Book of Mormon [MOSIAH 1-3] Insights

“Filled with Love towards God and All Men”

April 22 - April 28

WEEK 17: SUMMARY

=================

Lesson Summary:

This week, we’ll cover the first three chapters of Mosiah and the first half of King Benjamin’s sermon. His words to his sons and people are centered on service and offer us a powerful glimpse of true leadership. His recounting of the angel’s words will help us recognize the character of the Savior.

Questions to Consider:

1. Mosiah 2:5-6 | Mosiah asked that the people gather in families, each in their own tent. Question: How does this approach mimic home-centered, church-supported learning? Why would this bless Benjamin’s people? How does it bless us?

2. Mosiah 2:36-37 | Benjamin warns that he’s teaching them truth and they’ll be held accountable for the knowledge they receive. He warns not to “withdraw themselves from the Spirit.” Question: Often we talk about the Spirit withdrawing from us. How do we withdraw from it? What does it mean to give the spirit “no place in us”?

3. Mosiah 3:5 | The angel says Christ will come in a tabernacle of clay. Question: How does the word tabernacle/tent help you understand this second estate of mortality? Why clay? How does that word add to our understanding?
