“Man is, that he may have Joy.”
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints“The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints affirms her possession of divine authority for the use of the sacred name, Jesus Christ, as the essential part of her distinctive designation. In view of this exalted claim, it is pertinent to inquire as to what special or particular message the Church has to give to the world concerning the Redeemer and Savior of the race, and as to what she has to say in justification of her solemn affirmation, or in vindication of her exclusive name and title.

Kristen McMain Oaks, A Single Voice“Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed.”
Joseph Smith Jr., The Doctrine and Covenants of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints“If man will not recognize the inequalities around him and voluntarily, through the gospel plan, come to the aid of his brother, he will find that through ‘a democratic process’ he will be forced to come to the aid of his brother.

They got ‘something for nothing,’ and they will neither appreciate the gift nor the giver of the gift.”
