"His gospel is the perfect prescription for all human problems and social
ills. But His gospel is effective only as it is applied in our lives. Therefore,
we must 'feast upon the words of Christ; for behold, the words of Christ will
tell [us] all things what [we] should do.' (2 Nephi 32:3.) Unless we do His
teachings, we do not demonstrate faith in Him." — Ezra Taft Benson, "Come unto
Christ," [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1983], p. 132

"Let us not grow so busy in our daily activities that we thoughtlessly fail
to 'feast upon the words of Christ.' (2 Nephi 32:3)" — Joseph B. Wirthlin, "Finding Peace in Our
Lives," [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1995], p. 238

"It is accurate to say also that, when we are living well enough, the
promptings of the Spirit will guide us in tactical matters (telling us all
things we should do [see 2 Nephi
32:3]). Once we really know the 'what' and the 'why,' the 'how' will become
clear." — Neal A. Maxwell,
"Notwithstanding My Weakness," [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co.,
1981], p. 108

"Thanks be to the scriptures. Thanks be to the Lord for his words that are
so imbued with his Spirit. You will face nothing in life for which the basic
principles are not found in the scriptures. The key is to understand them and to
share them with your family. Nephi taught the value of the scriptures when he
said: 'Angels speak by the power of the Holy Ghost; wherefore, they speak the
words of Christ. 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 32:3). It is evident
that the Lord does provide the answers in the scriptures if we will but seek
them out." — Gene R. Cook,
"Raising Up a Family to the Lord," [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co.,
1993], p. 47

"I now add my voice to these wise and inspired brethren and say to you that
one of the most important things you can do as priesthood leaders is to immerse
yourselves in the scriptures. Search them diligently (see D&C 1:37; 3 Nephi 23:1). Feast upon the
words of Christ (see 2 Nephi
31:20; 32:3). Learn the
doctrine. Master the principles that are found therein. There are few other
efforts that will bring greater dividends to your calling. There are few ways to
gain greater inspiration as you serve." — Ezra
Taft Benson, "The
Power of the Word," Ensign, May 1986 p. 81
