Abinidi

My favorite book in the Book of Mormon is the book of Mosiah.  I love it. It gives me so much hope to become better.  
One of the true stories is about a man named Abinidi.  He is amazing.  He was called of God to preach to a city under the command of a wicked king named Noah.  He preaches the gospel to this King and his councilors in chains after he is captured.  They cannot harm him in any way until he has finished his preaching...and once he does, he is burned at the stake.  Abinidi did not live to see any success from his preaching.  But, because of his words, one of king Noah's councilors named Alma became converted, and brought so many more to the gospel of Jesus Christ.  What an amazing man Abinidi was, to be willing to die to preach the wonderful message of Jesus Christ.  I am grateful to him and Alma for being courageous enough to share the gospel so that we can have it today.
