Self check.
This is what I have always felt about Alma 5 since I first read it when I was a teenager in seminary. Probably because I was taught that by my seminary teacher, Bro. Walker, during my senior year.
I love the questions Alma gives us to ponder and help us readjust our lives to either get back on track or to keep going. Quoting vs 14 - 15:
- Have you spiritually been born of God?
- Have you received His image in your countenace?
- Have you experienced this mighty change in your heart?
- Do you exercise faith in the redemption of Him who created you?
- Do you look forward with an eye of faith?
- Can you stand before God to be judged according to the deeds which you have done lately?
It makes me stop and think. How am I doing? Can I do better? Am I willing?
The testimonies Alma and Amulek share with the stubborn and wicked people of Ammonihah is the type of testimony I hope to have some day.
