“Also, the gospel was not carried to this segregated black group … the Negroes tread the earth with black dishonorable bodies as a judgment of God because at the time of decision in the pre-existence they were faint-hearted and exhibited an infirmity of purpose – they were not valiant in the cause of the Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, they were entitled to no better earthly lineage than that of the first early murderer, Cain. They were to be the ‘servant of servants.’ They were to be segregated. No effort was made to carry the gospel to them as a people.”
Elder Arthur M. Richardson, That Ye May Not Be Deceived (Salt Lake City, UT: Arthur M. Richardson, 1955), 9-10.
