A verse in the Old Testament tells us that those who lift themselves up in pride are not upright, but the just will live by faith. Hab. 2: 4 "Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith."
In the D&C we read that it is impossible for a man to be saved in ignorance. A simple truth. We need knowledge and understanding. D&C 131: 6 "It is impossible for a man to be saved in ignorance."
A verse with a thought booklet prophetically proclaims the birth of the Messiah. Whenever I read this scripture the music from "The Messiah" comes to mind, as Handel used this verse in such an inspiring hymn of praise. Isa. 9: 6 "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace."
