pam Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Mosiah 5Â*1 And now, it came to pass that when king Benjamin had thus spoken to his people, he sent among them, desiring to know of his people if they believed the words which he had spoken unto them.Quote for DiscussionNeal A. Maxwell“So concerned was Benjamin with his major sermon that he sent among the people to see if they really believed in his words (see Mosiah 5:1). Benjamin was much more concerned over connecting with his spiritual constituency than with his political constituency. He was continually concerned about communicating. For example, Benjamin did not want his people to forget the name by which they were called (see Mosiah 5:14). Illustratively, too, he was anxious to complete the covenant with them, yet he concluded it only when he was sure that their hearts had been touched and that they understood clearly what he had taught (see Mosiah 5:6-7). Such is the great teaching style of this remarkable man whose sermon we celebrate.” (John W. Welch, and Stephen D. Ricks, King Benjamin’s Speech: Made Simple, p. 3) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
