The Power of God Unto Man Today

We are separated from God both physical and spiritual. Would it be nice to have God come down from heaven to teach us, to lead us,  and to baptism us. There wouldn't any question about if he had authority to do it. He is God the source of power in the universe. But sad that isn't  the case, we must walk by faith in this life.

The question is if God loves us, how can he teach us, lead us, and do ordinances of the gospel for us if he isn't here.  This is where the miracle of the priesthood comes in. The priesthood is the authority to act in God’s name. To  say God isn't here but cause i have the priesthood i can take his place. To fill the gap between God and men. Though time God gave the priesthood to prophet though heaven messagers . The priesthood is give to other by the laying on of hands. Like when moses give Aaron and his son the permission and power to be priest.

When Christ was on the earth he call and ordained 12 apostles. He chose them, they didn't ask to be apostles. They were called of  God. In Matthew 10 Christ gives the apostles the priesthood. And when he had ^acalled unto him his ^btwelve disciples, he gave them ^cpower against ^dunclean spirits, to cast them out, and to ^eheal all manner of ^fsickness and all manner of disease.

In the priesthood holds the power to heal the sick, teach, cast out devils, to baptism, give the gift of Holy Ghost, and to receive revelation  for the Church as Whole. The apostles used all these to lead the Church of Jesus Christ. Even thou  Christ was off the earth, He lead the Christ by revelation to leader of the Church.

When Joseph Smith restored the true and living Church Of Jesus Christ back to the earth heaven messagers once again visited the earth and gave him the priesthood.

Today any worthy male of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints may hold and use the priesthood. An unbroken chain of priesthood ordination all the way back to Christ. All are imporontant int the church , the priesthood is just a opportunity to serve other. I have see the power of God affect my life though worthy priesthood holders.

One Lord and One Truth

Their is only one true and living God and only begotten son in whom he sent to earth to save us. On other God stand before him, he is the master of the universe. The source of all light and Truth that is in the universes. He doesn't vary not  to left or to right, but is set on a straight eternal course. The he runs the world and what he requires of us doesn't change. Ephesians 4: 5 One Lord, one ^afaith, one ^bbaptism. Their is ONE ETERNAL TRUTH

We cant choose what maker of the universes is like or want he says. He is our father of our spirits, oh can a son tell his father how he is. The Father is charge, he sets the terms, its up to us if we accept the terms he as set.

The question is then how do you find the truth about God, his son, and Their gospel. God has sent messages to the earth thought out time and even to day. They are called prophet, men that are call of God, give power from God, and speak Gods words to us.  The ancient prophet the book of scripture the bible and the Book Of  Mormon. Though this book we  can hear the voice of the father. Also God Today has Called President Thomas S. Monson to be  is prophet for us to today.

But that not God knew some would doubt and would need a convincing power. The Holy Ghost the third member of the God head is an teacher and testifier of truth. We read of the power of the holy Ghost in Moroni  10:5 by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may ^aknow the ^btruth of all things. The Holy Ghost speaks to though the feeling of  our heart and ideas that come to mind. Have you have been comforter ed in a hard time in pray or at church, And when face with hard choose ahead of you had a idea come to your mind that didn't feel like your own. That is the influence of the Holy Ghost that is sent to us to guide us to truth and to testify of the truth  of it to us.

Jesus promise us if we ask, seek, looked for the truth we would receive it. As you study it out in your mind pondering on the things you have learned. Praying to God the he would reveal you the truth of all times. God speak to us in his own time and way.  I promise if wish to know if Book of Mormon is true scripture and if Joseph Smith and Thomas S. Monson is the lord prophet on the earth today. You can know for sure the truth by the power and  influence of the Holy Ghost.

Husband and Wife to Become One

Their are many forces that are pulling families apart. God wants us to be untied in heart and one mind. That is goal of the family relationship and gospel to be one with God. As we do so we will have Gods love and peace in our heart and in our home. God said If your aren't one your aren't mine.

I like to think of it like a triangle. Gods is on the top and husband and wife are the bottom corners. So as the husband or wife draw closer to God they by affect will come closer together. When live the way Jesus did and command us to we find we can overcome any difficulty or differences. Christ show us the Path of happiness in this life and to eternal life in the life to come. Gospel living and commandment keeping brings you closer to God, and as you do so a husband and wife become more like their savior. By doing so they will can become one.

