“One Fold and One Shepherd,” Easter Study Plan (2024)
Thursday, March 28
One Fold and One Shepherd
“Other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd (3 Nephi 15:21).
Jesus Christ told the Nephites that they were the “sheep” he had referred to when He taught in Jerusalem, “Other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring” (3 Nephi 15:21). Jesus lovingly declared that there “shall be one fold, and one shepherd” and prophesied about the latter-day gathering of Israel.
One way we can help with the gathering of Israel is to share the message of the Book of Mormon, as we have been invited to do by Elder Ronald A. Rasband:
My dear friends, as an Apostle of the Lord, I invite you to follow our beloved prophet, President Nelson, in flooding the earth with the Book of Mormon. The need is so great; we need to act now. I promise that you will be participating in “the greatest work on earth,” the gathering of Israel, as you are inspired to reach out to those who have been “kept from the truth because they know not where to find it.” They need your testimony and witness of how this book has changed your life and drawn you closer to God, His peace, and His “tidings of great joy.”
I testify that by divine design the Book of Mormon was prepared in ancient America to come forth to declare God’s word, to bring souls to the Lord Jesus Christ and His restored gospel “this day.” (“This Day,” Liahona, Nov. 2022, 27)
Read and Ponder
Who could you share the gospel of Jesus Christ with this Easter season? This could be through a simple act of kindness, sharing an uplifting message, or inviting someone to worship with you this Easter Sunday.
