Alma 11, Zeezrom asks Amulek, "Will ye answer the question which I shall put unto you?"
Amulek: "Yea, if it be according to the Spirt of the Lord, which is in me; for I shall say nothing which is contrary to the Spirit of the Lord".
(Right there if I was ZeeZrom I wouldn't have even asked him the question knowing that but he continues.
Zeezrom: he doesn't really ask him a question either he says, "Behold, here is six onties of silver, and all these will I give thee if thou wilt deny the existence of a Supreme Being."
I think this conversation is so funny, and also very pointless because Zeezrom didn't even listen to Amulek in the first place and realize that He wouldn't deny God.

I find it interesting that despite all the warnings God has given His people, there are still so many that choose to live their lives in sin. They choose every day to do drugs, or lie and steal and go aginst all that is right.
This is why it is so important to be doing all that we have been asked by our church leaders to do.
- Do you know what they asked us to do or work on in the last general conference?
- Are you working on it?
- How can you improve?

Blessing- I'm able to feel the peace from reading the scriptures every single day.

Heber J. Grant said "I have heard men and women say that they were going to let their sons and daughters grow to maturity before they sought to teach them the principles of the gospel, that they were not going to cram the gospel down them in their childhood, before they were able to comprehend it. When I hear men and women say this, I think they are lacking faith in the principles of the gospel and do not comprehend it as they should. The Lord has said it is our duty to teach our children in their youth, and I prefer to take His word for it rather than the words of those who are not obeying His commandments.. I may know that the gospel is true, and so may my wife; but I want to tell you that your children will not know that the gospel is true, unless they study it and gain a testimony for themselves. Parents are deceiving themselves in imagining that their children will be born with a knowledge of the gospel." (Richard O. Cowan, The Church in the Twentieth Century, p. 319)*...

Gordon B. Hinckley said, "We all do a lot of studying, but most of us don't do much meditation. We don't take time to think. I'd like to suggest that next fast day . . . everybody in this hall set aside an hour or two. Sit by yourself. Go in the bedroom and lock the door. Go out in the yard under a tree. Go in your study if you have one and shut the door, and think about yourself and your worthiness. Read from this great book [Book of Mormon]...There's a great word that's used, 'ponder.' "'Ponder.' What do we mean by 'ponder'? Well, I think it simply means kind of quietly thinking things through. Ponder what you have read. Ponder your life. Are you worthy, are you living the commandments...?" (Church News, 01/06/96) -Christ commanded them to; 1. " ponder upon the things which I have said, 2. ask the Father, in my name, that ye many understand, 3. prepare your minds for the morrow ," (3 Nephi 17:3) -The thing...
