The Canker of Contention
Elder Russell M. Nelson
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Contention is of the devil; we should replace it with love, self-control and peacemaking at home and in the Church.
“His peace is personal.”
“contention is forbidden by divine decree”
“The home is the great laboratory of learning and love.”
“There was no contention in the land”
Scriptures
3 Ne. 11:29–30; Matt. 5:9
