The Savior Could There Do No Mighty Work…He Marvelled at Their Unbelief
The Savior while in mortality drew many people after Him because of the mighty works he did. However, in his home town of Nazareth the scriptures teach something different occurred there:
Satan Desireth to Have You, That He May Sift You as Wheat
The Savior warned His followers about the power and influence of Satan saying:
Satan desireth to have you, that he may sift you as wheat. 3 Nephi 18:18
Seeking the Holy Ghost in Times of Peace, and Trouble
Almost exactly two years ago I wrote my first post on this blog. Since then, I have read hundreds of post and comments from other LDS blogs, and written over a hundred posts myself. My main emphasis has been to write about the Holy Ghost.
As church members we’re taught that acquiring the gift of the Holy Ghost is the most important thing we can do.[1] Some readers might not agree with this statement, saying that coming to Christ is more important. If that is true, how would you answer this question: “How can we come to Christ without the Holy Ghost?”
