Mosiah 12:1

"...Thus has the Lord commanded me, saying-- Abinadi, go and prophesy unto this my people..."

Abinadi was called by the Lord to preach the gospel.  I like how the Lord calls the people 'my people.'  Even though they were not keeping the commandments the Lord still called them his.  This shows how much He loves all of us!

Just as Abinadi was called to preach, so many people are called to preach today!  The Lord still calls upon missionaries to preach to His people throughout the world.
