2 Nephi 28:17-32
Repent or perish, fall of the Great and Abominable Church, Satan rages in the hearts of men, All is well in Zion says Satan, Satan flatters some, All will be judged, Following Satan leads to endless torment, don't hearken to the precepts of men, build upon the Rock of Christ, those who receive wisdom from God shall receive more, Gentiles shall receive mercy if they repent.
Why is it dangerous to think all is well in Zion?
Alma 26-27:18
26-Alma glories in the Lord-The faithful are strengthened by the Lord and given knowledge-By faith men may bring thousands of souls unto repentance-God has all power and comprehendeth all things.
27-The Lord commands Ammon to lead the people of Anti-Nephi-Lehi to safety-Upon meeting Alma, Ammon's joy exhausts his strength-The Nephites give the the land of Jershon-They are called the people of Ammon.
DC 42:1-10
How can we be more prepared to hearken, hear, and obey the words of the Lord given to us by revelation?

Valiant in the Testimony of Jesus
Elder Quentin L. Cook
"The 76th section of the Doctrine and Covenants makes it clear that being valiant in the testimony of Jesus is the simple, essential test between those who will inherit the blessings of the celestial kingdom and those in the lesser terrestrial kingdom. To be valiant, we need to focus on the power of Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice to overcome death and, through our repentance, to cleanse us from sin, and we need to follow the doctrine of Christ. We also need the light and knowledge of the Savior's life and teachings to guide us on the covenant pathway including the sacred ordinances of the temple. We must be steadfast in Christ, feast upon His word, and endure to the end."
James and I attended the 8:30 session at the Snowflake temple today. We saw Blain C. from our ward and James's friend from high school Vern T.
We look old
El Cupido's for lunch which for me was a carne asada burro and a drink. We made a Walmart stop and then read from "The Seven Tipping Points that Changed the World" on the way home to Vernon.
Lost Dutchman Park in the Superstition Mountains.
James fixed the hall bathroom toilet just in time for our visitors who will arrive tonight.
I made a lunch date with my friend Pam for next Tuesday. I spent several hours cleaning upstairs before Sheri and her family arrive.
Addy is going to go to Mexico with Bryce's family instead of going to see "Beauty and the Beast" next week. Trina is going to use her ticket to the movie.
I found this online today:
The Relief Society is celebrating
175th anniversary this year.
I took a break for dinner and to do one blog post and then it was back upstairs to finish cleaning. It was after 9 p.m. when I finished. The Trezise's will be here around 11. We had 30 elk in our yard and it looks like they are staying all night. James keeps me posted. The elk are still here when the Trezise's arrive. James greets them, but I stay in bed. Rowan is here with them. Fun!
