During the whole time we were there he continued. The only thing to break the monotony of it was that some times he remained down for a few moments and smote his breast with his hand. The churches are open all day and the people come in and usually go out after a few moments' worship. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-12-10 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 65: April 23, 1903 Now, I do not desire to prolong my remarks this morning. I pray God to bless those who may speak to us and inspire them to say those things that will be instructive and beneficial, and that we all may enjoy that measure of the spirit of intelligence that we may divine rightly the word of truth, and that we all may receive meat in due season. That God may grant us these privileges and blessings is my prayer, in the name of Jesus. Amen. Elder seymour B. Young, of the First Seven Presidents of Seventies, was the next speaker. He was grateful to the Lord for the prosperity that attends the Saints everywhere. He had a testimony to bear - the same testimony that he had always borne. He rejoiced in the fact that our young people had so many opportunities of advancement and culture. Yet he regretted that there was so little manual training in our system of education. President Brigham Young used to teach this idea as a necessary part of every educational system. In speaking thus, Elder Young explained that he was not inclined to find fault with what the noble and devoted men and women were doing for our young people, both in our Church schools and in the auxiliary organizations of the Church. But he felt nevertheless that we ought to do more in the way of teaching manual training than we do. Our schools will always remain incomplete until they have departments where the mechanical arts are taught. Throughout our communities the Saints are in comparative comfort. In our outlying settlements it is a very rare thing to find an indigent person. There are exceptions to that in this city, for which there are sufficient reasons. But on the whole our people are very prosperous. And there are many evi deuces that there is improvement. We can see, in every stake, that the words of our leaders have been heeded. Especially is this the case with respect to the principle of tithing. The blessings of the Lord have been poured out upon the people yery markedly. Along with this prosperity, however, there may be noted an increase of. Op position. It has always been true that where the people of God are prosperous the powers of evil are more active. The Saints must expect, therefore, that Satan and his hosts will be the more alert. The powers of darkness are always arrayed against the power of light. Recently we have had an example of this in the treatment some of our missionaries have received in our own country. The speaker quoted a saying of the Prophet Joseph Smith to the effect that this antagonism would continue until the Lord overthrows the power of the devil. The only important consideration for us in this respect is that we de termine to withstand all the attacks made by the adversary of good. The Prophet Joseph was especially tried; and so were those men who succeeded him. No one can point to these and say truthfully that they ever failed in their allegiance to the Lord. The only reason Why they were persecuted was that they had been called of the Lord and they proved true to this sacred trust only because they knew their calling to be of God. Knowing this, they were strong in the power of the Spirit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 65: September 3, 1903 Now, in relation to the government of our Church; a word or two in order that we may understand it. In the first place, I lay down the principle, which I think is an infallible one - one that we must be governed by, - that is, that the priesthood after the order of the Son of God is the ruling, presiding, authority in the Church. It is divided into its various parts - the Melchizedek and the Aaronic - and all the quorums or councils are organized in the Church, each with special duties and special callings not clashing with each other, but all harmonious and united. In other words, there is no government in the Church of Jesus Christ separate and apart, above, or outside of, the holy priesthood or its authority. We have our Relief Societies, Mutual Improve ment associations, Primary associations, and Sunday schools, and we may organize, if we choose, associations for self-protection, and self-help among ourselves, not subject to our enemies, but for our good and the good of our people, but these organizations are not quorums or councils of the priesthood, but are auxiliary to, and under it; organized by virtue of the holy priesthood. They are not outside of, nor above it, nor beyond its reach. They acknowledge the principle of the holy priesthood. Wherever they are they always exist with the view of accomplishing some good; some soul's salvation temporal or spiritual. When we have a Relief Society, it is thus organized. It has its president and other officers, for the complete and perfect accomplishment of the purposes of its organization. When it meets, it proceeds as an independent organization, always mindful of the fact that it is such, by virtue of the authority of the holy priesthood which God has instituted. If the president of the stake comes into a meeting of the Relief Society, the sisters, through their president, would at once pay deference to him; would consult and advise with him, and receive directions from the presiding head. That head is the Bishop, in the ward, the president, in the stake, the presidency of the Church, in all the Church. The Young Ladies' and Young Men's associations, the Primary associations, and the Sunday schools are the same. All are under the same head, and the same rules apply to each.