We Testify Of Christ

Steady & Secure In Christ

2012-02-02T07:14:00.000-05:00

Behold, the righteous that hearken
unto the words of the prophets,
and destroy them not,
but look forward unto Christ
with steadfastness
for the signs which are given,
notwithstanding all persecution—
behold, they are they
which shall not perish.
(2 Nephi 26:8)

Prepared For Christ?

2012-02-01T09:24:00.000-05:00

And after the Messiah shall come there shall be
signs given unto my people of his birth,
and also of his death and resurrection;
and great and terrible shall that day
be unto the wicked, for they shall perish.
(2 Nephi 26:3)

Jesus Is Our Master

2012-01-31T07:12:00.000-05:00

And after Christ shall have risen from the dead
he shall show himself unto you,
my children, and my beloved brethren;
and the words which he shall speak unto you
shall be the law which ye shall do.
(2 Nephi 26:1)

Worship Jesus Christ

2012-01-26T07:21:00.000-05:00

And now behold, I say unto you that
the right way is to believe in Christ, and deny him not;
and Christ is the Holy One of Israel;
wherefore ye must bow down before him,
and worship him with all your might, mind,
and strength, and your whole soul;
and if ye do this ye shall in nowise be cast out.
(2 Nephi 25:29)

Deny Not The Christ

2012-01-25T08:47:00.000-05:00

The words which I have spoken
shall stand as a testimony against you;
for they are sufficient
to teach any man the right way;
for the right way is to
believe in Christ and deny him not;
for by denying him ye also deny
the prophets and the law.
(2 Nephi 25:28)

Jesus Is The Law

2012-01-24T07:15:00.000-05:00

Wherefore, we speak concerning the law
that our children may know the deadness of the law;
and they, by knowing the deadness of the law,
may look forward unto that life which is in Christ,
and know for what end the law was given.

And after the law is fulfilled in Christ,
that they need not harden their hearts against him
when the law ought to be done away.
(2 Nephi 25:27)

We Testify Of Jesus Christ

2012-01-23T10:42:00.000-05:00

We talk of Christ,
we rejoice in Christ,
we preach of Christ,
we prophesy of Christ, and
we write according to our prophecies,
that our children may know
to what source they may look
for a remission of their sins.
(2 Nephi 25:26)

Looking Unto Christ In Faith

2012-01-20T10:26:00.001-05:00

And, notwithstanding we believe in Christ,

we keep the law of Moses, and look forward

with steadfastness unto Christ,

until the law shall be fulfilled.

For, for this end was the law given;

wherefore the law hath become dead unto us,

and we are made alive in Christ because of our faith.

(2 Nephi 25:24-25)

Through The Grace Of Christ

2012-01-19T07:14:00.000-05:00

We labor diligently to write,
to persuade our children,
and also our brethren,
to believe in Christ,
and to be reconciled to God;
for we know that it is
by grace that we are saved,
after all we can do.
(2 Nephi 25:23)

Only Through Jesus Christ

2012-01-18T08:21:00.000-05:00

Behold I say unto you,
that as the Lord God liveth,
there is none other name
given under heaven
save it be this Jesus Christ,
of which I have spoken,
whereby man can be saved.
(2 Nephi 25:20)

The Messiah Has Come

2012-01-17T07:12:00.000-05:00

According to the words of the prophets,
the Messiah cometh in six hundred years
from the time that my father left Jerusalem;
and according to the words of the prophets,
and also the word of the angel of God,
his name shall be Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
(2 Nephi 25:19)

Jesus Is The Holy Messiah

2012-01-16T09:32:00.000-05:00

He shall bring forth his words unto them,
which words shall judge them at the last day,
for they shall be given them for the purpose
of convincing them of the true Messiah,
who was rejected by them;
and unto the convincing of them that they
need not look forward any more for a Messiah to come,
for there should not any come,
save it should be a false Messiah
which should deceive the people;
for there is save one Messiah spoken of by the prophets,
and that Messiah is he who should be rejected of the Jews.
(2 Nephi 25:18)

Come To The Holy Messiah

2012-01-13T09:35:00.000-05:00

And after they have been scattered, until they shall
be persuaded to believe in Christ, the Son of God,
and the atonement, which is infinite for all mankind—
and when that day shall come that they shall
believe in Christ, and worship the Father in his name,
with pure hearts and clean hands,
and look not forward any more for another Messiah,
then, at that time, the day will come that
it must needs be expedient that
they should believe these things.
(2 Nephi 25:16)

Stand With Jesus Christ

2012-01-12T07:05:00.000-05:00

And behold it shall come to pass that
after the Messiah hath risen from the dead,
and hath manifested himself unto his people,
unto as many as will believe on his name,
behold, Jerusalem shall be destroyed again;
for wo unto them that fight against
God and the people of his church.
(2 Nephi 25:14)

We Glory In Christ Jesus

2012-01-11T09:28:00.000-05:00

When the day cometh that

the Only Begotten of the Father,

yea, even the Father of heaven and of earth,

shall manifest himself unto them in the flesh,

behold, they will reject him,

because of their iniquities,

and the hardness of their hearts,

and the stiffness of their necks.

