Today's Favorite Verse: Alma 21:22
"And he also declared unto them that they might have the liberty of worshiping the Lord their God according to their desires, in whatsoever place they were in, if it were in the land which was under the reign of king Lamoni."
I pondered on how the freedom of religion only comes when you allow people to worship according to their desires. You cannot force everyone to believe the same thing, or be of the same religion. That is not the Lord's way. Man must be free to decide. It is that agency to choose that gives a true and honest heart when they come to the Lord and worship Him.
"We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may."
(Article of Faith 1:11)
