174:0.2 This morning he greeted each of [[the twelve]] with a [[personal]] [[salutation]]. To [[Andrew, the Apostle|Andrew]] he said: " Be not dismayed by the [[events]] just ahead. Keep a firm hold on your brethren and see that they do not find you [[downcast]]. " To [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] he said: " Put not your [[trust]] in the arm of [[flesh]] nor in [[weapons]] of steel. [[Establish]] yourself on the [[spiritual]] [[foundations]] of the [[eternal]] rocks. " To [[James, the Apostle|James]] he said: " Falter not because of outward [[appearances]]. Remain [[firm]] in your [[faith]], and you shall soon know of the [[reality]] of that which you [[believe]]. " To [[John, the Apostle|John]] he said: " Be [[gentle]]; [[love]] even your [[enemies]]; be [[tolerant]]. And [[remember]] that I have [[trusted]] you with many [[things]]. " To [[Nathaniel]] he said: " [[Judge]] not by [[appearances]]; remain [[Steadfast|firm]] in your [[faith]] when all [[appears]] to vanish; be [[true]] to your [[commission]] as an [[ambassador]] of [[the kingdom]]. " To [[Philip, the Apostle|Philip]] he said: " Be unmoved by the [[events]] now impending. Remain unshaken, even when you cannot [[see]] the way. Be [[loyal]] to your [[oath]] of [[consecration]]. " To [[Matthew, the Apostle|Matthew]] he said: " [[Forget]] not the [[mercy]] that [[received]] you into [[the kingdom]]. Let no man cheat you of your [[eternal]] reward. As you have withstood the [[inclinations]] of the [[mortal]] [[nature]], be willing to be [[steadfast]]. " To [[Thomas, the Apostle|Thomas]] he said: " No matter how [[difficult]] it may be, just now you must walk by [[faith]] and not by [[sight]]. [[Doubt]] not that I am able to finish the [[work]] I have begun, and that I shall [[eventually]] see all of my [[faithful]] [[ambassadors]] in [[the kingdom]] beyond. " To the [[Alpheus twins]] he said: " Do not allow the [[things]] which you cannot [[understand]] to crush you. Be [[true]] to the [[affections]] of your [[hearts]] and put not your [[trust]] in either great men or the changing [[attitude]] of [[the people]]. Stand by your brethren. " And to [[Simon Zelotes]] he said: " Simon, you may be crushed by [[disappointment]], but your spirit shall rise above all that may come upon you. What you have failed to [[learn]] from me, [[Spirit of Truth|my spirit]] will teach you. Seek the true [[realities]] of the [[spirit]] and cease to be [[attracted]] by unreal and [[material]] [[shadows]]. " And to [[Judas Iscariot]] he said: " Judas, I have [[loved]] you and have [[prayed]] that you would love your brethren. Be not weary in well doing; and I would [[warn]] you to beware the slippery [[paths]] of [[flattery]] and the [[poison]] darts of [[ridicule]]. "
