"After having translated the Book of Mormon, the Prophet knew
that he had
in his hands the most pure and correct religious text ever
printed. When people
read the Book of Mormon, praying sincerely about its content
and Moroni's
promise, they will know it is true and the Spirit will move
them to seek
membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,
the church that
Joseph Smith was commanded by God to organize. This simple
conversion process,
repeated millions of times, has brought to individuals and
families a testimony
of the magnificent truths of the Restoration. All who want to
know of these
truths for themselves, both members of the Church and those
who are not, may
apply Moroni's great promise in their own lives and come to
know of a surety
that the Book of Mormon is true and that its message can
forever alter their
lives in a positive, even glorious, direction." — Hugh W.

"How could anyone claim that we are not Christian people if
they had even a
minimal understanding of the original Church as described in
the New Testament,
with baptism for the dead (see 1
Cor. 15:29), the Melchizedek Priesthood (see Heb.
5:6,
10), Apostles, prophets, evangelists, and teachers. (see
Eph.
4:11.)" - Hugh W. Pinnock, "Learning Our Father's
Will,"

"...For heaven's sake, forget your regrets. The many years you
have lived have been filled both with success and with
experiences you might change if you could. But you can't, so
stop any self-inflicted sadness or despair. When the Savior
said, 'Judge not,' he was speaking, in part, about your
relationship with yourself (see Matt.
7:1). Live the repentant life happily. The scripture
'Men are, that they might have joy' (2
Ne. 2:25) applies to you right now." - Hugh W.

A friend asked me
several months ago why so many problems have been plaguing a
number of the members of the Church recently. I hesitatingly
answered, “Well, the last days are surely approaching when even
the elect shall be deceived.” (See Matt.
24:24.) He looked at me momentarily and said, “Well,
perhaps that might be a little of it, but I believe the real
reason that so many are wandering on strange paths is because
they do not follow prophetic counsel to study the scriptures and
attend the classes in Church.” - Hugh
