| QUOTE OF THE DAY Joseph F. Smith |
|
“To [those who are] at a loss to know what to do, among all the various teachings that are extant in the world, I would say: Search the Scriptures, seek God in prayer, and then read the doctrines that have been proclaimed by Christ in his sermon on the mount, as found in Matthew, and as reiterated to the ancient saints upon this [the American] continent (III Nephi). Having studied these splendid standards, and searched deeply the significance of these matchless sentiments, you may defy the philosophies of the world, or any of its ethics to produce their equal” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph F. Smith, p. 40).

|
1839 - Just after midnight, several of the Twelve Apostles and other brethren arrived at Far West, Missouri, fulfilling the revelation recorded in Doctrine and Covenants 115 that the Twelve were to leave for their missions to Great Britain from Far West, Missouri. They met in council and excommunicated those who had been unfaithful during the difficult days at Kirtland and the expulsion from Missouri. They ordained Wilford Woodruff and George A. Smith members of the Quorum of Twelve Apostles. They then rolled a large stone to the southeast corner of the temple to lay the cornerstone of the Far West Temple. They sung a few hymns and then agreed to adjourn until some future time. Those there expressed their desire to finish building the Temple when the Lord opened the way for it to be accomplished. They then began their return to the safety of Illinois having fulfilled a revelation the enemies of the Church said would never be fulfilled.
