New Testament Lesson 19: "Thy Faith Hath Saved Thee"

By Ted L. Gibbons

INTRODUCTION

23: "All Flesh Is in Mine Hand" (Doctrine and Covenants 60–62)

You may not be a world-class beatboxer—or do public math—but chances are, you have a talent. In fact, all members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have a very specific talent. And as we study Doctrine and Covenants 60–62, we are going to find out what that talent is, why it was important to the early Saints, and how we can share it with others today.

27: "No Weapon That Is Formed against You Shall Prosper" (Doctrine and Covenants 71–75)

When a family member or friend leaves the Church, it can be a very heart-wrenching experience. It can also be difficult to know what to say or do in order to support them as they navigate life without the teachings of the gospel. This was the situation Joseph Smith faced throughout his life as close friends would sometimes leave and become antagonistic toward the Church. But in Doctrine and Covenants 71–75, we find invaluable counsel the Lord gives to Joseph Smith that can help us today as we seek to support and love those who have left the Church.
