Hanson given at the RLDS World Conference, April 9, 1956 at the Stone Church, Independence, Missouri, at 7:30 p.m. Brother Hanson states, "The Church that we have the honor to represent is very fortunate in having three volumes wonderfully inspired of God; The Bible, The Book of Mormon and the Book of Doctrine and Covenants. The Bible is a treasury of religious truths. It teaches how to live nobly and to die with the bright hope of the hereafter. It leads to revolt against tyranny and proclaims liberty. It teaches the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man and in the new testament do we find writings by four different distinguished ministers of the Church established by Christ giving a record of his ministry on earth. Of his death and his rising triumphant and gloriously from the grave...And I turn to the Book of Mormon, a record of God's dealings with great nations that flourished in pre-Columbian times in America, to the record of three colonies divinely led from Asia, tells of their development into nations here in America; the forces that led to their prosperity and happiness and greatness, and the causes of their deterioration and decline. This record was inscribed on metal plates by the ancient prophets and historians and translated by the young prophet Joseph Smith from metal plates by the gift and power of God."

48 minute sermon by Apostle Charles R. Hield called Co-Laborers with Christ. Brother Hield states, "The Book of Mormon tells us that all people will be resurrected whether they're good or bad, whether they're old or young, whether they're wicked or whether they're sinful, whether they believe in Christ or whether they don't. You get your body back someday. Not that that gives you salvation. Unfortunately sometimes we speak of the resurrection, as synonymous with celestial glory, which it is not! You get your body back and must stand before God to be judged because of your works. But to me this Christ, is a wonderful individual, because he did come to the cross, because our bodies were NOT to be allowed to remain in the earth and rot and never come forth again and our spirits which are endless and eternal were to be handed over to Satan. Christ is the only one who has demonstrated in the world the power to lay his body down and take it up. You don't have that power. That power can only be granted to you by the Lord Jesus Christ and his Father. The Christ said remember he that taketh not his cross and followeth after me is not worthy of me."

Short article about life and the choices we make. The author states, "What we do in life are very largely matters of selection. Our work, our study, our associates, our recreation and amusement, all are matters of selection. Some will say this is not correct. But we are very certain that almost all conditions are the results directly or indirectly of our own choice. Much that is may be brought upon us by our ignorance of conditions or things. Or it may seem that 'circumstances over which we have no control' bring it about. But while we may not be able to control the circumstances, we could prevent them or avoid them, or, once on us, can escape them, if to do so is a matter of our selection. That we must do something is not a matter of our choice. God so elected that we should labor. But what we do or what we study, or what we are is very largely a matter of our own selection."
