Footnotes

2a	Acts 20: 19. 19 ^aServing the Lord with all ^bhumility of mind, and with many ^ctears, and ^dtemptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews: TG Children of Light. TG Service.
b	Josh. 22: 5. 5 But take ^adiligent heed to do the ^bcommandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the Lord charged you, to ^clove the Lord your God, and to ^dwalk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to ^eserve him with all your ^fheart and with all your soul. Judg. 6: 14. 14 And the Lord looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy ^amight, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: have not I sent thee? 1 Sam. 7: 3. 3 ¶ And Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye do ^areturn unto the Lord with all your hearts, then ^bput away the strange ^cgods and ^dAshtaroth from among you, and prepare your ^ehearts unto the Lord, and ^fserve him only: and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines. D&C 20: 19. 19 And gave unto them commandments that they should ^alove and ^bserve him, the only ^cliving and true ^dGod, and that he should be the only being whom they should worship. D&C 76: 5. 5 For thus saith the Lord—I, the Lord, am ^amerciful and gracious unto those who ^bfear me, and delight to honor those who ^cserve me in righteousness and in truth unto the end. TG Commitment. TG Dedication. TG Heart. TG Mind. TG Strength.
c	1 Cor. 1: 8. 8 Who shall also ^aconfirm you unto the end, that ye may be ^bblameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. Col. 1: 22. 22 In the body of his flesh through ^adeath, to present you holy and ^bunblameable and unreproveable in his sight: Jacob 1: 19. 19 And we did ^amagnify our office unto the Lord, taking upon us the ^bresponsibility, answering the sins of the people upon our own heads if we did not ^cteach them the word of God with all diligence; wherefore, by laboring with our might their ^dblood might not come upon our garments; otherwise their blood would come upon our garments, and we would not be found spotless at the last day. Mosiah 3: 21. 21 And behold, when that time cometh, none shall be found ^ablameless before God, except it be little children, only through repentance and faith on the name of the Lord God Omnipotent. 3 Ne. 27: 20. 20 Now this is the commandment: ^aRepent, all ye ends of the earth, and come unto me and be ^bbaptized in my name, that ye may be ^csanctified by the reception of the Holy Ghost, that ye may stand ^dspotless before me at the last day. D&C 88: 85. 85 That their souls may escape the wrath of God, the ^adesolation of abomination which awaits the wicked, both in this world and in the world to come. Verily, I say unto you, let those who are not the ^bfirst elders continue in the vineyard until the mouth of the Lord shall ^ccall them, for their time is not yet come; their garments are not ^dclean from the blood of this generation.
