The Role of Scripture in Our Conversion to Jesus Christ
Alma 12:9–10
9 And now Alma began to expound these things unto him, saying: It is given unto many to know the mysteries of God; nevertheless they are laid under a strict command that they shall not impart only according to the portion of his word which he doth grant unto the children of men, according to the heed and diligence which they give unto him.
10 And therefore, he that will harden his heart, the same receiveth the lesser portion of the word; and he that will not harden his heart, to him is given the greater portion of the word, until it is given unto him to know the mysteries of God until he know them in full.
Reading the Book of Mormon and offering sincere prayers to our Heavenly Father prepare us to have the Holy Ghost present in our lives. The scriptures point us to Jesus Christ and teach us how to shape our daily lives so we can experience salvation. That is the doctrine of Christ: faith, repentance, baptism, the gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end.
As we have the Holy Ghost as our constant companion, we begin to understand the deeper meaning of simple things. Our understanding increases, and our joy spreads.
I invite you all to look for the connections in the Book of Mormon and build everything upon Jesus Christ. He truly comforts us and is always willing to help us at ALL times. 🩷
