Ether 2:12

As Americans celebrate Independence Day today, let us also remember that “where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty” (2 Cor. 3:17) and the Prophet Joseph Smith declared that “The whole of North and South America is Zion.”

And that law of the land which is constitutional, supporting that principle of freedom in maintaining rights and privileges, belongs to all mankind, and is justifiable before me. (D&C 98:5)
