“The future of this world has long been declared; the final outcome between good and evil is already known. There is absolutely no question as to who wins because the victory has already been posted on the scoreboard. The only really strange thing in all of this is that we are still down here on the field trying to decide which team’s jersey we want to wear.”

This quote comes from a book by John Bytheway called, “When Times are Tough,” Salt Lake City: Deseret Book. E-mail correspondence from Jeffery R. Holland to John Bytheway, 1 June 2004. You can find this book on Amazon by clicking HERE. There is also a similar quote by Dallin H. Oaks that he told in April 2004 General Conference. He said, “To borrow a metaphor from the familiar world of athletic competitions, we do not know when this game will end, and we do not know the final score, but we do know that when the game finally ends, our team wins.”  (Conference April 2004)
