. . . God as the father of our spirits in the previous world, & then Adam our Father came down as one of of the 3 that made this world & fell that man in the flesh might be. . . Adam is the Father of my Spirit & also of my body, the body being Bone of the Bone & Flesh of his Flesh. I spoke 45 minutes & Bp. Hess said that he could endorse all that had been said although he did not understand all, yet it made him feel good & like living his religion.