As you love as Jesus love you accept the thing you cannot change and do your best to improve the world around you. Christ gave all he had for cause of God. He loved all men even those how beat, cursed, killed him. Should try to emulated that love in  our life.

Christ taught draw near unto me  and i will draw near to you. Also no one gets to father but though me. That means if you want God influence in your life you got that the first step toward Christ. Christ waiting to receive us, he want force and any man to come to him, its up to us. So He stand with open arms waiting to receive you with love and support. Take step to Christ by meeting with the missionaries. i Have seen life change, people become better by our message. I know if  you listen and apply the missionaries message you will achieve some deepest desire our you heart by coming to Christ. When you come to Christ it full your life with joy and meaning, peace of mind in uncertain times, i have seen family saved at were about to fall apart, and most importantly though Christ atonement He can remove the guilt and shame from your heart.

If you want this thing in your life meet with the missionaries, read the Book of Mormon, visit us on Sunday at one of our worship serves all are invited, go to mormon.org, pray with all energy of heart for help to God. and prepare to baptised by some one that hold the authority of God. I know as to do you thing you will feel deeper love For God, our Savior, and your family.

What is After the Grave

Does God have a Plan for Me?

Why i am here and what do i need to do?

Is death the end?

What is after i die?

Will i is see my loved ones that past away again?

Were is heaven and what will it be like?

 

We all have experienced death in our life. It painful for your heart to see the ones we love the most to leave is mortal life. Who when faces the darkness of death and suffering can wonder what is belong the grave? Is their more, does what i do in this life really matter? Lastly if their was a God why he let them die or suffer like they did.

 

I testify that death is not the end, and this greats truths have been revealed to us by prophets last and prophets today.

 

The Body is made of the flesh the part we see and feel, but all man are born with a spirit or soul. God is Father and Creator of our spirits. When we die our body goes into the grave, But our spirit goes to spirit world. This truth is lost to many church is is plain taught in  1 Peter 3 18For Christ also hath once ^asuffered for sins, the just for the ^bunjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to ^cdeath in the flesh, but quickened by the ^dSpirit: 19By which also he went and ^apreached unto the ^bspirits in ^cprison; 20^aWhich sometime were ^bdisobedient, when once the ^clongsuffering of God waited in the days of ^dNoah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were ^esaved by ^fwater. We  Christ died  he did nit go to heaven  he went to spirit prison their he taught the gospel to spirits that didn't have a opportunity to hear the gospel or were disobedient. In the spirit world we are same people and have all our memories of this life. Here is a time for to learn and accept Jesus Christ. Also to prepare to meet God.

 

We all from the fall of Adam it bought pain, suffering, and death into world. Christ atonement the event take makes is possible for us to overcome the negative things of life. Christ the pain, sickness, and afflictions of all men. Even death in self was broken.  Making it so that all men may be  resurrected. we learn of the Resurrection in Alma 11  42  Now, there is a death which is called a temporal death; and the death of Christ shall loose the ^abands of this temporal death, that all shall be raised from this temporal death.

 43The spirit and the body shall be ^areunited again in its ^bperfect form; both limb and joint shall be restored to its proper frame, even as we now are at this time; and we shall be brought to stand before God, ^cknowing even as we know now, and have a bright ^drecollection of all our ^eguilt.  All will be resurrected having  perfect and immortal bodies like the savior. After the Resurrection we will brought to stand before God to be judged.

We will judged by Christ according to  our works  and desires on this earth. We all sin, the purpose of life is to come free of our sins so we can be clean before God. 3 nephi 27 19 And ^ano unclean thing can enter into his kingdom; therefore nothing entereth into his ^brest save it be those who have ^cwashed their garments in my blood, because of their faith, and the repentance of all their sins, and their faithfulness unto the end. To be with God we must come free of sin by our faith and repentance.  Because every one's works and desires vary, heaven includes different kingdoms,or degrees of glory depending upon what we up into it.

This what we Cal the three degree of  Glory's. Which we learn in 1 Corinthians 15 40^aThere are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the ^bcelestial is one, and the glory of the ^cterrestrial is another. 41There is one glory of the ^asun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the ^bstars: for one star ^cdiffereth from another star in ^dglory. 42So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in ^acorruption; it is raised in incorruption:

• Celestial Glory its for those that live faithful to Christ Gospel tough out their lives. There by receive the highest glory and to be in Heavenly Father presence

• Terrestrail Glory. For those that refused the gospel  but live honorable lives.

