This week's lesson was Chapter 18 from the Gospel Principles manual - "Faith in Jesus Christ." Some highlights:
- Faith=Trust - we can't trust someone we don't know.
- We can gain faith in Christ by learning about Him and His teachings in the scriptures.
- 1 Nephi 8 - The Vision of the Tree of Life
- Some people partook of the fruit, but their faith failed and they fell away. Other people held fast to the iron rod and made it to the Tree and partook of the fruit.
- The Plan of Salvation takes faith to follow every step of the way - from the pre-existence to our mortal lives here on earth and even in the Spirit World.
- Jesus Christ is the center of the Plan of Salvation and we must have faith in Christ to have success in the plan.
- Proverbs 3:5-6 - Trust in the Lord with all thing heart and lean not unto thine own understanding
Thanks to Deanna for a great lesson! Next week is the 5th Sunday with the branch presidency.
