John Taylor: From British convert to OUTLAW PROPHET

In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints we hear a lot about Joseph Smith and Brigham Young, but we don’t hear much about the 3rd president of the Church, John Taylor.

Would you resent these outrages and break the heads of the men engaged in them, and spill their blood? No; avoid them as much as you possibly can—just as you would wolves, or hyenas, or crocodiles, or snakes, or any of these beasts or reptiles.... Get out of their way as much as you can. What! Won’t you submit to the dignity of the law? Well, I would if the law would only be a little more dignified. But when we see the dignity of the ermine bedragged in the mud and mire, and every principle of justice violated, it behooves men to take care of themselves as best they can…. But no breaking of heads, no bloodshed, rendering evil for evil. Let us try to cultivate the spirit of the gospel, and adhere to the principles of truth…. While other men are seeking to trample the Constitution under foot, we will try to maintain it….” Source: “The Life of John Taylor,” by B. H. Roberts, pg. 337. — The subject of John Taylor’s supposed 1886 revelation on the new and everlasting covenant is not addressed in this video, as it really deserves its own episode (and because it wasn’t found until after John’s death).
