SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Joseph Fielding Smith

"The Lord expects us to believe in him, to accept his everlasting gospel, and to live in harmony with his terms and conditions. It is not our province to select and obey those gospel principles which appeal to us and forget the rest. It is not our prerogative to decide that some principles no longer apply to our social and cultural circumstances" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Fielding Smith, p. 234).

BOOK: Studies in the Book of Mormon: Chapter 18:The Father an the Son

To his hearers, Abinadi's words about God being simultaneously the "Father" and the "Son" (Mosiah 15:2) didn't present the anomaly it may to us. Those are technical terms they were familiar with based on the Nephites' and Lamanites' ancient Near Eastern covenant heritage. The word "father" designates an emperor while "son" identifies a vassal king.
