The "Religio-science" of this Chicago revelator is based, first upon some precise measurements of the earth which prove that its surface is concave; and second upon some philological discoveries very much resembling puns.
He had served successively as a disciple in the ranks; home missionary; foreign missionary; editor and publisher; Apostle; President of the Board of Apostles; President of all Mormondom, civil and ecclesiastical; successor to the great Joseph by the will of heaven; "prophet," "seer," "revelator."
Describing the same object in chapter 15:2, the Revelator says, "I saw as it were a sea of glass." It was a broad expanse spread out before the throne with a glassy or transparent appearance like crystal. Its signification will be made clear hereafter. In addition to this description of the throne and Deity, our attention is directed to certain objects before and surrounding the throne.
Kimball, the second in authority in the Church, called on the people to adhere to Brigham, as their "prophet, seer, and revelator, priest, governor, and king." The sun set on the first overt act in the rebellion. The fanatics, wending their way back to the city, across the broad plain, in the moonlight, were ready to follow wherever Brigham Young might choose to lead.
The presidents apparently direct the ecclesiastical destinies of their districts, but they are, in fact, supine and servile under the commands of the apostles; and these, in turn, render implicit obedience to the Prophet, Seer and Revelator. No policy ever arises from the people. All direction, all command, comes from the man at the top.
The mission of the Hebrew nation seems to stand accomplished; the conception of one, holy, spiritual God was kept alive in the world until, in "the fulness of time," the mighty Romans subdued and united all lands under one rule, drawing them nearer together by great highroads; the flexible Greek language gave all peoples a common tongue, in which already the Hebrew Scriptures had been familiarized among scholars; the life and teachings of Jesus entered with vital power into the heart and brain of those devoted followers who recognized him as the Christ, the revelator of the universal fatherhood of the One true God; and thenceforward Christianity becomes the great spiritual power of the world.
"But I can't I couldn't Brother Seth, I wish her not to marry him." The Bishop stared blankly at him, his amazement freezing upon his lips, almost, the words he uttered. "Not want her to marry Brother Brigham Young, Prophet, Seer, and Revelator, President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in all the world!" "I must go up and talk to him at once." "You won't talk him out of it.
After describing Babylon under its twofold form, mother and daughters, the Revelator says: "After these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
"Nay," said the worthy Mr. Mather, who did go with us, "it should rather, methinks, call to mind what the Revelator hath said of the Holy City.
Be it known to every northern man who aspires to a seat in Congress, that hereafter it is the destiny of congressional action on this subject, to be a MIGHTY REVELATOR making secret thoughts public property, and proclaiming on the house-tops what is whispered in the ear smiting off masks, and bursting open sepulchres beautiful outwardly, and heaving up to the sun their dead men's bones.
