"To teach doctine with power and authority, we need to know the doctrine. The Savior told Joseph and Hyrum Smith that befre they sought to declare His word, they must first seek to obtain it Then they would have His Spirit and His word, "the power of God unto the convincing of men" (D&C 11:21). This kind of understanding "requires more than casual reading" as President Howard W. Hunter taught. It requires daily, concentrated study.
Howard W. Hunter, "Reading the Scriptures," Ensign, Nov. 1979, 64.
