Today's Favorite Verse: Doctrine & Covenants 22:1, 4
"Behold, I say unto you that all old covenants have I caused to be done away in this thing; and this is a new and an everlasting covenant, even that which was from the beginning.
Wherefore, enter ye in at the gate, as I have commanded, and seek not to counsel your God. Amen."
The chapter header mentions "This revelation was given to the Church in consequence of some who had previously been baptized desiring to unite with the Church without rebaptism." The Lord explains that this is a new and everlasting covenant. This is done as days of old. Meaning this is with priesthood authority from God. The priesthood authority will never again be taken from the earth. It is so telling when He says "seek not to counsel your God." How oft is that a tendency of man? We think we know better.
Day 3611
