“By faith we began, by hope we continue, and by revelation we shall obtain the whole.”

“Wherefore, we search the prophets, and we have many revelations and the spirit of prophecy; and having all these witnesses we obtain a hope, and our faith becometh unshaken, insomuch that we truly can command in the name of Jesus and the very trees obey us, or the mountains, or the waves of the sea.”

“It happens then that God may be approached; that we may ask of him, but if we do ask of him we must ask in Faith. We must believe. If we do not believe we will not obtain. This principle of faith seems to be the means of approaching the Almighty.”

“We cannot know what faith is if we have never had it, and we cannot obtain it as long as we deny it. Faith and doubt cannot exist in the same mind at the same time, for one will dispel the other.”

“Shall we always study to obtain more of these things, and not sometimes to be content with less?”

“If God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, why shouldn't we forgive? If we are faithful and just, we shall.”
