‘But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.’ 1 John 2:11
Church News, One In Christ, April 2023 “At the end of the Last Supper, Jesus Christ offered a sacred Intercessory Prayer, “Holy Father, keep through thine own name [mine apostles] whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are” (John 17:11). He then expanded it to include all believers.
“Where God prevails in all hearts and minds, the people are described as ‘in one, the children of Christ, and heirs to the kingdom of God’ ” (4 Nephi 1:17).
Paul offers a key to how unity can be achieved in a contentious world: “For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. … for ye are all one in Christ” (Galatians 3:27–28). It’s an effort that starts individually. “Becoming one in Christ happens one by one — we each begin with ourselves.” Putting on Christ includes “making His ‘first and great commandment,’ our first and greatest commitment” to love God.” — D. Todd Christofferson (more…)

“This peace is a gift promised to all who turn their hearts to the Savior and live righteously… We cannot carry such a corrosive burden that destroys feelings, relationships and even lives…
Latter-day Saints should consider ways to be uplifting, supporting, understanding and forgiving, as well as look for the good in others. “I promise you that as we pursue and develop these attributes, we will become more and more cordial and sensitive to the needs of our fellow beings and will experience joy, peace and spiritual growth.” — Ulisses Soares (more…)

General Conference, ‘Accessing God’s Power through Covenants,’ April 2023 “As you walk the covenant path, from baptism to the temple and throughout life, I promise you power to go against the natural worldly flow — power to learn, power to repent and be sanctified, and power to find hope, comfort and even joy as you face life’s challenges.
I promise you and your family protection against the influence of the adversary, especially when you make the temple a major focus in your life.” By coming to Christ and connecting to Him and Heavenly Father by covenant, something seemingly unnatural happens. “You are transformed and become perfected in Jesus Christ. You become a covenant child of God and an inheritor in His kingdom.” — Dale G. Renlund (more…)

In addition, the Prophet Joseph and a few choice associates had been unjustly imprisoned in Liberty Jail.
