Section 85

The Prophet, Joseph, was led by the Spirit in all things pertaining to his calling as a Prophet of God.  In this section he makes reference to the strength and power of the Spirit as he received direction, counsel, and inspiration.  He felt it in his bones it would be so strong at times.  Often his message was to fulfill ones duty to family and the church.  He was also admonished to keep God’s commandments and to fulfill one’s stewardships.  The justice of God is, in my way of thinking, his fairness.  He is fair in all of his judgments and dealings with his children. In this section Joseph is instructed on God’s fairness in dealing with his children who decide to ignore his instructions, council, and commandments.
