It is to be remembered that there are men walking the earth and beckoning us to follow them to the future—not abreast of us, but ahead of us. Religion explains them as men blessed of heaven; men so spiritually endowed as to be able to respond to the inspiration of the infinite, which they know comes from God. They are good men, and wonderful is the vitality of goodness. Men are keeping faith and virtue and are working for the freedom and happiness of the human race. Their discipline is the loyalty of each man’s heart to the voice of God. These men look for authority, for principles, for divine government. They have noble thoughts, beautiful sentiments, worthy aspirations, courageous living for a true and happier life. They know that God has not separated himself from the world nor does he lightly regard anyone’s need. There is a true light which “lighteth every man that cometh into the world” (John 1:9), a saying rich in promise. God reveals his principles of eternal life to good men who have discerning vision and deep faith The world has always had such men; it has such men today. – Levi Edgar Young, “Conference Report,” April 1955, Third Day-Morning Meeting, p. 61
