SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY
2 Nephi 3:12

"Wherefore, the fruit of thy loins shall write; and the fruit of the loins of Judah shall write; and that which shall be written by the fruit of thy loins, and also that which shall be written by the fruit of the loins of Judah, shall grow together, unto the confounding of false doctrines and laying down of contentions, and establishing peace among the fruit of thy loins, and bringing them to the knowledge of their fathers in the latter days, and also to the knowledge of my covenants, saith the Lord."

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Joseph Fielding Smith

"This new volume of scripture was to be a witness, not only for Christ and to contain the everlasting Gospel, but was also to be a witness for the Jewish scriptures---the Bible; and these two records . . . were to grow together bearing testimony of the everlasting gospel. As such a witness these records stand today testifying of the truth to the condemnation of all who reject their teachings" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Fielding Smith, p. 130).

ARTICLE: "That They May Know the Covenants of the Lord"

We are a covenant people.  The Book of Mormon reminds us of our covenants.  The Lord works with His people and encourages us to a better life, through covenants.  Covenants, and their associated promises, teaches an imperfect natural man the possibilities and realities of eternity.  They help us desire and realize our full potential as children of God.
TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY
July 30

1844 - Samuel Smith, brother of the Prophet Joseph Smith, dies of "bilious Fever" just over a month after the martyrdom of his brothers Hyrum and Joseph.  Often called the third martyr because the sickness attacked him after being chased by the mob outside of Carthage on the day his brothers were killed. He is buried in the Smith Family Cemetery near his brothers in Nauvoo, Illinois.
