I have more to boast of than ever any man had. I am the only man that has ever been able to keep a whole church together since the days of Adam. A large majority of the whole have stood by me. Neither Paul, John, Peter, nor Jesus ever did it. I boast that no man ever did such a work as I. The followers of Jesus ran away from Him; but the Latter-dayï»¿ Saints never ran away from me yet.  You know my daily walk and conversation. I am in the bosom of a virtuous and good people.
