I started this blog so that I could tell others about my experience with the Savior. By relating this experience it is my hope to increase faith in the plan of salvation as it is taught in the scriptures, particularly the Book of Mormon. At this point you might be asking yourself, “What is it that Jared experienced?” I’ll give a brief answer:
As a youth, I was taught that God answers prayer. I had put this teaching to the test and found it to be true. I’d received answers to prayer while in the military and on a church mission. However, when I was a college student I experienced a crisis, and after pleading with the Lord for an extended period, I experienced a dimension of the Saviors love that changed my life. I found out for myself that the Lord will grant blessings to a very average church member that I’d always thought were only available to church leaders. What I experienced is described in the following verses:
And I will tell you of the wrestle which I had before God, before I received a remission of my sins. Enos 1:2
Verily, verily, I say unto you, that this is my doctrine, and I bear record of it from the Father; and whoso believeth in me believeth in the Father also; and unto him will the Father bear record of me, for he will visit him with fire and with the Holy Ghost.
3 Nephi 11:35
These scriptures used to be words on a page, but now they tell about something I know first-hand.
This blog is dedicated to helping members of the Mormon church understand the doctrine of Christ as taught in the Book of Mormon.
