Enos 1: 14
"For at the present our strugglings were vain in restoring them to the true faith. And they swore in their wrath that, if it were possible, they would destroy our records and us, and also all the traditions of our fathers."
I felt this way today. I went out with the Sisters to visit a guy and he had a hardened heart. Much more hardened from last week when we met with him. He let his pastor tell him some falsehoods and looked things up online that were not true about our church. He did not want to hear anymore about the Book of Mormon or about our doctrines. We realized that whatever we told him would be vain, so we left early, letting him know we loved him and enjoyed getting to know him better. We cannot force people to open their hearts to the true gospel of Jesus Christ. They have to choose to listen and live it. Satan is real and does not want people to follow Christ, so he makes this Church seem crazy and false. I know that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is true with all my heart. I also know that I cannot force anyone else to believe it. We all have agency and can choose what we want to believe.
