It is impossible to unite Christ and Baal -- their spirits cannot unite, their objects and purposes are entirely different the one leads to eternal life and exaltation, the other to death and final destruction.

More quotes by Brigham Young
If I have one wish which is greater than another, it is, if I had the power, to make men do right to make them stop their swearing, their lying, their deceiving, to stop trying to injure the innocent, and begin to be honest and upright in all their dealings with one another and honor the name of the Deity.
Brigham Young
There is neither man or woman in this Church who is not on a mission. That mission will last as long as they live, and it is to do good, to promote righteousness, to teach the principles of truth, and to prevail upon themselves and everybody around them to live those principles that they may obtain eternal life
Brigham Young
I have known a great many men who have left this Church for whom there is no chance whatever for exaltation, but if their blood had been spilled, it would have been better for them. The wickedness and ignorance of the nations forbid this principle's being in full force, but the time will come when the law of God will be in full force.
Brigham Young
If you don't feel like praying, pray until you do!
Brigham Young
No man or woman in this dispensation will ever enter into the celestial kingdom of God without the consent of Joseph Smith...every man and woman must have the certificate of Joseph Smith, junior, as a passport to their entrance into the mansion where God and Christ are
Brigham Young
Remember, a chip on the shoulder is a sure sign of wood higher up.
Brigham Young
It is for us to do those things which the Lord requires at our hands, and leave the result with him.
Brigham Young
Some wise being organized my system, and gave me my capacity, put into my heart and brain something that delights, charms, and fills me with rapture at the sound of sweet music.
Brigham Young
Kind looks, kind actions, kind words, and a lovely, holy deportment towards them will bind our children to us with bands that cannot easily be broken while abuse and unkindness will drive them from us, and break asunder every holy tie that should bind them to us and to the everlasting covenant in which we are all embraced.
Brigham Young
If you are without bread, how much wisdom can you boast and of what real utility are your talents, if you cannot procure for yourselves and save against a day of scarcity those substances designed to sustain your natural lives?
Brigham Young
When people learn to master their feelings, they can soon learn to master their reflections and thoughts in the degree requisite for attaining the objects they are seeking. But while they yield to a feeling or spirit that distracts their minds from a subject they wish to study and learn, so long they will never gain the mastery of their minds.
Brigham Young
In the beginning, after this earth was prepared for man, the Lord commenced his work upon what is now called the American continent, where the Garden of Eden was made. In the days of Noah, in the days of the floating of the ark, he took the people to another part of the earth the earth was divided, and there he set up his kingdom
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
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 love the Constitution and government of this land, but I hate the damned rascals that administer the government.
Brigham Young
There is no calling of God to man on earth but what brings with it the evidence of its authenticity.
Brigham Young
... I believe the Father came down from heaven, as the apostles said he did, and begat the Saviour of the world for he is the ONLY-begotten of the Father, which could not be if the Father did not actually beget him in person.... I believe the Father came down in His tabernacle and begat Jesus Christ.
Brigham Young
We want men to rule the nation who care more for and love better the nation's welfare than gold and silver, fame or popularity.
Brigham Young
The time will come that gold will hold no comparison in value to a bushel of wheat.
Brigham Young
God himself is increasing and progressing in knowledge, power, and dominion, and will do so, worlds without end.
Brigham Young
