Excerpt

The gospel comes both in word and in power. True ministers preach in a godly manner—Converts are the glory and joy of missionaries. Saints are told to perfect their faith, be holy, sanctify themselves, love one another, and be prepared for the Second Coming of Christ and the resurrection of the dead.
