“God is a spirit.” But that does not make him an immaterial being —a being that has no properties in common with matter. The expression “an immaterial being,” is a contradiction in terms. Immateriality is only another name for nothing. It is the negative of all existence. A “spirit” is as much matter as oxygen or hydrogen.

Servant Of God

Baptism is just as essential to salvation, as Faith and Repentance. Without being immersed in water no man can enter into the fullness of Celestial glory: for baptism is instituted for the remission of sins; and if a person does not take the necessary steps to obtain pardon of sins, of course, he cannot be saved in the kingdom of God.

Convince us of our errors of doctrine, if we have any, by reason, by logical arguments, or by the Word of God, and we will be ever grateful for the information, and you will ever have the pleasing reflection that you have been instruments in the hands of God of redeeming your fellow beings from the darkness which you may see enveloping their minds.
