It’s really too bad that Roman numerals don’t have decimals. :)
As I was wrapping up the last post, I had some thoughts that fit quite nicely in between that post and the next one, which will probably be the last one of this series.
I mentioned in the introductory post to this series that the phrase, “the holy order of God,” is found, in scripture, almost exclusively in Alma. However, the order itself is found all over scripture, if you know what to look for.
Case in point:
6 Wherefore, we search the prophets, and we have many revelations and the spirit of prophecy; and having all these witnesses we obtain a hope, and our faith becometh unshaken, insomuch that we truly can command in the name of Jesus and the very trees obey us, or the mountains, or the waves of the sea.
7 Nevertheless, the Lord God showeth us our weakness that we may know that it is by his grace, and his great condescensions unto the children of men, that we have power to do these things. (Jacob 4)
Do you see “the holy order of God?” In what other passages of scripture can you see the holy order of God (even when certain key words are missing), what can you glean from those passages, and how might what you glean apply to your present and future circumstances?
Good things to think about. :)
