P1766:5, 159:3.9
In preaching the gospel of the kingdom, you are simply teaching friendship with
God. And this fellowship will appeal alike to men and women in that both will
find that which most truly satisfies their characteristic longings and ideals.
Tell my children that I am not only tender of their feelings and patient with
their frailties, but that I am also ruthless with sin and intolerant of iniquity.
I am indeed meek and humble in the presence of my Father, but I am equally and
relentlessly inexorable where there is deliberate evildoing
and sinful rebellion against the will of my Father in heaven.
