In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

As I speed read the BOM during the next 12 weeks I pick out the phrases that jump out at me and this is it today.  “And none shall be destroyed that believe in him.”( 2 Nephi6:14)

The beginning is that “God created the heavens and the earth.”  (Geneses 1:1) And promised us a Savior and in the meridian of time “God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that who so believe in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) We are now in the end time. The gospel has been restored and the distance between good and evil is becoming greater. Eventually the cleansing of the earth will come. The wicked shall be destroyed in that everlasting gulf of misery, but none shall be destroyed that believe in him.

In those days of turmoil many will pass from mortality into immortality (physical death), but those that know Christ will be made alive in God’s kingdom. Even from the beginning of time man has died after the manner of the flesh, but because of the atonement of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ we need not fear death if we believe in him.
