2 Nephi 16 Clean through the ordinance of the sacrament

2 Nephi 16
Isaiah saw the Lord in the temple! He felt “undone.” The Lord understood his feelings and had an angel take a live coal from the altar of incense and touch it to Isaiah’s lips. It didn’t hurt! Isaiah’s feelings of guilt and inadequacy melted away under the fire of the Holy Ghost. In our setting, God sends young angels we call deacons with bread and water to touch to our unclean lips. When we partake we too are made clean through this holy ordinance and faith in the Atonement of Jesus Christ.
