January 12 — Which Master Do You Serve? Jeremiah 23:5-6 “Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth. 6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.”
John 13:13 “Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.”

Everywhere you look nowadays people are screaming for your attention to get the latest, greatest thing you can’t live without. People’s minds are flooded with too much information in the age of information. And so it goes with the LDS Church as well.
Their moniker would have one believe they’re a church who follows Jesus, however, the last of their tagline tells the real story. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints – meaning they’re a church of people. The main motto you’ll hear in many of their talks and lessons is the reminder to follow the prophet. This month’s lessons are no different. You’ll see how they use the name of Christ in their canon 550 years before His birth. This is a major red flag there’s something wrong beloved!
You can’t serve Jesus if you’re serving the Church. Matthew 6:24.

Liahona, ‘Grow into the Principle of Revelation’, January 2021 “How We Hear Him Knowing how the Spirit speaks is essential today. To receive personal revelation, to find answers, and to receive protection and direction, we remember the pattern the Prophet Joseph Smith set for us.
First, we immerse ourselves in the scriptures. Doing so opens our minds and hearts to the Savior’s teachings and truths. The words of Christ “tell [us] all things what [we] should do” (2 Nephi 32:3), especially in these days of uncertainty and upheaval.
2 Nephi 32:3 “Angels speak by the power of the Holy Ghost; wherefore, they speak the words of Christ. Wherefore, I said unto you, feast upon the words of Christ; for behold, the words of Christ will tell you all things what ye should do.”” — Russell Nelson
