Wherefore, I said unto you, Feast upon the words of Christ; for behold the words of Christ will tell you all things what ye should do. 2 Nephi 14:4
The Lord established feasts as part of the old law to commemorate important prophetic Biblical events so that future generations would remember God’s greatness and mercy toward them. In this way the Lord prepared his people to recognize Christ’s fulfillment of the law.
We have the opportunity to feast, not just a few times a year, but daily as we open the sacred texts that have been preserved for us. When David declared “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path” he understood the importance of ordering our lives according to the holy word of God.
