Chapter 29


The Lord has caused his word to be written by whomever he has spoken to.  Therefore, we have the Bible, Book of Mormon, Doctrine & Covenants, Pearl of Great Price, and the words of the living prophets from General Conference and other times when they speak by the power of the Spirit.  There is much scripture yet to be written.  There is also much scripture that has already been written but is yet to come forth, for example, the words the Lord has spoken to the Lost Tribes of Israel.  Reading scriptures fortifies us.  The act of faith involved in opening the scriptures signifies to the Spirit that we want to be taught in much the same way raising our hands in class signals to the teacher we are ready to learn.  The Lord smiles down on us when we read his words.
