SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Ether 2:9 |
|
"And now, we can behold the decrees of God concerning this land, that it is a land of promise; and whatsoever nation shall possess it shall serve God, or they shall be swept off when the fulness of his wrath shall come upon them. And the fulness of his wrath cometh upon them when they are ripened in iniquity." |

QUOTE OF THE DAY John Taylor |
"When the people shall have torn to shreds the Constitution of the United States the elders of Israel will be found holding it up to the nations of the earth and proclaiming liberty and equal rights to all men, and extending the hand of fellowship to the oppressed of all nations. This is part of the program, and as long as we do what is right and fear God, He will help us and stand by us under all circumstances” (Journal of Discourses 21:8). |

TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY July 3 |

1841 - The Nauvoo Legion was “called out to celebrate our National Independence (the 4th being Sunday), and was reviewed by Lieutenant-General Joseph Smith, who made an eloquent and patriotic speech to the troops, and strongly testified of his regard for our national welfare, and his willingness to lay down his life in defense of his country, and closed with these remarkable words, ‘I would ask no greater boon, than to lay down my life for my country.’” A dinner was then held in the grove attended by officers of the Legion, “and many others, with their ladies.” (History of the Church, 4:382)
