King Benjamin told the people what Heavenly Father wanted them to know. He told them about Jesus Christ. He told them to keep the commandments and to help other people. Then they would be called the followers of Christ. And they would be able to live with Heavenly Father again!

Today our prophet teaches us in general conference what Heavenly Father wants us to know so we can live with Him again.