Behold, they will crucify him;

and after he is laid in a sepulchre

for the space of three days

he shall rise from the dead,

with healing in his wings;

and all those who shall believe on his name

shall be saved in the kingdom of God.

Wherefore, my soul delighteth

to prophesy concerning him,

for I have seen his day,

and my heart doth magnify his holy name.

(2 Nephi 25:12-13)

The Reality Of Christ

2012-01-10T11:16:00.000-05:00

My soul delighteth in proving unto my people

that save Christ should come all men must perish.

For if there be no Christ there be no God;

and if there be no God we are not,

for there could have been no creation.

But there is a God, and he is Christ,

and he cometh in the fulness of his own time.

(2 Nephi 11:6-7)

Proofs Of Christ's Coming

2012-01-09T07:22:00.000-05:00

Behold, my soul delighteth in proving unto my people
the truth of the coming of Christ; for, for this end
hath the law of Moses been given;
and all things which have been given of God
from the beginning of the world, unto man,
are the typifying of him.
(2 Nephi 11:4)

Many Witness Of Christ

2012-01-06T07:22:00.006-05:00

And now I, Nephi,

write more of the words of Isaiah,

for my soul delighteth in his words.

For I will liken his words unto my people,

and I will send them forth unto all my children,

for he verily saw my Redeemer,

even as I have seen him.

And my brother, Jacob, also

has seen him as I have seen him;

wherefore, I will send their words forth

unto my children to prove unto them

that my words are true.

Wherefore, by the words of three,

God hath said, I will establish my word.

Nevertheless, God sendeth more witnesses,

and he proveth all his words.

(2 Nephi 11:2-3)

They Shall Believe In Jesus Christ

2012-01-05T07:33:00.006-05:00

Behold, thus saith the Lord God:
When the day cometh that
they shall believe in me, that I am Christ,
then have I covenanted with their fathers
that they shall be restored in the flesh,
upon the earth, unto the lands of their inheritance.
(2 Nephi 10:7)

True Knowledge Of Christ

2012-01-04T07:28:00.008-05:00

God will be merciful unto many;
and our children shall be restored,
that they may come to that which will
give them the true knowledge of their Redeemer.
(2 Nephi 10:2)

Partake Of Christ's Abundance

2012-01-03T07:05:00.003-05:00

Hearken diligently unto me,
and remember the words which I have spoken;
and come unto the Holy One of Israel,
and feast upon that which perisheth not,
neither can be corrupted,
and let your soul delight in fatness.
(2 Nephi 9:51)

Only In And Through Christ

2012-01-02T07:23:00.004-05:00

O then, come unto the Lord, the Holy One.

Remember that his paths are righteous.

Behold, the way for man is narrow,
but it lieth in a straight course before him,
and the keeper of the gate
is the Holy One of Israel;
and he employeth no servant there;
and there is none other way
save it be by the gate;
for he cannot be deceived,
for the Lord God is his name.
(2 Nephi 9:41)

Our Great God

2011-12-30T07:20:00.005-05:00

O, give ear to my words.

Remember the greatness
of the Holy One of Israel.
(2 Nephi 9:40)

Jesus Is Our Savior & Deliverer

2011-12-29T07:16:00.006-05:00

The mercies of the Holy One of Israel

have claim upon them,

because of the atonement;

for they are delivered by the power of him.

For the atonement satisfieth

the demands of his justice upon all those

who have not the law given to them,

that they are delivered from

that awful monster, death and hell,

and the devil, and the lake of

fire and brimstone, which is endless torment;

and they are restored to

that God who gave them breath,

which is the Holy One of Israel.

(2 Nephi 9:25-26)

Exercise Faith In Jesus Christ

2011-12-28T07:43:00.007-05:00

And he commandeth all men that

they must repent, and be baptized in his name,

having perfect faith in the Holy One of Israel,

or they cannot be saved in the kingdom of God.

And if they will not repent and believe in his name,

and be baptized in his name, and endure to the end,

they must be damned; for the Lord God,

the Holy One of Israel, has spoken it.

