Partake of His Goodness
An Invitation to Read the Book of Mormon
I love the Book of Mormon. ❤️
It is true.
Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon by the gift and power of God.
The Book of Mormon testifies of Christ and it leads souls unto Christ and repentance.
Nephi testified:
And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins. (2 Nephi 25:26)
Like Isaiah, Nephi saw in vision the last days, or the days in which we now live. Nephi saw the rampant evil, chaos, wickedness, iniquity, anger, hatred, envy, greed, and oppression of the poor in the last days. He saw the conspiracies or secret combinations and the works of darkness and the devil, and he testified that the Lord does not work in darkness, but in the light:
He [Jesus Christ] doeth not anything save it be for the benefit of the world; for he loveth the world, even that he layeth down his own life that he may draw all men unto him. Wherefore, he commandeth none that they shall not partake of his salvation.
Behold, doth he cry unto any, saying: Depart from me? Behold, I say unto you, Nay; but he saith: Come unto me all ye ends of the earth, buy milk and honey, without money and without price. (2 Nephi 26:24-25)
Jesus Christ invites each one of us to repent, come unto Him, and partake of His goodness. He doesn’t reject anyone who repents:
Hath he commanded any that they should not partake of his salvation? Behold I say unto you, Nay; but he hath given it free for all men; and he hath commanded his people that they should persuade all men to repentance.
Behold, hath the Lord commanded any that they should not partake of his goodness? Behold I say unto you, Nay; but all men are privileged the one like unto the other, and none are forbidden. (2 Nephi 26:27-28)
I invite you to read the Book of Mormon.
It is true.
I love it. ❤️
