President Faust

• James E. Faust told of an experience he had
  some time ago when a car with an
  out-of- state license plate stopped him in his
  walk and asked, Where is the church of the
  Mormons?
• He directed them to Temple Square, but said, in
  retrospect, I could have pointed to my chest and
  said that the Church should be first and foremost
  in our hearts.

Jeremiah 31

• Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I
  will make a new covenant with the house of
  Israel, and with the house of Judah
• 32 Not according to the covenant that I made with
  their fathers in the day that I took them by the
  hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt
  which my covenant they brake, although I was an
  husband unto them, saith the LORD
• 33 But this shall be the covenant that I will
  make with the house of Israel After those days,
  saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward
  parts, and write it in their hearts and will be
  their God, and they shall be my people.

Question- Shouldnt this read THEY will put the
law on their inner parts?
12
Ezek. 3626,27

• A new heart also will I give you, and a new
  spirit will I put within you and I will take
  away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I
  will give you an heart of flesh.

13
Father of King Lamoni

• What shall I do that I may have this eternal life
  of which thou has spoken?
• Yea born of God, having this wicked spirit rooted
  out of my breast, and receive his Spirit that I
  may be filled with joy

Distinguishing Characteristicsof a changed heart

  zeal towards God,

• for they were perfectly honest and upright in
  all things

  unto the end.

President Snow

• We must dedicate our time, talents, and
  ability. If we as elders fail to keep the
  covenants we have made, namely, to use
  our time, talents, and ability for the up
  building of the kingdom of God upon the
  earth, how can we reasonably expect to come
  forth in the morning of the First
  Resurrection, identified with the great work
  of redemption?
• If we in our manner, habits and dealings, imitate
  the Gentile world, thereby identifying ourselves
  with the world, do you think, my brethren, that
  God will bestow upon us the blessings we desire
  to inherit? I tell you no, He will not! In all
  our business occupations we must prove ourselves
  better than any other people, or we forfeit all.
• We must build ourselves up in the righteousness
  of heaven and plant in our hearts the
  righteousness of God. Said the Lord, through the
  prophet Jeremiah, "I will put my law in their
  inward parts, and write it in their hearts and
  will be their God, and they shall be my people."
  This is what the Lord is endeavoring to do, and
  this He will accomplish in us if we conform to
  His will.
