Mormon 7

Mormon chapter 7 is only 9 verses long, but how powerful they are.  They are Mormon's last words to us as he gets closer to the end of his life.  Verses 1-7 teaches us what we need to know, and verses 8-9 teaches us what we need to do.  Read this short chapter today.  It will make a difference how you live your life today.

True Believers in Christ

In 4 Nephi, we read that the people were true believers in Christ.  What does that mean?

- True believers are settled in their views of Christ
- True believers gladly perform their duties in the kingdom
- True believers are humble
- True believers are willing to do what Christ wants
- True believers have a balanced contentment
- True believers truly pray
- True believers have both right conduct and right reasons for that conduct
- True believers rejoice in the success of others
- True believers remember that forgetting is part of the forgiving
- True believers are innocent as to sin, but not naive
- True believers are happy

Today, think about how you measure up to each of these.
