Join us today as we move into Jacob 4 where we now continue with Jacob's comments into how we can lose things by looking beyond the mark. We consider what this phrase means and how under the surface it can be attributed as a tool of Satan.
Quentin L Cook: Today there is a tendency among some of us to 'look beyond the mark' rather than to maintain a testimony of gospel basics. We do this when we substitute the philosophies of men for gospel truths, engage in gospel extremism, seek heroic gestures at the expense of daily consecration, or elevate rules over doctrine. Avoiding these behaviors will help us avoid the theological blindness and stumbling that Jacob described.
