Quote from:
"Jesus the Christ"
By: Elder James E. Talmage
(Page 286 - Collector's Edition)
"The gospel of Jesus Christ, which shall yet regenerate the world,
is to prevail---not by revolutionary assaults upon existing governments,
nor through anarchy and violence---
but by the teaching of individual duty and by the
spread of the spirit of love.
When the love of God shall be given a place in the hearts of mankind,
when men shall unselfishly love their neighbors,
then social systems and governments shall be formed and operated
to the securing of the greatest good to the greatest number.
Until men open their hearts to the reception of the
gospel of Jesus Christ, injustice and oppression, servitude and slavery,
in some form or other, are sure to exist.
Attempts to extirpate social conditions that spring from individual
selfishness cannot be otherwise than futile so long as selfishness
is left to thrive and propagate."
