"The Need for a Church"
President Dallin H. Oaks
First Counselor in the First Presidency
The scriptures clearly teach the origin and need for a church directed by and with the authority of the Lord, Jesus Christ.
Attributes of Christ
Faith
When you have faith in Christ, you believe in Him as the Son of God, the Only Begotten of the Father in the flesh. You accept Him as your Savior and Redeemer and follow His teachings. You believe that your sins can be forgiven through His Atonement. Faith in Him means that you trust Him and are confident that He loves you.
This quote from the book I read, "Road to Bountiful":
Uncle Loyal:
"You gain more by wanting less."
Scriptures and prayer with James this morning as usual. The new Inklings study is out today. The Temple "Implementing Extraordinary Measures to Strengthen You Foundation": The invitation from President Nelson:
"I plead with you to seek - prayerfully and consistently - to understand temple covenants and ordinances. Spiritual doors will open. You will learn how to part the veil between heaven and earth, how to ask for God's angels to attend you, and how better to receive direction from heaven. Your diligent efforts to do so will reinforce and strengthen your spiritual foundation."
James went to town to get a part to fix the Cat. I ask him to get me a few things. He forgets everything except the Sprite and mail.
Sheri and I watched a Hallmark movie, "One Summer" starring Sam Page and Sarah Drew. We also played a game of Five Crowns in which Sheri beat me soundly.
Cammy can't make biscuits for the Saturday morning breakfast before the service project so I am going to make my 7-up biscuits. The reason Cammy can't make biscuits is because Liana is going elk hunting this weekend.
James and I went to town this afternoon so I could get the rest of the ingredients I need to make 7-up biscuits and a strawberry poke cake.
Max had the Sea Hawks game on this evening. This is the one our boys, Michael, Dallin, Joe, and Alex are attending. I imagine Sarah and Shayna went too. I need to retract and say not Joe. He doesn't like football and stayed at the motel. He didn't want to pay $200 for a ticket. The Sea Hawks played the Rams and I am sorry to say they lost. I could not believe their uniforms. Totally bright lime green everything. I've never seen anything like it. I'm surprised they didn't blind the Rams and win.
Hotdogs, burgers and beans for dinner. After dinner James works on taxes. Max is still watching the game so Sheri and I go in the bedroom and watch a Hallmark movie starring Nikki DeLoach, "Taking the Reins." After Sheri went to bed I walked.
