August 5th

hey everyone how are you doing??!!!

this week was pretty fun. lots of hard work that went into the week. some of the things that we were able to do this week was helping a family move into the island that we cover, umm we knocked doors for 5 hrs straight that was some fun time there! we starting singing "missionaries sang and they knocked and knocked knocked and knocked!" haha good ol' times haha
  but something that i learned this week was in my studies of the book of Mormon. Elder Rigby pointed it out to me about how in the being they are being taught the law of Christ not the law of Moses. which is very interesting to some points. about how int he old testament we learn of the law of Moses and how it is very strict to the people. and that here in America Nephi, Jacob, king Benjamin, Alma, Lehi, they all taught about this most wonderful maned named Christ will come. that he will save us all and that its through him we will be saved! so then they also taught the higher law and how to live the doctrine that Christ will soon teach. 

there are lots of evidences of this all in 1nephi 2 Nephi Jacob and Mosiah!  the ones that i really liked to point out is 2nephi 31 and Mosiah 2-5 (king Benjamin address). so in these they teach all about faith repentance baptism Holy Ghost and enduring till the end. which is the doctrine of Christ and how it pertains to what he taught. and that is my awesome little nugget of knowledge that i learned this past week!! 

love you all
