Some Doctrines and Principles
- •
Signs and miracles reward the faithful and proclaim the Savior’s coming (see 3 Nephi 1:4–23).
- Read 3 Nephi 1:4–9.
- •
How can a miracle strengthen someone who is faithful?
I gives hope to the person in knowing that the Lord is mindful of him. - •
Even though many great signs and miracles took place among the people, what reason did the wicked give for persecuting the righteous? Because they did not believe the prophesies of the prophets
- •
Why do signs usually fail to convince the wicked to change?
(See D&C 63:7–11.)
And he that seeketh asigns shall see bsigns, but not untosalvation.8Verily, I say unto you, there are those among you who seeksigns, and there have been such even from the beginning;
9But, behold, faith cometh not by signs, but asigns follow thosethat believe.
10Yea, asigns come by bfaith, not by the will of men, nor as they please, but by the will of God.
11Yea, signs come by faith, unto mighty works, for without afaith no man pleaseth God;
and with whom God is bangry he is not wellpleased; wherefore, unto such he showeth no signs,
only in cwrathunto their dcondemnation.
Read 3 Nephi 1:10–14- •
What did the Savior say He would show the world by coming into the world?
- (See verses 13–14. He would show that He would fulfill all things that the prophets had spoken and all things that He had made known from the foundation of the world.)
- •
How does fulfillment of prophecy strengthen faith?
It helps strengthen my faith in many labels,
1. It helps me understand that the Lord keeps his promises always
2. It helps me understand that my Savior Loves so much that he was willing to come to this
world and die for me.
3. I am grateful for The Prophets of old and modern time, they show me how to live my life
so I can go back to to my heavenly home.
