2 Nephi 20-22

(August 4, 2014)

                The idea of the Assyrian and Babylonian captivities being a symbol of our own captivities behind enemy lines on a fallen world (prisoners of war from the War in Heaven) makes everything that Isaiah says have so much more meaning.  The promise of freeing the captives and restoring them to their inheritance conveys a profound sense of hope for the future.  No matter how immersed in sin we may become, and how many chains the Adversary has placed upon us, the Lord’s Grace is sufficient to redeem us, to free us, and to restore us to our place in His Kingdom.
