Today I read Mosiah 6 and I have often wondered at the
wording in this chapter. Did the people get baptized at this time? I
know in the Gospel and the Church of Jesus Christ one does not make a covenant
without an ordinance happening at the same time. But every other time it
talks about the people making a covenant with God it does specifically mention
baptism. So maybe this time they did not get baptized. But I do
like that King Benjamin appointed priests and teachers to make sure that the
people knew the Gospel and the will of God. It was a very happy time for
the people of Nephi during this time I believe. I wonder if they took
care of the poor among themselves? I’ll bet they did and they were
working towards becoming a Zion people. I just think they did not have
enough time to make it happen. Little by little we are told. One
step at a time. That is the way to achieve perfection. Until
tomorrow.
