Today's Favorite Verse: Doctrine & Covenants 11:12, 22
"And now, verily, verily, I say unto thee, put your trust in that Spirit which leadeth to do good—yea, to do justly, to walk humbly, to judge righteously; and this is my Spirit.
But now hold your peace; study my word which hath gone forth among the children of men, and also study my word which shall come forth among the children of men, or that which is now translating, yea, until you have obtained all which I shall grant unto the children of men in this generation, and then shall all things be added thereto."

I had a question today and these two verses answered it. I know the course I am on and what the Spirit has told me. I will not go amiss if I continue to study God's words, through scriptures and the prophets, and not books or man's wisdom about the scriptures. To many are trying to wrest the scriptures and make evil sound good. I just need to not listen to them, as tempting as that can be.

"Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous."
(Deuteronomy 16:19)

"As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction."
(2 Peter 3:16)

"Now I need not rehearse the matter; what I have said may suffice. Behold, the scriptures are before you; if ye will wrest them it shall be to your own destruction."
(Alma 13:20)
