“A real man admits it when he is wrong”

“A real man admits it when he is wrong.” Those are the words my mother taught me many times while I was growing up.

Too bad King Noah’s mom didn’t teach him that, it would have spared him and his people a lot of pain and suffering.

If you follow my mom’s advice you will be spared a lot of pain and suffering in your life.

When Abinadi pointed out to Noah and his priests all the wrong they were doing their reaction was to get angry, justify their behavior, lie to themselves, and try to solve the problem by killing Abinadi.

It didn’t turn out to well for them, except for one of the priests named Alma who admitted he was wrong and straightened out. The rest of them paid a dear price for not admitting their mistakes – their life.

- Mosiah 12:9-16, 13:1
