Book of Mormon - Episode 49: A New Arrangement
Manage episode 311535158 series 3138554
Never before when I've read Mosiah 2 did I realize how clearly and concisely King Benjamin teaches the doctrine of the atonement.
As I read it this time, I was blown away at how clearly he teaches that salvation is a free gift and that there is nothing we can do to merit salvation on our own.
I also learned (or rather, re-learned) that our keeping of the commandments has nothing to do with "earning" salvation...that that price was paid long ago.
We can either choose Christ's plan, which says that our best is good enough...even if "our best" is worse today than it was yesterday...or we can choose the plan of justice, which says that no matter how good we do, it will never be good enough...even if it's consistently better tomorrow than it was today.
We also talk about how we can know whether we are in "good standing" with the Lord and His plan.
