Scripture Sunday Mosiah 29:28

Mosiah seems very political to me.  Sure, you can argue that many passages in the Book of Mormon are political. After all, the words liberty and equality are used often and a"King Benjamin" is one of the more important and memorable characters. In my personal, subjective view Mosiah seems to be the most political. 

In this passage Mosiah reminds his people that judges are not supreme. If they don't "judge you according to the law that you have been given" they are to be "judged by a higher judge." In our secular world, it often seems that some judges get away with rulings that we personally are appalled by. We should strive to remember that justice delayed isn't justice denied, and no matter how high and mighty your station might be, there will always be an ultimate judge. 

 (side note-Auto correct kept changing "Mosiah" to "Josiah". I hate you auto correct, you are the biggest pain in the ass in the history of texting and writing!)
