Teaching For Our Times: “Foundations of Faith (Quentin L. Cook)
Teacher: Christina Robertson
“My plea is that we will make the sacrifices and have the humility necessary to strengthen the foundations of our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. “
· “Personal foundations, like many worthwhile pursuits, are usually built slowly—one layer, one experience, one challenge, one setback, and one success at a time.”
· “Physical, mental, and spiritual development have much in common. Physical development is fairly easy to see. Development is different for each person.“
· “In an increasingly secular world, less emphasis is placed on the amount of spiritual growth necessary to become more Christlike and establish the foundations that lead to enduring faith.”
· “Spiritual guidance is received when needed, in the Lord’s time and according to His will. Just as repetition and consistent effort are required to gain physical or mental capacity, the same is true in spiritual matters.”
· “Initial foundations of faith, even with spiritual confirmation, do not mean that we will not face challenges. Conversion to the gospel does not mean all our problems will be solved.”
· "Adversity should not be viewed as either disfavor from the Lord or a withdrawal of His blessings. Opposition in all things is part of the refiner’s fire to prepare us for an eternal celestial destiny.”
· "In the end, our faith in Jesus Christ is the essential foundation for our eternal salvation and exaltation. ”
