The thing that stuck out to me the most was about parents teaching their children.
This is short but it is true.
I think it is so importent that parents teach their kids. To be raised on the knowledge. Knowing from when you are little.
68:25 And again, inasmuch as parents have children in Zion, or in any of her stakes which are organized, that teach them not to understand the doctrine of repentance, faith in Christ the Son of the living God, and of baptism and the gift of the Holy Ghost by the laying on of the hands, when eight years old, the sin be upon the heads of the parents.
26 For this shall be a law unto the inhabitants of Zion, or in any of her stakes which are organized.
27 And their children shall be baptized for the remission of their sins when eight years old, and receive the laying on of the hands.
28 And they shall also teach their children to pray, and to walk uprightly before the Lord.
I am so thankful for the fact that my parents taught me. That I was able to Learn and to grow in the church. I was taugh from a young age that this church was true. I am so happy and thankful for the fact that my dad helped me learn and grow and become the person who I am today.
It is the faith of my father (or was .. but that doesnt matter) and when I was eight I was baptised. I was taught to pray and to be athe daughter of God I am and I will continue to walk uprightly.
I will teach my kids. My husban and I will teach our kids while they are younger and grow up in the church.
That line sticks out, those who do not teach their kids, it is not their kids fault, it is the parents fault and the sin is theres. How horrid would that be for me to be at the judgment seat and being punished because I did not teach my kids.
I know this church is true, and Iwill bear my testimony and teach my kids and hope and pray that they will feel the same way that I do and that my heart and testimony will touch them.
