We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; in deed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul ... if there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

God shall wipe away all tears...



“And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain, for the former things are passed away.” (Revelation 21:4)
“And then shall it come to pass that the spirits of those who are righteous are received into a state of peace, where they shall rest from all their problems and from all care, and sorrow.” (Alma40:12)
I like the Book of Mormon version because it says, “The spirits of those who are righteous.”   Maybe it is implied in the Bible version, for certainly Christ taught repentance continually. The fact is we cannot have peace, and rest unless we let go of all those things that drag us down and keep us from Christ and from having the Holy Spirit with us.
