Scripture Sunday Alma 50:22

This is a positive little reminder to be faithful to the word of the Lord at all times, no matter what the cost is. It also reinforces something that isn't talked about much-about how people who disobey the will of the Lord will be punished in the end. We don't like to use the word "wicked" in society today because it's a :: gasp :: judgement. Back when the Book of Mormon was written, they obviously didn't care too much about that. Wicked behavior was properly judged as what it was - wicked.
