2-22-62 And I wish you to be able to say in all coming generations that brother Amasa Lyman told you the truth, a little truth, and your salvation and mine in the future will be the best evidence that it was so.

AML Quote of the Week:  5-10-62  Individuals thus possessing a knowledge of and being imbued with a love for the truth will need no foreign aid to lead them onward in the path of right.  Their own good appreciation of the truth will afford them all the incentives that are required, as their every feeling and affection will be devoted to purity and godliness and the extension of the truth.

AML Quote from Last Week: 1-1-62  but teach them purity and righteousness by precept and example; and then your labours will honor you and bless you when you are gone, from here, and the prayers of thousands will ascend to God for the purity and consistency of your actions, and children yet unborn will learn to bless your names and speak of them with honor,  This is the praise of love, worth more a thousand-fold than all the empty laudations that might be poured out concerning you.​​