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 65: June 4, 1903 Mormon characters to Professor Charles Anthon, of New York, by Martin Harris. But it is well to remember that complete details of this transaction, and the statement of each side of the case, are given in Orson Pratt's Works (salt Lake edition), pages 295-7. A Similar account in briefer form is given in The History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, vol. I, chap. 3, and in the Life of Joseph Smith, Cannon, chap. 8. The thirty-seventh chapter of Ezekiel deals almost entirely with the great Latter-day work and might be made the subject of volumes of oommen taries. A few of the verses (16-19) distinctly foreshadow the writing and bringing forth of the Book of Mormon. These have been so fully discussed by almost every preacher and writer of our Church that the merest reference to them seems superfluous, and nothing can be added to what has already been said: Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions: and join them one to another into one Stick; and they shall become one in thine hand. And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these? Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 65: January 22, 1903 It would be better if every Elder who is a father rose to the dignity of his position, and officiated in his holy office within his family organization. He may call to his aid any others who are worthy holders of the requisite author ity in the Priesthood, but it is his privilege to stand as the head of his house hold, and to perform the ordinances pertaining to his family. The question arises, and has recently been presented in specific form, If an Elder performs the ordinance of naming and blessing his own child at home, is it necessary that the ordinance be repeated in the ward meeting? We answer, No the father's blessing is authoritative, proper, and sufficient. But every such case must be promptly reported to the Bishop of the ward, who will direct the clerk to make full and proper record of the matter, entering the name of the child, with date of birth and blessing, and all data as to parentage, etc., on the books of the ward. It is the duty of the Teachers and Priests in their house to house visitations among the people to see that all such reports are fully and promptly made. The repetition of the ordinance of naming and blessing children tends to diminish our regard for the authority and sanctity attending the father's blessing within the household.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 65: October 22, 1903 I desire to say to this congregation that the work of the Lord, to the best of my knowledge, has continued to grow and spread since our last conference, last April, six months ago. I can see no evidence of weakness, or of weaken ing among the Latter-day Saints. Everywhere that I have had the pleasure and Opportunity of traveling to visit the people, we have found them earnest in their work, earnest in their faith, earnest in their devotion to the kingdom of God in the earth, and living according to the knowledge that they possess, agreeable to the will of the Father, as it has been made known to them. There have been great improvements. We 'have built and completed and dedicated many houses of worship throughout the various stakes of Zion during the six months that have passed. There are many more in the course of erection, and many will no doubt be completed and dedicated and ready for the service of the people before we shall assemble again six months hence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 65: November 12, 1903 The speaker read a passage from the eleventh chapter of Deuteronomy and another from a section of the Doctrine and Covenants to show that the teach ings of the authorities of the Church to-day are the same as have always been taught by the servants of God. He admonished the Saints to daily read a chapter of the Bible, Book of Mormon, or the other standard Church works before their families. He felt anxious that we should impress the world with the fact that we love the Savior. He spoke of the influence of education, not only of the Church schools, but also of the district schools. He advised the Saints to send their children to the district schools, and not take them out at the sixth or seventh grade. He hoped that the Saints would see that their children are properly educated. He bore his testimony to the truth. The choir then sang, We thank Thee, O God, for a Prophet, and benedic tion was pronounced by Elder David H. Cannon.

This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 65: September 17, 1903 The inspired teachings of Moroni appeal to our reason. His great argument in favor of miracles, a part of which we have copied, is incontrovertible. If wonders were wrought by the faith of the Lord and His servants in former times, unless God alters, the same faith will bring forth similar blessings now. The absence of miracles cannot be accounted for by saying that knowledge is so extended that the need of these gifts has passed away. If Paul and his companions saw through a glass darkly, the best of men now can hardly claim a clearer vision; that which is perfect has not yet come. Jesus Himself being a doer of miracles, Christians will surely not maintain seriously that they are superfluous. On the face of this broad earth just as ignorant beings can be found now as were those with whom the Lord mingled, if it is thought that miracles were only for the ignorant. This, however, we will not admit. The Savior was no charlatan who played upon the ignorance of the people. It was among those who had faith that He performed His wondrous works. Where there was little faith He withheld His blessings. We can best conclude as Moroni declares that God ceased to do miracles among the children of men because they had dwindled in unbelief, departed from the right way, and no longer knew7 the God in whom they should trust.
