King Benjamin's righteous leadership led his entire kingdom in spiritual rebirth as his people united in covenant with God. These covenants prepared them for a constitutional republic, a greater expansion of the Church, and the reception of the Jaredite gold plates which were translated by Mosiah the seer using the Urim & Thummim.
Is there a parallel among the signs of the times in our day?
Learn the incredible and moving story of the Scottish Covenanters! During the 17th century, national revival swept across Scotland and thousands gathered to make covenants with God. Like King Benjamin's people, these faithful saints were driven by a desire to become like the ancient children of Israel, and political, cultural, and religious reform spread across Scotland.
Sadly, these covenants required a heavy price-as thousands were persecuted, imprisoned, tortured, and even killed for their faith. However, persecution drove these "Covenanters" to America, paving the way for the Restoration of the Gospel.
Discover compelling stories of courage and fortitude as you meet heroes and heroines including Margaret Wilson, James Renwick, James Guthrie, and others!
As we study the parallels between King Benjamin and the Scottish Covenanters, we might ask ourselves: what would happen if a similar movement took place today? History would truly never be the same again!
