"This entire continent is the land of Zion, and the time will come when there will be temples established over every portion of the land, and we will go into these temples and work for our kindred dead night and day, that the work of the Lord may be speedily accomplished, that Jesus may come and present the kingdom to His Father."
Lorenzo Snow, May 8, 1899 Millennial Star, 61:546
"Brethren, is it not strange, and should not we be ashamed of ourselves, that after receiving the words of life, and coming to a knowledge of glory and immortality and eternal lives; instead of pressing forward and preparing ourselves for these blessings, we slacken our pace, close our eyes, and sink into a state of drowsiness? Brethren, most of you hold high and important positions in this kingdom, indeed, but few men have lived on the earth that were placed in so important and responsible situations; the salvation of the present world, also many generations past and generations to come look to you for life, exaltation and happiness."
-- Lorenzo Snow
'When the gospel is preached to the spirits in prison, the success attending that preaching will be far greater than that attending the preaching of our elders in this life. I believe there will be very few indeed of those spirits who will not gladly receive the gospel when it is carried to them. The circumstances there will be a thousand times more favorable.'