•  Telestial Glory. For those that continued to sin  and didn't repent

All receive glory but it variety according to us. Only in the Celestial Glory can  you be in Heavenly Father  presence and receive a fullness of joy.

Why are We All Here

Does God have a Plan for Me?

Why i am here and what do i need to do?

Is death the end?

 

Babies are born  and people dies almost ever hour on this earth. Is it all by roll of the die, or is their something bigger as work belong then what we can see with our mortal eyes. Their is a God and he lives, he has plan for for us the plan of salvation.  It as been made know to  us by the prophets of the past and prophets today.

 

When Adam and eve were cast of the garden we were then able to have children starting the human family. Like them we all have the power to choose. It up to us to follow Gods plan and have happiness or reject and suffer.

  

 When we were born, we forgot our pre-earth life, which means we have to live by faith rather than our memory of God. To help us through life, God promised that His Spirit would guide and strengthen us. Each time we feel the quiet comfort of His Spirit, we know that God loves us and cares about us.

 

Our life on this earth just small moment in Gods eternal plan for us. Cause the fall of Adam we all born into a fallen state.Which separates us form God presences, suffer physical death and pain, but also spiritual death and suffer cause of ours sins. Thou are are fallen and broken God has provide a power and savior that can rise us up. John 3: 16  For ^aGod so ^bloved the ^cworld, that he ^dgave his ^eonly begotten ^fSon, that whosoever ^gbelieveth in him should not perish, but have ^heverlasting ⁱlife. Jesus came into the world of suffer and die for us, this act is called the atonement. It is way to make us one with God again. To over come spiritual death by our sins and  physical death.  the shedding of his blood in the garden of Gethsemane, his death on the cross and subsequent bodily resurrection from the grave, he made a perfect atonement for all mankind. All are covered unconditionally as pertaining to the fall of Adam. Hence, all shall rise from the dead with immortal bodies, because of Jesus’ atonement.

 

This life is a time for us to prepare to meet God, we are told in the scriptures that God will judges by according to our work in this life. No unclean thing (spiritual) can enter into the kingdom of God. We all sin but tough Christ atonement we can become clean from our sin. In this life we are gain faith in Christ, repent of sins, be baptised by priesthood authority, receive the holy Ghost by the laying on of hands, and live faithful to Christ gospel tough out our lives. Doing we can become clean and free from penalty from our sins. Time on this is limited we don't know when time will run out. So it is best to prepare now, so we aren't caught off guard.

 

   

Does God have a Plan for Me

Does God have a Plan for Me?

Why i am here and what do i need to do?

Is death the end?

We all need purpose in life with out it is hard to find satisfaction and peace. Have a vision or plan our mortal and ante moral existence  is what gives me hope and will to hold on a little longer. It is easy to get lost in chaos and confusion of modern life. Having a road map that tell where you are, where came from, and where and how get to the destiny.

Their is plan for us all that has been prepare before the earth was. The author of this plan is God the Father of our Spirits also call as our Heavenly Father. In  bible we read in Hebrews 12: 9, Furthermore we have had ^afathers of our flesh which ^bcorrected us, and we gave them ^creverence: shall we not much rather be in ^dsubjection unto the ^eFather of ^fspirits, and live? God is father of spirit Jesus Christ is son their work and gory is bring to pass the immortally and eternal life of man. If God is our spiritual father their for he created us spiritual  before this life. We know before this life we were spirits with God. He provide a plan for us to learn, grow in faith, and gain physical body. This plan is the plan of salvation, with was made for us to achieve our highest potential.

Has many of us know God created the world in three days. Set his two first children in the garden of Eden, Adam and eve  . So their is a lot of important thing about this. First in the garden it  was a garden paradise. Every thing was give to them and learned very little. They didn’t feel any sorrow or pain, which might seem nice, except that without it, they also couldn’t feel joy. Also they were incesaton and pure, not know good or bad, and not knowing or able to have children.  God told them not  to eat from tree of knowledge of good and evil. As a consequence, they were separated from God’s presence physically and spiritually—an event we refer to as the Fall. Satan tempted eve and ate of it then Adam ate. They became mortal—just as we are—subject to sin, disease, all types of suffering, and ultimately death. But it wasn’t all bad because they could now feel great joy. “Adam fell that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy.” (2 Nephi 2:25). This as part of Gods plan and wanted them to learn for themselves the power of choose and the affects of our chooses. Even thou they sin and fell, thought Gods plan them and us can be forgiven of or sin. And be worthy for return to Gods presence.
