How crazy is it that the sons of the most powerful men are the ones who decided to go astray? It shows that no matter who your parents are or how you were raised, you still have agency to choose whether or not to follow.
I love the last part of verse 30 in chapter 27 especially. It says “He remembered every creature of his creating, he will make himself manifest unto all.”
It reminds me that Christ truly does remember each and every one of us.
Chapter 28 verse 3 is pretty cool. “Now they were desirous that salvation should be declared to every creature, for they could not bear that any human soul should perish; yea even the very thoughts that any soul should endure endless torment did cause them to quake and tremble.”
It shows that the sons of Mosiah had compassion for all, especially after what they went through when they encountered the angel with Alma. The next verse says that they were the vilest of sinners. But the Lord still had mercy enough to forgive them and then grant them eternal life. Sometimes I feel like I need to have more compassion and charity towards others. It’s really easy to show and feel that for people I love, but how often do I show it for people I don’t know? To those who are lost, but don’t know they are lost? Good thing my new calling is on the missionary committee right!?
