Presidt Young spoke 44 Minuts. ... The Blessings of Life & health is in keeping the word of wisdom. Tea Coffee whiskey & tobacco prepares the system for all deseases that Come along. Those who say they Cannot keep the word of wisdom it shows they Cannot. Those who say they Can such Can keep the word of wisdom. The word of wisdom if Carried out would add to the lives of the rising generation 20 to 30 years. How glorious it would be to talk with an intelligent Man 100 years old. I say to my family & to my sisters if they would give up their tea & Coffee, they would be much better off...

    That is why the Antediluvian Patriarchs lived extremely long. They ate no meat, (butter, cheese, animal milk, also) from birth.

    This condition will come again upon the earth in the 1st 1000 year period of the Peaceful Reign co-regency of the Choice Seer (American Indian Moses) AND Jesus Christ, while men, women and children are still in the flesh and blood state. This is the rock solid unwavering faith and doctrine of The Church of Jesus Christ (WHQ: Monongahela, Pennsylvania), the true succession of the restored gospel.
