2 Nephi 28

(August 9, 2014)

                We see in the debate between those who believe in Priesthood authority and those who believe in certain social positions an example of Satan’s tactics.  A hypothetical member of the Ordain Women movement, for example, might see some inequality and begin to rage in her heart and turn away from the Church.  A hypothetical opponent of the Order Women movement, on the other hand, might claim that all is well in Zion, and Zion prospers, and thus be cheated from making the concerted effort to improve Zion.

                We must always remember that the Church is imperfect, but it is still the Church of the Perfect Man.  Thus we can see the problems in the Church with open eyes, while still understanding the importance of Priesthood leaders, following them, working to better build the Kingdom of God on the Earth, and avoiding steadying the ark.
