John Taylor teaches we are all related to one another, being the offspring of God the Father.

This morning I went to see President Young. I asked him if I was a relation He said i was, or else I was going to prove to him how I was related, but he has saved me that trouble. I and my wife are coming in your midst and I hope I shall never disgrace my family or any of you. When we are all united as the tribe of Ephraim we shall have an invulnerable bulwark that the powers of hell cannot subvert. We can see the order of the Father, taking His place and all being in subjection to Him. And when we trace our descent like the branch of the tree, we shall trace the root of it to our Father in heaven, and we shall find we are related to Gods, and shall find our Union in temporal and spiritual things. We have Fathers—one who is in Heaven and others on earth. When the dispensation is complete, we shall find that it has come to pass that prophecy which says 'all Israel shall be saved.' The best way to go smoothly along. Some persons cannot endure the yoke of the burden. The easiest way is to prove all things—and then hold fast that which is good. We are all embarked on the Gospel ship and bound for the port of eternity and if we go on we will get to our port. I feel that I am going to preach. Uncles, Aunts, Brothers, Sisters, Cousins, and all, God bless you all. Amen!
