This chapter is a very inspirational chapter. As I was reading it I was able to understand more of how we can stand up in what we believe in no matter the circumstances.
This chapter is about Abinadi and his act of heroism. Abinadi was told by The Lord that the people were living in unrighteousness ways. So he goes into town and prophesies to the people that they must repent and change their ways. They don't listen and cast him into jail. Even though he was in jail he wouldn't deny of the things he was told which unfortunately led him to death by fire.
I feel as though when we are faced with things such as peer pressure, we should remember Abinadi. When someone asks if we are Mormon we shouldn't hide and be ashamed. We should be able to be confident even though it might cause a loss of a friend or be considered an outcast to our world. We should stand as witnesses of God and not be ashamed of this true church.
