Prophets of this century have foretold about a time when the Gospel would be spread to every person on earth. We are living in that time and it is because of the technology of our day. Prior to 1820, nothing traveled faster than a horse. Then around 1820, the heavens opened and knowledge came to the earth. Communication across the world can be in an instant. It is exciting to live in these days. 80% of the members of the Church now live with 2 hours of a temple, with more to be built. Family history records are opening up and each week I find more and more relatives to do temple work for.
As I have been reading in the Book of Mormon in Alma, I am impressed that we are told what the Nephites wore in battle and what the Lamanites wore. The Nephites had breastplates and armor - and so did their children. The Lamanites wore just loin clothes to battle. It reminds me of the need to be prepared spiritually and be dressed not only spiritually to face the evils of this world, but the need for be clothed in temple clothes. Honor your temple covenants. Go there often and your families will be blessed.
