"There is little that any of you can do alone. Two or more
are better than one if you will each esteem the other
better than yourself. If any of you consider your plans and
modes of labor perfect, you greatly deceive yourselves.
Counsel together with much prayer and humbleness of mind,
willing to be entreated and advised. This will bring you
where God will be your counselor. . . . p. 303, Para. 3,
[LS15].
"We are not to make the world's manner of dealing ours. We
are to give to the world a nobler example, showing that our
faith is of a high and elevated character. Do unto others
