Tonight's reading taught me things about the Holy Ghost and the Light of Christ that I never knew about before. For example, I did not know that there was a difference between the Holy Ghost and the Light of Christ. I thought that they were the same thing just referred to differently. Also it was good that I learned that everyone on Earth was born with the Light of Christ in them and that even though everyone doesn't have the gift of the Holy Ghost, it can still be used by investigators to gain a testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
I liked the scripture reference Moroni 7:16-19 where it talks about how every man is is given the Spirit of Christ that they may know good from evil. My favorite part of this set of scriptures though is in verse 19 where it says "ye should search dilligently in the light of Christ that ye may know good from evil; and if ye will lay hold upon every good thing and condemn it not, ye certainly will be a child of Christ." I like this because being called a child of Christ is a big deal. When I think of Christ as my father it makes things make sense. We go to our Earthly fathers in trials or when we need guidance just like we turn to Christ when we need guidance and direction.
