Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 71: August 5, 1909
Christ did not frown upon manual labor, for it is related of Him that He labored with His hands, but His lesson to those who would hearken unto Him, was that man's first duty on earth was to fit and prepare himself for an exceeding greater and more glorious existence in the life to come. He gives a promise in connection with the sermon above quoted, that is a test to all who truly believe in Him and love His word. He says, regarding the things of the earth, the meat and the raiment: your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you. How important and how true this counsel is, can only be determined by God's children who have proven Him herein. That the Latter-day Saints have a living faith in these words of the blessed Redeemer, we shall show later on.
