Today's Favorite Verse: Helaman 15:14
"Therefore I say unto you, it shall be better for them than for you except ye repent."

I was pondering on how those that have not the law. That have not been raised to believe in God are very much like modern day Lamanites. It is because of the false traditions of their fathers that they err. It will be better for them than for us that have the law and do not repent of our sins. For we sin having great knowledge, where those that have no covenants and laws of God to follow will be extended great mercy. For all have the light of Christ given them to know right from wrong, and they will be judged on the knowledge they had.

"Wherefore, he has given a law; and where there is no law given there is no punishment; and where there is no punishment there is no condemnation; and where there is no condemnation the mercies of the Holy One of Israel have claim upon them, because of the atonement; for they are delivered by the power of him.
For the atonement satisfieth the demands of his justice upon all those who have not the law given to them, that they are delivered from that awful monster, death and hell, and the devil, and the lake of fire and brimstone, which is endless torment; and they are restored to that God who gave them breath, which is the Holy One of Israel.
But wo unto him that has the law given, yea, that has all the commandments of God, like unto us, and that transgresseth them, and that wasteth the days of his probation, for awful is his state!"
(2 Nephi 9:25-27)
