The Gospel Never Changes

I hope everyone has had a wonderful Holiday Season. As the new year begins I have been reflecting on the things that matter the most, family comes to mind but I have to say that my relationship with my Heavenly Father is right there at the top. The one thing that I have began to realize is the gospel never changes. The more I read the scriptures and study the doctrines and principles they are the same.

There are so many things that change is this world and it seems there is just a constant state of change. Take science for example, here is a quote that really shows how quickly things change.

“One day during his tenure as a professor, Albert Einstein was visited by a student. 'The questions on this year's exam are the same as last year's!' the young man exclaimed. 'Yes,' Einstein answered, "but this year all the answers are different.' (Albert Einstein)”

This is a perfect example of why the scriptures have stood the test of time and all the principles taught from the time of Adam and Eve until today by our current prophet are still the same. The Lord is unchanging and the gospel is perfect. A life long study will only strengthen our understanding of the doctrines of Christ because the "Gospel Never Changes."

I want to challenge everyone to spend some time this year studying and learning the gospel because it will only benefit you and help you through out your life as the things you learn will stand the test of time.
