Welcome to Part 2 with Dr. Scott Esplard, Doctrine in Covenant, Section 60 through 63.

I just love verse 3, which you mentioned, Scott. Nevertheless, ye are blessed, for the testimony which ye have born is recorded in heaven for the angels to look upon.

Whoa, really? That happens? Angels rejoice over you and your sins are forgiven you.

Now you spoke about this being, was it Hiram? It's Hiram and David Whitmer and Harvey Whitlock

and John Murdoch. I think the four of them, their journey had been delayed, they'd preach the gospel.

One of them had also got sick along the way, so they stopped to get him better.

In that process, they missed the conference.

I see that, and I just hope that sort of thing we can apply to our testimony meetings.

I have a confession to make when I was a bishop.

Sometimes I was tired.

To help me stay awake, I started taking notes on everyone's testimony on testimony meetings.

That booklet now has blessed me at funerals.

It was really nice to be able to get up and say at Brother Wardell's funeral,

here's what he said on this date.

Here's what he said on this date.

Do you remember when he told us this on this date?

There's a reason to record those.

I love that we get this insight into, this is important on the other side of the veil that they're recording this. Who doesn't love the last six words

there and your sins are forgiven you? That one's marked up in my scriptures. I don't know about you

it. It doesn't know about you guys.

It doesn't mean that this person is going to accept it, this person that you talk to. It doesn't mean that they're going to jump right in. It could be just another little step forward.

I'm not a mission leader, and I'm not nearly as good at this as you guys are. But I do love,

...
