“The world is like a courtroom, with God as our judge. We are called upon to fulfill our covenant with God, who asked, "Am I not your Lord?" To which we answered, "Yea."

“To make a covenant with the Lord to always keep His commandments is a serious obligation, and to renew that covenant by partaking of the sacrament is equally serious.

“We often say, and you have heard the expression as it has already been referred to in this conference, that "as man now is, God once was, and as God now is, man may become." The only way man may become as God now is, is through fulfilling the laws of celestial marriage and the laws of the gospel, as I have just read to you the word of the Lord from the D&C. Can we afford to overlook such opportunities for exaltation? Temple marriage is not just another form of church wedding; it is a divine covenant with the Lord that if we are faithful to the end, we may become as God now is.” IfsMenWayMayEndsFormLawOpportunityChurchLordHeardDivineExpressionFaithfulTemplesFulfillingConferencesCovenantCelestialExaltationTemple Marriage Author:Eldred G.

“It is essential that we renew our covenants by partaking of the sacrament. When we do this with a sincere heart, with real intent, forsaking our sins, and renewing our commitment to God, the Lord provides a way whereby sins can be forgiven from week to week.

The spiritual preparation we make to partake of the sacrament is essential to receiving a remission of our sins.” WayHeartRealSpiritualSpiritWaterSinLordWeekBrokenEssentialsEatingCommitmentDrinkingBreadPreparationSincereReceivingForgivenSacramentsCovenantCommitment To GodRemissionSincere Heart Author:Vaughn J Featherstone
