Mosiah 7:18-33
Read online here
At this point in the scriptures we have three separate Nephite groups: King Mosiah's people, King Limhi's people and the people of Ammon who fled after Abinidi was killed.
The good news is that it won't be long until the will be gathered together again.
Th overall message of this half of the chapter is summed up in verse 33: IF ye serve the Lord He will help you.
QUESTION: In verse 20 Limhi spoke of iniquities and abominations What do you think is the difference between the two?

I think iniquities are the littler things. Abominations are the active, purposeful sins against God, others, and even humanity/society. They are the big things.
ReplyDeleteWe are all sinful (iniquity) and need to repent. But there is a line, we just do not cross. Satan worship, adultery, robbery, abuse of children, sacrificing humans, cannabilism, sexual sin, murder, mayhem...When one crosses the "line" it's more abomination level acts.
That's how I look at it.
