in the administration of the sacrament APOSTLE JOHN W TAYLOR addressed the congregation he presumed it was the object of all present to seek to know the way of life in other words to seek to know the mind and will of our heave heavenly father concerning his children here upon earth taking up the text enterlein enter yein ye in at the strait gate for wide is the gate and broad is themay the way that to destruction and many there be which go in thereat because strait is the gate and narrow is the way which unto olife life andiew there be that find it I 1 the speaker said he had been led to ID a quote bote this say saying I 1 ng of the savior in order orar to remind his bearens that there is a way and a means whereby men can be saved paved if they will but follow the path which has been laid out before them he was himself born and raised among the latter day saints he had been taught the gospel as understood by them from his infancy and he did not believe in any doctrines which were not substantiated by the holy scriptures doubtless some few of those present that afternoon had come for the special pur purpose po se of witnessing the ceremonies in Jn connection with the religious worship of the latter lay saints there was a great lack of correct information among the people at large even among those in this nation with regard to the latter day saints their faith and practices practices the members of title R church formerly belonged to the various denominations of the day and were therefore familiar with the different doctrines taught thereby the reason he was a mormon today was not because his father and mother were mor mons but because he be was convinced through the reading and studying of the holy scriptures that the doctrines entertained by the latter day saints were of god he believed in perfect religious liberty unto all men he further believed however that every man who belonged to any particular religious denomination should be able to give an intelligent reason for the faith and hope which he expressed concerning eternal life it should be a serious reflection among all professing christians as to how they can most surely enter in at the strait gate yet after all it was not a difficult problem to solve for isaiah speaking of the gospel said it was so plain and simple that a wayfaring man though a fool might understand it apostle taylor referred to the feast of pointed out that there were present on that occasion devout men and women frum rum many different nations actions and religious sects of that day so 80 it was as in our day we had amongst us a multitude of faiths such for instance as the roman catholics the methodists the baptists baptiste the episcopalians Episcopal ians the Campbel lites the ians and so on the apostle peter admont admonished shed the he people to repent and be baptized in the name of jesus christ for the remission of sins and the ro recaption caption of the holy ghost but the question naturally arose what is the holy ghost so that when we had received it we might be sure of its possession he had been among many religion r eligi ou denominations and found taft apparently a parent ly extremely happy inythe belief belief that they possessed the holy ghost and even the so called poor deluded cormons mormons Mor mons out west in the region of the rocky mountains claimed to have bave the holy ghost the savior himself bad described what the holy ghost was and always would be speaking unto the twelve apostles he said when I 1 am gone my father will send you a comforter Comfort cr who is the holy ghost who shall sho take of the things 0 of the father and reveal them unto you P it seemed then that he was a medium of revelation revealing the things of our heavenly father unto the children of men paul said prove all things hold fast that which is good that was the theme of the latter day saints he knew the church and religion of god clod were established upon the earth and would continue to grow ow all and d increase and that our eow E lorland ord and savior would come and reign in righteousness amongst men the lord appeared unto joseph smith and said that the children of god had gone astray from the way of lite life and salvation he commanded him to preach the gospel unto all people and it was being rapidly carried throughout the whole world today among all nations kindreds and tongues in conclusion he be urged the latter day saints to I 1 live i ve lives of f righteous men to be prayerful and serve god faithfully in all things and his hie blessings would rest upon them abundantly the choir sang the anthem sing unto the lord 11 benediction by elder goddard THE PEOPLES convention january there were twenty two peoples peopled party primaries in this city held
