One of my favorite teachers is Charles Simpson. One of the profound things he said was this: OH - God will not allow you to profess a doctrine in the abstract.
If you confess to a truth, you will be put to the test to incorporate that into your life. Pick one: faith, integrity, truthfulness, love, patience, temperance, forgiveness.
OH – You must not only “know” a doctrine as a teaching but also really know it for yourself.
