• A man is saved no faster than he gets
  knowledge, for if he does not get knowledge, he
  will brought into captivity by some evil power in
  the other world, as evil spirits will have more
  knowledge, and consequently more power than many
  men who are on the earth. Hence it needs
  revelation to assist us, and give us knowledge of
  the things of God (Teachings of the Prophet
  Joseph Smith, p. 217).

• The grand privilege of every Latter-day Saint.
  . . to have the manifestations of the spirit
  every day of our lives (President Lorenzo Snow,
  CR, April 1899, p. 52).

10

• Every man has the privilege to exercise these
  gifts and these privileges in the conduct of his
  own affairs in bringing up his children in the
  way they should go in the management of his
  business, or whatever he does. It is his right to
  enjoy the spirit of revelation and of inspiration
  to do the right thing, to be wise and prudent,
  just and good, in everything that he does
  (President Harold B. Lee, Stand Ye in Holy Places
  Salt Lake City Deseret Book, 1974, pp. 141-42).

• I will, in the commencement of my remarks, take
  up a subject. . . It is regarding the Spirit of
  the Lord manifesting his will to his children.
  There is no doubt, if a person lives according to
  the revelations given to God's people, he may
  have the Spirit of the Lord to signify to him his
  will, and to guide and to direct him in the
  discharge of his duties, in his temporal as well
  as his spiritual exercises. I am satisfied,
  however, that in this respect, we live far
  beneath our privileges (Discourses of Brigham
  Young, p.32 - p.33).

12

• Now, young people, pay attention! Before I
  say another word about personal revelation, I
  must tell you so that you cannot possibly
  misunderstand There are many spirits which are
  false spirits. There can be counterfeit
  revelations, promptings from the devil,
  temptations! As long as you live, in one way or
  another the adversary will try to lead you
  astray. . .
• The Prophet Joseph Smith said that nothing
  is a greater injury to the children of men than
  to be under the influence of a false spirit when
  they think they have the Spirit of God. . . .
• By trial, and some error, you will learn to
  heed these promptings (Boyd K. Packer, Personal
  Revelation The Gift, The Test, and The Promise,
  Ensign, Nov. 94,p. 59).

Outcome of process 2 Nephi 33

Love is one of the chief characteristics of
Deity, and ought to be manifested by those who
aspire to be the sons of God. A man filled with
the love of God, is not content with blessing his
family alone, but ranges through the whole world,
anxious to bless the whole human race. This has
been your feeling, and caused you to forgo the
pleasures of home, that you might be a blessing
to others, who are candidates for immortality,
but strangers to truth and for so doing, I pray
that heavens choicest blessings may rest upon
you (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p.
175).
