Notes
Instagram caption 07/10/2024: "In yet another tragic moment, we study the noble sacrifice of the Anti-Nephi-Lehies, who chose death rather than betrayal of their oath to God. Their faithfulness eventually turned the hearts of their oppressors, so that Christ’s love and atonement could reach even the hardest of hearts. I imagine their fear being calmed by the reassurance of the spirit. Their integrity surely counted as a great mark of their faithfulness."
