. . . to stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things, and in all places that ye may be in, even until death, that ye may be redeemed of God, and be numbered with those of the first resurrection, that ye may have eternal life.

— Mosiah 18:9

"Each day we personally make many decisions that show where our support will go," said President Ezra Taft Benson while speaking to youth in Southern California after he became president of the Church.

"The final outcome is certain — the forces of righteousness will finally win. What remains to be seen is where each of us personally, now and in the future, will stand in this fight — and how tall we will stand. Will we be true to our last-days, foreordained mission?"
