The Reality of Choice and Consequence

My Testimony of Jesus Christ

I bear witness of Jesus Christ. My testimony of him has increased over time. Before my conversion to his church, (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints). My testimony was limited. The Bible has always been a great source of strength and knowledge for me. However, my understanding of his life, ministry, crucifixion, and resurrection became more clear after reading from the book of Mormon (another witness of Jesus Christ). The book of Mormon is scripture that was written by ancient prophets who lived with their people on the other side of the world—in the western hemisphere. The Bible teaches us of the life and mission of Jesus Christ and of his birth, life, death, and resurrection. It tells us of his ascension to his father in heaven. The book of Mormon is a second witness of the savior Jesus Christ. It tells of his ministry to his children and confirms everything the Bible teaches. This does not distract from the witness of the Bible but stands as an additional second witness and knowledge of his life and mission on earth. A mission that includes all people on the earth. Latter-day revelation, given by the Prophet Joseph Smith, the prophet of the restoration of the gospel, in our day, has enriched my testimony of the savior.

I testify that Jesus is the Christ. The only begotten son of the father in the flesh. He is my Lord and Savior. He is the Lord and Savior of all mankind. I love him. I bear this my witness in the Holy name of Jesus Christ.

Amen.
