This is such an awesome revelation. It begins by telling us that continuing revelation is key in knowing the mysteries of God and that we shouldn't suppose that the full truths of God are within the Bible, which is why we believe in it, "as far as it was traslated correctly." Good to know and important for the the upcoming revelation.
Then two men, after pondering, see the Lord himself! It seems that they were overwhelmed with the occurance and the feeling. So much so, that they immediately bore testimony of His existence and the reality of his power.
Then who do we learn about next? Satan. First, know your Savior and then know your enemy.
Tonight I read about Korihor to the boys. They asked a lot of questions after the reading tonight. They wanted to know why the devil would appear to Korihor in the form of an angel and how would Korihor know the difference between a satan angel and a Heavenly Father angel. We talked about the feelings of the spirit and the things such and angel would communicate. We know from the scriptures that there is a God and a Savior, which is the whole point of having scriptures. Korihor's angel told him to tell the people there was no God, or they were worshipping the wrong God. I asked the boys if that was right. They said no, of course there is a God. We talked about how important it was to read the scriptures and learn about truth so that when we are faced with choosing right from wrong, we will already know what is right and if per chance there was an angel telling them there was no God, they would know the angel is wrong.
Know your Savior and the truths He teaches via the spirit and you will have a better idea of counterfeit doctrine.
