“There are multitudes of pure and holy spirits waiting to take tabernacles, now what is our duty. 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.” MenReasonMightSpiritCoursesWaitingWifeCrimeDutyHolyPureMen And WomenSpeciesNobleDoctrineReason WhyHoly SpiritWickedRighteousMultitudesWickednessPolygamyDebaucheryRighteous Man Author:Brigham Young
