Summary

A verse-by-verse study of Mosiah 11-17, which recounts the wickedness of King Noah and the message and martyrdom of Abinadi. In this lesson we examine the second generation of Hansen's Law, King Benjamin and King Noah as literary foils, categories of wickedness, willful ignorance of God and His prophets, the difference between the moral law and the ceremonial law, and two opposing ways to narrow the gap between belief and behavior. Part 1 of a 2-part series to accompany your weekly Come Follow Me study of the Book of Mormon.

These are some of the best chapters in the Book of Mormon.

0:48.9

In fact, once you get into a binadai's words, the pages start falling out of my scriptures. I've already had my scriptures
