W02 Report: Personal Study 1. I read all of the scriptures and resources assigned for this week. - True 2. How did those spirits involved in the war in heaven (Revelation 12:7–11) overcome "the great dragon…that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan"? - Revelation 12:11 3. In the premortal Grand Council, who was the first to respond with “Here am I, send me” to the Father’s question, “Whom shall I send?” (Abraham 3)? - (Abr. 3:27) 4. According to Moses 1:39, what is the ultimate purpose of the Lord? - They receive not Christ or His law. 5. Perfection in the celestial kingdom of God can only be obtained by mortals through the Atonement of Jesus Christ. (See D&C 76:69) - True 6. Why is it that few people find the straight gate and narrow way that leads to exaltation and the continuation of their lives? (D&C 132:19–25) - They receive not Christ or His law. 7. In one paragraph (75–150 words), describe Heavenly Father’s plan for His children. (Moses 1:39; Doctrine and Covenants 14:7)
Heavenly Father’s plan for His children is to learn, grow, become like Him, and go back to Him one day. Heavenly Father wants us to be happy because that is part of his plan known as the plan of happiness through His atoning sacrifice. Heavenly Father loves and cares for us so much hence why he sent His only begotten son Jesus Christ to come die and save us from our sins. He did this for us to be happy and not suffer. 8. In one paragraph (75–150 words), provide a couple of examples explaining the ways that God’s plan brings about His ultimate goal and purposes for His children. (D&C 76:50–70, 91–95; 131:1–4; 132:19–25; 2 Nephi 31:14–21; 3 Nephi 27:1–21) One example of explaining the ways that God’s plan brings about His ultimate goal and purposes for His children is from 2 Nephi 31:14–21. God's plan is for us to receive a testimony of an ever-lasting gospel and a testimony that He is the Christ who died and went through all the hardships to give us a chance to be able to return home again through baptism, repentance, and keeping His commandments. Another example of explaining the ways that God’s plan brings about His ultimate goal and purposes for His children is from 3 Nephi 27:1–21. Heavenly ultimate goal is to bring the correct church to His children. The Church of Jesus Christ is the true church that teaches the correct principles of the Savior than those other churches. 9. In one paragraph (75–150 words), describe how gospel ordinances and covenants help you receive the “power of godliness” and fulfill God’s ultimate purpose to become like Him. (D&C 84:20) The gospel of ordinances and covenants helps me receive the “power of godliness” and fulfill God’s ultimate purpose to become like Him through the covenants I have made with Jesus Christ. For example, when I got baptized, I made a promise to take upon myself His name, to always remember Him, Keep His Commandments, and Serve Him til the end. Not only do I receive the “power of godliness” and fulfill God’s ultimate purpose to become like Him but also receive blessings.
