It’s a spiritual revelation to comprehend that words have tremendous power but where there is privilege there is also accountability.

The prophet Nephi(1) was “much cast down because of the wickedness of the people”(2), and was pondering it on his way back home after having so tirelessly preached righteousness to a backslid generation, when he heard a voice saying “Blessed art thou Nephi, … for I have beheld how thou hast with unwearyingness declared the word, … and thou hast not feared them, and hast not sought thine own life, but hast sought my will, and to keep my commandments.”(3)God was very pleased with Nephi’s integrity and devotion and blessed him with mighty spiritual power, by which many were helped.