(2 Nephi 9:23-24)

The Savior Of The World

2011-12-27T07:39:00.004-05:00

O how great the holiness of our God!

For he knoweth all things, and

there is not anything save he knows it.

And he cometh into the world

that he may save all men

if they will hearken unto his voice;

for behold, he suffereth the pains of all men,

yea, the pains of every living creature,

both men, women, and children,

who belong to the family of Adam.

And he suffereth this that

the resurrection might pass upon all men,

that all might stand before him

at the great and judgment day.

(2 Nephi 9:20-22)

Christ Our Deliverer

2011-12-26T07:24:00.004-05:00

O the greatness of the mercy of our God,
the Holy One of Israel!

For he delivereth his saints from that
awful monster the devil, and death, and hell,
and that lake of fire and brimstone,
which is endless torment.
(2 Npehi 9:19)

The Coming Of Jesus The Christ

2011-12-25T00:01:00.009-05:00

And it came to pass that
there was no darkness in all that night,
but it was as light as though it was mid-day.

And it came to pass that the sun

did rise in the morning again,

according to its proper order;

and they knew that it was the day

that the Lord should be born,

because of the sign which had been given.

And it had come to pass, yea, all things,

every whit, according to the words of the prophets.

And it came to pass also that

a new star did appear, according to the word.

(3 Nephi 1:19-21)

Jesus Announces His Coming

2011-12-24T06:29:00.010-05:00

And behold, the voice of the Lord

came unto him, saying:

Lift up your head and be of good cheer;

for behold, the time is at hand,

and on this night shall the sign be given,

and on the morrow come I into the world,

to show unto the world that

I will fulfil all that which I have caused

to be spoken by the mouth of my holy prophets.

Behold, I come unto my own,

to fulfil all things which I have

made known unto the children of men

from the foundation of the world, and to

do the will, both of the Father and of the Son—

of the Father because of me,

and of the Son because of my flesh.

And behold, the time is at hand,

and this night shall the sign be given.

(3 Nephi 1:12-14)

The Saints Of Christ

2011-12-23T07:22:00.005-05:00

But, behold, the righteous,
the saints of the Holy One of Israel,
they who have believed in the Holy One of Israel,
they who have endured the crosses of the world,
and despised the shame of it,
they shall inherit the kingdom of God,
which was prepared for them
from the foundation of the world,
and their joy shall be full forever.
(2 Nephi 9:18)

Christ Will Judge Us In All Holiness

2011-12-22T07:18:00.003-05:00

And it shall come to pass that
when all men shall have passed
from this first death unto life,
insomuch as they have become immortal,
they must appear before the judgment-seat
of the Holy One of Israel;
and then cometh the judgment,
and then must they be judged
according to the holy judgment of God.
(2 Nephi 9:15)

We Are Saved By Jesus Christ

2011-12-21T07:35:00.006-05:00

Because of the way of deliverance

of our God, the Holy One of Israel,

this death, of which I have spoken,

which is the temporal,

shall deliver up its dead;

which death is the grave.

And this death of which I have spoken,

which is the spiritual death,

shall deliver up its dead;

which spiritual death is hell;

wherefore, death and hell

must deliver up their dead,

and hell must deliver up its captive spirits,

and the grave must deliver up its captive bodies,

and the bodies and the spirits of men

will be restored one to the other;

and it is by the power of

the resurrection of the Holy One of Israel.

(2 Nephi 9:11-12)

Christ Gave Himself For Our Sake

2011-12-20T07:31:00.004-05:00

I know that ye know that
in the body he shall show himself
unto those at Jerusalem,
from whence we came;
for it is expedient that
it should be among them;
for it behooveth the great Creator
that he suffereth himself to
become subject unto man in the flesh,
and die for all men,
that all men might
become subject unto him.
(2 Nephi 9:5)

The Savior Of All Mankind

2011-12-19T07:27:00.002-05:00

All flesh shall know that
I the Lord am thy Savior
and thy Redeemer,
the Mighty One of Jacob.
(2 Nephi 6:18)

Our Safety Is In Christ

2011-12-16T07:14:00.007-05:00

And behold, according to the words of the prophet,

the Messiah will set himself again

the second time to recover them;

wherefore, he will manifest himself

unto them in power and great glory,

unto the destruction of their enemies,

when that day cometh when they shall believe in him;

and none will he destroy that believe in him.

And they that believe not in him shall be destroyed,

both by fire, and by tempest, and by earthquakes,

and by bloodsheds, and by pestilence, and by famine.

And they shall know that

the Lord is God, the Holy One of Israel.

(2 Nephi 6:14-15)

Jesus Christ Is The Messiah

2011-12-15T07:12:00.008-05:00

And the people of the Lord shall not be ashamed.

