The Lord has sent us here "for a wise and glorious purpose," and it should be our business to find out what that purpose is and then to order our lives accordingly.

The work that we have to do here is of that nature that we cannot do it unless we have the assistance of the Almighty.

  • The god of the world is the gold and the silver. The world worships this god. It is all-powerful to them, though they might not be willing to acknowledge it. Now it is designed, in the providence of God, that the Latter-day Saints should show whether they have so far advanced in the knowledge, in the wisdom and in the power of God that they cannot be overcome by the god of the world. We must come to that point.

    "The Teachings of Lorenzo Snow: Fifth President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints".
