Advancement to the Pearl of Great Price!

Since recently returning from my mission, I have seen the big difference of technology, and how it has grown. Many people focus on the evils that come from this. Pornography just a click away, cyber bullying, and many other things. But with this technology before us we have a great opportunity and duty to use it for good.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints has been encouraging us as members to do all we can to share the gospel, and the joy it brings into our lives. With this technology it makes it so easy to share our testimonies of the many tender mercies of the Lord Jesus Christ. Through many resources, like facebook, instagram, twitter, and much more, instead of danger a click away, we have the opportunity to share our knowledge and love of the Savior with just the click of a button. This is amazing, this is the day that Isaiah, Peter, Paul, John, Moses, Adam and many of the ancient prophets, they saw the amazing world we live in, and have asked us to "not be ashamed" of the truth which we have. The Pearl of Great Price, what are we willing to do or give up for this Pearl?

5 Way to Show Our Love for God

"Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like, unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets." All Christians have heard these verse of scriptures, but how many actually follow these two commandments? We should all know that Christ has said that "If ye love me, keep my commandments." So we should know how to follow the first great commandment, but how do we follow the second one? How do we love our neighbor? How do we love our neighbor when our neighbor doesn't love us? How do we love our neighbor when they believe in something we don't? I say in order for us to love our neighbor we must learn how to follow the second part of the second greatest commandment. Let's look at it another time, "Tho...

A Bible, a Bible, we have no need for a Bible!

This day in age I hear about many people who say that we don't need to read or follow the teachings in the Bible anymore. These writings are old and dusty, and what benefit can we get from it? But I know that if we take the time to read and study this great book, we will gain a greater knowledge of what is required of us in this life, the joy of eternal life, and will be prepared for things which are to come. There are three main religions which take root from the Bible. Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. These three religions cover more then half of the world's population. If the Bible influences more then half of all people, shouldn't we use it more? Here is a list of benefits of reading/studying the Bible: 1. The testimony of the existence of God. 2. The history of the beginnings of mankind as a divine race placed on the earth for eternal, divine purposes. 3. The importance of establishing a covenant relationship with God. 4. The history an...

13 Reasons Why Not

Life is meant to be lived. Don't cut your life short, no matter what. You were born to live and to love. I don't know the entire story line of the latest show on Netflix called "13 Reasons Why," but I want to show you 13 reasons why you are important, why you should live and why God loves you. I really enjoy the interaction Moses has with God in the Book of Moses. This interaction really helps us understand who we are, and what we mean to God. "Behold, thou art my son." Five simple words, but these five words tell us who we are. We are children of a loving Heavenly Father, He knows us, He has and is raising us. If you go on and finish reading the chapter you'll see just how amazing that is for you. The fact that we are children of God also lets us know we are children, children who make mistakes and at times feel down about ourselves. We are all miracles, and if you don't believe that, you should read this amazing talk given by President Russe...
