(Isa. 10:22–23)
The Saints have not too much time to save and redeem their dead, and gather together their living relatives, that they may be saved also, before the earth will be smitten, and the consumption decreed falls upon the world.
(Joseph Smith, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, comp. Jospeh Fielding Smith [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1976], 330.)
