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

Moses 2

 Even though the creation was overseen by Jehovah or the Savior, it appears that when it came to placing man on the earth, God, the Father was firsthand involved where we read - 

"...I, God, said unto mine Only Begotten, which was with me from the beginning: Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and it was so...."  (Moses 2:26)

It also seems to me that the Lord referred to both Adam and Eve as man saying - 

"...I, God, created man in mine own image, in the image of mine Only Begotten created I him; male and female created I them."  (Moses 2:27)

Thus the word mankind would refer to both men and women.
