“Watchman, Warn the Wicked”
Elder Ezra Taft Benson
Of the Council of the Twelve
Like watchmen, leaders must warn without fear, standing for the moral and spiritual principles that preserve freedom.
“Appeasement is not the answer.”
“Freedom can be killed by neglect”
“America is great because she is good”
“There is great safety in a nation on its knees.”
“No compromise with error.”
Scriptures
Ezek. 3:17–19; 2 Ne. 28:20–21; D&C 1:38
