Scripture of the Day: D&C 82:3,5; Thought of he Day: Darkness Reigneth

 D&C 82:3,5
"
  3 For of him unto whom much is given much is required; and he who sins against the greater light shall receive the greater condemnation.
5 Therefore, what I say unto one I say unto all: Watch, for the adversary spreadeth his dominions, and darkness reigneth"


Thought of the Day:
"D&C 82:5. “Darkness Reigneth”
“‘Darkness’ here, as in John 1:5, means the condition
of the world outside divine revelation. It refers to
both spiritual and moral error. Revelation from God
gives light, but when divine revelation is rejected, the
adversary spreads his dominion among the children
of men.” (Smith and Sjodahl, Commentary, p. 490.)"
