Here’s your daily dose of what matters most! Today, we rejoice in the redemption of the dead and the revealed truths that help provide saving ordinances to our ancestors.

Scripture

For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.—Romans 14:9

Quote

What power would establish one Lord and one baptism, and then allow it to be that most of the human family never comes within its influence? Here then, was the answer. With proper authority an individual could be baptized for and in behalf of someone who had never had the opportunity. That individual would then accept or reject the baptism, according to his own desire.—Boyd K. Packer
