Self-Reliance Doctrines

Faith in Jesus Christ


Trust that it is Gods purpose to provide
D&C 104:15 for His Saints temporal needs and that
(Ether 12:27; 1Kings 17; He has all power to do so.
Mark 9:23)

Obedience
The blessing of self-reliance depends on
D&C 130:21 obedience to the laws and ordinances
(1 Nephi 3:7; D&C 84:19-20;
upon which self-reliance is predicated.
Matthew 17:21)

Individuals Must Act Self-reliance is self-help, not entitlement.


2 Nephi 2:16,26 You must work. You are to act and not be
(D&C 104: 17) acted upon.

Being One
The poor and the rich must be one. All
Moses 7:18 must serve and mentor one another.
(D&C 56:16-17; 104:16; 38:26)

This modern Perpetual Education Fund is far more than just a loan program. It is
a catalyst with far-reaching impact on individuals and families, and on the entire
Church. Our prophet has made some remarkable promises regarding this process,
and they are beginning to be fulfilled.
