More quotes by Brigham Young
A man who did not have but one wife in the Resurrection that woman will not be his but be taken from him & given to another.
Brigham Young
Every day is judgment day-use it.
Brigham Young
Fear arises from the weakness of the flesh over which the devil has power.
Brigham Young
Do not reject anything because it is new or strange, and do not sneer nor jeer at what comes from the Lord, for if we do, we endanger our salvation.
Brigham Young
I believe in sisters marrying brothers, and brothers having their sisters for wives... This is something pertaining to our marriage relation. The whole world will think what an awful thing it is. What an awful thing it would be if the Mormons should just say we believe in marrying brothers and sisters.
Brigham Young
Don't try to tear down other people's religion about their ears, Build up your own perfect structure of truth, and invite your listeners to enter in and enjoy it's glories.
Brigham Young
I honor and revere the name of Joseph Smith. I delight to hear it I love it. I love his doctrine. I feel like shouting Hallelujah, all the time, when I think that I ever knew Joseph Smith, the Prophet whom the Lord raised up. I am bold to say that, Jesus Christ excepted, no better man ever lived or does live upon this earth. I am his witness.
Brigham Young
God never made something out of nothing it is not in the economy or law by which the worlds were, are, or will exist
Brigham Young
The present Constitution, with a few alterations of a trifling nature, is just as good as we want and if it is sustained on this land of Joseph, it will be done by us and our posterity.
Brigham Young
One thing is certain, wherever we go there is a proof that the people are keeping the commandments of the Lord, especially the first one -- to multiply and replenish the earth.
Brigham Young
My faith does not lead me to think the Lord will provide us with roast pig, bread already buttered, etc. He will provide us with the ability to raise the grain.
Brigham Young
'Mormonism' has made me all I am and the grace, the power, and the wisdom of God will make me all that I ever will be, either in time or in eternity.
Brigham Young
He that confesseth not that Jesus has come in the flesh and sent Joseph Smith with the fullness of the Gospel to this generation, is not of God, but is anti-christ
Brigham Young
Sin keeps a man from prayer, and prayer keeps a man from sin.
Brigham Young
All that the Lord requires of us is strict obedience to the laws of life. All the sacrifice that the Lord asks of his people is strict obedience to our own covenants that we have made with our God, and that is to serve him with an undivided heart.
Brigham Young
There is not a man or woman, who violates the covenants made with their God, that will not be required to pay the debt. The blood of Christ will never wipe that out, your own blood must atone for it . . .
Brigham Young
When all the other children of Adam have had the privilege of receiving the Priesthood, and of coming into the kingdom of God, and of being redeemed from the four quarters of the earth, and HAVE RECEIVED THEIR RESURRECTION FROM THE DEAD, then it will be time enough to remove the curse from Cain and his posterity.
Brigham Young
God himself is increasing and progressing in knowledge, power, and dominion, and will do so, worlds without end.
Brigham Young
When you ... see our Father, you will see a being with whom you have long been acquainted, and He will receive you into His arms, and you will be ready to fall into His embrace and kiss Him. ... You will be so glad and joyful. ... When you are qualified and purified, ... you can endure the glory of eternity.
Brigham Young
He is our Father - the Father of our Spirits, and was once a man in mortal flesh as we are, and is now an exalted being.
Brigham Young
