Blessed are you [Orson Pratt] because you have believed; And more blessed are you because you are called of me to preach ... unto a crooked and perverse generation. 34:4
Trivia: According to the three grand keys that are provided in Section 129, how can you tell if a messenger from God is an angel, the spirit of a just man made perfect, or the devil?
26:1-2 1 Behold, I say unto you that you shall let your time be devoted to the studying of the scriptures, and to preaching, and to confirming the church at Colesville, and to performing your labors on the land, such as is required, until after you shall go to the west to hold the next conference; and then it shall be made known what you shall do.
2 And all things shall be done by common consent in the church, by much prayer and faith, for all things you shall receive by faith. Amen.
Everything in the church will be done by common consent. [1]
Amen.
A democratic church. Seems like a good idea.
But it's more a matter of interpretation.
There's an interesting Mormon blog that was inspired by this verse: By Common Consent.
