Why Did Helaman Compare Christ to a Rock? (Knowhy #176)

submitted by jenniferbaptista on 08/17/20 1

"And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall." Helaman 5:12 Nephi, the son of Helaman, recalls the counsel his father gave him to build upon the rock of Christ. This idea of Christ being a stone or rock that serves as a refuge or place of safety is also common in the Old Testament. Books such as the Psalms, Isaiah, and Deuteronomy, that the Lehites would likely have had access to on the plates of brass, use similar language. knowhy.bookofmormoncentral.org/content/why-did-helaman-compare-christ-to-a-rock Music License Purchased through Premiumbeats Fair Use Notice This channel may make use of copyrighted material, the use of which has not always been specifically authorized by the copyright owner.
