SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Daniel 3:17-18 "If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up." ARCHIVE |
QUOTE OF THE DAY Howard W. Hunter "A successful life, the good life, the righteous Christian life requires something more than a contribution, though every contribution is valuable. Ultimately it requires commitment-whole-souled, deeply held, eternally cherished commitment to the principles we know to be true in the commandments God has given. . . . If we will be true and faithful to our principles, committed to a life of honesty and integrity, then no king or contest or fiery furnace will be able to compromise us" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Howard W. Hunter, p. 246). ARCHIVE |
ARTICLE: "O Man, Remember, and Perish Not" (Mosiah 4:30) King Benjamin asks us to come to a knowledge of the goodness of God---of his power, wisdom, patience, long suffering, and love--and a knowledge of "the atonement which has been prepared from the foundation of the world" (Mosiah 4:6). This knowledge then requires of us to "trust in the Lord" and be "diligent in keeping his commandments" in faith unto the end of our lives. Click Here! |
