Profit and learning

1. 1 Ne. 19: 23
   23 And I did read many things unto them which were written in the books of Moses; but that I might more fully persuade them to believe in the Lord their Redeemer I did read unto them that which was written by the prophet Isaiah; for I did liken all scriptures unto us, that it might be for our profit and learning.
2. 2 Ne. 2: 14
   14 And now, my sons, I speak unto you these things for your profit and learning; for there is a God, and he hath created all things, both the heavens and the earth, and all things that in them are, both things to act and things to be acted upon.
3. 2 Ne. 4: 15
   15 And upon these I write the things of my soul, and many of the scriptures which are engraven upon the plates of brass. For my soul delighteth in the scriptures, and my heart pondereth them, and writeth them for the learning and the profit of my children.
4. D&C 46: 1
   1 Hearken, O ye people of my church; for verily I say unto you that these things were spoken unto you for your profit and learning.
