"They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.
Wherefore, the things of all nations shall be made known; yea, all things shall be made known unto the children of men.
There is nothing which is secret save it shall be revealed; there is no work of darkness save it shall be made manifest in the light; and there is nothing which is sealed upon the earth save it shall be loosed."
2 Nephi 30:15-17
I work on a site for IT professionals, so the idea of "the things of all nations" being made known doesn't just whisper of secret societies or government plots, but of crazy cybersecurity failure. :) I like the idea that all of this revelation comes from the earth being full of the knowledge of the Lord, rather than some giant hack. However, the end is the same... the ideal shown here is full disclosure. All secrets known, including our own. I also like the idea that comes after this selection, the implication that because of this knowledge... knowing how things really are... Satan has no power over our hearts. It reinforces the idea of Satan as the father of lies, and that his power comes from deception.
Today, let's live in a way that when all things are revealed, we are going to be okay with it. I'm not saying we should publish our passwords for hackers to use, but more along the lines of getting rid of our painful secrets and shames, and of course ending deceptions and hidden things that could harm others. Things that we have to hide will eventually come to the light, so why not start cleaning up those areas now, so they can't harm anyone in that future day? Let's choose to be wholly in the light of God, and allow him to purify our hearts.
