June 12 — Christ Centered. Matthew 11:28 “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”

Finding rest in Jesus comes with understanding we are submitting to His authority. If we take self-proclaimed moments of privilege to indulge in thoughts outside of His will, the weary soul will never find the rest Jesus offers.
Anything outside of His will brings us to the sin of self-consciousness. Christ-consciousness ensures we’ve taken His light yoke upon ourselves, and haven’t encumbered ourselves with believing other worldly theologies.
The LDS reference today shows the danger of not resting in Him.

Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p. 264 “Now taking it for granted that the scriptures say what they mean, and mean what they say, we have sufficient grounds to go on and prove from the Bible that the gospel has always been the same…”
Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p. 61 “Not All Revelation Is in the Bible…From what we can draw from the Scriptures relative to the teaching of heaven, we are induced to think that much instruction has been given to man since the beginning which we do not possess now.”

…….and apparently, if the ´saints´ don´t like some of the instructions given of late, the profit gets a new set. I think Hebrews 1:1-3 clears up the ´induced to think´ malarkey.
Wow – great, assessment sister! 🙂
