“Their Boastings in Their Own Strength”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet

By focusing on oneself, it is naturally easier to bear false witness if it serves one’s purpose. It is easier to ignore one’s parents instead of honoring them.It is easier to steal, because what one wants prevails. It is easier to covet since the selfish conclude that nothing should be denied them.
