Family Home Alone Evening, Part 3

Song: Hymn 87, "God is Love"

Prayer: Me, again

Lesson: conclusion of Preach My Gospel chapter 1, "My Purpose"

• Takeaway: Joseph Smith taught that the baptismal ordinance is not complete without receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost. First comes the baptism of water and then the baptism of fire. The gospel is full of "ands" like this: water and fire. They seem like opposites, but they serve the same function: cleansing, purifying, sanctifying. We need both baptism and the Holy Ghost in order to continue on the path home. We must be clean and guided. We must be holy and inspired. We must be water and fire.
