So says the revelstlon. It further tays, fIn consequenca of evils that do and will exist, in theminds of designing men " in the last days, this commandment is given." Now what these designs are, we are left to conjecture, but It is certainly something that would bring trouble and torrow upon the Saint?, or the Lord wouJ not have considered 1 1 neces-sarto give a special revelation concerning lit.
