1The Book of Mormon has a dilemma. Each of us is part of the solution. Accept the invitation the book extends to overcome the dilemma.
Our Savior answered the ends of the law in order to reclaim us from the demands of justice. We explore what He accomplished in answering the law and what He can then do in our lives.
Our Savior experienced the totality of mortal exisitence and knows each of us perfectly. That allows Him to tailor the mortal experiences we each need.
To claim the blessing and power of the Atonement of Christ, we must have hope. Growth comes line upon line through a process called Grace for Grace.
We now turn to Topic #2: The Book of Mormon Was Written For Our Day. The Book of Mormon warns that one of our greatest challenges in the latter days is avoiding Noah Blindness. The book of Mosiah provides solutions.
Four Anti-Christs in the Book of Mormon teach us how to combat the influence of modern-day Anti-Christs.
The great war in the Book of Mormon is a pattern of the war that began in pre-mortal life. These chapters are our instruction manual to end the spiritual war in our day. Amalickiah is a type of Satan and reveals Lucifer's strategy.
Within the story of the war chapters, there is a smaller story which seems to illustrate the very point these war chapters are trying to proclaim. The preservation of the strippling warriors is a prophecy of the preservation of the righteous in the war against Satan. We must be modern-day strippling warriors.
The coming of Christ in the Book of Mormon is a pattern of His Second Coming in our day. Therefore, the days BEFORE His coming in 3 Nephi are a pattern of the days BEFORE his Second Coming. The Book of Helaman is a guide to succeed in our day.
The Book of Helaman predicts that the wars of our day will be wars of the heart. We cannot use the sword. Only the Gospel of Christ will work.
The prosperity of the Book of Helaman and its subsequent pride are patterns of our day. We must learn the shortcut.
The Devil has a secret, which he tells to those who follow him. They form secret combinations. Modern-day secret combinations are much more advanced. The Book of Helaman teaches how to succeed when we face secret combinations
The Book of Mormon testifies of the role it should play in our lives.
Pitfall #1 is the tendancy to jump right to relationship dating. It is often awkward and uncomfortable. There is a better way: Friendship Dating.
Pitfall #2 is when you do not understand not take full advantage of relationship dating. We are looking for a match; which is the absence of deal-breakers.
Pitfall #3 is when we let our hearts jump to marriage before we know if we are a match.
Pitfall #4 is when you are dating at one level (ie. on a date with a 1), but your focus and purpose is at another level (ie. you're looking for a match).
Pitfall #4 is when you are dating at one level (ie. on a date with a 1), but your focus and purpose is at another level (ie. you're looking for a match). In this class, we look at appropriate dating at levels 4, 5, and 6.
Pitfall #5 is not knowing the difference between 'Being in Love' (the thrill) and love (the choice, the committment).
Pitfall #6 is not considering that perhaps your best partner is someone who sees what you do not.
