Mormon History, Dec 6, 1847 (Morning)

[Brigham Young Sermon] We have power to beget children with flesh bones and blood - When bodies are celestialized our power is increased - why not get spirit without bodies '- Spirits are susceptible of spirit as body with body - we will have powers to beget spirits - and tell them to take tabernacles - then you put in the inclination into man and woman to beget bodies - God is the father of our spirits yet not the father of our bodies - We shall beget spirits and send these spirits into the world. -- Kanesville, Iowa [Thomas Bullock Minutes, LJA; Thomas Bullock—LDS Church Reporter, 1844-56.C, Archives, Church History Library, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Salt Lake City, Utah.; GCM, Archives, Church History Library, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Salt Lake City, Utah..; Leonard J.
