My Book of Mormon Testimony

 I wrote this to put in the front of a Book of Mormon for my niece to hand to investigators on her mission.

Congratulations! You have just opened the most important book of your life! This book has been written, and preserved, to come forth in YOUR day. Did you know that you live in a Covenant Land? This record tells of two other civilizations who have lived here and not been allowed to stay because they did not keep the covenant of this land. But THIS time, this land will become the birthplace of the New Jerusalem and the city of Enoch will return to the earth to dwell with the saints here in peace and safety. But before that it will be “cleansed” of all unrighteousness. This book has come to you NOW, so that you can choose to be among those God will miraculously preserve during these last days to usher in the Second Coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Gather your family in to the House of Israel and be partakers of the Covenant Promises God has made to His Covenant people.  Make and keep sacred Covenants in the waters of baptism and in the Holy Temple of the Lord and bind yourself to your loved ones on both sides of the veil. The time is short and you were saved for such a time as this. It is no accident that you have found this book now. Please read it with an open heart. Your Spirit already accepted God’s Plan of Happiness before you were born. Listen to your heart tell you that this is all familiar; that you only need to remember it’s truthfulness. The most important thing you need to know right now is that you are free to choose. You don’t have to know everything. You just have to believe and have faith and God will reveal the truth of all things to you in time. I know this record is the “most correct book on earth and that you can get closer to God by reading this book and abiding by its precepts than any other book.” You have found the Church of Jesus Christ. He needs you and wants you to join him in his victory over Satan. He is going to rule and reign as King of Kings, and Lord of Lords. Hallelujah!

God's Promises to Israel

 These are the promises I'm finding in my study: 1.  2 Nephi 29:  And I will show unto them that fight against my word and against my  d people , who are of the  e house of Israel , that I am God, and that  I  f covenanted  with  g Abraham  that I would remember his  h seed   i forever . As we go into some tough times and persecution, this promise will be very important! God will not forget His people and He's going to show that to those that fight against His word and His people.

Fasting in the Lords way...

In light of our upcoming fast, I thought it would be good to review this talk by Pres. Eyring: "Is Not This The Fast That I Have Chosen?" (after reading it, see if you feel like we should all make an online fast offering donation on Friday as well. I don't know about you, but when I participate in "special fasts", I don't usually think about making a fast donation, even though the simplest part of the fast is that we take the money we would have spent on food and donate it to the poor. After reading this, I think that should be part of every fast. If you agree....share this part of the fast on Friday with your friends and family, to increase the power of our fasting and prayers.) "Since general conference falls on a weekend that would normally include the fast and testimony meeting, I fasted and prayed to know how I should still obey the commandment to care for those in need.  Notice, even though his ward will still have a Fast Sunday the week ...

How will the Secret Combinations be overthrown?

Today I read this in 2 Nephi 11: 4 Behold, my soul delighteth in proving unto my people the truth of the coming of Christ; 6 And my soul delighteth in proving unto my people that save Christ should come all men must perish; 8...that whoso of my people shall see these words may lift up their hearts and rejoice for all men . I thought, wow...I have really been engaged in searching the scriptures and the words of the prophets to try to "prove" that God is going to do a "marvelous work and a wonder" among the children of men in response to this pandemic that will open the door for massive conversion to the gospel. And not so much to "prove" to convince, but to "prove" to build faith. Today, I was beginning the Come Follow Me study for this week, which is about Abinadi testifying before King Noah. When I went to copy the video from YouTube to my blog, it wouldn't go to the actual video, no matter how I searched for it - even copying the URL ex...
