From a Child

"And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus." (2 Tim 3:15) In speaking to Timothy about the coming apostasy, Paul reminded Timothy that he had known the scriptures since his youth, and would be protected against false doctrines. 

This year, the 'Come, Follow Me' study has helped our whole family be more involved in the New Testament. We still have quite a ways to go to really integrate the studies in our home, but we have definitely had the opportunity to know more about Christ's life and the other teachings of the New Testament. 

As we end this inaugural year of 'Come, Follow Me' and look ahead to 2020's Book of Mormon study, I hope we can see the ways that this year's study has "made [us] wise unto salvation[.]" That we can see how it has helped our "faith which is in Christ Jesus." And finally, that we know and continue to have faith that, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness." (2 Tim 3:16)