For the people of the Lord are they who wait for him;
for they still wait for the coming of the Messiah.
(2 Nephi 6:13)

Our Merciful Redeemer

2011-12-14T07:09:00.004-05:00

that when they shall come
to the knowledge of their Redeemer,
they shall be gathered together again
to the lands of their inheritance.

and stiffened their necks
against the Holy One of Israel,
behold, the judgments of
the Holy One of Israel
shall come upon them.
(2 Nephi 6:10)

He Is Rejected

2011-12-12T07:16:00.003-05:00

The Lord has shown unto me
that the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel,
should manifest himself unto them in the flesh;
and after he should manifest himself
they should scourge him and crucify him,
according to the words of
the angel who spake it unto me.
(2 Nephi 6:9)

Jesus Christ Is Our Light

2011-12-09T07:10:00.003-05:00

The Messiah should be made manifest
unto them in the latter days,
in the spirit of power,
unto the bringing of them
out of darkness unto light—
yea, out of hidden darkness
and out of captivity unto freedom.
(2 Nephi 3:5)

True To The Christ

2011-12-08T06:13:00.009-05:00

And now I would that ye should
look to the great Mediator, and
hearken unto his great commandments;
and be faithful unto his words,
and choose eternal life,
according to the will of his Holy Spirit.
(2 Nephi 2:28)

True Freedom Through Christ

2011-12-07T07:10:00.004-05:00

The Messiah cometh in the fulness of time,

that he may redeem the children of men from the fall.

And because that they are redeemed from the fall

they have become free forever, knowing good from evil;

to act for themselves and not to be acted upon,

save it be by the punishment of the law

at the great and last day, according to

the commandments which God hath given.

Wherefore, men are free according to the flesh;

and all things are given them which are expedient unto man.

And they are free to choose liberty and eternal life,

through the great Mediator of all men,

or to choose captivity and death,

according to the captivity and power of the devil.

(2 Nephi 2:26-27)

Salvation Is Only In Christ

2011-12-06T07:20:00.005-05:00

How great the importance

to make these things known

unto the inhabitants of the earth,

that they may know that

there is no flesh that can

dwell in the presence of God,

save it be through the merits,

and mercy, and grace of the Holy Messiah,

who layeth down his life according to the flesh,

and taketh it again by the power of the Spirit,

that he may bring to pass

the resurrection of the dead,

being the first that should rise.

Wherefore, he is the firstfruits unto God,

inasmuch as he shall make intercession

for all the children of men; and they

that believe in him shall be saved.

(2 Nephi 2:8-9)

Jesus Is Our Redeemer

2011-12-05T09:20:00.000-05:00

Redemption cometh in and through the

Holy Messiah; for he is full of grace and truth.

Behold, he offereth himself a sacrifice for sin,

to answer the ends of the law,

unto all those who have

a broken heart and a contrite spirit;

and unto none else

can the ends of the law be answered.

(2 Nephi 2:6-7)

Christ's Blessings Come To All

2011-12-02T07:20:00.000-05:00

I know that thou art redeemed,
because of the righteousness of thy Redeemer;

unto whom he shall minister in the flesh.

And because of the righteousness of his people,
Satan has no power; wherefore,
he cannot be loosed for the space of many years;

for they dwell in righteousness,
and the Holy One of Israel reigneth.
(1 Nephi 22:26)

Jesus Christ Is Our Shepherd

2011-11-28T06:49:00.003-05:00

And the time cometh speedily that
the righteous must be led up as calves of the stall,
and the Holy One of Israel must reign
in dominion, and might, and power, and great glory.

And he gathereth his children from

the four quarters of the earth;

and he numbereth his sheep, and they know him;

and there shall be one fold and one shepherd;

and he shall feed his sheep,

and in him they shall find pasture.

(1 Nephi 22:24-25)

Jesus Is The Holy One Of Israel

2011-11-25T07:11:00.004-05:00

And the Lord will surely prepare a way for his people,

unto the fulfilling of the words of Moses,

which he spake, saying: A prophet shall the Lord your God

raise up unto you, like unto me; him shall ye hear

in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.

And it shall come to pass that all those

who will not hear that prophet

shall be cut off from among the people.

And now I declare unto you, that this prophet

of whom Moses spake was the Holy One of Israel;

wherefore, he shall execute judgment in righteousness.

