QUOTE OF THE DAY Thomas S. Monson |
|
“We have in common the gospel of Jesus Christ. And we know it is our responsibility to share the truths of the gospel with others. One of the chief ways in which we can share the gospel is to be a righteous example, and it is about this that I wish to speak to you today. The Apostle Paul admonished, ‘Be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.’ He also wrote that the followers of Christ should be ‘as lights in the world.’ “This is what I would hope for each of us—that we might be a light to the world” (“Be a Light to the World,” BYU Devotional, November 1, 2011).

1844 - A few moments later the attack on the jail began. Hyrum was killed first. John Taylor was shot and he fell under the bed, but survived. Willard Richards was not injured. The Prophet Joseph sprang to the window and was shot. Falling out the window he said, “O Lord, my God!” The mob dispersed almost immediately when a call went up that “the Mormons are coming.” A message was sent to Nauvoo written by Willard Richards that stated, “Joseph and Hyrum are dead. Taylor wounded, not very badly. I am well.
