O. B. Huntington’s Testimony of Joseph Smith’s Prophecy

O. B. Huntington reports hearing the Prophet Joseph Smith declare that all rites, ordinances, and laws of the Priesthood from previous dispensations will be finished and perfected in the current dispensation, as well as an account of Joseph Smith teaching that a good act done to a wicked man will be rewarded as surely as one done to a good man, though perhaps not as quickly.

Fuller account of this event (in the witness’s own words):

I heard the Prophet reply to a question that was asked him by some one of a small company of brethren who had gathered into his office, and, as usual, the class of men generally around him were unceasingly calling for information from his boundless treasure-field, and his answer was this: 'Yes, there will; for there was never any rites, ordinances or laws in the Priesthood of any gospel dispensation upon this earth but what will have to be finished and perfected in this the last dispensation of time, the dispensation of all dispensations.' ... Joseph said: 'Yes, he will receive a reward for that good act to a wicked man, as surely as if he did it to a good man, but not as quick.'
