Primary 1 - The Beginning


Our beloved class,


Reading this week's message, we were impressed to express a couple of things.


First, the greatest event that Heavenly Father did for us is established he was our Father and that truly his Son as our Savior through his visit of the boy Joseph.


Second, Joseph was and the early saints were encouraged to build a home for Him, who sent us here, and his Son, who redeems us, to visit us. That by doing so we could receive blessings.


Third, the keys allowed us to be with our ancestors, our mothers, and fathers; brothers and sisters. Our Father loved us so much that he gave us the priesthood and keys associated with the power of our father.


Like a car battery that needs a car for its purpose of use, so is the power of Heavenly Father. Power is without purpose without the purpose of its use. Heaven would not be heaven without our families and so we start with the thing that is most precious to us.


Children, we also receive strength, inspiration, support, and encouragement from meeting with each other. It is a blessing to know that we are not alone and that there are people we can turn to for guidance.


We could challenge you to watch the video of the 1st vision or memorize the scripture James 1:5


We would also remind you that the houses of God that we have our temples, churches, and... our home. That's right, in this time of turmoil we should make our homes a house of God like the saints before you. Pray and read with your parents and siblings. May Heavenly Father bless you this week.


Love your teachers,


 Brother Keller and Bingham

Primary 133 - Preservation of your testimony and chastity

Image
source   Children, 1 Corinthians 6:13 13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body. Paul spoke of fornication but this could also apply to things that pollute the soul. You would not eat a rotten apple. The foolish would say "But it is an apple". The same is said for sexual and spiritual purity. You cannot say you can get spiritual nourishment from corruptible things. Books, movies, and the like are no good if there is corruption in their content.  He further stated that our bodies are owned by another; a rental. We are owned by Christ if we care about our covenant of obedience. The especially for youth handbook encourages obedience, charity, chastity, repentance, and faith. When you become a teen you will be shown more on the topic but for now, strive for stern obedience. For moms and dads, he said that Mom owns Dad's chastity and vice

Primary 52 - Adam and Eve

Image
image God created our first parents. He created male and female; man and woman. When He created them they were equals. You see Heavenly Father did not create Eve from the head of Adam to be over him or by his foot to be below him. He didn't make Eve from the sternum or back to be behind or front of him. He, God, made Eve, Adam's wife, from his side, under his strong arm, near his heart. This is how we view marriage. The very symbol of marriage shows how much the need to find and be equal in marriage is. As saints, we strive to maintain the companionship that will make you a better person and at the same time will strive to encourage your spouse to be a better person.  Many years from now you will be dating or preparing for marriage. Brothers and sisters, look for a companion that will strengthen you and make you smile. Being in love is not just a feeling, it's a commitment. This commitment will require trust, respect, compassion, charity, repentence, and forgive

Primary 128 - Pricked or Cut

Image
I mage Children,  The Holy Ghost can touch us in one of two ways. Either we are pricked to do good or cut by the good word. The Greeks have a word for this. Hodos means "In the way". Is the Savior in the way of our success or are we doing things "In the Savior's way seeking His success?" The role of a disciple.  When the church has grown we have been given responsibilities callings and keys according to our ability and spiritual potential.  We should be eagerly engaged in the work we are called to do to lighten the load of those who are called to do more such as Bishops or Stake Presidents. Visiting the widowed and orphaned can be done by them but they ask many to be ministers to the many to bear the load. Don't just see the vision but catch it. When you catch the vision, it has changed you to do more and be actively engaged in the Lord's work.  Stephen and Phillip who were members of the seventy showed it in their actions.  Alma, Paul, Josep
