Albert Carrington in the Journal of Discourses

His one sermon in the series, and what it covers.

Apostle, editor of the Deseret News, and president of the European Mission.

One sermon by Albert Carrington appears in the Journal of Discourses, in volume 17 (1875).

In his own words

The table below says what his one sermon covers. This is what it sounded like.

No, they spurned it, and in every conceivable way derided him who brought it; and, as in the days of the Savior, the Priests, the Pharisees and Sadducees, the lawyers and scribes, the wise in their own estimation and the wealthy all banded together to keep from the children of men the word of God, which is truth, and which is the power of God unto salvation to all who will believe and obey it. Are not these facts? I know they are, though the whole world may gainsay I know that I am telling you the truth, as God lives I know it for myself.

Albert Carrington, Crime a Transgression of Law—Saints Are Under Divine Law—The Gospel a Perfect Law—The Constitution of the United States a Just Instrument—Saints Must Be Patient and Long-suffering—Latter-Day Saints Prepare By Good Works to Meet the Savior, Journal of Discourses, Volume 17

What the sermon covers

Indexed subjects, in order of how often they appear: Religious Liberty, Ohio, Celestial Kingdom, Patience and Long-Suffering, New York, Divine Law, Kingdom of God, Prophet Joseph Smith, Crime and Law, Illinois, Crucifixion, Government of God.

Where it sits

Volume 17 (1875) holds 50 sermons by 13 speakers, of which 1 is his. Orson Pratt carries that volume with 10.

The Journal is overwhelmingly the work of a dozen men. The speakers who appear once or twice are the reason the series is worth indexing in full: they are printed at the same length and with the same care as the presidencies, and almost nowhere else.

Every sermon, in order
