About the Product:
Mortal man may walk either the way of righteousness or the way of iniquity. The path chosen makes all the difference in this world and in the world to come. ''Where-fore, men are free ... to choose liberty and eternal life . . . or to choose captivity and death.''
This book clearly outlines the two paths and demonstrates the significance of choice in determining the path taken. Using examples from the scriptures, particularly from the Book of Mormon, the author describes the two opposing fulnesses, showing how a society can ascend to a fulness of joy via the path of righteousness or descend to a fulness of iniquity via the path of wickedness.
In the context of societies that generated evils, the author examines both the outward signs of iniquity and the evil influences that spring from inappropriate attitudes. Thus he pinpoints evils such as violence, perversions, secret combinations, materialism, military might, rejection of good, and refusal to repent. On the positive side he paints the happier picture of "cleansing the inner vessel," recognizing the need for personal righteousness, putting off the natural in favor of the spiritual man, enduring to the end-all with the joyous goal of attaining a Zion society. Here too are effective reminders -of the blessings of baptismal covenants, repentance, and the Atonement, and of the light, truth, intelligence, and ultimate glory that these and other revealed truths bring to the faithful.
Two paths, each clearly marked. The traveler is here strongly urged to follow the signposts that point to a fulness of joy and peace.
