I'M A CHRISTIAN -- A LATTER-DAY CHRISTIAN. I BELONG TO THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST. I ACCEPTED CHRIST AS MY PERSONAL SAVIOR MANY YEARS AGO. I KNOW THAT HE IS A CELESTIAL, GLORIFIED, OMNIPOTENT, OMNISCIENT, EXALTED AND ETERNAL DEITY. I KNOW THIS BY PERSONAL REVELATION THROUGH THE MINISTRY OF THE HOLY GHOST. THEREFORE, I BEAR WITNESS THAT JESUS IS THE CHRIST, THE ONLY BEGOTTEN OF THE FATHER, THE PREMORTAL JEHOVAH, AND THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD.

I AM ALSO A LATTER-DAY SAINT. THEREFORE I BEAR FURTHER WITNESS THAT GOD, OUR HEAVENLY FATHER AND HIS SON, CHRIST JESUS DID IN REALITY AND FACT APPEAR TO FOURTEEN YEAR OLD JOSEPH SMITH IN 1820 AND THAT THROUGH JOSEPH, CHRIST RESTORED HIS CHURCH AND PRIESTHOOD AGAIN TO THE EARTH.

I BEAR WITNESS THAT THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS IS THE ONLY TRUE CHURCH ON THE EARTH AND THAT ULTIMATE SALVATION AND EXALTATION CAN ONLY BE RECEIVED THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST, RECEIPT OF HIS SAVING AND EXALTING ORDINANCES, AND ENDURING TO THE END OF MORTAL LIFE.

I INVITE ALL WHO MAY READ THIS BLOG WHO ARE NOT MEMBERS OF CHRIST'S CHURCH TO INVESTIGATE THE CHURCH AND TEST ITS VALIDITY THROUGH PRAYER AND READING.

THE RESURRECTION OF A DEAD BLOG



 Daises from a flower garden located in Palmer, Alaska




As you can see, It's been a while since posting anything to this blog. I stopped doing so before my wife and I entered the Mission Training Center of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-say Saints in March of 2011. The last post was in late 2010. We were called to serve in the Alaska Anchorage Mission office. Jan served as the Mission Secretary and I served as the Financial Secretary. We've now been home five months from that experience and are currently employing our time in other pursuits. This blog is one of the pursuits that I am taking on again.

The reason for this blog is given at the beginning. It is very much in line with Doctrine and Covenants 88:81 - 82, which says:


 81 Behold, I sent you out to atestify and warn the people, and it becometh every man who hath been warned to bwarn his neighbor.

 82 Therefore, they are left awithout excuse, and their sins are upon their bown heads.

We Latter-day Saints are under obligation, by virtue of our conversion to Christ and his Church, to take the Gospel message to all of the world. Those who hear Christ's voice are called to membership in his Church and fellowship with the Saints. By virtue of that fact, we inherit the responsibility to "warn our neighbors" and this blog is to fulfill part of the personal responsibility.

If you stumble onto this blog, I would appreciate your comments to the things that I have and will post here. Please use the following e-mail address for all comments and correspondence:
