Scriptures Generated through Holy Ghost - They are PURE TRUTH...

A few statement from

Elder Richard G. Scott's talk in this last

October 2011 General Conference:

"THE POWER OF SCRIPTURE"

"Because scriptures are generated from inspired communication 

through the Holy Ghost, 

THEY ARE PURE TRUTH."

"Scriptures....illuminate our minds...give place to GUIDANCE...

and INSPIRATION FROM ON HIGH."

"They (scriptures) become the KEY to open the channel

to COMMUNION with our

FATHER IN HEAVEN and His Beloved Son,

JESUS CHRIST."

"GREAT POWER can come from MEMORIZING SCRIPTURES."

 "PONDERING a scripture...gives GREAT DIRECTION TO LIFE." 

"PONDERING a passage of scripture can be a KEY to UNLOCK

REVELATION and the guidance and inspiriation

of the Holy Ghost.  Scriptures can CALM an

AGITATED SOUL, giving PEACE, HOPE,

and a restoration of confidence in one's abilit

to OVERCOME the CHALLENGES of LIFE.

They have POTENT POWER to HEAL

emotional challenges when there is 

FAITH in the SAVIOR.

They can accelerate 

PHYSICAL HEALING."

"Those who CONSISTENTLY read the BOOK OF MORMON

are blessed with an ADDED MEASURE of the SPIRIT

of the Lord, a greater resolve to 

OBEY HIS COMMANDMENTS,

and a STRONGER TESTIMONY of the 

DIVINITY of the SON OF GOD."
