NEW TESTAMENT


2nd Corinthians 1

The Lord may call upon us to bear afflictions and tribulations so that we may become as he desires us to be.
When Titus came and reported to Paul of the people of Corinth, this prompted, as well as Pauls' anxiety for the Corinth church, Paul to write a second letter. 
Paul wrote at least 3 letters to the Corinthians.  We lost the first and have the other 2 which are 1st and 2nd Corinthians.

'Counsel to Youth' by Pres. Boyd K Packer

Satan is determined to disrupt our Heavenly Father's plan and seeks to control the minds and actions of all.
Gender is an essential characteristic and was established in that premortal existence.
All beings who have bodies have power over those who don't.
The voice of the Spirit comes as a feeling rather than a sound..........listen for that voice that is felt rather than heard.
The gift of the Holy Ghost, if you consent, will guide and protect you and even correct your actions.  It is a spiritual voice that comes into the mind as a thought or feeling put into your heart.
The outcome of the 'battle' that began in the premortal life is not in question.  Lucifer will loose.
'Trust in the Lord with all thy heart and lean not unto thine own understanding.'
Proverbs 3:5
I love this verse.  It spoke to me today.

NEW TESTAMENT

Manual Chapter 33

Those cast out are sons of perdition.  They chose evil by choice after having had the light.  While dwelling in the presence of God they knowingly entered into their rebellion.
Satan has power to produce false signs and wonders.
Satan has power over the elements.
Those spirits who followed Satan have these same capacities in lesser degrees.
The power of the devil is limited and the power of God is unlimited.
'If ye are prepared ye shall not fear' D&C 38:30
Great hailstorm D&C 29:16
Overflowing scourge D&C 45

How do we prepare?  Keep the commandments.
Look to the prophets for their words.
We need a years supply of food.  Grow a garden and have fruit trees.
