But Alma said unto him: Thou hast had signs enough; will ye tempt your God? Will ye say, Show unto me a sign, when ye have the testimony of all these thy brethren, and also all the holy prophets? The scriptures are laid before thee, yea, and all things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator. - Alma 30:44

Title of liberty

Today during my scripture I came across this scripture that was referring to Captain Moroni raising the title of liberty as he is trying to raise troops to aid Pahoran win back the government: "And it came to pass that thousands did flock unto his standard, and did take up their swords in the defence of their freedom, that they might not come into bondage." - Alma 62:5. Note: not a few - but THOUSANDS.

Let's talk a little bit about history. During World War II there were a lot of young men that were very desirous to gone the Armed Forces to defend their country. Now let's talk about the current War we are in now. I really don't see the same enthusiasm to defend our country, do you?

Okay...so now let's talk about the spiritual war that we are in. Are we actively flocking to the Lord's "Title of Liberty" today? Are we actively fighting again Satan and his angels?
