"God has held you in reserve to make your appearance in the final days before the second coming of the Lord...God has saved for the [final days] some of His strongest children, who will help bear off the kingdom triumphantly. That is where you come in, for you are the generation that must be prepared to meet your God...
"In all ages prophets have looked down through the corridors of time to our day. Billions of the deceased and those yet to be born have their eyes upon us. Make no mistake about it--you are a marked generation. There has never been more expected of the faithful in such a short period of time than there is of us."
-Ezra Taft Benson (The Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson [1988], 104-5)
