When it was preached

Share of each volume's sermons touching the United Order

The spike is dateable. Brigham Young revived the United Order in 1874 and pressed it through the settlements for two years, and volume 17 — preached in 1875 — gives half its sermons to it. Nothing before or after comes close. The order did not outlast him by long, and the preaching falls away well before he dies.

In their own words

One of the 153, preached by Orson Pratt.

How do I feel, to take it home to myself? I long for the time to come when I can consecrate everything I have got; all the cattle I have; I have got some first-rate cattle, the Lord has prospered them. I want the time to come when I can consecrate every hoof of them; also my books, and the right and title I have to publish my works, also my wearing apparel, and my houses; they are not mine, and not being mine, I have no business with this property, only as the Lord sees fit to let me have it. When I have done this, if the Lord in His mercy will give me one team, five or ten teams, to make use of as His steward, I will endeavor to keep a record of that stewardship, of the losses and the gains of it, and will endeavor to render an account of it in time as well as in eternity, and an account of all things pertaining to it, and of my transactions in regard to it; for unless I am a wise and faithful steward in time, I never expect to inherit all things in eternity.
