Sermon by Presiding Patriarch Roy A. Cheville, given on August 4, 1974 at the R.L.D.S. World Conference. He states, "Zion is more than utopia. Listen now. This designation of Zion as our living together in community with God is more than a utopian dream. Zion is more than sitting and dreaming and talking about a glorious day that is to come with a wonderful glow, with fulfillment of our golden wishes. There is urgency that we Saints go beyond utopian dreaming, and wishing, and waiting."

16 minute sermon by Evan A. Fry on Equality Through Agency, given on October 11, 1953. He states, "The basic problem of the world today is the problem of social and economic equality and justice. The races and nations and individuals who have been denied a proper share in the natural resources, the rights, the freedoms, the privileges, the wealth of the world, are stirring in revolt. They see the wealth which other men have amassed; they see others enjoying the rights and privileges of freemen, and they are demanding a share in those good things for themselves....new and deceptive means of exploitation have been seized upon by ruthless, selfish, godless men, who in the name of justice and equality have fastened the fetters of slavery even more tightly upon great masses of the world's population. Wherever Fascism, Naziism, or Communism have gone, the blight of poverty, misery, slavery, and woe have gone with them, eventually leaving the people who sought for freedom and prosperity and justice many times worse off than they were before."

The author states, "READER, before deciding there is no justification for publishing a tract such as the title of this one suggests, will you not pause long enough to ask yourself, Is it possible that 'Errors and inconsistencies' do really exist in the 'dominant church in Utah,' respecting a matter of such vital importance as THE PRESIDENCY? The revelations of God through Joseph the Seer do not ascribe, not even to men of the church, papal infallibility, and invite an affirmative answer to this question; ''Yes; it is possible.' 'But there is a possibility that man may fall from grace and depart from the living God.'-Doc. and Cov. 17:6. Utah edition, section 20. Have the men of the Utah church 'departed from the living God'? Have they 'fallen from grace'?"
