Unit 1 Choice 2
#1 Paul teaches us in 1 Tim 2:9-10
that women need to dress modestly which includes showing self-control and reverence
with what we wear and not giving into having flashy and expensive clothing.
D&C 61:18, 36 give us greater
insight that both men and women need not to even come close to immodesty “lest
we be caught in snares.” Immodesty can steal away our virtue!
Moses 6:9, Mosiah 2:37, Alma 41:2 =
3 reasons why our bodies could be considered sacred
1. We
are created in God’s own image
2. We
must keep our bodies clean so the Lord may visit us, “for he dwelleth not in
unholy temples”
3. We
must take care of our bodies because they are ours for eternity. We will one
day be resurrected with these same bodies
Knowing that our bodies are sacred
helps me to remember that my body is beautiful and one of a kind. I am reminded
that I don’t need to alter my body in any way because God created it and He
only makes perfect things. By remembering that, I am able to dress modestly
because I am not looking for others approval and reactions toward my body to
validate that I am beautiful
Alma 1:32 talks about wearing
costly apparel
To better apply these principal in
my life I can make the choice now to always dress modestly and then at the end
of the day to reflect upon how I felt about myself throughout that day as I
dressed modestly.

In order to complete this assignment I read all
of the readings and then pondered about what they said
- · I decided to do this assignment because recently I just watched a video about modesty that was from a nonmember which really moved me and so I wanted to learn more
- · The best thing about this assignment was all of the scripture references
- · This assignment could be improved by giving us scenarios and having us try to figure out how to solve them by still dressing modestly
Unit 2 Choice 1
#1 Hebrews 5:4, Numbers 27:18.23,
D&C 41:11, articles of faith 1:5
In order for men to receive the
priesthood authority of God must have a pure heart and then be called of God as
one who is worthy of receiving his authority. Then he is given God’s authority
by one who already holds the authority, who then lays his hands upon the man’s
head to give him the priesthood.
We can know if a man truly has the
authority of God by the Holy Ghost. We can pray and ask our Heavenly Father if
certain men should be our leaders or the prophecy that they preached was true
or not. “By the power of the Holy Ghost, we may know the truth of all things.”
