2 Nephi 14





In this chapter Nephi delights in the grace and mercy of the Lord.  Isaiah teaches here that after the Lord has purged Zion of her filthiness, particularly of the worldliness of its women, Zion will become a place of refuge.  Every home there, every chapel and temple will receive the presence of the Lord.  We, too, have to be clean (purged) to receive His presence.  Isaiah’s descriptions convince me it’s better for me to purge myself than to wait for the Lord to do it for me.  How wonderful that the Lord loves us so much that He will cleanse us rather than giving up on us!
