D&C 90:30

 


All truth is independent in that sphere in which God has placed it, to act for itself, as all intelligence also; otherwise there is no existence.

D&C 93:30



You cannot force a man to act


Against himself – and that’s a fact.


Intelligence means that I rule


Myself – for good or as a fool.


I can be swayed and then beguiled


By something selfish, wrong, or wild;


But at the Day of Truth I’ll see


Each blessing God did offer me.


And my existence, full and rich,


Was always more than mundane hitch.
