Here’s your daily dose of what matters most! If we are not careful, we can be caught by temptation. Today, learn about staying away from dangerous tools of the adversary, including the poison of pornography.

Scripture

And I said unto them that it was the word of God; and whoso would hearken unto the word of God, and would hold fast unto it, they would never perish; neither could the temptations and the fiery darts of the adversary overpower them unto blindness, to lead them away to destruction.—1 Nephi 15:24

Quote

Pornography, though billed by Satan as entertainment, is a deeply poisonous, deceptive snake that lies coiled up in magazines, the Internet, and the television.—David E. Sorensen
