SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Mosiah 2:41 |
|
And moreover, I would desire that ye should consider on the blessed and happy state of those that keep the commandments of God. For behold, they are blessed in all things, both temporal and spiritual; and if they hold out faithful to the end they are received into heaven, that thereby they may dwell with God in a state of never-ending happiness. O remember, remember that these things are true; for the Lord God hath spoken it.

QUOTE OF THE DAY Lorenzo Snow |
“We ought not to wait for opportunities to be pleasant and agreeable always; but we should strive, even if it takes a little sacrifice on our part, to put ourselves in a condition to perform this labor. … We desire anxiously that the brethren and sisters should not neglect this important work. Do you know what will be the main labor during the thousand years of rest [the Millennium]?” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Lorenzo Snow, p. 143).

TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY February 16 |
|
1832 - Joseph Smith and his family were living in the home of John and Elsa Johnson in Hiram, Ohio. While working on the inspired translation the Gospel of John, particularly John 5:20-40, the Prophet Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon receive a vision that comprises Doctrine and Covenants 76. There may have been as many as 12 men in that room with them who saw the glory but not the Vision. In the vision, they see the Savior on the right hand of God, events in the premortal life, and the three degrees of glory. (History of the Church, 1:245-252).

Studies in the Book of Mormon - Chapter 38: Coming unto Christ
The fact that after his resurrection from the dead Jesus came “in like manner” to the Nephites thus establishes a connection between that event and his second coming at the end of the world.
