I did liken all scriptures unto us...

O that I were a full-time missionary,
and could have the wish of mine heart,
that I might go forth and speak with
authority from God, and cry repentance
unto all Chile!  Yea, I would declare
unto every soul repentance and the
plan of redemption, that they should
repent and come unto our God, that
there might be no sorrow upon all the
face of the earth.  But behold, my
mission has ended, and I do sin in my
wish; for I ought to be content with the
things which the Lord hath allotted unto
me.  I ought not to harrow up in my
desires the firm decree of a just God,
for I know that he granteth unto men
according to their desire, whether it
be unto death or unto life; yea, I know
that he allotteth unto men, yea, decreeth
unto them decrees which are unalterable,
according to their wills, whether they
be unto salvation or unto destruction.
Yea, and I know that good and evil
have come before all men, and the
gospel has been taught to all my
converts; he that knoweth not good
from evil is blameless; but he that
knoweth good and evil, to him it is
given according to his desires, whether
he desireth good or evil, life or death,
joy or remorse of conscience.

I know that which the Lord hath
commanded me, and I glory in it.  I do
not glory of myself, but I glory in that
which the Lord hath commanded me;
yea, and this is my glory, that perhaps I
still may be an instrument in the hands
of God to bring some soul to repentance;
and this is my joy.  And behold, when I
see many of my brethren truly penitent,
and coming to the Lord their God, then
is my soul filled with joy; then do I
remember what the Lord has done for me,
yea, even that he hath heard my prayer;
yea, then do I remember his merciful arm
which he extended towards me.  And now
may God grant unto these, my brethren,
that they may sit down in the kingdom of
God, that they may go no more out, but
that they may praise him forever.  And may
God grant that it may be done according to
my words, even as I have spoken.  Amen.
