Spartacus, born in 109 BC and died in 71 BC, was a key figure in the Roman slave rebellion. He was born in Greece and later sold into slavery in Rome.

Although the rebellion was eventually suppressed by the Roman government, Spartacus' name and story have inspired imaginations about slave uprisings and the struggle for freedom throughout history. more

To prepare tabernacles for them; to take a course that will not tend to drive those spirits into families of the wicked, where they will be trained in wickedness, debauchery, and every species of crime. It is the duty of every righteous man and woman to prepare tabernacles for all the spirits they can. This is the reason why the doctrine of plurality of wives was revealed, that the noble spirits which are waiting for tabernacles might be brought forth.”

When our father Adam came into the garden of Eden, he came into it with a celestial body, and brought Eve, one of his wives, with him. He helped to make and organize this world. He is Michael, the Archangel, the Ancient of Days! about whom holy men have written and spoken -- He is our Father, and our God, and the only God with whom we have to do. Every man upon the earth, professing Christians or non professing, must hear it, and will know it sooner or later.”
