"Tithing
matters have been touched by our President, and incidentally by two or
three other speakers. We have recently had a tithing settlement, and
the tithes of the Church have materially increased. Crops in most
districts have been bountiful, and some of our brethren have been
blessed with larger incomes, as a result of the high prices obtaining
for certain products. The Lord has blessed this land, and he has done
so because it is occupied by his people. As we pay our tithes and
offerings gladly and willingly, as a part of our service to the Lord,
so will he bless this land. What was once a barren waste is now a
marvel to those who travel through this country." - John Wells,
"Conference Report," April 1926, Afternoon Session, p.120

What an inspiration
and strength it gives to know there is someone who is so interested in
us that if we will take upon us his name and keep his commandments,
he, in turn, promises that his spirit shall abide with us. In the many
trials and temptations of life, what a source of comfort this promise
gives. When partaken of often and in the proper spirit, it is a
safeguard against evil, and we shall develop an intimate fellowship
with God and with one another. It will give us a richness of spirit,
and it will uplift, ennoble and develop an active, living faith within
us. - John Wells, Conference Report, October 1936, Afternoon
Meeting, p.47
