For the next year, Mayday will periodically feature headlines that witness to the dire state of the world — proving that the Natural Man* is an enemy to God and to the Good; and that all men and women everywhere must repent and seek to prize and defend the Good.**

*Book of Mormon | Mosiah 3:19 19 For
the natural man is an enemy to God, and has been from the fall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the natural man and becometh a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord, and becometh as a child, submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even as a child doth submit to his father.
Doctrine and Covenants | Section 121:39 39 We have learned by sad experience that it is
the nature and disposition of almost all men, as soon as they get a little authority, as they suppose, they will immediately begin to exercise unrighteous dominion.
Doctrine and Covenants | Section 1:16 16 They seek not the Lord to establish His righteousness, but
every man walketh in his own way, and after the image of his own god, whose image is in the likeness of the world, and whose substance is that of an idol, which waxeth old and shall perish in Babylon, even Babylon the great, which shall fall.
New
Testament | 1 Corinthians 2:14 14 But
the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Book of Mormon | 3 Nephi 11:31-32 31 Behold, verily, verily, I say unto you, I will declare unto you My doctrine.
32 And this is My doctrine, and it is the doctrine which the Father hath given unto Me; and I bear record of the Father, and the Father beareth record of Me, and the Holy Ghost beareth record of the Father and Me; and I bear record that the Father
commandeth all men, everywhere, to repent and believe in Me.
Doctrine and Covenants | Section 133:16 16 Hearken and hear, O ye inhabitants of the earth. Listen, ye elders of My church together, and hear the voice of the Lord; for He calleth upon all men, and He commandeth all men everywhere to repent.
Pearl of Great Price | Moses 5:14-15 14 And the Lord God called upon men by the Holy Ghost everywhere and
commanded them that they should repent;
15 And as many as believed in the Son, and repented of their sins, should be saved; and as many as believed not and repented not, should be damned; and the words went forth out of the mouth of God in a firm decree; wherefore they must be fulfilled.
**Pearl of Great Price | Moses 6:55-57 55 And the Lord spake unto Adam, saying: Inasmuch as thy children are conceived in sin, even so when they begin to grow up, sin conceiveth in their hearts, and they taste the bitter, that they may know to prize the good.
56 And it is given unto them to know good from evil; wherefore they are agents unto themselves, and I have given unto you another law and commandment.
57 Wherefore teach it unto your children, that
all men, everywhere, must repent, or they can in nowise inherit the kingdom of God, for no unclean thing can dwell there, or dwell in His presence; for, in the language of Adam, Man of Holiness is His name, and the name of His Only Begotten is the Son of Man, even Jesus Christ, a righteous Judge, who shall come in the meridian of time.
