The Lord commanded the early Saints to go to the Ohio “because of the enemy”. Twice in this chapter he refers to that enemy being in “secret chambers”. I have a couple thoughts on who that enemy might be...and it’s not who you think. 🤔
When Jesus Christ reminds us that he is “the same” who did great things in the past, he means business. He can most definitely do it; we just need to have faith that he can.
Ah, the mission to the Lamanites...that didn’t baptize any Lamanites. But it did give Parley Pratt a chance to catch up with an old friend. Great story!
As these early missionaries went out, they had all kinds of crazy experiences - some perilous, some humorous. Whatever the experience, they let God prevail!
That stone wasn’t rolled away so Jesus could get out—it was so we could go in. He still removes obstacles so we can see clearly. 🙌🪨👣 #T
Peace isn’t always the absence of chaos—it’s the presence of Christ in the chaos. That promise still holds. Especially this week. 🕊️✝️
Did you know Jesus made an Easter cameo in Kirtland? 1800 years after the Resurrection. He still shows up—and not just in scripture. 🙏🏛️ #
Sometimes Easter feels a little too perfect. But it’s actually all about broken people finding hope. That’s what makes it such good news. 💔➡️💛 #
I love that Jesus said even rocks would praise Him if people didn’t. That’s Holy Week boldness right there. So if a rock can testify… maybe we can too.
These early missionaries mentioned in D&C 30-36 set a foundation for many eventually joining the church. I will always have a special place in my heart for one of them (see …D&C 32) because I am doing what I am doing today partly because of his desire to serve.
