SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Alma 46:10 | |
Yea, we see that Amalickiah, because he was a man of cunning device and a man of many flattering words, that he led away the hearts of many people to do wickedly; yea, and to seek to destroy the church of God, and to destroy the foundation of liberty which God had granted unto them, or which blessing God had sent upon the face of the land for the righteous’ sake.

QUOTE OF THE DAY Brigham Young | |
“Sustain the government of the nation wherever you are, and speak well of it, for this is right, and the government has a right to expect it of you, so long as that government sustains you in your civil and religious liberty, in those rights which inherently belong to every person born on the earth and if you are persecuted in your native land, and denied the privilege of worshipping the true God in spirit and in truth, flee to the land of Zion, to America—to the United States, where constitutional rights and freedoms are not surpassed by any nation—where God saw fit, in these last days, to renew the dispensation of salvation, by revelations from the heavens, and where all, by the constitution and laws of the land, when executed in righteousness, are protected in all the civil and religious freedom that man is capable of enjoying on earth; and our national institutions will never fail, unless it be through the wickedness of the people, and the designs of evil men in brief authority; for those rights were ordained of God on this land, for the establishment of the principles of truth on the earth; and our national organization originated in the heavens.” (MFP 2:98) For more Quote of the Day Click Here! | |

1820: Dawning of the Restoration by Richard E. Bennett What was the world like in 1820? Written to commemorate the bicentennial of the First Vision, this new book introduces the vision and the Restoration of the gospel within a global setting. Seeking to capture the qualities and essential meanings of the age, Richard Bennett explores what he calls the "four dominant constellations in the skies of early nineteenth century history"—namely, revolution and reform, Romanticism, emancipation and independence, and religious revivalism. From Napoleon to Beethoven to Bolivar, 1820: Dawning of the Restoration is a biographical examination of "the year of our Lord 1820" as it broke upon a weary world that was cautiously seeking new hopes, new dreams, and bold new visions—including Joseph Smith's.
