“The study of the doctrines of the gospel will improve behavior quicker than a study of behavior will
improve behavior… . That is why we stress so forcefully the study of the doctrines of the gospel.”
President Boyd K. Packer in Conference Report, Oct. 1986, 20; or Ensign, Nov. 1986, 17 (via irrelephantae)

“No prophet in the Book of Mormon, by temperament or personal testimony, seems to have gone about that work of persuasion any more faithfully than did Jacob. He scorned the praise of the world, he taught straight, solid, even painful doctrine, and he knew the Lord personally. His is a classic Book of Mormon example of a young man’s decision to suffer the cross and bear the shame of the world in defense of the name of Christ.”

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.”
2 Timothy 3:16

“One of the striking findings for the student of the scriptures is the frequency with which the same truth, the same idea, the same insight, the same concept appears (and often with exactly the same words) in various books of the scripture. This is true not only with major doctrines, but also with very minor things that witness to the fact that the doctrines and truths that reappear come from the same source. No wonder the prophets are consistent with each other.”
Neal A Maxwell
