"I know
that God is a personal being, the Father of our spirits,
and that He loves His children and hears and answers
their righteous prayers. I know that it is His will that
His children be happy. It is His desire to bless us all.
I know that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, our Elder
Brother, the very Creator and Redeemer of the world. I
know that God has again established His kingdom on the
earth in fulfillment of prophecy and that it will never
be overcome, but it shall ultimately hold universal
dominion in the earth and Jesus Christ shall reign as its
King forever." Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson, p.469 "Nearly two thousand years ago a perfect Man walked the earth—Jesus the Christ. He was the Son of a Heavenly Father and an earthly mother. He is the God of this world, under the Father. In His life, all the virtues were lived and kept in perfect balance; He taught men truth—that they might be free; His example and precepts provide the great standard—the only sure way—for all mankind. Among us He became the first and only one who had the power to reunite His body with His spirit after death. By His power all men who have died shall be resurrected. Before Him one day we all must stand to be judged by His laws. He lives today, and in the not too distant future shall return, in triumph, to subdue His enemies, to reward men according to their deeds, and to assume His rightful role to rule and reign in righteousness over the entire earth." (An Enemy Hath Done This, pp. 52-53.) |
