Anyway, the guidance that was given was precious to me because he explicitly states that when we follow Christ, the kingdom is ours and the enemy shall not overcome us (v9). Also, like that's not enough, He has pleaded before the Father for all who believe on His name (v4). We are so blessed when we follow him because He is merciful unto our weaknesses (v14). All of this from Christ is given and He asks us to share that with the world!
He has set up the means for the great work of spreading the gospel to progress and asks that we administer relief to the needy and poor (v33-35). I've seen evidence of this in the church many times. There's not limit to how much the church does for those in need because we are blessed for seeking the riches of heaven (v39).
There are more things mentioned in this section but the last one I will address is loving one another (v25). As a member of the church I have heard how we should unify and be one through my life. I know we can accomplish so much more when wards are working together to spread the gospel and help the needy. Christ says, "if ye are not one ye are not mine," and not being His would break my heart (v27). Anyone who goes against the commandments, organizations, or any part of how the church works is fighting against God! I do not ever want to be an enemy to God because as it suggests in v9 (and many many other places in the scriptures) the enemy has no chance of winning.
