MISSIONARIES STRIVE TO DEVELOP CHRISTLIKE ATTRIBUTES

Matt 25:40

• Server your fellow men.
• Do what Christ would do.
• "As ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."

3 Nephi 18:24

• Don't let yourself be led into temptation. Follow the Lord.

MISSIONARIES ARE COMMANDED TO SERVE GOD WITH ALL THEIR "HEART, MIGHT, MIND AND STRENGTH"

D&C 18:15-16

• Serve with everything you have.
• Even if you only bring one soul to the knowledge of the truth, it was worth it.
• How great will be your joy when you bring souls unto repentance.

D&C 88:84

• "Tarry ye, and labor diligently." And go forth among the gentiles. We need to be missionaries and be 'perfected in our ministry'.

OBEDIENCE IS A VITAL ATTRIBUTE IN MISSIONARY WORK

• Can it get any simpler than that?
• "If ye love me, keep my commandments."
• I know we all love Him. So we must ALL keep His commandments.
• Keep the commandments.

• Nephi was obedient. He was courageous.
• Let's be more like Nephi and be 100% obedient.
• Sheri Dew has counseled us, "Pray and ask Heavenly Father to help you to be more obedient than you need to be."
