Terryl L. Givens Quotes
As Individuals, We Also Are Apt To Use The Canon As A Cannon. We Invoke The Stripling Warriors Of Helaman And The Iron Rod Of Lehi's Vision To Ground Our Own Version Of Unflinching Obedience. Or We Invoke The Lessons Of The Liahona To Support Our More Spontaneous And Flexible Approach To Gospel Living. In America, Some Mormons Find Jesus' Ministry To The Downtrodden And King Benjamin's Words About Withholding Judgment But Not Relief From The Beggar To Be Apt Endorsement Of Their Preferred Political Policies. At The Other End Of The Spectrum, Some Invoke The War In Heaven Fought Over Agency And Consider The Mormon Ethic Of Self-reliance To Be Adequate Support For A Different Political Outlook. Or, Sometimes Individuals Even Employ The Cannon Against The Canon, Citing Inconsistencies And Imperfections In The Record As Grounds For Nonbelief In The Principle Of Inspiration, One's Faith Tradition, Or Even God.
