Jesus Christ, the Savior and of
the world, continues to manifest himself personally to his authorized apostles in
our day. I want to share three particular testimonies given by modern day
apostles where they declare they personally know the Lord, have seen him, and
have personally been ministered unto by Him. These modern day apostles are like
the mighty apostles of old in the Bible that knew Jesus personally and taught
with power and authority. Below is a video clip of these
three testimonies along with their accompany source and text:
And now, as pertaining to this
perfect atonement, wrought by the shedding of the blood of God—I testify that
it took place in Gethsemane and at Golgotha, and as pertaining to Jesus Christ,
I testify that he is the Son of the Living God and was crucified for the sins
of the world. He is our Lord, our God, and our King. This I know of myself
independent of any other person.
I am one of his witnesses, and in
a coming day I shall feel the nail marks in his hands and in his feet and shall
wet his feet with my tears.
But I shall not know any better
then than I know now that he is God’s Almighty Son, that he is our Savior and
Redeemer, and that salvation comes in and through his atoning blood and in no
other way.
I am a witness of the
Resurrection of the Lord as surely as if I had been there in the evening with
the two disciples in the house on Emmaus road. I know that He lives as surely
as did Joseph Smith when he saw the Father and the Son in the light of a
brilliant morning in a grove of trees in Palmyra.
This is the true Church of Jesus
Christ. Only in the priesthood keys held by President Thomas S. Monson is the
power for us to be sealed in families to live forever with our Heavenly Father
and the Lord Jesus Christ. We will on the Day of Judgment stand before the
Savior, face to face. It will be a time of joy for those who have drawn close
to Him in His service in this life. It will be a joy to hear the words: “Well
done, thou good and faithful servant.” I so testify as a witness of the risen
Savior and our Redeemer in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
After all the years that I have
lived and taught and served, after the millions of miles I have traveled around
the world, with all that I have experienced, there is one great truth that I
would share. That is my witness of the Savior Jesus Christ.
Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon
recorded the following after a sacred experience:
“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” (D&C
76:22–23).
Their words are my words.
[...] I bear my testimony that
the Savior lives. I know the Lord. I am His witness. I know of
His great sacrifice and eternal love for all of Heavenly Father’s children. I
bear my special witness in all humility but with absolute certainty, in the
name of Jesus Christ, amen.
