Another good lesson from Jennie that brought the best comments from the class. It is such a great concept that reminds me of the term 'Sunday School' actually having to do with education of the best sort.
As we all know, the study of Isaiah is at times difficult. Why do we do it...?
There are many others sections of scripture that are better and easier understood. I suppose the best reason to give time and attention to Isaiah is because of what Eric said in class. The Lord himself commanded that we do.
1 And now, behold, I say unto you, that ye ought to asearch these things. Yea, a commandment I give unto you that ye search these things diligently; for great are the words of bIsaiah.*
Some other benefits are stated by fellow class members...
Dave C.: to delight in the covenants
Jennie: to liken the scripture unto ourselves
Jed S: to understand the gathering of the Saints
Mike H: to understand the gathering of Israel
George B: to know the judgements of God
Thomas M: to further understand that we are saved by grace and works, two sides of the same coin.
Thanks to Jennie and our class for this time of learning and growing. We hope you enjoy... :)
*3rd Nephi 23:1
