“I Did Liken All Scriptures Unto Us”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet
Gospel principles do not tarnish with time, nor do they apply with greater effect in one day than in another. The Lord has said, “What I say unto one I say unto all” (D&C 93:49). The art of gospel teaching is to make timeless principles timely. Nephi did this by taking those prophecies that were made to the entire house of Israel and specifically applying them to his own family, who are part of the house of Israel.
