- “Blessings depend on truth and obedience to law. Said Elder Nelson years later, “You can pray all you want, you can hope all you want, but until the law is fulfilled upon which that blessing predicated, it won’t happen.” Insight’s from a Prophet’ Life, Russell M. Nelson, Page 50
- “In the early stages of pioneering work in open-heart surgery, Russell was drawn to three verses in the Doctrine and Covenants that seemed to have particular application for his work: “All kingdoms have a law given; And there are many kingdoms; for there is no space in the which there is no kingdom; and there is no kingdom in which there is no space, either a greater or lesser kingdom. And unto every kingdom is a given law; and unto every law, there are certain bounds also and conditions” (Doctrine and Covenants 88:36-38). These verses combined with another clear scriptural promise from the Doctrine and Covenants inspired him- that “when we obtain any blessing from God, it is by obedience to that law upon which it is predicted” (Doctrine and Covenant 130:20).” Insight’s from a Prophet’ Life, Russell M. Nelson, Page 48
