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 42

 The Lord instructed - 

 "If thou shalt ask, thou shalt receive revelation upon revelation, knowledge upon knowledge, that thou mayest know the mysteries and peaceable things—that which bringeth joy, that which bringeth life eternal.

62 Thou shalt ask, and it shall be revealed unto you in mine own due time where the New Jerusalem shall be built."  (Doctrine and Covenants 42:61–62)

My thoughts this morning seem to be concerning His temples.  Over the years, His temples were used for varying purposes, ie sacrifices.  Today, temples are primarily used for knowledge, mercy, ordinances, covenants, and sealing.  But the temple in the New Jerusalem may be for priesthood administration for the work of the millennium.  Who knows.
