Note 4 — COMPREHENSIVE SALVATION, OR THE GOSPEL TO THE LIVING AND THE DEAD.

It surely will be admitted that the Church will not only be the same in doctrine, ordinances, spirit, gifts and authority, but also in organization and officers. Hence, as in primitive times, it will incorporate apostles, prophets, and other inspired men, who were given to the Church to edify its members until they "all come to a unity of the faith." It may be well to ask how a Church could be the Church of Christ denuded of some of its most conspicuous doctrines, ordinances, spirit, gifts, officers and organization.[4]
