In what ways does Lehi’s invitation to his family parallel the Lord’s invitation to each one of us?

Thomas R. Valletta

“Throughout the scriptures, the Lord says, ‘Come unto me.’ … These are the very words that Lehi uses when he invites his family to partake of the fruit. … Lehi is a loving father who invites his children to come unto him, just as we are constantly being invited to come unto God” (Osguthorpe, “Power of Inspired Invitations,” 3).
