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

Abrahm Facsimiles

 As I read and pondered David J. Ridges explanations of the facsimiles in the Book of Abraham, I kept thinking how much of this is taught in the temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  President Brigham Young taught - 

"Your [temple] endowment is, to receive all those ordinances in the house of the Lord, which are necessary for you, after you have departed this life, to enable you to walk back to the presence of the Father, passing the angels who stand as sentinels" (Discourses of Brigham Young, 416)” (Pearl of Great Price Student Manual, p. 40).
