Upon the Rock of Our Redeemer

Helaman 1-6 | Aug 17-23

Helaman taught his sons, Nephi and Lehi, to remember that we should build our foundations upon the rock of our Redeemer, which is the gospel of Jesus Christ. When our testimonies and our faith are firmly built upon the gospel of Jesus Christ, it’s easier to withstand the storms and trials of life, and avoid the temptation of becoming prideful.

Nephi and Lehi became faithful missionaries. They taught many people to believe in Jesus Christ and build their foundations on the rock of our Redeemer.

Scripture

Helaman 5:12

“And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall.”

Quote

“…If you make your home a house of prayer and fasting, faith, learning and glory, and order, it can become a house of God. If you build your homes on the foundation rock of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer and the gospel, they can be sanctuaries where your families can be sheltered from the raging storms of life.” Joseph B. Wirthlin
