PREFACE

"Having been called of God we stand ready
to administer the ordinances of the Gospel and of the house of
God to the children of men; we stand ready to bear off this Gospel
to the nations of the earth, this great plan of salvation devised
by our Father. There has never been any other, and there never
will be. Men have tinkered at it, and tried to change and pervert
it; but their efforts do not change God's plan, it is like its
author-the same yesterday, to-day and forever. God is the fountain
of truth, righteousness and grace." (Daniel H. Wells,
Journal of Discourses, Volume 16:240) |
