My inquiry of the Lord......

On 28 August, I inquired God what gift I had. My eyes fixed to D & C 6:10 "Behold thou has a gift and blessed art thou because of thy gift. Remember, it is sacred and cometh from above...."D&C 6:12 "Make not thy gift lnown to the world unto any save be those of thy faith. Trifle not with sacred things." The gift is the spirit of revelation-to receive things divine and the gift to preach the gospel."

D&C 6:13 "If thou will dogood and hold out faithful to the end,thou shall be saved in the kingdom of God, which is the greatest gift of all the gifts of God, for there is no gift greater than the gift of salvation."
Salvation is the greatest gift which includes other gifts. Salvation means deliverance
1. from outward dangers,
2. victory over enemies,
3. remission of sins through the acceptance of Christ and obedience to His laws and eternal exaltation.

Until a man can triumph over death, he is not saved. A knowledge of the Priesthood (and obedience) alone will do this (History of the Church Vol. V p.44)

Jesus is the source of divine revelations as the Word and Redeemer of the world and the light which shines in darkness. The darkness is the state or condition of the world not affected by the light of divine revelation because of ignorance, superstition/tradition and the enemity of men due to the carnal nature of men with their lust, pride and idol worship of money and worldly things and pleasure. The darkness of the world remains unrepentant, unyielding and unpenetrated--and in such condition, the world cannot comprehend the light of revelation.
D&C 6:26 "Verily, verily, I say unto you that these are records which contain much of my gospel, which have been kept back because of the wickeness of the people."

"My word is spirit and life" Christ repeatedly said
Covers mercy to those who believe--- the living and the dead!
Hosanna! Hosanna to Christ! Let's rejoice and sing,
Let's praise with one voice and honor our God, holy King!

The voice said in my dream a few days ago : "The chosen gives".
and two weeks ago remarked: "You are born rich",
