Mosiah 23 – 24
Alma did as Abinadi has counseled and taught the people the law of Moses and the intent for which it was given. Amulon and his brethren did what they had done before and taught neither the law of Moses nor the intent for which it was given. The fact that the Lord strengthened the people of Alma so that their burdens were light to them is the same thing the Lord will do for us when we have truly covenanted to follow Him. Even if there are consequences for our previous sins still to be borne by us those will feel light to us as we are buoyed by our covenant. We may recognize the cause of the burden and declare with Joy that the Lord is just and know that the burden is temporary while the salvation is eternal.
