“Thy Days Shall Be Spent in the Service of Thy God”

George Reynolds, Janne M. Sjodahl

The greatest blessing a human being can receive: To belong to the entourage of the King of kings!

Thou art redeemed. Not because of the afflictions suffered, but, "because of the righteousness of thy Redeemer." It is the righteousness of the Redeemer that is the foundation of the redemption of man, and Lehi repeats this again and again. (See vv. 6, 8, 26, 28) A slave, who is bought and set free, is redeemed.
