Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 86: May 1, 1924 And thou hast made us that we could write but little, because of the awkwardness of our hands. And when I had said this, the Lord spake unto me, saying: Fools mock, but they shall mourn and my grace is sufficient for the meek, that they shall take no advantage of your weakness. This has been exemplified many times in the history of the Church. Where differences of Opinion exist, whether it be in regard to temporal affairs or whether it be in regard to spiritual affairs, or faith in God, by which we hope to attain to eternal life in His presence, there must be some basic law to which we can refer and from which there can be no further appeal, which is the end of controversy; otherwise, I may assert and you may deny, and controversy would never cease. As it applies to our civil affairs, the temporalities and their control, that tribunal is the civil law, the law which we ourselves have made. As it applies to God and His purposes, the law is His written and spoken word. From it there can be no just appeal. So in civil affairs we honor and respect and uphold the civil law, and in things which pertain to the word of the Lord, we adhere to His written word, as it is contained here in the Bible and in the Book of Mormon. The Book of Mormon has been before the world now for nearly one hundred years. No one has ever pointed out an error in principle that is in it. Men may ridicule, they may scoff, but that does not constitute argument, nor evidence. They are the last arguments to which the vanquished always resort - ridicule, abuse, misre presentation and I suppose they will be applied to us.
