Thank you for reading my postings. I'm grateful to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ. The gospel of Jesus Christ means everything to me and I am so grateful for this opportunity to share my thoughts and testimony. I adore my wife and my three awesome children. My wife and I currently teach Sunday School to the young single adults in our ward (congregation). I welcome your comments and suggestions.

Q: Are the Mormons the same as Jehovah's Witnesses?
A: No, Mormons are not the same as Jehovah's Witnesses. Both are Christian faiths. But, Jehovah's Witnesses take their teachings and authority from their study of the Bible only. Mormons, on the other hand, proclaim that the original Church of Jesus Christ has been personally restored, by Jesus Christ himself, in modern times, through the Prophet, Joseph Smith. This restored gospel of Jesus Christ, as found in the Mormon Church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints), has brought happiness to millions throughout the world because it contains the fullness of His doctrine and ordinances.
We revere the Bible as well as other scriptures received from Jesus Christ. Priesthood (the authority to act in God's name) has been restored. Apostles and prophets, authorized representatives of Christ, walk the earth. Temple worship and ordinances have been restored.
It is a glorious message for all of the world! I personally testify that it is true and urge you to learn more.
