The D&C teaches that "all things must be done in order, and by common consent in the church". [11] This applies to adding new scripture. LDS Church president Harold B.

The World English Bible translates the passage as: He said to him, "I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me." The Novum Testamentum Graece text is:

Thus when the Jews swore by the Angels, by the city of Jerusalem, by the temple and the elements, they paid to the creature the honour and worship belonging to God; for it is commanded in the Law that we should not swear but by the Lord our God.

"Veritas vos liberabit" in the 1890 graduation book of Johns Hopkins University "The truth will set you free" (Latin: Vēritās līberābit vōs (biblical) or Vēritās vōs līberābit (common), Greek: ἡ ἀλήθεια ἐλευθερώσει ὑμᾶς, transl. hē alḗtheia eleutherṓsei hūmâs) is a statement found in John 8:32—"And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make ...
