When “the Holy Ghost falls upon one of the literal seed of Abraham, it is calm and serene; … while the effect of the Holy Ghost upon a Gentile, is to purge out the old blood, and make him actually of the seed of Abraham. That man that has none of the blood of Abraham (naturally) must have a new creation by the Holy Ghost.”
- Joseph Smith, as quoted by Pres. James E. Faust, Second Counselor in the First Presidency, in "Your Patriarchal Blessing," New Era, Nov 2005, p. 7
