"I Will Be Honest"

Song:
"Choose the Right Way," Children's Songbook, p. 160.

Gospel Standard:
I will be honest with Heavenly Father, others, and myself. (Faith in God guidebooks, backcover)

Quote:

"A man must be honest with himself and with every person with whom he comes in contact. What a great change would come over the world if we could all rely upon others as far as honesty is concerned."

(Teachings of Howard W. Hunter)

Lesson:

Shortly after the Revelation recorded in Doctrine and Covenants section 50 had been received, the Saints from Colesville, N.Y., began to arrive in Ohio. They had been directed to gather in that locality and they had been promised that there they would receive The Law. The Saints in Ohio had been instructed to divide their land with the brethren, and it was the duty of Edward Partridge, who had been appointed Bishop, to take care of the newcomers, as far as possible. Under the circumstances, Bishop Partridge asked for divine guidance. The Prophet inquired of the Lord for him, and received Section 51 as the answer to his prayers.

Have your family turn to D&C 51:9 and see how every man is supposed to "deal" with others. (Honestly.)

(Dennis H. Leavitt and Richard O. Christensen, Scripture Study for Latter- day Saint Families: The Doctrine and Covenants, [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book, 2004], p. 108.)

The Price We Paid - Save 10%

The story of the Willie and Martin handcart pioneers is among the most compelling in the history of America's western migration. Though tragic, it is also a story of triumph that scarcely has an equal. It is one of history's great witnesses of the power of faith and sacrifice.
