IN A GENERAL SENSE, WHILE ON OUR MISSION, WE WILL TEACH AND EXPLAIN THE FOLLOWING CONCEPTS TO THOSE WHO MAY BE INTERESTED.  WE CAN TEACH THESE CONCEPTS TO OTHERS BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THEM OURSELVES.   



 Do you want a
CROWN OF EXALTATION IN THE NEXT LIFE?

D&C 25:15 Keep my commandments continually, and a crown of righteousness thou shalt receive. 



Do you want the Savior’s
PEACE IN THIS LIFE AND THE NEXT?






John 16:33   These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.



if you are interested then here are some things you can do: 




READ THE BIBLE AND THE BOOK OF MORMON



and


SAY YOUR PRAYERS REGULARLY



and


FOLLOW THE SAVIOR/APPLY HIS ATONEMENT
in
YOUR LIFE









Mark 2:14 And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphæus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.

D&C 100:2 Therefore, follow me, and listen to the counsel which I shall give unto you.

D&C 19:18-19 Which suffering caused myself, even God, the greatest of all, to tremble because of pain, and to bleed at every pore, and to suffer both body and spirit—and would that I might not drink the bitter cup, and shrink—Nevertheless, glory be to the Father, and I partook and finished my preparations unto the children of men.
and


REPENT and CHANGE YOUR BEHAVIOR and IMPROVE
                                                                            
Matthew 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Moses 5:14 And the Lord God called upon men by the Holy Ghost everywhere and commanded them that they should repent;

and



CONSIDER THE COVENANTS AND ORDINANCES THE SAVIOR HAS PROVIDED











D&C 107:67  From the same comes the administering of ordinances and blessings upon the church, by the laying on of hands.

Luke 1:6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

and


FORGIVE OTHERS




D&C 64:10 I, the Lord, will forgive whom I will forgive, but of you it is required to forgive all men.
3 Nephi 13:14-15  For, if ye forgive men their trespasses your heavenly Father will also forgive you; But if ye forgive not men their trespasses neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

and


PRACTICE CHARITY




2 Nephi 26:30 ...the Lord God hath given a commandment that all men should have charity, which charity is love. And except they should have charity they were nothing. Wherefore, if they should have charity they would not suffer the laborer in Zion to perish.

1 Corinthians 13:4 and 13  Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not, charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,…And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

Moroni 7:47-8  But charity is the pure love of Christ, and it endureth forever; and whoso is found possessed of it at the last day, it shall be well with him. 

and


HAVE MERCY




Alma 32:13 … whosoever repenteth shall find mercy; and he that findeth mercy and endureth to the end the same shall be saved.

1 Nephi 8:8 And after I had traveled for the space of many hours in darkness, I began to pray unto the Lord that he would have mercy on me, according to the multitude of his tender mercies.

and


BE WILLING TO SACRIFICE AS DIRECTED BY THE SAVIOR
AND BY THE HOLY GHOST AND AS THE MOMENT DICTATES TO
HELP OUR FELLOW MEN AND WOMEN
                                     
D&C 138:13 And who had offered sacrifice in the similitude of the great sacrifice of the Son of God, and had suffered tribulation in their Redeemer’s name.

D&C 59:8 Thou shalt offer a sacrifice unto the Lord thy God in righteousness, even that of a broken heart and a contrite spirit.

and seek


GOSPEL and UPLIFTING EXPERIENCES SERVING AND INTERACTING WITH OTHERS




D&C 105:10 That they themselves may be prepared, and that my people may be taught more perfectly, and have experience, and know more perfectly concerning their duty, and the things which I require at their hands.

D&C 122:7  …all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good.

and then

WAIT on the LORD and put your TRUST
IN HIM





JST Matthew 3:24  Jesus grew up with his brethren, and waxed strong, and waited upon the Lord 

Isaiah 40:31   But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

MARRIAGES AND FAMILIES CAN BE TOGETHER FOREVER!
