Our First Parents

I just had a couple of sisters from the Jehovah's Witnesses come knock at my door.  When they asked if they could share a thought about Jesus Christ, I said, "Why not," and she opened her Bible to 1 Corinthians 15:22.  Our pleasant conversation quickly turned to our beliefs regarding Adam and Eve and their necessary role in the Plan of Salvation.

I know that Adam and Eve and the Fall are an integral part in the Plan.  I know that their actions paved the way for the Savior to come to the earth, who lived and died for each and every one of us.  I am so grateful for the additional insight we receive about our first parents through the teachings of the Book of Mormon.

Though in the end the JW's and I agreed to disagree it was a fun few minutes for me as I bore a strong testimony of the truth.  Even now I can still feel the presence of the Spirit in my home.  As we parted ways I was certain to invite the sisters to watch General Conference this weekend with questions about Adam and Eve in their hearts; through the gifts of the Spirit they too can receive a witness of the importance of the Fall in the Plan of Salvation.
