Hello everyone, my name is Hank Smith. I'm the host of a podcast called Follow Him. I'm here with my wonderful co-host

His name is John by the way you've probably heard of him. Hi John. Hi Hank.

John, this little clip is called Follow Him Favorites. Hopefully people have seen one by now. It's where we take this week's

Come Follow Me Lesson and instead of doing our big podcast that we have, we decide to do just a small little clip called Follow Him Favorites

where you get to choose your one favorite. This week's lesson is doctrine covenants section 76, the whole thing, all

100 and 19 verses and you get to choose one follow him favorite. So what is it? What are you what are you thinking?

This is a tough one because I could have chosen lots but I like first 40 and 41 because it starts out and this is the gospel.

And a lot of times when we define the gospel or our friends do it they define it by rules. Oh I know what the gospel is. You can't drink.

Oh I know what the gospel is. You can't do this. You can't wear that. Oh I know what the gospel is. Don't go shopping on Sunday and I said, oh no.

I heard a teenager say John I heard a teenager say once I need a t-shirt that says I'm the member of the church I can't. Right like that was that's what it means to be a part of the gospel. I can't.

Yeah and to define it that way which is awful and so here is a scripture defining okay this is the gospel. I love it. That's the quote and this is the gospel. The glad tidings which the voice out of the heavens bore record unto us that he came into the world even Jesus to be crucified for the world to bear the sins of the world and to sanctify the world and to cleanse it from all unrighteousness that the world is in the world.

That's through him all might be saved. I mean that is the gospel. It's not felt what you do on Sunday. The gospel is that Jesus came and loved us and died for us and cleanses us so that we can be saved. That's it. So that's my favorite right little.

Great follow him favorite wouldn't it be great for a young person to just kind of memorize that and if someone were to say oh you're a ladder member the church Jesus Christ later he seems what do you believe well there's a verse in our scripture that says let me tell you what I believe right this is what I believe because that that sums it up perfectly.

The good news is that all might be saved. It's good it's glad that's those are the words we're seeing here is this is good news and those of you listening all means you right you're like oh I'm good he's going to save everyone oh poor me I won't be in no all means you you're included in the word all do my math yeah my fall him favorite is very similar it's all the way on the next page over in verse 69 it says these are they who are just men and I'm not going to say that.

They're just men and will add women made perfect through Jesus the mediator of the new covenant who brought out this perfect atonement this perfect atonement through the shutting of his own blood John I've heard you said talk about Marona 10 before where Marona writes at the very end of the book of Mormon come under Christ and be perfected in him and you've said it's crucial you get the order right it's not be perfect so you can come under

Christ it's come under Christ so you can be made perfect in him right if the order is important church I'm not good enough I can't go to I can't go yeah exactly it's oh that's why you come right you come perfected in him it's not you that's perfect it's him and his perfect atonement which will change your life it'll change everything about you in the words of one of my students her name is Laura Cope she said

Jesus can make your dreams come true and then some and I think that's a that's a hundred percent true his perfect atonement can make your dreams come true and then some we hope that you'll join us on the full podcast we just we don't do follow him favorites we do follow him everything on the on the podcast so this week where with Dr. Stephen Harper who just knows just about everything about Joseph Smith so we
