Scripture Blog

This weblog is my personal online scripture journal. I try to read the scriptures each morning as I exercise on my cross-trainer. It has a great impact on my life and my testimony of the Savior and his restored church. The journal is really for my own benefit but I have set it up as a web log in hopes to benefit anyone else that may be interested. "For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy Ghost..." 1 Nephi 10:19

D&C 17

After instructing Oliver Cowdery, David Whitmer, and Martin Harris to testify according to His instructions concerning being the witnesses promised in the Book of Mormon, He promises -

"And if you do these last commandments of mine, which I have given you, the gates of hell shall not prevail against you; for my grace is sufficient for you, and you shall be lifted up at the last day."  (Doctrine and Covenants 17:8)

My thoughts this morning is they did do "these last commandments" and never denied them.
