Mosiah 15 - 16

Elders and Sisters today we testify of two things from this reading.

Everyone saved will have chosen to follow a prophet and that following that prophet will, at some point, not be easy. But Christ’s seed are those that follow the prophets and it is a sure thing!

“There is no end to the adversary’s deceptions. Please be prepared. Never take counsel from those who do not believe. Seek guidance from voices you can trust — from prophets, seers and revelators and from the whisperings of the Holy Ghost, who ‘will show unto you all things what ye should do’ (2 Nephi 32:5). Please do the spiritual work to increase your capacity to receive personal revelation.” President Nelson

Mosiah 15:10-12 “…Behold, I say unto you, that when his soul has been made an offering for sin he shall see his seed. And now what say ye? And who shall be his seed?

Behold I say unto you, that whosoever has heard the words of the prophets, yea, all the holy prophets who have prophesied concerning the coming of the Lord—I say unto you, that all those who have hearkened unto their words, and believed that the Lord would redeem his people, and have looked forward to that day for a remission of their sins, I say unto you, that these are his seed, or they are the heirs of the kingdom of God.

For these are they whose sins he has borne; these are they for whom he has died, to redeem them from their transgressions.

Mosiah 15:10–12

Secondly, Jesus Christ is the only way and there is no other name or way back to the loving arms of our Heavenly Father but we have to choose Him by our repentance and obedience.

Mosiah 16:11-13

11 If they be good, to the resurrection of endless life and happiness; and if they be evil, to the resurrection of endless damnation, being delivered up to the devil, who hath subjected them, which is damnation—

12 Having gone according to their own carnal wills and desires; having never called upon the Lord while the arms of mercy were extended towards them; for the arms of mercy were extended towards them, and they would not; they being warned of their iniquities and yet they would not depart from them; and they were commanded to repent and yet they would not repent.

13 And now, ought ye not to tremble and repent of your sins, and remember that only in and through Christ ye can be saved?

Mosiah 16:11–13

Finally, these chapters are anthems to our callings as missionaries! Enjoy being those that publish peace and declare glad tidings! What a privilege to serve the Lord as a missionary! We love you!

Mosiah 15:28 28 And now I say unto you that the time shall come that the salvation of the Lord shall be declared to every nation, kindred, tongue, and people.
