11. We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the
dictates of our conscience, and allow all men the same privilege; let
them worship how, where or what they may.
{7} 12. We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers and
magistrates, in obeying, honoring and sustaining the law.
13. We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous,
and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the
admonition of Paul "We believe all things, we hope all things," we have
endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there
is anything virtuous, lovely or of good report, or praiseworthy, we
seek after these things.
JOSEPH SMITH.
_"When the Twelve or any other witnesses stand before the
congregations of the earth, and preach by the power and
demonstration of the Spirit of God, and the people are astonished
and confounded at the doctrine and say: 'That man has preached a
powerful discourse, a great sermon,' then let that man, or those
men, take care that they are humble and ascribe the praise and
glory to God and the Lamb; for it is by the power of the Holy
Priesthood and Holy Ghost that they thus speak. What art thou,
O man, but dust? and from whom dost thou receive thy power and
blessings but from God?"_
--_Joseph Smith, The Prophet_.
