  1. What's wrong with being GOOD? --nothing.
  2. Is there power in being GOOD? Why or why not? --Yes, the more obedient or "good" you are, the more the Lord will bless you with the Spirit. The Spirit is power.
OBEDIENCE = BLESSINGS = HAPPY :)

  • D&C 93:6 "And John saw and bore record of the fullness of my glory, and the fullness of John’s record is hereafter to be revealed."
  • D&C 130: 20-21 "There is a law, irrevocably decreed in heaven before the foundations of this world, upon which all blessings are predicated--And when we obtain any blessing from God, it is by obedience to that law upon which it is predicated."
  • D&C 89: 18-21 "And all saints who remember to keep and do these sayings, walking in obedience to the commandments, shall receive health in their navel and marrow to their bones; And shall find wisdom of knowledge, even hidden treasures; And shall run and not be weary, and shall walk and not faint. And I, the Lord, give unto them a promise, that the destroying angel shall pass by them, as the children of Israel, and not slay them. Amen." and great treasures
  • D&C 130:19 "And if a person gains more knowledge and intelligence in this life through his diligence and obedience than another, he will have so much the advantage in the world to come."
