Scripture of the Day

JS History Chapter 1 verse 25: So it was with me. I had actually seen a light, and in the midst of that light I saw two Personages, and they did in reality speak me; and though I was hated and persecuted for saying that I had seen a vision, yet it was true; and while they were persecuting me, reviling me, and speaking all manner of evil against me falsely for so saying, I was led to say in my heart: Why persecute me for telling the truth? who am I that I can withstand God, or why does the world think to make me deny what I have actually seen? For I had seen a vision; I knew it, and I knew that God knew it, I could not deny it, neither dared I do it; at least I knew that by so doing I would offend God, and come under condemnation. This is one of my favorite scriptures because it is a strong and fervent testimony of Joseph Smith, and like Joseph Smith I have a strong testimony of the church, and I cannot deny what I know either. The testimony of Joseph Smith is a big part of which the church is founded upon, and like Joseph Smith I have a testimony that he saw God, the Eternal Father, and his Son, Jesus Christ and they did in reality speak to him. I love this church and all this is has done for me as well as the blessings I have received from being a member of the church and being familiar with its teachings. I would invite all of you to come unto Christ and read the Book of Mormon, if you never have. The teachings found in this book are truly amazing and I hope you can all come to rejoice in this gospel as I have come to rejoice in it.
