D&C 81-83 - Bound to God


Listen Later

Have you ever felt called to serve, wondered about true forgiveness, or questioned how God provides for His people? This video unlocks divine principles from Doctrine & Covenants Sections 81-83!

Summary: In this comprehensive lesson, we delve into three powerful revelations that lay foundational principles for God's organized kingdom.

First, in D&C 81, we explore the sacred calling of a counselor, using the example of Frederick G. Williams. Learn that being a counselor is a divine assignment to listen, give your best advice, and faithfully support chosen leadership. It's a unique blend of leading through counsel and following with diligence, a testament to God's acknowledgment of humble service.

Next, D&C 82 unveils profound truths about forgiveness and the Lord's Storehouse. Discover that God, who forgives our sins, also expects us to "refrain from sin" to prevent past transgressions from returning. We then examine the principle of "much is given, much is required", leading into the radical concept of the Lord's Storehouse—a divine economic system designed to eliminate poverty and promote equality among God's people. This isn't just about material goods, but a consecration of all our gifts and talents for the common good. Through this covenant, God declares, "I, the Lord, am bound when ye do what I say".

Finally, D&C 83 addresses the compassionate care for vulnerable members of society—women, children, widows, and orphans. This revelation emphasizes the Church's and individual responsibility to provide for the needy, ensuring that no one is left destitute within God's expanding Zion.

This video offers practical guidance on living a consecrated life, extending forgiveness, building unity, and actively participating in God's ongoing work to care for all His children and establish Zion.
