God called his servant living on the earth to stand before his throne. God's servant was given the task of finding one certain young man who had lost his way. He was given the precise words to say to the young man. When the lost young man was found, the Lord's servant spoke the words given to him by God and the lost young man's heart was struck and he repented of his old ways. He who was lost was told he must be baptized by one in authority and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost then continue to keep God's commandments and endure until the end. The young man became the first convert of God's messenger and he converted many others. God summoned his servant yet again to stand before his throne. God praised his servant for his success. The Lord's messenger was then given the task to return again to the earth and take the gospel of Jesus Christ to the far corners of the earth. To baptize all believers, to give all these the gift of the Holy Ghost and to ordain those worthy with the authority to preach the gospel, to baptize, and to give the gift of the Holy Ghost to all those believers who are worthy to receive it and to call all the worthy to be missionaries throughout the world.
