Brother Thomas considers himself very aged and infirm, and you can see that he is, brethren and sisters! What is the cause of it? He left the gospel of salvation. What do you think is the difference between his age and mine? One year and seven months to a day; and he is one year , seven months, and fourteen days older than Brother Heber C. Kimball. ‘Mormonism’ keeps men and women young and handsome; and where they are full of the Spirit of God, there are none of them but will have a glow upon their countenances; and that is what makes you and me young; for the Spirit of God is with us, and within us.
