“Covenants and Responsibilities” by Dallin H. Oaks
40 Day General Conference Challenge DAY 32
QUOTE ABOUT JESUS CHRIST:
“Hebrews also refers to Jesus as ‘the mediator of the new covenant.’”
–Dallin H. Oaks
SCRIPTURE:
“And he said: Behold it proceedeth out of the mouth of a Jew. And I, Nephi, beheld it; and he said unto me: The book that thou beholdest is a record of the Jews, which contains the covenants of the Lord, which he hath made unto the house of Israel; and it also containeth many of the prophecies of the holy prophets; and it is a record like unto the engravings which are upon the plates of brass, save there are not so many; nevertheless, they contain the covenants of the Lord, which he hath made unto the house of Israel; wherefore, they are of great worth unto the Gentiles.”
-1 Nephi 13:23
INSPIRING QUOTE:
“A covenant is a commitment to fulfill certain responsibilities. Personal commitments are essential to the regulation of our individual lives and to the functioning of society.”
–Dallin H. Oaks
INVITATION TO ACT:
“Persons who have been endowed in a temple are responsible to wear a temple garment, an article of clothing not visible because it is worn beneath outer clothing…we are instructed to wear temple garments continuously… Because covenants do not ‘take a day off,’ to remove one’s garments can be understood as a disclaimer of the covenant responsibilities and blessings to which they relate.”
–Dallin H. Oaks
A PROMISED BLESSING:
“Covenants are inherent in each of the ordinances of salvation and exaltation this restored Church administers. The ordinance of baptism and its associated covenants are requirements for entrance into the celestial kingdom. The ordinances and associated covenants of the temple are requirements for exaltation in the celestial kingdom, which is eternal life, ‘the greatest of all the gifts of God.’”
–Dallin H. Oaks
REFLECTION QUESTION:
- Why are my covenants so important to me?
