“You might prove doctrine from the Bible till doomsday, and it would merely convince a people, but would not convert them. You might read the Bible from Genesis to Revelations, and prove every iota that you advance, and that alone would have no converting influence upon the people. Nothing short of a testimony by the power of the Holy Ghost would bring light and knowledge to them -- bring them in their hearts to repentance. Nothing short of that would ever do.” PeopleHeartLightMightInfluenceHolyProveGhostDoctrineRevelationsConvinceRepentanceTestimonyGenesisHoly GhostConvertingDoomsdayLight And Knowledge Book:Journal of Discourses Source: Journal of Discourses
“What . . . is this testimony of Jesus, how can it be acquired, and what will it do for those who receive it? The testimony of Jesus is the sure and certain knowledge, revealed to the spirit of a person through the Holy Ghost, that Jesus is the living Son of the living God. Because the testimony of Jesus is God-given, it stands preeminent and is essential to a happy life. It is the fundamental principle of our religion, and all other things pertaining to our faith are appendages to it.” PersonsSpiritCertainJesusGivenPrinciplesSonHolyEssentialsFundamentalsGhostHappy LifeTestimonyHoly GhostFundamental PrinciplesCertain Knowledge Author:Keith B.

“Scripture will ultimately suffice for a saving knowledge of God only when its certainty is founded upon the inward persuasion of the Holy Spirit. Indeed, these human testimonies which exist to confirm it will not be vain if, as secondary aids to our feebleness, they follow that chief and highest testimony.

“We are sometimes told that we are not a biblical church. We are a biblical church. This wonderful testament of the Old World, this great and good Holy Bible is one of our standard works. We teach from it. We bear testimony of it. We read from it. It strengthens our testimony. And we add to that this great second witness, the Book of Mormon, the testament of the New World, for as the Bible says, "In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall [all things] be established" (2 Cor. 13:1).” WorldTwoBookSometimesThreeChurchTeachWonderfulBearsHolyStandardsMouthsAll ThingsAddWitnessNew WorldBiblicalTestamentTestimonyHoly BibleOld World Author:Gordon B.
