Make inspired choices

Benjamin teaches that no list can name every possible sin. His closing counsel asks his people to watch their thoughts, words, and deeds and to continue in faith.

Quoted Book of Mormon

And finally, I cannot tell you all the things whereby ye may commit sin; for there are divers ways and means, even so many that I cannot number them.

Mosiah 4:29

But this much I can tell you, that if ye do not watch yourselves, and your thoughts, and your words, and your deeds, and observe the commandments of God, and continue in the faith of what ye have heard concerning the coming of our Lord, even unto the end of your lives, ye must perish. And now, O man, remember, and perish not.
