And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it - Rev. 21:23-24.
"Far too many people in the world are starving spiritually," Elder M. Russell Ballard of the Quorum of the Twelve said during the April 1996 general conference. "Sadly, most of them have no idea where to find real spiritual nourishment. They wander to and fro . . . . Those who yearn for true spiritual light and knowledge can only find it through the power of the Holy Ghost. The Spirit enlightens and gives understanding of the eternal purpose of life. By the Spirit, Church members know the restored gospel of Jesus Christ is true.
"We should, therefore, feel compelled to share our spiritual knowledge with all of our Father's children by inviting them to pull a chair up to the Lord's table and feast on the words of Christ."
