LAWS, PRINCIPLES AND ORDINANCES, Chapter 16 of Holy Priesthood Volume 5

Pages 225 to 238

If the principles by which any of us attempt to save ourselves are contrary to the Bible, we may know they are man’s teachings, not God’s, for the Lord and His gospel remain the same–always. (editorial, Church News, June 3, 1965, p. 16)

Since we have been commanded not to put our trust in the arm of flesh, where can we put our trust? The answer, of course, is in the Lord, for the Savior Himself commanded, “Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. (Matt. 4:10)

Many scriptural passages make it very clear that we should put our trust only in the Lord:

I will love thee, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies. (Ps. 18:1-3)

Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them. They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded. (Ps. 22:4-5)