(1 Nephi 22:20-21)

Incline Yourself Unto Christ

2011-11-24T07:08:00.001-05:00

Behold, I say unto you, that these things must shortly come;
yea, even blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke must come;
and it must needs be upon the face of this earth;
and it cometh unto men according to the flesh
if it so be that they will harden their hearts
against the Holy One of Israel.
(1 Nephi 22:18)

Into The Light Of Christ

2011-11-23T07:04:00.005-05:00

They shall be brought
out of obscurity
and out of darkness;
and they shall know that
the Lord is their Savior
and their Redeemer,
the Mighty One of Israel.
(1 Nephi 22:12)

Lean Unto Christ

2011-11-22T07:47:00.003-05:00

They have been led away,
and shall hereafter be scattered
and be confounded,
because of the Holy One of Israel;
for against him will they
harden their hearts.
(1 Nephi 22:5)

Isaiah Testified Of Christ

2011-11-21T10:46:00.000-05:00

But that I might more fully persuade them
to believe in the Lord their Redeemer
I did read unto them that which was
written by the prophet Isaiah.
(1 Nephi 19:23)

Always Remember Jesus

2011-11-18T09:38:00.000-05:00

I have written these things unto my people,
that perhaps I might persuade them
that they would remember
the Lord their Redeemer.
(1 Nephi 19:18)

Jesus Christ Is Merciful

2011-11-17T07:04:00.000-05:00

When that day cometh, saith the prophet,
that they no more turn aside their hearts
against the Holy One of Israel,
then will he remember the covenants
which he made to their fathers.
(1 Nephi 19:15)

Signs Of Christ's Sacrifice

2011-11-16T13:55:00.000-05:00

And the God of our fathers,

who were led out of Egypt,

out of bondage, and also were

preserved in the wilderness by him,

yea, the God of Abraham, and of Isaac,

and the God of Jacob,

yieldeth himself, according to the words of the angel,

as a man, into the hands of wicked men,

to be lifted up, according to the words of Zenock,

and to be crucified, according to the words of Neum,

and to be buried in a sepulchre,

according to the words of Zenos,

which he spake concerning the three days of darkness,

which should be a sign given of his death

unto those who should inhabit the isles of the sea,

more especially given unto those

who are of the house of Israel.

For thus spake the prophet: The Lord God surely

shall visit all the house of Israel at that day,

some with his voice, because of their righteousness,

unto their great joy and salvation,

and others with the thunderings and the lightnings of his power,

by tempest, by fire, and by smoke, and vapor of darkness,

and by the opening of the earth,

and by mountains which shall be carried up.

And all these things must surely come, saith the prophet Zenos.

And the rocks of the earth must rend;

and because of the groanings of the earth,

many of the kings of the isles of the sea

shall be wrought upon by the Spirit of God,

to exclaim: The God of nature suffers.

(1 Nephi 19:10-12)

Christ's Loving Kindness

2011-11-15T11:48:00.000-05:00

Yea, even the very God of Israel

do men trample under their feet;

I say, trample under their feet

but I would speak in other words—

they set him at naught, and

hearken not to the voice of his counsels.

And behold he cometh,

according to the words of the angel,

in six hundred years from

the time my father left Jerusalem.

And the world, because of their iniquity,

shall judge him to be a thing of naught;

wherefore they scourge him, and he suffereth it;

and they smite him, and he suffereth it.

Yea, they spit upon him, and he suffereth it,

because of his loving kindness and

his long-suffering towards the children of men.

Unto The True Knowledge Of Christ

2011-11-14T09:46:00.000-05:00

In the latter days, many generations
after the Messiah shall be manifested
in body unto the children of men,
then shall the fulness
of the gospel of the Messiah
come unto the Gentiles,
and from the Gentiles
unto the remnant of our seed—

And at that day shall the remnant of our seed

know that they are of the house of Israel,

and that they are the covenant people of the Lord;

and then shall they know and

come to the knowledge of their forefathers,

and also to the knowledge of

the gospel of their Redeemer,

which was ministered unto their fathers by him;

wherefore, they shall come to the knowledge of

their Redeemer and the very points of his doctrine,

that they may know how to

come unto him and be saved.

And then at that day will they not rejoice
and give praise unto their everlasting God,
their rock and their salvation?

Yea, at that day, will they not receive the strength
and nourishment from the true vine?
(1 Nephi 15:13-15)

to come forth in their purity,

from the Gentiles unto them,

unto the convincing of the Gentiles

and the remnant of the seed of my brethren,

and also the Jews who were scattered

upon all the face of the earth,

which thou hast seen among the Gentiles,

shall establish the truth of the first,

and shall make known the plain and precious things

which have been taken away from them;

and shall make known to all kindreds, tongues, and people,

and the Savior of the world;

and that all men must come unto him,

or they cannot be saved.

And they must come according to the words
