A Prophet at the Speed of Sound



Who was the first prophet to break the sound barrier?


a.      David O’ McKay

b.      Gordon B. Hinckley

c.       Howard W. Hunter

d.      Spencer W. Kimball


Yesterday’s answer:


a.      His right hand


President Young instructed the captains to be fathers to their companies and to manage their affairs by the power and influence of the Priesthood; then they would have power to preserve their lives and the lives of their companies and escape difficulties. The President told them he would not be afraid to pledge his right hand that every man would return, alive, if they would perform their duties faithfully, without murmuring and go in the name of the Lord, be humble and pray every morning and every evening in their tents. A private soldier is as honorable as an officer, if he behaves as well. No one is distinguished as being better flesh and blood than another. Honor the calling of every man in his place. All the officers but three have been in the Temple. Let no man be without his undergarment and always wear a coat and vest; keep neat and clean, teach chastity, gentility an civility; swearing must not be admitted, insult no man; have no contentious conversation with the Missourian, Mexican, or any class of people; do not preach, only where people desire to hear, and then be wise men. Impose not your principles on any people; take your Bibles and Books of Mormon; burn cards if you have any.
