BOOK OF MORMON


Helaman 6

62nd year the Lamanites became more righteous than the Nephites.
Nephites and Lamanites all hung out together.
v10 Mulek  was the son of Zedekiah who came over from Jerusalem to the North.  Lehi landed in the South.
They became rich.
66th year Cezoram was murdered and his son who took his place was as well.
67th year the  people grew wicked.
Gadianton rebels are florishing.  They were the ones who murdered the chief judges.
Lamanites held true though but the Nephites got more wicked.
Lamanites got rid of the robbers in their lands but the Nephites supported them.
68th year the Gadianton robbers were the rulers of the Nephite government.  That's all a bit sad.


ENSIGN


August 2011 'Solidly Anchored'

We need to be spiritually prepared in the the gospel.  Fear is the opposite of faith.  Do not be afraid.
Do not look for the world for help.
Looking for a higher source for knowledge and power can help us far more than relying on the wisdom of the world.
The New Testament has 27 books and a little more than 400 pages.
We need to be spiritually connected to the right source and have the knowledge and ability to use the power we receive.

OCTOBER CONFERENCE 2011


'Personal Revelation and Testimony' by Barbara Thompson

Way to receive personal revelation is clear.
* Desire to receive.
* Don't harden your heart.
* Ask in faith.
* Truly believe we'll receive the answer.
* Diligently keep the commandments.
I need to do my duties in humility and faith.
The Holy Ghost satisfies and fills up every longing of the human heart and fills up every vacuum.
When I am filled with that Spirit ........... my soul is satisfied.
I need to be praying for faith
We must nourish and strengthen our testimonies in order that it will have sufficient power to sustain us.
