16 pages. Brother Curry states, "Nevertheless, in this day of wickedness and of onrushing judgment; in this day when dark clouds of a great storm are about to deluge the world--a storm far worse than any cyclone, or hurricane can ever be; in this day when all sinister forces of the adversary are being marshalled, to overcome the Son of God, to banish the forces and even the idea of righteousness to overthrow the Church of the living Christ--even in this day of catastrophic crisis, your heavenly Father who has foreseen these things, not only forewarns you, but would have the pleading entreaty of His Spirit work in you as a very powerful leaven, making over your lives until you become very much more Christlike, noble and unselfish, so, that, being thus, He might open the windows of Heaven unto you. You would thus be enabled to comprehend the deep things of the Spirit and to have great faith."

21 page articles from The Saints' Advocate on the abomination of polygamy. Brother Derry states, "Knowing the tenacity with which the people of Utah cling to the Bible as authority in behalf of polygamy, I have concluded to give the Bible history of that abomination, and show that there is no evidence in that sacred volume that it was ever given as a means of salvation or exaltation in the kingdom of God; and further, that the instances of its practice present no evidence of divine sanction, much less of divine appointment. I shall also refer to its history in the Book of Mormon."

Third in a series of six lectures given to the Melchisedec Priesthood at the RLDS Stone Church in Independence, Missouri, USA from October 3 to 13, 1966. Brother Oakman states, "Brethren, there is an outer, external world which is designed to minister the life of God to us. And there is also an invisible, interior, inner world, and it is this invisible interior world, the world that is within us, with which we have to do, so terribly important. And, all of the apparatus known to us as the universe, the whole flux of things created, the presence of our fellow men, our heritage, history, all things, are designed that we may take them inside us. And that there may be created in us, in each one of us a universe of discourse, which shall be truly in harmony with the Spirit, and the mind, and the will of our Heavenly Father."

Transcript for Endowment Lecture #3.

Brother Davis states, "Too many people erroneously confuse membership with spirituality and celestial glory. Latter Day Saint ministers have long expounded the doctrine that every man shall be judged according to the works done in the flesh. Christ, himself, said that we shall be known by the fruits which we bear. The church, when we join it, does not automatically put beneath us strong spiritual foundations; what it does do for us, however, is provide us with multiple avenues for the self-development of spiritual foundations. The church provides us with a set of doctrine, with a priesthood organization through which God administers to the needs of his people; the church provides us with a spiritual environment, with opportunities for the development and the expression of our talents. Only as we seek to expand our philosophy of social interrelationships, do we build within us strong spiritual foundations. Membership in the church provides us with the possibilities for constructing solid spiritual foundations--it is no guarantee of them."

Message from the Lord which Brother Curry felt should have been given at the Seminar on Zion held April 1-3, 1966 at the University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA, but it was not due to a very tightly scheduled program. A portion of the message states, "Hear me, oh My chosen poople, for even beyond these needs, I, the Lord, long to see the splendor of holy communities of Zion shine out to a distressed world. Yea, yea My people, there is not one, not one single community in the wide, wide world to which the sorrowing, noblehearted sons and daughters of men in all of the world can turn, and perceive and say: God dwells with these men and women of Zion."
