Institute - follow God's commandments March 11, 2014

That covenant you make with God is the qualifier, and the promise God gives you is the sanctifier. You qualify for the promise, and he sanctifies your efforts. Christ is the mediator and you can't get to the father without going through Christ. Obedience to the commandments qualifies us. They're God's laws. They're never changing. Gov laws change.

Helamen 15:5, 7 it creates a desire to become better. There's not just a repentance of becoming bad to good, but also from good to better. Do you have traditions that need to be changed? The spirit will guide you. Don't try to work on ALL of your weaknesses at once, take one step at a time.
