Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 102: January 11, 1940 Jesus said, if we would have eternal life we must know God. Can one love that which he does not know? By what process do we come to know? Is love affected by knowledge? We are saved no faster than we gain knowledge. Of what? Of God. As we gain knowledge of Him we become like Him and with this growth our capacity for love increases. As we become like Him we achieve salvation, which is, in the very nature of things, a continuing process. Any person's conception of Deity must come within his mental horizon, which is determined by the degree of his intelligence. -man, by his reasoning, naturally endows God with his own noblest and highest ideals, which, if he be studious and devout, are ever growing. Intellectual activity then pro duces an ever-changing, because ever growing, concept of God. Once the mind has grasped the idea of God it will burn and glow, seek to assimilate and radiate, adore and emulate. This love of God by the mind of man when accompanied by the love of heart and soul will light the pathway of salvation, the gates to which may be unlocked by the key of knowledge.
