John Taylor, The Gospel Kingdom, p.20-21 We have no craven fear of death; we are looking for life eternal, and an association with the Gods in celestial mansions. We are not ashamed of our religion, and we believe God is not ashamed of us. The Mormon, March 31, 1855.

John Taylor, The Gospel Kingdom, p.3 The omnipotent power of eternal truth will stand unscathed in the view of gathering hosts, and the nations will know that God rules in the heavens, that Mormonism is not a vague phantasy and wild chimera, but the greatest boon that could be conferred upon man; the offspring of heaven, the gift of the Gods, a celestial treasure, an earthly, heavenly inheritance, a living, abiding, and eternal reality.

John Taylor, The Gospel Kingdom, p.27 "THE LIVING GOD" PLURALITY OF GODS. It will . . . be necessary to treat the subject of the "Living God," in contra-distinction to a dead God, or, one that has, "no body, parts, or passions," and perhaps it may be well enough to say at the outset that Mormonism embraces a plurality of Gods as the Apostle Paul said, there were "gods many, and lords many," (1 Corinthians 8:5.) in doing which, we shall not deny the scripture that has been set apart for this world, and allows one God; even Jesus Christ, the very eternal Father of this earth; and if Paul tells the truth "by whom also he made the worlds." (Hebrews 1:2.)
Note: John Taylor ripped 1 Corinthians 8:5 out of context!
(1 Corinthians 8:5-6) For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many (false) gods and many (false) lords), yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and through whom we live.
