It is Not a Sacrifice

It is not a sacrifice
To do our Father's will
For no service could suffice
As we are in debt still

Mosiah 2 - The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints




Scriptures · Book of Mormon · Mosiah; 2 .... And ye are still indebted unto him, and are, and will be, forever and ever; therefore, of what have ye to boast? 25 And  ...

21 I say unto you that if ye should serve him who has created you from the beginning, and is preserving you from day to day, by lending you breath, that ye may live and move and do according to your own will, and even supporting you from one moment to another—I say, if ye should serve him with all your whole souls yet ye would be unprofitable servants.

 22 And behold, all that he requires of you is to keep his commandments; and he has promised you that if ye would keep his commandments ye should prosper in the land; and he never doth vary from that which he hath said; therefore, if ye do keep his commandments he doth bless you and prosper you.

 23 And now, in the first place, he hath created you, and granted unto you your lives, for which ye are indebted unto him.

 24 And secondly, he doth require that ye should do as he hath commanded you; for which if ye do, he doth immediately bless you; and therefore he hath paid you. And ye are still indebted unto him, and are, and will be, forever and ever; therefore, of what have ye to boast?
