Message 83:5
The ways of man will not save you. I give the instructions and the authority in its assured way. Those that speak lightly of my words, deny me and the trust and authority—it is taken from them for they lose by their sin. In time they will amount to nothing. Fear them not. They have no right nor authority from my words.
We are on our own to figure out what to believe and who to follow. Christ’s teachings are what we need to follow, but we have to figure out who is teaching them. We cannot follow a person blindly, no matter what they teach, for they are human and will sometimes make mistakes. Only Christ is pure and only through him can we have salvation.
