Do you look forward to your eternal reward? Do you know where you'll be when you die? All people die, but not everyone has life. It's up to you know how to secure your eternal position. Don't rely on other people to tell you what is acceptable to God and what isn't. Read it for yourself. The key is to ask God to help you understand what you read, then you need to read it several times to make sure you're understanding the context, the language, and anything else that might be a barrier for some people in their study. Finally, use common sense while you're reading. God has made the bible to be much simpler than we've made it to be.
Too many times we want to justify why we can do whatever our impulses direct us to do, instead of focusing our attention on what our Savior directs us to do. The temporary sacrifice is worth the permanent reward.
Share some verses that you know that might encourage someone to stay faithful to the truth.
