Matthew 24
Speaking of the last days with all manner of temptations, destructions, and even false teachers (the philosophy of man), the Lord said even -
"...insomuch, that, if possible, they shall deceive the very elect, who are the elect according to the covenant." (Pearl of Great Price | JS-Matthew 1:22)
"According to the covenant", I believe would suggest those that have made sacred covenants are thus elected to promised blessings. To such he did not counsel but commanded -
"...see that ye be not troubled..." (Pearl of Great Price | JS-Matthew 1:23)
We do not become troubled as we head the counsel -
"...whoso treasureth up my word, shall not be deceived..." (Pearl of Great Price | JS-Matthew 1:37)
For -
"...my words shall not pass away, but all shall be fulfilled." (Pearl of Great Price | JS-Matthew 1:35)
Recently, the Church has been issued a new handbook 2 of instructions available to the entire Church. Not only have we been commanded to "treasure" up the scriptures, but I believe we are to "treasure up [His] word" in this handbook of instructions. In doing so, we shall not be deceeived.
