"In order for the messages of general
conference to change our lives, we need to be willing to follow the
counsel we hear. The Lord explained in a revelation to the Prophet
Joseph Smith 'that when ye are assembled together ye shall instruct and
edify each other, that ye may know . . . how to act upon the points of
my law and commandment.' But knowing 'how to act' isn't
enough. The Lord in the next verse said, 'Ye shall bind yourselves
to act in all holiness before me.' This willingness to take action
on what we have learned opens the doors for marvelous blessings."
—Paul

Blessings of General Conference," Ensign, Nov. 2005,

"This book gives incredible insight as to how we can master our weaknesses and overcome the most difficult of mortal challenges."
—J. R. Johansen, Evergreen International Board of Trustees
As mortals living in a fallen world, each
of us is subject to the limitations and downward pull of the flesh. At
times, we may think of our body as a prison rather than as a temple.
Thankfully, the Lord has filled the scriptures with instructions regarding what
we should and should not do with the various parts of our body.
"If we ignore these instructions for
our spiritual anatomy, we will find ourselves prisoners to the carnal flesh,
spiraling downward into captivity and forfeiting our rightful place in the next
life," writes best-selling author Steven A. Cramer. "But as we
do our best to apply the Lord’s counsel for each part of our bodies, we make
it possible for Christ to rescue us from the Fall and give us a newness of life
in His image."
Victory in Christ offers hope and
encouragement that leads to victory through the love and atonement of Jesus
Christ. It will help you live in a temple body worthy of the companionship
of the Holy Spirit.
"In
a time when life seems to be getting more hectic each day, it brings great
comfort and peace to be reminded that our Savior is aware of our condition and
has provided a way that we may take upon us His image."
—Dr. Ken Middleton, Layton, Utah
