“Believeth All Things”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet

8. Believes all things. One possessed of charity is not naive or gullible but is simply open to truth. He or she enjoys the spiritual gift of a believing heart and has little or no difficulty in accepting the words and following the counsel of those called to direct the destiny of the Church. Because such people are believing in nature, all things work together for their good (see D&C 90:24). Like Sam, son of Lehi, the charitable person readily believes on the testimony of one who knows (see 1 Nephi 2:17; compare D&C 46:13-14).
