doeth. Some Say Joseph is a fallen prophet because he does not bring forth more of the word of the Lord why does he not do it, are we able to receive it No not one in this room” he then chastised us for our wickedness & unbelief knowing that whome the Lord loveth he chasteneth & scourgeth evry son & daughter whome he receiveth, & if we do not receive it then are we bastards & not sons. On Revelation He said a man would command his son to dig potatoes than saddle his horse but before he done either tell him to do something els, this is all considerd right but the moment the Lord gives a commandment & revokes that decree and commands somthing els the prophet is then considerd fallen &c.
Because we will not receive chastisement at the hands of the prophet or the Lord chastises us with sickness & death. Let not any man publish his own righteousnes for others can do that for him sooner let him confess his sins & then he will be forgiven & bring forth more fruit. when A man is chastised he gets angry & will not endure it, The reason we do not have the secrets of the Lord revealed unto us is because we do not keep them but reveal them, what greater love hath any man than to lay down his life for his friend then we should fight for our friend untill we die
Elder arose & Said one thing lay was on his mind ie that we should be prepared to keep each commandmant as it came from the Lord by the mouth of the prophet, & as the Lord had commanded us to build a temple we should do it spedily [p. [3]]
