I remember my brother quoting "the standard of truth" in a talk he gave some 4- 5 years ago. The talk was incredible and the Spirit so strong when he quoted it. One of those moments I'll always remember because of the Spirit bearing witness to my spirit. A neat experience.
Lately, this standard of truth has been on my mind a lot. So the last couple days I have worked to memorize it. I am proud to say I can quote it now from memory.
"The standard of truth has been erected; No unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing; persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, armies may assemble, calumny may defame, but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent, till it has penerated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished, and the Great Jehovah shall say the work is done."
-Joseph Smith
Oh my! You must be my daughter! I have been thinking about Ben giving that talk. It was incredible. How neat that you memorized it. We all need to
