Vaughn J. Featherstone, Of the Seventy BYU Devotional, September 1985 “We teach a Word of Wisdom that the modern scientists are discovering is an inspired health law. We have family home evening and family prayer. We pay tithes and offerings, and our people prosper. We go to the temple and perform vicarious work for the dead, and we send out our true ambassadors as missionaries to the world. We believe in Christ and we live his commandments, and we do so everlastingly many more things as we serve our Lord. Why then can we not recognize the tactics of the evil one? We should walk in the sun as at noonday. What Satan has done is perpetrated a great lie upon us. To our youth he has lied: ‘You can keep your standards but you do not have to be different. You do not need to violate the Word of Wisdom, but you do not have to make an issue out of the things that do not really matter.’ Our very dress and grooming reflects our inward values. If you will watch and pattern your dress and conduct after the people of real substance, you will not go wrong. Men and women of substance have the inner stability and well-being to follow the conservative, inoffensive dress standards. Remember, there is a time and a season for everything under the heavens.” Transcript – Transcript of Elder Featherstone's remarks. Audio Download (33:07 min / 9.5 MB) Less
