SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Doctrine and Covenants 76:22-24 |
|
And now, after the many testimonies which have been given of him, this is the testimony, last of all, which we give of him: That he lives! For we saw him, even on the right hand of God; and we heard the voice bearing record that he is the Only Begotten of the Father—That by him, and through him, and of him, the worlds are and were created, and the inhabitants thereof are begotten sons and daughters unto God.

QUOTE OF THE DAY Joseph F. Smith |
|
“I believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ, because more than ever I come nearer the possession of the actual knowledge that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God, through the testimony of Joseph Smith contained in this book, the Doctrine and Covenants, that he saw Him, that he heard Him, that he received instructions from Him, that he obeyed those instructions, and that he today stands before the world as the last great, actual, living witness of the divinity of Christ’s mission and His power to redeem man from the temporal death and also from the second death which will follow man’s own sins, through disobedience to the ordinances of the gospel of Jesus Christ” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph F. Smith, p. 44).
