A Book of Mormon Update
Well it was inevitable, I fell behind on my Book of Mormon Hinckley Challenge. If you look a few posts ago there is a chart that updates my progress as it is entered (in case your keeping tabs). But today I got back on the bandwagon and read about 18 pages or so. My page average to finish within the 93 days has now been increased to 7.5 or so from a 5 page average. I ended up finishing 2 Nephi 9 today. To me this chapter is in the top five discourses of scriptural discourse of all time. I challenge you to read it immediately after reading this post! It’s explanation of the plan of salvation, commandments, sin, redemption, consequences of sin, the need for a redeemer, how the Holy One of Israel saved us from a first and second death, the mention of robes of righteousness, the judgement process, the saving of those who die without a knowledge of God’s plan and the explicit warnings against pride, vanity, and relying exclusively on the wisdom of man and riches and the guide to achieving happiness and confidence before our Maker makes this timeless and timely scripture relevant on any day and in any age. Go read it now!
