“Now, where a man in this church says, 'I don't want but one wife, I will live my religion with one,' he will perhaps be saved in the Celestial kingdom; but when he gets there he will not find himself in possession of any wife at all. He has had a talent that he has hid up. He will come forward and say, 'Here is that which thou gavest me, I have not wasted it, and here is the one talent,' and he will not enjoy it but it will be taken and given to those who have improved the talents they received, and he will find himself without any wife, and he will remain single forever and ever.” MenWantGivenEnjoyChurchForeverTakenWifeTalentPossessionSavedKingdomsCelestial Author:Brigham Young
“Today there survives more than 25,0000 partial and complete, ancient handwritten manuscript copies of the New Testament. These hand written manuscripts have allowed scholars and textual critics to go back and verify that the Bible we have in our possession today is the same Bible that the early church possessed 2,000 years ago.” YearsHandsTodayChurchWrittenBibleYears AgoCriticsAncientPossessionCopiesScholarPossessedTestamentNew TestamentManuscriptsVerify Author:Charlie Campbell
“We try to evade the question of existence with property, prestige, power, possession, production, fun, and, ultimately, by trying to forget that we- that I- exist. No matter how much he thinks of God or goes to church, or how much he believes in religious ideas , if he, the whole man, is deaf to the question of existence, if he does not have an answer to it, he is marking time, and he lives and dies like one of the million things he produces. He thinks of God, instead of experiencing God.” IfsThinkingMenTryingBelieveDoeIdeasMatterWholeWisdomDiesFunChurchReligiousAnswersForgetExistenceMillionsProducePropertyProductionsPossessionDeafPrestigeMarking TimeExperiencing God Author:Erich Fromm

“You will live to see men arise in power in the Church who will seek to put down your friends and the friends of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Many will be hoisted because of their money and worldly learning which they seem to be in possession of; and many who are the true followers of our Lord and Savior will be cast down because of their poverty.” MenSeemsJesusChristChurchLordPovertyJesus ChristCastsPossessionAriseFollowersSaviorWorldlyOur LordSavior Jesus Author:Joseph Smith, Jr.
