This website contains stories and testimonies of the gospel by converts to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
To those who are not members (Mormons) of the church, I would encourage you to read these testimonies and ponder what is said. There is a lot of misinformation about the church, just as there is a great deal of misinformation about other organizations and religions. I would ask you to find out for yourself if the church is true or not. The best way to do that is to pray about it and to prayerfully and humbly read the Book of Mormon. If you go to mormon.org you can request a free copy of the Book of Mormon. Doing so will not require you to meet with the missionaries, unless you would like to.
Like the Bible, the Book of Mormon contains gospel truths that will change your life for the better. This book testifies of Jesus Christ, His divinity and mission. He is the Savior of all mankind. All that we have is because of His life, Atonement and Resurrection.
What is a testimony of Jesus Christ and the restored gospel?
In the October 2004 general conference talk given by Elder M. Russell Ballard, of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, he stated, “Personal Testimony is the foundation of our faith. It is the binding power that makes The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints unique in the lives of its members, as compared with all other religious denominations of the world. The doctrine of the Restoration is glorious in and of itself, but the thing that makes it powerful and imbues it with great meaning is the personal testimonies of Church members worldwide who accept the Restoration of the gospel and strive to live its teachings every day of their lives.”
“A testimony is a witness or confirmation of eternal truth impressed upon individual hearts and souls through the Holy Ghost, whose primary ministry is to testify of truth, particularly as it relates to the Father and the Son. When one receives a testimony of truth through this divinely appointed process, it immediately begins to have impact on that person’s life. According to Alma the Younger, “It will begin to swell within your breasts; and when you feel these swelling motions, ye will begin to say within yourselves…the word is good, for it beginneth to enlarge my soul; yea, it beginneth to enlighten my understanding, yea, it beginneth to be delicious to me.”(Alma 32:28, The Book of Mormon)”
